“It is even MORE accurate to say that ‘MOST blacks are only voting for Obama BECAUSE he is BLACK’.”

It’s more than that. Almost every black person votes for any Democrat just because they’re black (the black people, not the Democrat), which I never understood. But they must know what they’re doing.

There is also a not inconsiderable number of whites who will vote for Obama because he is black.

I have no idea how their numbers stack up against those who will vote against him for the same reason.

Was it shot in Wide angle cinemascope?

Think that they spliced the video from two IMAX cameras.

I saw that fat turd on CNN on my way out of the office... he needs to get his fat a$$ to Cuba and have Raul and Fidel help him work off the lard.

There’s only about 20 blacks in all of Traverse City. Moore doesn’t want to be around “those people.”

MOST is an understatement. How about “ALMOST ALL?”

I caught part of the interview. The part I saw Moore stated that Big Oil with all these windfall profits just paid their shareholders back 50%, a few years ago it was 30%, and in 1993 it was 1%. I’m not quite sure what his point was, because I thought a corporation paying it shareholder’s dividends was a good thing. Besides, who does he think these shareholders are? old white dudes? Does he not understand that 401K retirements, and the little old lady down the street are stockholders? That it is average Americans that own stocks, and when we hit these companies with big taxes we not only hurt those shareholders, but they pass the costs onto consumers?Probably not.

It is even MORE accurate to say that "MOST blacks are only voting for Obama BECAUSE he is BLACK".

IS IT? I disagree.

Bush got only ~8% of the black vote. John Kerry got the rest. John Kerry is not black.

Ditto Bush versus Al. Gore. Gore is not black either.

In Louisiana, in the previous governors race, they voted for the Democrat Blanco voer Bobby Jindal.

There are some issues that transcend race, this is one of them.

The Republican party has lost the black vote for a long, long time.

Even Hillary (D) had the black vote sewn up. Til she and her surrogates opened their mouths and started a very deliberate campaign to alienate the black vote. Apparently they thought the race care would be enough to put them over the top. It almost was.

I think the (D) barrier is greater than the race barrier at this point in time.

Moore was pissed, wasn’t he? To me, that’s a good sign ... it means things aren’t going well for his party. LOL!

Terrible analogy You compare Republicans vs Democrats. Dems seem to own the black vote. But the blacks voted 95% against Hillary-a fellow democrat. If you don’t see the difference, I can’t help you.

In the primaries the Dems vote along racial lines and in the general along party lines.

Was he foaming into the microphone, or did he take a bite out of it?

not really--the dems get 90% or more of the black vote so they wouldn't vote for McCain anyway

Where it helped obama being black was in the primary against Hillary and I loved it.
Americas first Black president had the race card he always played used against his wife

What the hell is with the “blue collar guys” bowling behind that pig Michael Moore wearing the matching Obama shirts? Is this some kind of cult?

The fat guys bowling behind Moore are wearing matching "Bowling for Obama" t-shirts. And CNN is giving Obama - and Michael Moore - more free advertising.

I am just sickened by this new Obama-worshipping religion that's sweeping this country. It's gotten beyond disgusting...

It’s very obvious that this whole thing was crafted to make Moore look like ‘one of the guys.’

They staged it.

But all of their fine stage craft failed to hide the fact that Michael Moore does not choose to live in a racially diverse neighborhood.

He is, of course, happy to preach to you about racial diversity. As one of the left’s priests of morality he can condemn Republicans as bigots ... from a bowling alley where there’s not one black person in sight?

Maybe they let the black people bowl on Saturday.

I would almost guarantee that they are at the very least some kind of union officials.

LOL... that's right! Obama supporter Michael The Pig Moore had better not remind America about Obama's embarrassing bowling outing earlier this year (or was it last year?).

I could only stand about 20 minutes of LKL... the entire show was carefully crafted propaganda for Obamamessiah. I've really reached my limit for all this Obama worship... I hope most Americans wake up and realize the same.

You make some excellent points. Funny how we've been using the term "stage craft" lately to describe all things surrounding the Obamamessiah. Here is yet another example, and CNN was happy to set up and run the entire propaganda piece for Moore.

I could only stand to watch for about 20 minutes, but I would bet that all or most of the questions from viewers directed to Moore were from friends of his, or rehearsed ahead of time so as to stay on message for the Obamamessiah.
