Moore yesterday. More Moore today. Michael Moore got his start interviewing an empty chair (see picture above). So maybe he's mad at Clint Eastwood for stealing his shtick. But he hardly has room for calling Clint "delusional" and "detached from reality." (Come to think of it, Mike hardly has room. Period.) But hypocrisy has never stopped the Left. We know that's Clint's performance art, interviewing President Emptychair, must have really struck a nerve. And so they want to disparage his speech as "weird" and "bizarre," and dismiss Clint as a doddering old fool. But they know Eastwood exposed most...

I think people should start to practice the words "President Romney." What's Thicko up to these days? I mean, besides 350 pounds. What I mean to say is, What does leftist filmmaker Michael Moore think of the current presidential campaign? And what do his loyal followers, the denizens of the DUmp, make of Mike's take? Let's find out, shall we? To do so, we go to this THREAD, "Michael Moore: Romney will win in November," and this THREAD, "Michael Moore Predicts 'President Romney' in November." So now let us see if the DUmmies still like Mike, in Bowling-for-Bolshevik Red, while...

Filmmaker Michael Moore took to Huffington Post Live on Thursday to offer a few words of advice: Start practicing the words “President Romney.” It’s all about the money, he said — and Mitt Romney is going to raise more than President Barack Obama. “Mitt Romney is going to raise more money than Barack Obama. That should guarantee his victory,” Moore said, later adding, “I think people should start to practice the words ‘President Romney.’” Don’t be fooled by the Republicans, he warned: To assume that the other side are just a bunch of ignoramuses who are supported by people who...

Michael Moore✔ @MMFlint When our democracy is hijacked by Wall Street, the too-big-to-fail banks and the Koch brothers, then we are ALL in chains. 15 Aug 12 Reply Retweet Favorite Never mind that the White House itself has chosen to double down on Vice President Joe Biden’s comment to a crowd in Virginia Tuesday that a President Mitt Romney would “put y’all back in chains.” Moore, Biden admirer and author of “Stupid White Men,” has deemed the backlash “made-up outrage,” picked up the tasteless metaphor and run with it. Michael Moore✔ @MMFlint When u finish college $100K in debt, YOU...

Michael Moore said on Piers Morgan Tuesday night that the founding Fathers would have omitted the right to bear arms from the Bill of Rights if they would have known how much guns would modernize in the coming centuries.

New documents shed new light on his ties to a leftist party in the 1990s. On the evening of January 11, 1996, while Mitt Romney was in the final years of his run as the head of Bain Capital, Barack Obama formally joined the New Party, which was deeply hostile to the mainstream of the Democratic party and even to American capitalism. In 2008, candidate Obama deceived the American public about his potentially damaging tie to this third party. The issue remains as fresh as today’s headlines, as Romney argues that Obama is trying to move the United States toward...

SANFORD, Fla. - More than 750,000 people have signed an online petition started by the parents of Trayvon Martin, who was shot and killed in Sanford by a neighborhood watch leader. The change.org petition has attracted celebrities like Cher, Chad Ochocinco and Michael Moore, who have tweeted their support for the Martin family. The online attention is garnering the support of more musicians, professional athletes, film industry representatives and numerous other celebrities online, all of whom are calling for justice in this death investigation. Martin's parents, Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton, have called on Florida District Attorney Norman Wolfinger to...

SUNDAY, DECEMBER 19, 2010 The Wikileak that has Michael Moore howling Real nature of health care in Cuba debated Upon hearing about the Wikileak controversy over Michael Moore and the film Sicko being broadcast into Cuba three questions come to mind: Is the Cuban health care system as presented by Moore in his film accurate? If and when the film was broadcast in Cuba was the section on Cuban health care included without edits for the Cuban audience? What did the average Cuban on the island think of the film? At this point the first question raised can be addressed....

According to Michael Moore’s tweet (and everyone on MSNBC and CNN), President Barack Obama is correct to force the Catholic Church to offer insurance that provides free birth control, sterilization, and the Morning After abortion pill — because “the law is clear” about “equal access to birth control for all women no matter where they work.” Really? There’s a right to free birth control through your employer? Liar. But what Moore is doing here is what Obama and his media minions are doing. They’re turning a government mandate that violates the First Amendment into a “rights” issue. What Obama is...

Attention, One Percenters! You can go home now. The Sundance Film Festival is not ... repeat NOT ... for you. (Except of course our corporate sponsors and super rich celebrity guests. You can stay. As a matter of fact, we'd be lost without you!) That's the mixed message the was being sent as Robert Redford opened the 34th annual Sundance Film Festival with a populist pitch on Thursday, slamming the government for failing its citizens and talking about how Sundance exists for the forgotten "99 percent."

Schlockumentary filmmaker Michael Moore said recently that America was "founded on genocide and built on the backs of slaves." This disgusting statement was made at the same January 12 Symposium on Poverty at which he claimed older whites who didn't vote for Barack Obama in 2008 were racist. MICHAEL MOORE: "It’s not envy, it’s war, and it is a class war, and it’s a war that has been perpetrated by the rich on to everybody else. I mean, the class war is one they started. The mistake they've made, just to deal with the racial part of this, is their...

MICHAEL MOORE: "They're so desperate to be elected, that [it] is more powerful than the money than they're getting from these corporations is your vote. They can't win without your vote -- and don't let the Democrats and Barack Obama play that card of 'Well, where else are you going to go?' You know? They do not want to do that. They really don't want to do that because hey saw what happened in 2000. There's just enough pissed off people that will actually go somewhere else and can cause a huge ruckus as a result of that. So, they...

MICHAEL MOORE, ON CNN: Well, "The Washington post" three weeks ago had this investigation and they said that President Obama has now raised more money from Wall Street and the banks for this election cycle than all -- than all eight Republicans combined. I don't want to say that, because if that's the truth, that Wall Street already has their man and his name is Barack Obama, then we've got a much bigger problem. But I think President Obama, if he were here in the room, the question I would ask him is why are they your number one contributors?...

Flint-area native and filmmaker Michael Moore recently placed some blame on corporations for the city of Flint’s financial woes and said the city ended up with a lower tax base and “not enough money for schools.” But Flint Public Schools has never spent more money per pupil than it did in 2010, the latest year for which financial data is available from the state...

Flint-area native and filmmaker Michael Moore recently placed some blame on corporations for the city of Flint’s financial woes and said the city ended up with a lower tax base and “not enough money for schools.” But Flint Public Schools has never spent more money per pupil than it did in 2010, the latest year for which financial data is available from the state, says Michael Van Beek, the Mackinac Center for Public Policy’s director of education policy. That’s because the district gets a large chunk of its money from the state and federal government. According to the Michigan Department...

Andrew Breitbart, famous for using the Internet to take down former Congressman Anthony Weiner and liberal organizations like ACORN, has Michael Moore in his crosshairs, metaphorically speaking. Breitbart, seizing on Moore’s embrace of Occupy Wall Street and his denial that he’s among the richest 1 percent of Americans, has posted five photos of Moore’s lavish vacation home on Lake Torch in Michigan. he blogger-provocateur also included a copy of the Antrim County property tax assessment, though with the address redacted, and apparently Moore’s “summer tax amount” owed on the property is $15,849. “No one begrudges Moore his wealth, but it...

He is the booming voice of the Occupy protests, encouraging activists to continue their battle against the wealthy one per cent of Americans. But it seems left-wing documentary maker Michael Moore has been uncharacteristically quiet about one thing: his own wealth. While Moore has denied he is among the top-earners in the country, tax records show he owns an extensive property in one of the country’s most elite communities. Moore owns the large holiday home on Torch Lake, Michigan in addition to his pricey Manhattan residence. The spacious 10,000 sq ft property is a far cry from the scene of...

Michael Moore’s Massive Michigan Vacation Mansion Beyond 99 Percent’s Wildest Dreams…

If, like me, you scanned the crowds rioting at Penn State last night after the announcement of the firing of Joe Paterno, you may have noticed that nearly all the people there were white men. The riots were about white men not liking to be held accountable. As a native Pennsylvanian, I never once considered attending Penn State University. Penn State always seemed like a place full of cliquish white people recalling their glory years of making fun of the dorky kids in high school. More progressive white people and people of color went to big city state schools like...

Amid the public defecators, the American haters, the exhibitionist masturbators, the serial sexual predators, the outspoken anti-Semites, the socialists and the misguided do-gooders of Occupy Wall Street are the Hollywood hypocrites. You have Susan Sarandon, Michael Moore, Princeton professor Cornell West, Russell Simmons, Rosanne Barr, and the list goes on. They have all joined the “occupiers” in support of fighting greed. But by any definition, they epitomize it.
