Why Is Michael Moore Pretending He Hates Bailouts?
David Horowitz's NewsReal Blog ^ | March 7, 2011 | Walter Hudson

It was only a matter of time. I'm surprised it took this long. Michael Moore has finally added his shrill voice to the cacophony of thugs in Wisconsin.

"Right now the Earth is shaking and the ground is shifting under the feet of those who are in charge," said Moore...

"America is not broke ... Wisconsin is not broke," Moore said. "The only thing that's broke is the moral compass of the rulers(...)"

Repeatedly saying "America is not broke," Moore said "the country is awash in wealth and cash ... It has been transferred in the greatest heist in history from the workers and consumers to the banks and the portfolios of the uber-rich."

Despite Wall Street bailouts shortly after the recession began in 2008, "millions lost their jobs anyway, and millions lost their homes," Moore said.

"But there was no revolt ... until now..."

As usual, Moore is all over the philosophical map, weaving non sequitur into a net of lies. His overarching tactic remains the same as it has always been, to represent black as white, up as down, left as right, and good as evil. In fact, you can fairly well predict what Moore will say about anything by taking the truth and stating the opposite.

Let's start with his description of duly elected public servants like Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker. Moore has made no bones about his status as a communist revolutionary. He pines for the radical transformation of America at any cost. From that position, "those who are in charge" are evil, because they are in charge. Nevermind how they acquired power...

Hate to make ad hominem jokes, but the jokes write themselves given Michael’s size.

Moore is the one awash in cash. I would give a month’s pay to find out how much tax he pays and and what charities he supports.

Plus, Moore left out the inconvenient fact that is was a majority of Democrats in a Dem majority Congress who voted for TARP.

A minority of Republicans (but still far too many) voted for TARP.

Plus he neglected to mention there WAS an outcry against the bailouts, but not from his side.

Michael Moore (quote), from his website, April 14, 2004...

"The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not 'insurgents' or 'terrorists' or 'The Enemy.' They are the REVOLUTION, the Minutemen, and their numbers will grow -- and they will win. Get it, Mr. Bush?"
[actual quote from Michael Moore (2004). It still appears on his website]

He's right, but unfortunately the people in charge are Obama and Reid!
