ANNOUNCER 1: "Hi sports fans. Welcome to ongoing series between the freepers and the socialists. Michael Moore takes the mound for the socialists. And he throws a pitch to the freeper batter. It's a slow pitch, right down the middle."
ANNOUNCER 2: "Did you see that one? That pitch is almost too easy. Freepers are going to be teeing off on that one all day. In all my years of following this game, I've never seen anything quite that easy."
ANNOUNCER 1: "Yeah. To top that one, that son of a GM manager might have to claim he's from the working class."
ANNOUNCER 2: "Uh, he did that too."
Is he insinuating that instead of this being his own project, that the government funded it and told him what to do, thereby making this a government propoganda film?
Liberals accuse conservatives of what they do themselves.
Methinks Moore is compensating for self-guilt since he actualy is his own corporate ‘fat cat’. We all live in bizarro world!
“Capitalism Did Nothing For Me”
That’s because your stuff sucks.
“So, that means I have an extra responsibility to make sure I spend my time trying to make things better for the people that don’t have what I have, right? I mean, everybody should do that,” he said.
No Michael....under your ideal system you have the responsibility to simply GIVE AWAY your vast fortune except that which you NEED to survive...anything you keep beyond what the PEOPLE decide you need qualifies you as GREEDY, having more than you really need, etc. You do not simply get to keep your millions and millions of dollars while spending your time in a way that YOU think will “help” people. JUST HAND OVER YOUR WEALTH YOU GREEDY PIG...under your ideal system that is...now under capitalism...yes, you get to spend your money and your time in a way that YOU think you should.
Or maybe a North Korean car if they make them.
When he has his stroke may he be treated in Cuba.
Yuk!
Looks like he’s ripe for the left’s obesity agenda.
Quick, send him to Cuba where he’ll get help.
He looks like a good candidate for stroke.
Hey, that's economic democracy!

The real Michael Moore Working-class hero image is carefully scripted
November 05, 2005Michael Moore's success as a filmmaker and "working-class hero" is part of a carefully crafted image that bears little connection with reality, finds author Peter Schweizer in his new book "Do As I Say (Not As I Do): Profiles in Liberal Hypocrisy."
Don't be fooled by the scraggly beard, the baggy jeans, the plaid shirts and the baseball caps, explains Schweizer.
Don't be fooled by his claim to be from the working-class town of Flint, Mich., he writes.
Don't be fooled by his various claims to have made no more than $19,000 a year, $15,000 a year or $12,000 a year before his first hit, "Roger & Me," the author says.
In fact, Moore didn't even grow up in Flint, but rather nearby Davison. His father was not the working stiff struggling to make ends meet that he portrays, but a General Motors employee who worked from 6 a.m. until 2 p.m. and played golf every afternoon at a private country club and who had four weeks of paid vacation and retired comfortably at the age of 53.
Before "Roger & Me" hit it big in 1989, Moore had already received an advance from a New York publisher for $50,000, another $50,000 from Mother Jones magazine upon termination as an editor and a $20,000 grant from Ralph Nader. After "Roger & Me," he became fabulously wealthy by nearly any standard.
When Moore flew to London to be interviewed by the BBC or to promote a film, he flew the Concorde and stayed at the Ritz. But, according to the book, he would also keep a room at a cheap hotel down the street where he would meet with journalists to maintain his image as a "man of humble circumstances."
His 10-acre, waterfront home today is on Michigan's Torch Lake, one of the three most beautiful lakes in the world, according to National Geographic. He was accused by authorities of despoiling a wetland – just like many of the greedy, robber-baron land-grabbers he criticizes – when he tried to expand his private beach……………………………………………”
Moore is a hypocrit.

Michael Moore is a paradox. A millionaire who boasts of wealth as proving his value — “I’m a millionaire, I’m a multi-millionaire. I’m filthy rich. You know why I’m a multi-millionaire? ‘Cause multi-millions like what I do. That’s pretty good, isn’t it?”
He lives in a million-dollar apartment, and boasts of that as well. “I walk among them. I live on the island of Manhattan, a three-mile-wide strip of land that is luxury home and corporate suite to America’s elite… Those who run your life live in my neighborhood. I walk in the streets with them each day” (Michael Moore, Stupid White Men, p. 51). For vacations, he keeps another million-dollar beachfront house in Michigan.
To quote Micheal Moore
“I’m a millionaire, I’m a multi-millionaire,” he proclaimed. “I’m filthy rich. You know why I’m a multi-millionaire? ‘Cause multi-millions like what I do. That’s pretty good, isn’t it? There’s millions that believe in what I do. Pretty cool, huh?”

what does this guy even do? capitalism would work for him if he actually worked... if he put out a a good product that people wanted to pay for...
Attacks capitalism, wants to keep his own personal property and fortune and share instead his "time". Hypocrite.
This massive whale of an unknown life form will sooner or later have a giant stroke or coronary that will render him a big fat blob of gelatinous goo.
Would anyone mind if I mention that Michael Moore is a fat, loathesome, slob?
Right, Michael, and I suppose you funded ALL of your ‘documentaries’ yourself.
