Moore was recently criticized by Canadians for his documentary "Sicko" and his suggestions that we have a flawless health care system. Our health care system is good but we have problems with doctor shortages, underfunding and long wait times for procedures. Moore suggests that we are satisfied with the system, but health care reform is the subject of many political debates here. Then when Canadian journalists pointed this out to him, he got all whiny and offended. Moore also suggested in "Bowling For Columbine" that gun violence isn't a problem in Canada. Anyone who pays attention to Canadian news at all will soon realize this is not true. And despite his ignorance about Canada, when we had a federal election here in 2004, Moore tried to tell us who we should vote for. Moore should stop shooting his mouth off about things he doesn't really know anything about, and I'm not just talking about Canada either.

The movie Celsius 41.11: The Temperature at Which the Brain Dies, exposes some of the lies of Farenheit 9/11. It's sad that people just take him on his word, which apprently isn't very good. He moved around the articles in the beginning of his movie, which were from an Illinois newspaper. He also made it look like he was interviewing people, when he just asked questions, and used what these people had said, and asked the questions so it sounded like they were giving the answers he wanted, when the people who were/are soldiers, some that he exploited aren't alive anymore. They even said they never talked to him and were appalled that Mr. Moore used them like that. That covers the untruthful part. He also lives in an upperclass neighborhood in Michigan, and acts like he is working for the working class, that is hypocritical. I hope people think twice before they just believe what they hear, rent Celsius 41.11, go to the newspaper to verify what I have said, if you want. It doesn't matter if you share the same views it takes away the validity and creditbility of the argument when it isn't done honestly.

I think most people recognized Michael Moore as being the man who criticized President George W. Bush at the Academy Awards (the Oscars). Looking at the guy, Mr. Moore is definitely a scary-looking figure to look at. I even saw a man at the airport in Houston, TX that looked just like Michael Moore. No joke.
Honestly, I don't understand why so many people act like he is some saint. All he does is distort his facts, and comes up with some Leftist mumbo jumbo. It's been known that even though Mr. Moore always talks about Bush and Cheney being Halliburton loyalists, Moore himself may have owned many, many shares of stock with Halliburton, Boeing, etc.

Michael Moore is often misunderstood. If people actually sat and watched his work then they would have a greater understanding of it, rather than jumping on the old bandwagon to bash him and support Bush (which many are known to do).

Michael Moore is often misunderstood. If people actually sat and watched his work then they would have a greater understanding of it, rather than jumping on the old bandwagon to bash him and support Bush (which many are known to do).
Of his work, the first I watched was the recent documentary Fahrenheit 9/11. Produced, written and directed by himself. The film is a work of art, and is very moving.
I am in full support of his work in bringing the real truth to the public and to bring justice to those who have been failed by Bush.
Has to be commended!!
