Then Bowling for Columbine must have been great.

No, I never saw it.

Bowling for Columbine is a separate type of movie and separate type of issue.

Michael Moore engaged in what could best be referred to as "cut and paste journalism" or "cut and paste entertainment".

Oliver Stone, for all his faults, used a lot of historical fact (the Garrison investigation, etc) in the movie. You may have not liked what Stone arrived at. I didn't. I didn't believe it.

But with the use of a little artistic license, he showed his view of what happened. As I've said before, it's entertainment.
