That is the title of Michael Moore's new movie coming out in October. I know most of you have a low opinion of Mr. Moore, so I have to ask you: Have you actually seen one of his movies? I am surprised how often I am told by people running down Mr. Moore that they have never actually seen one. I accuse conservatives of having a lack of curiousity. Heck, I went and saw "Passion of the Christ". I thought it was historically interesting and attacked the death penalty...

No debate, Michael Moore is laughable to the Right, he STILL contends President Bush was actually SMART enough to mastermind the destruction of the World Trade Center.
I don’t give a squat about MM, would never watch is crap. I would be more curious to see how long a $10.00 bill circles the drain. MM has suckered many - the things he condemns are the very things that made him stinking rich.

I don't think any righties have seen his documentaries but they sure critisize them. Like folks who consemn fictional movies and never have seen them.

Oh yeah, you are a conservative and don't think you need to watch that stuff. How can you fight the culture war unarmed?

But his movies are on the same time as Taxi Cab Confessions, Real Sex and Cathouse.

Now thaose are "Proper Priorities" as far as Michael Moore goes I would not watch it if it were broadcast free on the internet and there was nothing else to do before I died. Has nothing to do with fact finding or being armed for the "culture war" as his culture is past yogurt and well into Rotten!

OK, time to go on a limb again: I think it is possible to divide Americans into three types:
Type 1) Those that believe it is more important to save America than it is to save Capitalism.
Type 2: Those that think that it is more important to save Capitalism than it is to save America. (and I include many corporate executives in this group)
Type 3: Those that think that Capitalism and America are synonymous.
You know which group I am in.

Just a wild ass guess, but I'm thinking you're in a fourth category of folks who are socialists that wake up every morning after having wet dreams about finally making it all the way to communism. Of course, as always, I could be wrong.

We are what we surround ourselves with and what we intake (reading, watching, listening to). There are many movies, books, songs I do not watch, read, listen to because they are propaganda, demeaning, full of hate/anger, full of fear inciting. MMoore is not someone I value. He is hateful, he does not love America, he is a liar, he misrepresents himself. Why? would I want to pollute myself by inputting that garbage? GIGO - garbage in - garbage out.

Hmmm...my wife says the same thing. Yet I listened to Rush and Roger for years without ever believing an ounce of their BS. I actually grew kind of fond of Roger, even though he's wrong about almost everything, so maybe there is something to what you are saying.

Fox cable channel beat CNN by 380%, MSNBC by 247%, and Headline News by 299%. The O'Reilly Factor now has a larger audience than the CBS Evening News, 5.4 million to 5.368 million viewers (not that I am a BOR fan)

Now, jdredd - methinks you are playing devil's advocate just for the sake of debate! To this day you frequent Roger's chatroom and listen to him. I have yet to find him to be inaccurate.
