What did Moore base his career on? Does Moore have any genuine credentials? If so, what are they?
Did he begin many years ago back in the 1980s by riding the coat tails and using the ideas, work and identity of concerned Flint autoworker activists? Mike Moore was never a blue-collar activist and it is up for debate if he was even a Flint talking head. He was really not much more then an observer in Flint who made a cheap movie. For Moore to have alluded or suggested otherwise, or that he was the lone Flint Don Quixote raising the issues, is just false and one of his first most glaring problems with the truth. This is fundamentally important because it is what he has based his entire career upon. Today, the world has seen Mike in action, and much of the world questions his narcissistic endeavor to make a matinee idol out of himself by ridiculing people, making fun of serious situations and using calculated lunacy, such as offering Americas college students free underwear, to get attention for his contrived arguments. Like a twisted pied piper pagan preacher Mike has targeted our youth, held rallies with them and has been quick to inflict his convoluted values on his liberal enamored listeners and viewers. Mikes mouth pukes out profanities and obscenities as he attacks people he personally labels as Americas conservative infidels. He defies basic Biblical scripture and raises his fist against Gods word as he chastises Christian principles.
Moore has traveled around the world discrediting America by calling Americans dumb, stupid and embarrassing.Unbelievably, Mike has stated that those killing our soldiers in Iraq could be considered as equals to our own Revolutionary War heroes

Has Michael Moore resurfaced since his last bitter defeat at the Republican Convention in 2004?
Probably working on his latest anti-American propaganda film.
He’s hiding in his mansion at Torch Lake.
“Moore has traveled around the world discrediting America by calling Americans dumb, stupid and embarrassing.”

Describing himself actually.
My thought is for those who hate America and Americans — why not move to France...or better yet to somewhere in the Middle East, since you love the terrorists so much. Good luck. Cuz I don’t care how much support you have for the terrorists, they will cut off your head too. You’re an infidel, after all.
AND he did not grow up in Flint. He grew up in Davison. Lilly White Davison at the time.
And, Mr. Westfall, since he was saying the same things you were saying and gaining a national stage to say them on, you and your activists took a giant step BACKWARDS and let him go on.
Sorry, but it's too effin late now. Go cry in your shuttered factory, pal.
The UAW was one of the richest and most powerful unions in the U.S. They were making $20 per hour when other blue collar workers were making maybe $5 per hour. My father used to show me his old pay stubs (he worked for the railroad) — some of the earliest ones were at the rate of 35 cents per hour. He made so little money he didn’t have to pay taxes. His union was not interested in the big paychecks — they went for the benefits. At one time they had the best health insurance and the best pension plan. But then when the other unions became too greedy, the companies folded and there was no business for the railroads anymore — so the railroads went under also. My dad was lucky though — he was already on pension when the railroads folded and his health care was paid for until he was 65 (he retired early at 60). His pension included a cost of living increase and he was smart enough to have not only a regular pension, but also a supplemental pension which he paid into over the years. Plus my mother also drew a spousal pension. So the two of them did very well. With the other unions, however, those workers had pension plans that went belly up, and because none of them were wise enough to build a nest egg from their extravagant wages, many of those workers wound up destitute.
Greed and stupidity did in the blue collar workers. So by and large, I can’t feel sorry for them.
Theres a reason socialists target Unions as prime propaganda outlets.. From Teachers Unions to Gov’t Workers Unions to Auto Workers or Airlines.. Unions destroy civility and promote envy and selfishness.. ALWAYS.. The opposite of what they claim..
