I just love Michael Moore and the rest of the libs. They live in mansions, and the only illegals they come across (if they come across any) are the ones who clean their pools. Anyway, here is where Michael Moore lives- "Traverse City Michigan": Take a look at this city in google maps! Looks like 1950's America! Beautiful architecture, mom and pop hardware stores! Clean streets, red white and blue bunting hanging from stores.

Pittsburgh will host the United States premiere of "Capitalism: A Love Story" tonight for union workers attending the AFL-CIO Convention, with filmmaker Michael Moore in attendance. The documentary, about the economic crash and its roots on Wall Street, is due to open in Pittsburgh and nationwide Oct. 2. Moore is planning to participate in a 6 p.m. press conference at the David L. Lawrence Center before leading a march of union workers down Fort Duquesne Boulevard to the Byham Theater, where the film is scheduled to be screened at 7. Oscar-winner Moore is known for such controversial documentaries as "Roger...

True confession time for this conservative factory girl from Flint, Michigan —- over 30 years ago my radical hippy brother inspired the career of Michael Moore, a radical greasy-haired goofball from my home town. There I said it. After many years of shame and penance I can now admit the ugly truth about that great pretender—the self-proclaimed champion of regular folks who peddles Marxism in his regular folk costume... -----> Read the article at the new RegularFolksUnited.com site!

“Who’s the fat man in the cap?” - this delightful question was put to me this afternoon by a younger cousin looking over my shoulder, who is just about to start at university. The fat man in the cap, as it happens, is Michael Moore. And how wonderfully satisfying it is to hear that the liberal film-maker is not as well-known as once he was. It’s telling, too, that I found myself explaining him using Al Gore as a comparison - the green crusader has utterly eclipsed Moore with An Inconvenient Truth. Interested to see if my cousin represented a...

THR: What's the last movie you saw? The last book you read? Moore: A Norwegian film called "Troubled Water." Best drama I've seen this year. The last book was "The Coming Insurrection" (a French leftist call-to-arms manifesto that has been labeled a "manual for terrorism" by the French government). I'm also reading the daily newspaper religiously, considering how there won't be any to read a year from now.

Michael Moore solidified his position as one of the biggest phonies of our times while at a recent Venice Film Festival outing. He debuted his latest sham documentary called “Capitalism: A Love Story.” Thanks to the free enterprise system, Moore has become super wealthy himself, which makes the two-hour flick a case study in hypocrisy. “Capitalism is an evil,” Moore proclaims, “and you cannot regulate evil.” According to Moore, regulating capitalism doesn't work, so his prescription is, “You have to eliminate it and replace it with something that is good for all people and that something is democracy.” Guess it...

Michael Moore: Americans thinking more like me now By Eric Zimmermann - 09/07/09 04:21 PM ET When Michael Moore's new film premiered in Venice this weekend, the activist took the opportunity to express some vindication. From the Guardian: Moore admitted that he felt vindicated that George Bush had finally gone. "The American people are now thinking more like me," he said. However, he insisted that there remained more work to do before his vision of America can be realised. "The people can revolt in good ways, in non-violent ways, for what they believe is right," he said. "That revolt has...

VENICE (Reuters) - Capitalism is evil. That is the conclusion of U.S. documentary maker Michael Moore's latest movie "Capitalism: A Love Story," which premieres at the Venice film festival on Sunday. Blending his trademark humour with tragic individual stories, archive footage and publicity stunts, the 55-year-old launches an attack on the capitalist system, arguing that it benefits the rich and condemns millions to poverty.

Director Michael Moore now wants nothing less than the complete overthrow of the modern capitalist system. Moore’s long-awaited film, which will open in L.A. and New York on Sept. 23 and nationwide on Oct. 2, is in part his post-mortem on the global financial system crash that began a year ago this month with the collapse of brokerage Lehman Bros. But the film takes on much more than the usual cast of blood-sucking bankers to make the case against capitalism, delving into unrewarded worker productivity, vultures who make their living off foreclosed homes and horror stories from a privately...

Apparently science has discovered the one force in nature that can silence Michael Moore: The Oprah Winfrey Show. With the premiere of his new film, Capitalism: A Love Story, looming on September 16 at the Toronto Film Festival, normally you’d expect to find Moore filling up every inch of media, shocking the bourgeoisie with his trademark Angry Guy Banging on the Palace Walls shtick, providing Matt Drudge with a new outrageous quote every news cycle. But Moore has been strangely silent in this run-up and the LA Times‘ Patrick Goldstein has learned that he plans to keep a lid on...

Capitalism: A Love Story, Michael Moore’s new documentary, will be release by Overture Films on October 2, 2009. Capitalism will explore the root causes of the global economic meltdown and take a comical look at the corporate and political shenanigans that culminated in what Moore described as “the biggest robbery in the history of this country” - the massive transfer of U.S. taxpayer money to private financial institutions. Moore has made three of the top six highest-grossing documentaries of all time including Cannes Palme d’Or winner Fahrenheit 9/11, 2008 Academy Award(r) nominee Sicko, and Bowling for Columbine, the Academy Award(r)...

Neo-communist filmmaker Michael Moore interviewed about his most recent and most blatantly anti-capitalist film: THR: Have you ever considered leaving the U.S.? Moore: Thank you for asking! I had never considered this idea until you mentioned it, and now that you have, it doesn't sound like such a bad idea! I guess if I were going to live outside the U.S., I would live in Texas.

In politics, knowing what your opposition thinks and says about you and your team is critical. But listening to what they’re saying about their own side can sometimes be even more telling. In the latest issue of Rolling Stone, Michael Moore insists that Barack Obama’s ambitions are much farther left than he lets on. Thus, the President has been deliberately lying to us about everything from healthcare reform to the war on terror. But contrary to the Bush years, when perceived presidential deceit evoked liberal rage and a film to go with it, Moore adoringly approves of what he now...

It’s been announced that we’re about to be treated to another rant from the ‘documentary’ maker Michael Moore. Capitalism is the title of Moore’s follow up to Sicko and Fahrenheit 9/11, and will be featuring in competition in September’s Venice Film Festival. Expect no surprises (and no balance) when Moore puts the boot into the system. It’s what people expect of him; his audience goes to his films not to be jolted, or even to think, but to have all their prejudices confirmed. You could say the same about so much of Hollywood’s output - or indeed what remains of...

The greater Los Angeles area is emitting more than double the amount of methane than previously estimated, according to a new study. A greenhouse gas 25 times more powerful than carbon dioxide (CO2), most man-made methane (CH4) emission comes from agriculture -- rice paddies, livestock, and biomass burning are all big contributors. As a result studies have largely ignored the methane coming from urban areas, and regulatory agencies have had to rely on guesswork to fill in the gaps. Debra Wunch of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena and a team of researchers measured greenhouse gas emissions in the...

DENVER -- President Barack Obama specifically profiled the plight of a Colorado woman failed by the health care system in Wednesday night's nationally televised address. But when 7NEWS started asking basic questions such as where is she from and what is her name, the administration that prides itself on being transparent wouldn't say a word. In Wednesday night's speech, Obama said, "This is about the woman in Colorado who paid $700 a month to her insurance company, only to find out that they wouldn't pay a dime for her cancer treatment, who had to use up her retirement funds to...

If you’re like most asinine leftists, you’ve probably been a long time advocate of “Universal Healthcare” without ever having had the opportunity to experience the crappy, decrepit system first-hand… Well here’s your chance… And you better hold on tight, Buttercup, because it’s going to be a bumpy ride.

Creeps who swiped a Statue of Liberty replica from a Brooklyn coffee shop last month have posted a sick Web video showing them sawing off the statue's blindfolded head. The YouTube video, which reportedly is being investigated by the FBI, ends with the slogan "Death to America" appearing on the screen. It evokes the terrorist-produced videos of the decapitations of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl and American entrepreneur Nicholas Berg.

I can't believe what a blatant pro-communist piece of agitprop propaganda. Moore exploited victims of 9/11 to paint a rosy face on Cuba's healthcare system, amongst other socialized schemes. In Moore's world, all "profits" are evil and constantly hit on the "we're all in this together" theme, meaning we are obligated to pay for everyone's "free" healthcare. A question for Michael Moore: who is going to pay to develop brand new drugs when healthcare is "free"? Who is going to pay for multimillion dollar new MRI machines? Who is going to pay for doctors to spend a quarter of a...

Here we go again. Controversial filmmaker Michael Moore is going offer his solution to societal ills through one of his documentaries. If Moore's past movies are any indication of the coverage he will get, it is sure to be a media hit. Already, Huffington Post blogger and MSNBC daytime anchor Carlos Watson is praising praised Moore's early promotion of the flick. "Michael Moore, the filmmaker, is back and this time he was taking aim at Wall Street," Watson said on June 15. "[H]e did a very funny thing, Sarah, this weekend when you showed his documentary in some of the...

Filmmaker and leftist activist Michael Moore said the demise of General Motors filled him with ‘joy’ Monday and then suggested the Obama administration launch into a massive socialization of U.S. industry to build ‘green’ autos and bullet trains. To pay for it all, he suggests a $2 per gallon federal tax. Writing on The Daily Beast Web site, Moore said he was writing from Flint, Michigan, GM’s birthplace, which he described as abandoned and emptied by the company’s incompetence and eagerness for cheap labor. “Who among us wants $50 billion of our tax dollars thrown down the rat hole of...

Fascism, or more precisely, Mussolini-style corporatism, continues to advance in America with nary an objection.The planned government takeover of General Motors, which filed for bankruptcy protection today, is just the latest part of the corporatist assault on American values. Even left-wing careerist Ralph Nader denounced the bankruptcy petition, calling it "an avoidable, crude weapon of mass devastation for workers, dealers, auto suppliers, small businesses and their depleted communities. For GM's voiceless owners -- the common shareholders -- it is a wipeout. "The Obama administration is handing over a big chunk of GM to its political allies, the United Autoworkers of America,...

The blob, which drips like honey, is between 15 and 20 million years old By Jeanna Bryner LiveScience updated 5:34 p.m. CT, Tues., May 26, 2009 Hidden beneath the U.S. West's Great Basin, scientists have spied a giant blob of rocky material dripping like honey. The Great Basin consists of small mountain ranges separated by valleys and includes most of Nevada, the western half of Utah and portions of other nearby states. While studying the area, John West of Arizona State University and his colleagues found evidence of a large cylindrical blob of cold material far below the surface of...

A 4ft jellyfish - one of the biggest to be found in Britain - washed up on a popular beauty spot on the coast of north Devon. Experts say the 4ft (1.21m) Rootmouth Jellyfish - nicknamed the Dustbin lid or Sea Mushroom - can cause a painful rash on human skin if in contact with tentacles. The jellyfish was caught on camera by photographer Peter Stapleton who is keeping the exact location secret to avoid panic. "A woman came up to me and said there was a huge jellyfish over on the other side of the beach," he said. "It...

Another 98 Afghan girls were rushed to hospital Tuesday in the latest in a spate of mysterious poisonings to hit three schools north of Kabul in a fortnight, officials said. The children fell ill as they entered the school building in the small town of Mahmud Raqi, about 70 kilometres north of the capital, teachers and students told AFP. 'There was a strange smell and some students fainted, others felt sick,' said a teacher named only Humaira. Soon nearly all the students at the Aftabaki Girls High School felt ill, she told AFP. A doctor dealing with the case said...

Survivors of a Nazi death camp were shot at and abused as they gathered to remember their liberation. Masked neo-Nazi thugs screamed 'Heil Hitler!' and 'This way for the gas!' at ten elderly Italian men and women, who returned to the site of the Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria.

Earlier this year, the committee was made up of eleven Democrats and eight Republicans. Then Sen. Arlen Specter switched sides. Majority Democrats did not allow Republicans to replace Specter, turning an 11-8 committee into a 12-7 panel. The committee has not been that unevenly divided in decades, and it's a huge advantage for the majority party. "They could nominate Michael Moore and the Democratic caucus would confirm him," a dejected Republican aide told me.

Investigators say Eichelberger posed as a wealthy business investor to take his victims to a bar or restaurant to discuss a business opportunity then slip a drug into their drink. Once the victim's judgement was altered, police say Eichelberger would take advantage of the men sexually, steal their identities and even blackmail them.

WILKES-BARRE — A production crew working with filmmaker Michael Moore was in Luzerne County last week interviewing figures in the kids-for-cash scandal. Mr. Moore, famous for documentaries such as “Bowling for Columbine” and “Fahrenheit 9/11” was not present during the filming, according to two sources familiar with the project who spoke on condition of anonymity because of confidentiality agreements signed by those interviewed. Mr. Moore did not respond to a request for comment on Saturday. Among those interviewed, according to the sources, were juveniles sentenced by former county judge Mark A. Ciavarella Jr. Mr. Ciavarella faces 87 months in prison...

Slouching Toward Columbine: Darwin's Tree of Death April 20, 2009 David Klinghoffer I've long been fascinated by the image of the Tree of Death, parallel to the Tree of Life in the Garden of Eden and cryptically referred to in mystical texts explaining the Hebrew Bible: And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the Tree of Life also in the midst of the garden, and the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil (Genesis 2:9). Come and behold: as soon as night falls, the...

Michael Moore Keeps Pulling Me Back InPosted By Michael Wilson On April 2, 2009 @ 12:39 pm In Entertainment, Politics | 107 Comments No matter what I’m doing now or what I do in the future, I’ll probably always be known as the guy who made [1] “Michael Moore Hates America.” I often wonder why I picked a fight with Moore. I mean really, I got to be a tiny little bit famous for a few weeks, stressed out for five years and more broke than when I started. Sometimes I wish I’d never dipped my foot into this addiction...

In a letter posted on his website, Michael Moore announced that he is looking for "a few brave people who work on Wall Street or in the financial industry to come forward and share with me what they know." He adds that he is looking for Wall Streeters to provide a "moment of courage, to be a hero and help me expose the biggest swindle in American history." While Moore has a history of putting together extraordinarily compelling films, I wonder whether he's the guy to tackle the massive fraud that is the collapse of the financial system and subsequent...

Everyone surely has a crush on Rush Limbaugh. That was Ann Coulter’s tongue-in-cheek working assumption on Fox & Friends this morning.

Does Michael Moore, of "Roger and Me" fame, have any credentials to be considered a working-class hero? A number of blue-collar workers, and a new biography, question his claims.Citizen Moore, a biography of film-maker and gadfly Michael Moore penned by Roger Rapoport, includes a chapter entitled, "Who is Mike Westfall and Why is he saying these terrible things about me?" While Flint Michigan-native Moore has acquired a measure of success in doing cookie-cutter films, which has given him the luxury of becoming a matinee idol by ridiculing people and making fun of important issues, just what is the real story...

Michael Moore is in the middle of shooting a movie about Wall Street and the financial industry. So who is he now turning to for help? The Daily Kos. I kid you not. Yesterday Moore posted a thread on the Daily Kos titled, "Will You Help Me With My Next Film? ...a request from Michael Moore." Here is the text of his request asking for Kossack "expertise" about high finance: Friends,I am in the middle of shooting my next movie and I am looking for a few brave people who work on Wall Street or in the financial industry to...

5:52 pm: Horizon scratches anti-Moore film By VANESSA McCRAY vmccray@record-eagle.com TRAVERSE CITY — The Traverse City screening of a movie critical of documentary filmmaker Michael Moore has been canceled. "Shooting Michael Moore" was scheduled to start a one week run on Friday at Carmike's Horizon Cinemas. But the company halted plans to show the movie today, on the eve of a press conference organized by Moore supporters to protest the movie's local debut. The movie is directed, produced, narrated and largely financed by Kevin Leffler, a Davison native and schoolmate of Moore. He learned the film would not be shown...

We will not tolerate politicians who are corrupt and break the law. And we promise you we will go after the corrupt politicians on our side first. If we fail to do this, we need you to call us on it. Simply because we are in power does not give us the right to turn our heads the other way when our party goes astray. Please perform this important duty as the loyal opposition." So said Michael Moore  a few days following the 2006 congressional elections with his usual disingenuousness veiled thinly as solemn concern for the republic. Perhaps...

Citing a lack of experience, Rep. John Conyers Jr. (D-Mich.) is leading an effort to thwart Barack Obama’s expected nomination of CNN’s Sanjay Gupta to become surgeon general. But there are also indications that Conyers’s opposition is linked to a 2007 public clash between Gupta and the liberal filmmaker Michael Moore. The House Judiciary Committee chairman doesn’t have a vote, or a formal role, in the anticipated Gupta nomination. Yet, he is lobbying the Senate and the incoming president to reject Gupta. In a “Dear Colleague” letter on Wednesday, Conyers — a major proponent of universal healthcare — denounced Gupta...

Opposition is growing from the Left to President-elect Barack Obama's appointment of CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta as the next Surgeon General of the United States. The opposition is coming for Democrat Rep. John Conyers of Michigan because Gupta dared to stand up to Michael Moore when Moore made his pathetic documentary called "Sicko," which extolled the virtues of Universal Health Care in Cuba and Canada. Gupta did a report on Moore's documentary, and he said Moore had fudged some of the facts. Here is the exchange Gupta had with Moore on Larry King Live in July of 2007 . ....

When it comes to sex, tech and teens don't make the best bedfellows. As tech-savvy teens become increasingly fluent with new technology, from social networking sites to tricked-out new cell phones, research finds the negative consequences stacking up. According to the results of a survey released today by the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy and CosmoGirl.com, 22 percent of all teen girls — and 11 percent of teen girls ages 13-16 years old — say they have electronically sent, or posted online, nude or semi-nude images of themselves. And these racy images are also getting passed around:...
