Michael Moore’s latest fishing expedition
The left-wing propagandist Michael Moore is working on his next project — a documentary about America’s financial collapse. He’s trolling Daily Kos and Twitter in search of whistleblowers, and has posted a solicitation on his website.
I think it’s fairly safe to assume he won’t be grilling Barney Frank, Maxine Waters, Franklin Raines, Chris Dodd, Bill Clinton, or ACORN over their roles in creating the mess we are in now.
Go ahead. Surprise me.

To paraphrase Bill Cosby (”Why Is There Air?”), I can only ask…why is there Michael Moore?
He will. He is going to France to make it.
His movie ” Roger & Me ” was entertaining but, since then…The decline and fall of his relevance. I assume he will be the new ” Hollywood Czar ” To assure quality movies.
“Trolling” is the proper term to use for this poor imitation of a dirigible.
What you fail to understand is, it’s farce masquerading as satire, masquerading as truth.
I think it’s fairly safe to assume he won’t be grilling Barney Frank, Maxine Waters, Franklin Raines, Chris Dodd, Bill Clinton, or ACORN over their roles in creating the mess we are in now.
————————————-
Maybe not grilling them, but letting them spout their usual rhetoric about how it’s all Former President Bush/Republicans’ fault? Absolutely.

Going to France to made a mockumentary about AMERICA’S financial problems?
Alrighty then . . .
I feel like “punking” the fat F.
…In turn masquerading as entertainment?
Fishing…grilling…MMmmmm I’m getting hungry…
If anyone out there wants to fund movie antidotes to Michael Moore let me know.
I think Michael Moore is seriously misrepresenting his brained polemics as “documentaries”. They are truly “mockumentaries” with all of the evidence he manufactures, distorts or just plain forgets.
Yes, kinda like that Inconvenient truthiness guy…
Too many people pay attention to his dopey nonsense. They’re not too bright.
Okay, I thought it was evident.
What country did he visit for his crockumentary on our health care system?
Michael Moore is so 2004. Even radicals have tired of him and he’s desperately trying to stay relevant.
England made some good ones like ” The Full Monty ” Much more entertaining. Most of Moore’s movies have been purchased by union activist. Bowling for Columbine, anyone? Bueller…Bueller ?
Micheal who???

Right; the light bulb goes on – SARCASM. What can I say; it’s almost Friday.
“crockumentary”; I like that.
That’s assuming he was relevant in the first place. Quite an intellectual leap in my opinion.
I love a spirited diatribe as much as the next guy but….He’s boring.
I don’t think he’s very serious about this…I found him with his head in my fridge, and I’m positive there are no whistleblowers in there…
Hollywood intellectual: A conflict of logic versus fantasy. Fantasy wins by a stomach !
It’s up his nether regions…And he loves beans…
Michael Moore won’t.
But Naked Emperor News already has.
Don’t be haters–I liked him in ‘Team America’!
Oh. wait.

I guess the only “good” Michael Moore is a stand-in being mocked in effigy the way the real one deserves to be.
He is making this in france? Anyway we could make him STAY in france?
PLEASE????

As much as they love him and buy his schtick hook, line, and sinker, they might not want to let him leave.
And they are, indeed, more than welcome to him.
Did he interview Bawney’s Fwank? I understand Bawney’s Fwank had alittle action on the side that might be involved in the plot line.
Obviously he is going to try and blame Bush for the CRA in 1977.

Sure, buy & watch movies made by conservatives. Or better yet, fund them.
Liberal filmmakers have no shortage of resources to go to, to get a film funded. Their films don’t even have to make money to get funded.
Conservative filmmakers, on the other hand, get nothing, even if their films are profitable.

OTOH, if you’re serious, I wouldn’t be at all surprised. What more reliable source, as far as he’s concerned, about how things are in America than . . . any other country?
I’d like to lock him in a room with Al Gore and a Twinkie.
Two men enter, one man leaves!
France couldn’t take anybody more pompous then they are.
Jon Deaux,
Leave Barney Frank out of this.
UMMMMM – the second one leaves as a snack. He leaves again the next morning.

That would be a bottle of A1 Sauce and a twinkie . . .
One more doughnut and Earth gets a second moon.
Then The AlGore can piss and moan about the suddenly-erratic Terran orbit.
Errah, Give Al Gwhore a light sabre and at least he could stay warm while eating his twinkie . . .
TEDDY!
How the heck are you? I see the fits have not affected you much!
God, this is priceless.
I don’t guess this sorry excuse of a film maker will be able to find out who withdrew all the money from the market that started the collapse. A lot of people are betting on George Soros.
You do know that moore blames his wieght on the addictive properties of corn syrip right??? Seriously, it was one of the things he wanted obama to deal with.
Maybe it’s just me but everytime I see him I smell all types of body odor.

Proposal number 4
moores Proposal Seven: Change the Pledge of Allegiance to reflect “the America we all believe in.” Moore closed his lecture by reading his proposed pledge: “I pledge allegiance to the people of the United States of America / and to the republic for which we stand / one nation, part of one world / with liberty and justice for all.”
When Moore visits the Mayo Clinic what it really means is he’s rolling through the condiment aisle at the local Fat Barn grocery store.
Errah, hanging in there. Moore’s fork is suing hime for utensil abuse!
So is his porcelain god!
The Twinkie could take both of them.
Errah the stress in the markets Moore is referring to is his local grocery store running out of cheeze whiz and pork rinds. His doctor has recommended he drop the bacon cheese and mayo soup for a healthier deep fried butter diet.
You mean people are bored with that guy yet? Oh that’s right…we’re talking about the left…never mind.
Errah, he is my favorite Acturd . . .
Oh! My! God! ROTFLMAOUITU!
ECS
Will he say anything about the 150 billion dollar one hour run on the international money markets last September?
Or how the world economy would have collapsed if TART 1 money wasn’t injected because of that run. Or who gained the most in the election from a collapsing economy?
Errah he probably be eating from a bag of bugles and adjusting his nutsak right before the paramedics haul him away to install a garden hose sized stent to help push that red puddin around.
From what I understand, it was $550 Billion removed from the money markets in the space of 90 minutes. Not even Soros controls that much jack. I’m betting on the Chinese.
The man is an idiot. He is really living in “fantasy land”. Perhaps, that is where he should look for films…in fantasy land.
Michael Moore is still alive? I thought he ate himself to death a year ago.
Errah, that was an erroneous story, he ate the grim reaper.

Fortunately, Mr. Moore’s “documentaries” as well as other far-left films, both fiction and (supposedly) non-fiction, are evidently not very potent “weapons”, if box-office numbers mean anything. All the Oscars and long-winded political acceptance speeches in the world can’t change that.
Errah I like Moores’ earlier work such as Roger and Me on VHS much more than the recent stuff on DVDs which tends to lacerate my hemmaroids
moore needs to take a fishing trip for shark using his bare hands….
Do you just blame ACORN for everything, regardless of how absurd and empirically false it is? I know Republicans hate ACORN for mobilizing and empowering black voters, but for heaven’s sake at least attempt to keep your criticisms of it in the realms of reality!
emumoron,Our tax dollars should never be stolen from us to be given to a corrupt, partisan, race-grievance monger organization like ACORN. Which is being investigated in many states accross our country, for voter registration fraud.
hey omu, remember when ACORN SUED citibank to make more loans to poor oppressed minority victims of the evil white power structure…and who was the attorney???
oh yeah obama….
Michael Moore is the closest anyone has ever come to being a human piece of excretement. Instead of trying to destroy this country, why doesn’t he just more to another one? Fidel or Hugo would welcome him with open arms.
O.K. I started highlighting the winners and gave up…there are too many great posts here tonight! This blog has the wittiest posters on the internet, and the laughter was much needed and appreciated.
Are you really that ignorant? Republican like FamilyWomen and I were at the forefront of the civil right movement in the sixties. It wasn’t until the Dems. used race as a method of gaining party members did we drop out. The degradation of the black community can be thrown directly at the feet of the liberals, with their creation of social welfare systems the weakened the minority communities.
GROW UP KID and read some history.
GEEES!
More likely Saudi Arabia or some mideastern country. Why would China want to destroy our economy? It is hurting them too.
I thought we were discussing Michael Moore. Is he working for ACORN?
It doesn’t matter whether ACORN are a “corrupt, partisan, race-grievance monger organization” (which they are not; you just dislike them because poor black people see the contempt Republicans have for them, and vote Democrat instead), there is no reasonable way to say that ACORN is a factor in this global financial crisis. Seriously, it’s absurd!
It’s like Republicans live in some fantasy world where hundreds of years of oppression and discrimination didn’t affect black communities in massive, massive ways and there’s no need to address this grave inequity that exists as a result. To do so, according to conservatives, is “race baiting” or whatever. And you guys wonder why black people don’t vote for you.
Also, if Michelle Malkin thinks it’s singularly Democrats (or like-minded Republicans) and leftist thought that has lead to this economic catastrophe, she really is living in a fantasy world. Neoliberalism (propped up by none other than that despicable, heartless Reagan so revered by conservatives) is now absolutely dead and will never be used again. Keep in mind neoliberalism is a product of right-wing greed.
HEY OMU!
Did you ever consider people like me were repressed?
I got over it kid. YOU SHOULD ALSO.
It’s funny that no black people (even wealthy ones, even Republican ones) share the hardcore conservative view that black people should just “get over it” isn’t it?
Stop sucking on the perverse government teat that causing you to remain a victim. There is much greater satisfaction if you would return to the normal human mammalian mammary preoccupation.
you’re an idiot. so why was ACORN and OBAMA sueing citibank for more loans to ‘po’ folks? hmmmmmmm???
getting loans for people who couldn’t pay them back…in other words, moron, they ARE a factor in this financial crisis..
I don’t need to get over anything. I’m white, heterosexual and my parents are wealthy Rhode Island aristocrats. I’ve never faced hardships the likes of which many black people do. However, unlike most Republicans, I try to understand and I can feel empathy. You should try out empathy sometime.
really? I think sowell and williams would disagree with your drivel.
- Omu
Funny that virtually every black employee of my company DOES share that view. Most here also believe that affirmative action is partly to blame for instilling a victim mentality in minorities, as well as a sense of entitlement.
I’ll let them know that they don’t actually think the way they say they do, because the omniscient Omu has said so. I’m sure they’ll be amused.
you patronize them you condescending piece of… you think you ‘care’ for them..really what you think is they’re too stupid to do without your liberal ‘caring’ you want them dependent upon ‘liberal whitey’ so you can feel good about yourself.
like some bwana at a ranch…
and oh yeah jacka** omu, I’m part black, and my wife is african…as black as they come…
idiot.
– Omu
I feel empathy for those who are trying to improve their lives, and the lives of those around them. The rest? Those who believe themselves entitled, without an obligation to contribute? Not so much.
wow, right4life and I are in complete agreement.
unless you’re a liberal, we’d always be in agreement, because I am right for life…
I’m an original conservative..when most teenagers are liberal idiots, I was reading burnham, buckley, and chambers…
SOOOOOO that’s your problem. You don’t help anyone by coddling. It’s time for you to grow up and let others do the same.
GEES!
Michael Moore. What a huge waste of skin.
Not for nothing, but Rhode Island is a godawful state. I am not sure I can hold your parents personally responsible…but I kinda hate them for it anyway.
I am really glad I am leaving.
Again, in what reality are you all living? It’s not as easy as just telling poor people to behave as you want them to and “get a job”. It really isn’t that easy. There are always going to be poor, disadvantaged people in a society and as a progressive, I believe in social justice and I believe that these poor people are at least entitled to support from their government and am perfectly willing to allow a percentage of my taxes to go toward paying for that.
It’s so easy to just assume that “getting a job” is so easy and that pulling yourself up to the middle class is so easy, but it really isn’t. Believe me, I know the kind of people that just pretend poverty is a “annoyance” that would go away if those “lazy” poor people just “got a job”, and all such people need to do some serious maturing.
you just want to keep them enslaved to the government. your policies have failed repeatedly, and led to great misery, suffering, and death, for those poor people you say you care for.
I think you know this, but I think you don’t really care about people…this is all about making yourself feel good, at the expense of others…
you are flat out evil.
Well, my parents are from New York state originally, I was born in Vermont and raised in Rhode Island, spent a decade living in Houston, TX and now I live in Dublin, Ireland. So I don’t really know how attached I feel to Rhode Island, to be honest :p But still, I did like growing up there (my parent’s wealth did allow for an excessively carefree lifestyle though, which I presume would have made living anywhere quite enjoyable!).
when it comes down to it, you want the government to play god and have power over people’s lives…saying who gets medical care, who gets a job, who lives and who dies…it is like the sin of sorcery….
this is why europe is so secular…the government plays god, and it empowers people like you OMU, who get to play god…
this is why the bible says ‘if you do not work, you do not eat’ and it doesn’t say anything about ‘unless you’re poor, or victim of racismsexismhomophobiabigotry’ because government that ‘cares’ for people, is the same government that enslaves people…
