He's smarter than you
Makes more money than you
Is more important than you
Has done more than you
He will continue to do more than you

and he's fat... but at least he can lose the weight.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

someone strike a nerve?

lol...why call him fat?

"Paging Ann Coulter to remark on Clinton's chubby thighs...paging Ann Coulter"

You have absolutely no idea what a documentary is.

Objective? No person is capable of objectivity. It's an aburd suggestion. Everyone has a perspective. A good documentary takes a point of view and argues it well. That is what Moore does and he does it very well.

The idea that a documentary should be "objective" is laughable.

I like how everyone uses his weight as an insult. His movies are insightful and pretty damn on point. Deal with it. Whether you like him or not, you'd better get used to him because he's not going anywhere.

Yeah, me and the American Heritage Dictionary are clueless.

He will be dead within 5 years . . . I can wait it out.

baddog cracks me up sometimes..

Yeah, you are:

So what facts are you disputing in Sicko? If you haven't seen it, it is not the same bullshit like F911. There is actually very little about America in it, it's more about what other countries offer.

Stop being subtle *lol*

I like to watch his movies...
He tries to make people think about what is going on or what happened...
and that's not an easy task...

PS: Take a look at movie/documentary "The Corporation",
and if that dosen't make you think than you must be a total idiot...

Thank you someone who knows, I read a book on making Documentaries and that was one of the myths is that a documentary has to be fair and balanced and objective it doesnt.
Also want to know if someone is hitting a mark? If they start producing hatch jobs to counteract the work, there is a good chance the original work wasnt bullshit. You dont go after bullshit, thats why there are no I hate Ann Coulter documentaries.

So now we're judging people by their weight?
You must really hate a lot of people.

I'm not fat, im just big boned who love watching movies decaying on my couch! Natural lubeeee

Argumentum ad hominem (argument directed at the person).
This is the error of attacking the character or motives of a person who has stated an idea, rather than the idea itself. The most obvious example of this fallacy is when one maligns the character of another (e.g, "Michael Moore is a fat pig!") A more typical manifestation of argumentum ad hominem is attacking a source of information -- for example, responding to a quotation from Richard Nixon on the subject of free trade with China by saying, "We all know Nixon was a liar and a cheat, so why should we believe anything he says?"

Post of the week

Fuck you asshole

im starting to think that stickyfingerz is baddog's bastard son, they both have the ignorance gene

Im starting to think Nico makes wooden shoes and lives close to a tulip farm...

Baddog brought Bush in ...

Read the original post :2 cents:

wow... i never heard that before from you, I am just baffled by your creativity :1orglaugh

I saw him on Leno the other night. Amazing. The guy doesn't just want government provided universal care, he wants to get rid of private health insurance. The funny thing is that IF that were to happen, he'd be one of the last people ever treated if he has problems related to his weight.

Meanwhile, one of my best friends had a mass on her ovary they found last week, it was removed yesterday, isn't cancer (YAY!) and she will be out of the hospital by Monday. With nothing but a "suspect" mass, I question the people talking about how long it takes to get care here in the US.

At the same time, our largest government run hospital here in GA may possibly close due to lack of funds and horrid mismanagement.

Yeah, bring me the government to take care of me, the private system just sucks /sarcasm

Maybe you should watch the movie :2 cents:

Here we go again....

He looks like he has lost weight since his last movie.

You should really watch the movie. It may not change your position but it will definitely raise questions.

I will. But I doubt seriously it will be any less slanted than his other movies and Gore's movie - all which I was told to "just watch and you will change your mind" - never happened. I get my info from MANY different sources and most importantly, personal experiences.

But are you saying he's advocating private in addition to government health insurance in the movie but then says get rid of private health insurance during an interview?

Yup classless but hey it boosts his post count :1orglaugh

Ann Coulter needs to be shot.. I think someone will kill that bitch soon.

Please feel free to elaborate.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Even if Moore wants to abolish private insurance, I dont think any actual candidates plans include doing that.

Was pretty funny on Leno, his comment about the NBC censors, lol.


oh yeah and he's overweight.. I wonder if he realises it? Poor fella ;)

I agree 100%. His 'documentaries' are his views. You never see 2 sides of the story.

what a hairy old ugly fucker you are baddog.

If there was an ugly contest on gfy, you would be a contender.

Now thats mean:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:thumbsup

i love how moore ruffles everyones feathers and gets them talking
open up the mouths and open up some minds

when all these authoratative governmental type peoples get all wigged out it makes me wonder what they are so afraid of

LOL

baddog is calling someone else ugly?

say it aint so!

:1orglaugh

This deserves a second read.

The only movie of his I've seen is "Bowling for Columbine" and it was filled with so much bullshit I've never bothered to watch another.

anyone who hates Michael Moore, is a piece of shit.

this thread can die now.

Thats ok, even the assault weapons ban was allowed to expire during the pube lickin red herring debate over a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage.

As a country we are so over crazy kids shooting up schools. I guess.. right virginia tech? Gun laws are fine right? Awesome.

So Bowling for Columbine got people talking for a while.. but the gays..... ohhhhhh they're teh scary!

Now I'm off to open a new bank account and get a free rifle!!!

Moore's films are worth watching, for information and at least appreciating that perspective he puts forth. But anyone who sits there mindlessly eating up every point Moore tries to make without acknowledging or realizing that some of them are blatantly twisted "facts" is the embodiment of what a true sheep is.

Some of what the guy has to say has merit, only the most close-minded of the right wing camp disagree with that. But some of it is downright bias slanted agenda-having tripe. Some choose to eat it up with a spoon, others know enough to keep themselves grounded and their opinions in perspective.



Now keep this thread going. The dynamic duo are dying to know what GFY'ers are going to say next...

LOL great pic and good point! Never look to someone else to feed you an "opinion". Thats yours to form and if you dont feel like reading both sides of a debate, it's your own fault :P
But expecting some media outlets or Michael Moore to be balanced or fair (or that they HAVE to be or SHOULD be), is unrealistic.

I dunno but I know if I looked like a hobo I wouldnt be commenting on what someone else looks like.

:1orglaugh

*applause*

His body proportions aside, "Sicko" (a film that did meet your definition, baddog) flipped my view on health care. I used to oppose the idea of Universal Health Care.

Frankly, I didn't realize that some people had it so bad. Nor did I realize that there were "uninsurable" people in the U.S... including people that acted as American heroes in the face of disaster.

We live in what's supposed to be the pinnacle of human civilization to date... and now I'm being told because Joe Blow has diabetes, he's fucked on medical costs for life?

Fuck that shit. Everyone's entitled to health care.

Socialize the stuff.


As far as Moore goes... I lost a good deal of respect for him in "Bowling for Columbine"... especially in the way he treated Charlton Heston in the end - rather uncalled for, imho...

But his most recent work is solid stuff.
