Well, he is a handsome man...that may have soemthing to do with it. :-)
Note I didn't say he was articulate...wouldn't want to get in trouble.
Not that you couldn't be a genius... :-)...but I thinkit has more to do with what Churchill said about how if you're not a conservative when you're 40 you have no brain.
Sorry, that's considered a gay slur these days.
Not right wing? Why the fR account?

Though I certainly didn't expect better, it was still tough to watch Al Gore, who appears to weigh about a quarter of a ton, getting an Oscar over a documentary about children who survive by scrounging in the garbage dumps in Guatemala City.
Racial pandering?
Yeah, I think you're right.
I haven't seen the comments or a transcript, so I'm not going to specualte on a reason without context. I'd say it's far more likely that Deutch took her out of context or she was talking about non-ideological aspects of Ford than it is that she thought a pro-abort liberal deserves her vote.
Lets be honest...Harold Ford was a loser to start with...so it wasn't that big of a race.
As for the Gore election results...he did lose...but its a 4 percent margin, which isn't alot. Had Gore picked a more identifiable VP...he might have made up some points...who knows. But then...aren't we lucky that we stuck to the electoral college? A single-person vote election...would have brought totally different results (half-million more voters nationally for Gore than GW).
When its all said and done...the 2000 race was the luckiest Republican moment in 100 years...no one can deny that part.
I watched the entire segment with Ann, TWICE. Nothing out of context.
Well, the problem is that when people who actually wonder if Michael Moore's for real (or don't wonder at all, but just buy into his crap) use the phrase "right wing," they are talking about conservatives. Some of them are talking about everybody to the right of Kucinich.
Do you have any specific instances and people, or is this just another Drive By Attack by a Moonbat?
Example: Larry Klayman, who was supported by many of us (including me) and who garnered quite a few donations from people here. When President Bush was elected, Klayman suddenly (and I do mean suddenly) turned and began attacking Bush, Cheney, and even Laura Bush. Apparently he felt that with Republicans in office his best chance for getting donations for his "investigations" was through appealing to the left.
Another example: Arianna Huffington, who was once very conservative, but became a "populist" once the President was elected.
I have seen pundits scoriate the President over Katrina, even though anyone with knowledge knows that the fault lies with the democrats of Louisiana. The only explanation I can offer is that it gave them more time on TV.
Everyone has the option to believe whoever they wish. Myself, I no longer buy political books nor do I pay much attention to these folks, and that includes Coulter. You are free to follow whoever you wish.
I can't disagree with you on these examples.
Too bad there so many political prostitutes.
Moore treats the audience as if they had a zero IQ. I have only ever seen one of his films and that was on cable TV. I would certainly never pay to see one.
