I'm shocked that Mel Gibson would have anything to do with this slimeball.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Films like this don't deserve the title of "documentary." How about "ficti-mentary."

[Young Rhino]

Is Michael Moore actually Scott Ritter's twin...albeit with worse hygiene?

[edwin hubble]

Can we get an email or website reference on Mel Gibson's company.

They should be told that this is a bad move.

[Dr. Eckleburg]

Not to worry. This show will never see the light of day.

It's an old ploy -- if you don't want a story told, you buy the rights and then sit on them forever.

We are going to have to come up with a new medical term for those afflicted with a heavy case of the Anti-Bush disease. Symptoms - Lost sense of reality. Enhanced sense of ones own ego. Being attracted to all other anti-bush people even if they are torturing and mudering dictators. Confusing freedom with dictatorships. And finally a stimulated desire to put ones self out of ones own misery.

Michael Moore = full metal jacket

Think of how much money conservatives could make using this tactic to shop scripts called "The Lewinsky Cigar," "The Many Girlfriends of Hillary," "Daddy Hubbell - The Chelsea Clinton Story." The possibilities are endless.

Put moore in an iraqi prison and do a docu on himself.

Mel Gibson's father entertains many such conspiracy theories.

Noxon also interviewed Gibson's 84-year-old father, Hutton, an author and activist whose railings against the Vatican have included books called Is The Pope Catholic? and The Enemy Is Here.
Gibson snr also publishes a newsletter that refers to the pope as "Garrulous Karolus, the Koran Kisser" and professes to such conspiracy theories as Vatican II being a Masonic plot backed by the Jews, the al-Qaeda hijackers having nothing to do with crashing planes in the September 11 terrorist attacks ("they were crashed by remote control") and denying the Holocaust killed 6 million Jews ("There were more after the war than before").
While Gibson reportedly disagrees with his father on many issues, there is no doubt he believes in a very traditional brand of Catholicism.

If Gibson knows what's good for him, he'll dump this radioactive prick quick.

[DoughtyOne]

You know what, I hope you're right.

[timestax]

It's not illegal for him to make a movie, BUT who is funding it??! Hollywierd type like him NEVER spend any of their OWN dough. WHO IS GIVING HIM THE MOOLAH, the Unions, maybe?!

What I see here is really good news: the left being driven deeper into the conspiracy batcave. Constant media indoctrination about "right-wing conspiracy theories" cannot disguise the fact that conspiracy theories play a much larger and more significant role on the left than on the right and are certainly taken more seriously by the leadership on the left; including Moore himself, obviously.

Former Attorney-General Ramsey Clark is a respected figure on the left, leader of the Communist-sponsored ANSWER coalition. He is also a raving moonbat conspiracy theorist on the same level of logic as moon-landing denialists and flat-earth proponents. Clark alleges, for instance, that US troops massacred more than 20,000 civilians in Panama in 1989, and that only the right-wing's total control of the "corporate" media keeps this claim from being generally accepted. He also traces current US policy to a Republican plot to conquer the world that has existed since the 19th century. As a leftist and fringe Camelot figure (via the Johnson Succession) he gets a free pass on all this from the self-same media he excoriates as a capitalist tool. Oddly enough, Clark himself is never named as a suspect in any of the many left-wing conspiracy theories surrounding the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy. Clark was Attorney-General at the time, J. Edgar Hoover's boss, and is almost the only major office-holder of the time whom the lefty moonbats do not accuse.

Similarly, many of the claims supporting the left's lame "blood for oil" mantra allege complex behind-the-scenes manipulations by shadowy and ruthless groups; all presented with little or no evidence beyond innuendo, circular reasoning, and the presumed authority of the accuser, i.e. classical conspiracy theories.

Now is the time for some hard core investigation into moore's backround! This slob MUST have some hidden things that he doesn't want revealed. I say expose the derelict for what he really is!

I'm shocked that Mel Gibson would have anything to do with this slimeball. - If you buy it you control it!

[HitmanLV]

I always wondered why someone didn't finance 4 film students to follow Moore around for like 3 years and film every move he makes. Moore likes his ambush style of interview - I wonder if he can take it for a few years?

[Russell Scott]

Moore's next film is going to unmask Saddam. We will find out he used to be Chairman of the Yugo Corporation. It will explain why he is so evil, he was as a capitalist pig before he become a brutal dictator. Moore will explain how if Saddam would have built a decent car, Iraq would be a free country today.

[CenterRight]

Michael Moore is a guy who starts with a marketable idea, and then can't resist the temptation to twist and distort the facts in an attempt to make it more marketable.

Can you imagine the hatchet job he'd do on a Bush/bin Laden connection film? By the time he's done, there will be a so-called "confidential source" claiming that George W. Bush and Osama bin Laden were gay lovers back in the '70s.
