In some ways America 2002 resembles America 1860: split down the middle and bitterly divided against itself.

Moore, a longtime agitator and author of "Stupid White Men,"

Ah, the long-awaited Michael Moore autobiography is out I see.

Though those who consider themselves "moderate" or "in-the-middle" are likely the majority in our country, it is the Right and the Left who drive the country. The Right and the Left are the ones with passion, the ones who fight to make a difference, who care ten times more than the middle about the direction the country is going and how it is getting there.

The good guys may have some weapons, but the bad guys will have the FBI HRT, BATF SRT, plus data bases, commo, etc etc etc.

The 'bad guys' will also have an enormous debt to support via a constituency of leeches. Not a very good prospect for the long-term viability of the Federal Reserve Banks. Of course, their banks have spent the last 10 years going around cornering the gold market. The 'good guys' may have to choose something other to use for currency.

"We're the same polarized country we were in November 2000, when there was a 500-vote difference for president," says Moore

So he finally admits that there indeed was a real margin of victory for President Bush! His mantra otherwise has been that the election was stolen. He is too stupid, no doubt, to realize this admission for what it is.

By the way, Big Mouth Moore should take a trip down to the WTC firefighter memorial at the North Cove in Manhattan, just north of the site. It graphically shows that an awful lot of "white men" died trying to save others, and their pictures and mementos are there. I suppose the likes of Mr. Moore would call them stupid, too....

Not quite, I think were more like in the 1840's just after the Mexican-American war. Don't worry we'll get to the 1860's soon.
