Moore: Americans are 'The Dumbest People on the Planet'

Americans currently flocking to see Michael Moore's movie "Farenheit 9/11" might be surprised to learn how little respect the Democratic Party's leading propaganda-meister has for them.

''They are possibly the dumbest people on the planet," Moore told Britain's Mirror newspaper recently, referring to his fellow citizens as a whole.

Ahhhh...Okay, You do good photo editing work.

[rightwingcrazy]

Dumb luck, apparently.

[plain talk]

That's what so frustrating. The media is beating the crap out of us. If we had a fair press Bush's reelection would be a slam dunk and liberals like Moore would be reviled by the public as the scum they are.

Over the long term conservatives HAVE to find outreach and other ways to recruit and encourage conservative and fair minded journalists to infiltrate the media. The internet is a great counterbalance to some extent but it doesn't replace the media and talking heads who influence many, many Americans.

On the internet, most Americans I'm afraid go straight to cnn.com. I went to my sister's house recently. She's a conservative but doesn't follow politics much. Her computer IE home page was cnn.com until I changed it to fox.

Use some political jujitsu on the antiwar film goers: When the clapping starts as the film ends, yell "GO NADER!"

Thank you.

What he's really saying is that he can continue to sucker people, no matter how he portrays those that believe his tripe, and I hate to say he's right about that. He's really an extraordinary con man, or con slob, whichever you prefer - must give him credit for that, disgusting though it may be. When he made a few bucks off Roger & Me, his game was set, and he's been milking the ignorant masses ever since.

"He's a traitor to the United States and is offering comfort to the terrorists, our enemies. The fact this treasonous bastard's movies are playing in all our theaters astounds me. Our side has done a lousy job in not being able to effectively expose him as such a traitor that owners of theaters would be embarrased to show his film."

Let's understand that his movie has only been seen by less than 1% of the population here to date.$21 million divided by $8 = 2.9 million viewers all of who are most likely to not vote for W anyway.Some of these figures are viewers going a second time.MINIMAL IMPACT for such a big hype.

All I see are 20-something college burnouts, and 70-something former hippy burnouts.

Quite the age gap.

The nice thing is the liberal dogmatic teachers are driving my nephews into math and science where they have to suffer less 'arbitrariness' and can cling to facts being facts.

My daughter, niece, and 2 nephews are all teachers, and all very conservative.

One of my daughter's degrees is in Political Science, so she had to endure many hours of ultra liberal college profs blather. She always spoke her mind, and in many cases was one against many, or all in the classroom. But it didn't stop her, and for that, I am extremely proud of her.

She is now a HS math teacher. She occasionally has had students ask her questions about certain political issues off the topic of Math. She gives them her opinion. She does not force it upon them, but gives them something to think about. I wish your nephews could be in one of her classes!

I hope your nephews continue to speak their opinion, and stand up for what they believe in. Their voices may make a difference to someone.
