Bush did steal the election. I suggest you all read Stupid White Men and watch Bowling For Columbine
before you comment on how ridiculous it all is. Mr. Moore does have some good points, even though he can sometimes be annoying.

I watched 'Bowling for Columbine', that's how it got me interested into reading this book, 'Dude, Where's My Country?' Michael Moore does have some interesting points although he does go overboard. I'm on page 70 now, and I'm amazed about how much I agree with him.
Now I can't wait to get my hands on 'Stupid White Men'.

Ive heard most people say that "I agree with most of his stuff but he does go a little far". Could you please elaborate on how he goes a little far?

Did you see Columbine?
As Whitecloak, he constructs and supposrts his opinions to such an extreme level, they seem like fact.
Go see Bowling for Columbine then. You'll get the idea.

But, could you give me an example, like an indirect quote, of exactly how he does what he does?

Naah, it more blends together. I couldn't remember a quote, it takes so long to prove the point, and you have to see most of the piece of work to get the main idea. This book is still on my to-do list. You can rent either one though [ Book, movie ]; it's cheap.

I'm assuming he means he can "rent" them from his local library.

*Shakes fist*
I thought themoderators were supposed to be the ones keeping things on topic, in stead of straying them off ... Have things been reversed without anyone telling me? =P
