I haven't seen BFC, but I have read the first chapter of Moore's "Stupid etc". The guy needs to be institutionalized. In the book he tries to make the argument that in the space of less than a year under Bush we have gone from being the richest most powerful country in the world (thanks to Clinton of course) to a third-world trash heap populated with jobless, starving citizens and hapless minorities suddenly oppressed by a few thousand terrible, white Republican males who want to reintroduce slavery and make church attendance compulsory.

The movie and the book appeal to America-hating foreigners because this is what they want to believe about the U.S: we're all just a bunch of gun-toting, tobacco-chewing, bible thumpers who lucked or bullied are way into our current wealth and power. If we were actually as stupid as Moore would like gullible lefties to believe, we'd still be living in log cabins and trapping squirrels for dinner. Moore knows this, but it is very profitable for him to play the anti-America game. We can expect more of this drivel from him as it has made him a multi-millionaire.
