| Registered User | Er, Michael Moore's not that extreme. I'd be willing to do a comparison between him and the other pundits you can think of. People who put Moore as the left equivalent of Ann Coulter are tripping. Michael Moore is basically the left wing equivalent of Glenn Beck. "Bush sucks," "American culture romanticizes violence and we should have some gun control," and "universal health care is good" are not fringe extremist ideas. Moore does misrepresent several facts and makes trumped up conspiracy theories to make his case, but who doesn't? Moore's degree of bias is pretty standard among pundits. The two times I think Moore really stepped out of line were using that kid to boycott Wal-Mart in Bowling for Columbine and the claim in Faranheit 9/11 where he said something to the effect of Iraq having never taken one American life. Moore is a pundit, therefore he makes biased argumenents. But let's not pretend that he's much worse than all the other pundits out there. He's not calling for anything like genocide or a massive restriction of civil liberties. |

Many Americans, like some on this forum, are in denial about the state of our country. They've been so brainwashed into thinking we are the greatest country on the face of this earth, that there is no room for improvement or criticism. They are so backwards in their thinking that they denounce anybody who doesn't think like them as "pinkos" or "commies", as if we were still living in Joseph McCarthy's 1950s. These are people who will wave the American flag as our president is pissing on the U.S. Constitution. Who are more apt to vote on American Idol than the Presidential Election. Who will fight for the freedoms of their corporate slave masters as they drown in debt in desperately trying to keep up appearances. They are the few. The proud. The 30 percenters who still support Bush because "he sticks to what he believes in" -- regardless of reality. They are our sheep. | |

Yeah, thank God we don't have the greater sex and drug related freedom of places in Europe or the real democracy of Latin America where you can be elected to a high office without tons of corporate sponsors helping you along. Quote:
Because we're the only country in the world with immigrants. And "greatest" is subjective. The US is the richest, most powerful country in the world. It does not have the highest standard of living, life expectancy, or degree of civil liberties. Quote:
Real conservatives would be against Bush's many radical policies. But yes, it goes both ways. Quote:
Indeed, it was the right wing that protested the show Politcally Incorrect because it expressed views they disagreed with, and DID get it shut down for pointing out the obvious. And it's the nationalistic media that distorts the words of anyone who points out some of the less-than-noble aspects of US foreign policy. Both the left and the right do this. It's annoying that people have party loyalties that make them ignore the fact that both sides do the same thing and are devoted more to expanding their power and wealth than helping the citizens. National loyalty can blind someone's world view enough as it is without party loyalty. Quote:
Maybe you have not been affected personally by the roll back on privacy, due process of law, etc. but other people have been. Some have been tortured in internment camps without charges just for suspicion of treason, eventually being let out because there was no proof. But for the most part, yeah the US is pretty free on the world scale. Not as free as most of Europe, but it's a great place to live and it's easier to make money here than in many other countries. It's what the US leaders do to the rest of the world that is oppressive. Quote:
Mainly because he didn't BS about the state of the economy and he had conservative foreign policy which stressed diplomatic solutions over killing thousands of civilians. Actually I don't see how liberal Carter even was. He was in fact the president who made it standard to mix politics and religion. Both his deficit and his international body count were markedly lower than Reagan's, however. It's funny how the evil liberal media pretty much gave Reagan a free pass after his assassination attempt. Lying about selling weapons to Iran and using the money to fund terrorists was given less attention than Clinton lying about his sex life or Bush Sr. lying about taxes. Quote:
While according to people like you, American leaders are always noble and heroic in their foreign policy unlike leaders everywhere else in the world, they never put power interests over the lives of civilians, it's evil to criticize America but hating France is okay, we'd care just as much about Iraq if its main source of income was exporting coconuts instead of oil, and everyone in the world who thinks otherwise is just jealous of America. ![]() | |||||||

Really? England, France and most of western Europe tax more than the US. THey have more video and surveillance cameras in public spots wathcing you than the US by far. Their surveillance of the general public is MUCH more than US ever will. England and France both have legislation that gives the government the right to video and listen to you conversations for the protection of the people.....and its been in play for a long time.
