Let's not start sucking each others dicks just yet.
The moment in Fahrenheit when the right-wing women said "You are lying and faking" to the mother of the dead soldier justified the film being made all by itself.

And thats just what it is: a film. Nothing more nothing less.
Anyone who can justify their political beliefs, by watching a movie is grasping at straws. Movies are made to entertain, not to inform. What Moore does is put out an entertainment flick under the guise of a "documentary". Hoping to dupe the people into believing his bullshit.

Well he wasn't duping anyone when he showed that fucking idiot calling the mother of the dead soldier a liar. He was documenting fact.

Sucking each other's dicks? Heaven forbid they be allowed to decide whether or not they enjoy a movie without someone asserting that they are fellating each other.
Heil Alex!
To the original poster: While I feel bad for the guy and realize it stinks that someone is making a good deal of money off taking him out of context or putting slant or spin on his words, I don't believe he has a case. They took his own words and put them in a movie. I don't think he had any right to the footage, anyways.

Have you ever heard of something called a sense of humour?
That line is a joke from Pulp Fiction. Don't take things so seriously.

americans need more integrity in the style of michael moore and less idiotic litigation. michael moore is an important historical figure - probably more important for humanity than george bush and his gang of oil families who are sinking us into something worse than the crusades, worse than the inquisitions and worse than the monarchy ever was with this second term of "unfinished business" that should never have been started.

That is what politicians do..... dupe people into believing their bullshit. Moore was playing the political game. This is actually hilarious, you guys seem to be saying that we should hold filmmakers to higher ethical and moral standards than elected officials.
Im sure some people took the movie at face value.... frankly, I have never seen it, but I doubt that anyone's complete political affiliation comes directly from that movie.
You guys yell "unfair", "slanted" and "biased" as you break the knob on your television so it never leaves Fox news. All news is slanted, everyone has an agenda, and maybe a handful of those in power are people who every once in a while makes a humanitarian decision which is the greatest good for the greatest amount of people.
The only living politician i even remotely like is McCain.... I don't really like his views, but there is something about him.

I dare say that few (if any) of the people who criticized Moore in this thread watches Fox News. I can't stand Moore, but I can't stand Fox to an even greater degree.

believe me, if there is any channel i watch more than others, its Fox News. I also love Michael Moore's movies, and even that fucking tv show he had way back when on HBO, which in my opinion was his BEST work ever.
I enjoy these because of their entertainment value, and because I often get more stimulation from seeing things I don't agree with, as opposed to being surrounded by likeminded people that just agree with each other all the time. sort of like the crazy fellatio mentioned earlier.
They both share a love / hate relationship. I love them for their entertainment value, and for their "talking points" but I hate every fucking part about both of them.. fox for being the corporate lapdog, fact twisting pit of perverted journalism that it is, and michael moore for being the media pseudo-underdog, self proclaimed martyr.
I say give Alex Jones a 1 hour show before O'Reilly, and put Michael Moore where he belongs: canadian public access.

I watch Fox News as well, but it's not a main source of my news. Like you said, it is only a second opinion on the news I hear elsewhere.

Michael Moore is nothing great, from my limited (thank god) exposure to him. Alex Jones is the cool guy, and his opinion of Michael Moore is probably right. 
 Peace.
