Americans currently flocking to see Michael Moore's movie "Farenheit 9/11" might be surprised to learn how little respect the Democratic Party's leading propaganda-meister has for them.''They are possibly the dumbest people on the planet," Moore told Britain's Mirror newspaper recently, referring to his fellow citizens as a whole. And that's not all Moore had to say about his brother Yanks across the pond. ''We Americans suffer from an enforced ignorance. We don't know about anything that's happening outside our country. Our stupidity is embarrassing.''
Turns out, when the Democratic Party's all-but-official filmmaker is speaking at home, he has nice things to say about at least some of his fellow citizens. But according to New York Times columnist David Brooks, when Moore travels abroad it's not just the Bush administration he trashes - but the American people en-masse.
Here's a few more bon mots from the Kerry campaign's leading celluloid supporter, as cited by Mr. Brooks on Saturday:
''That's why we're smiling all the time,'' Moore told a rapturous throng in Munich. ''You can see us coming down the street. You know, 'Hey! Hi! How's it going?' We've got that big [expletive] grin on our face all the time because our brains aren't loaded down.''
To a crowd in Cambridge, Moore intoned: ''You're stuck with being connected to this country of mine, which is known for bringing sadness and misery to places around the globe.''
Here's Moore's reaction to the 9/11 attacks, offered while the rubble at Ground Zero was still smoldering: ''We, the United States of America, are culpable in committing so many acts of terror and bloodshed that we had better get a clue about the culture of violence in which we have been active participants.''
As for the terrorists currently killing American soldiers in Iraq, Moore compares them to Revolutionary war heroes who fought off British oppression:
''The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not 'insurgents' or 'terrorists' or 'The Enemy.' They are the REVOLUTION, the Minutemen, and their numbers will grow -- and they will win.''
We can only hope he does drop dead of something.
Could it disguise an inferiority complex?
Michael, leave immediately before we infect you. It is contagious..hahahahaaa.
Moore gives bowel infesting parasites a bad name...
Evil people seem to live long and never suffer from health problems, OJ, Michael Moore, Bill and Hill. This too shall pass. If we ignore it we be history in a few weeks.
So he says.
Don't get all maudlin on us. No one is proposing legislation against free speech. There IS such thing as treason and sedition. It is particularly germain when publishing or producing material filled with falsehoods and misrepresentations deliberately designed to harm the nation...
We, in general, muffle with the market. The left muffles through their near full domination of the media and by government mandate.
Yeah, but he sure ain't voting Republican. More like democRat
Don't be so sure. I tend to believe that the majority of taxpayers vote their pocketbook. I believe many Hollywood liberals publicly condemn Republicans to please their superiors and production companies, but vote for them once inside the voting booth, hidden from view.
In Michael Whore's case, he makes more money and has a larger, attentive audience when a Republican is in the Executive office.
>Moore: Americans are 'The Dumbest People on the Planet'
He is speaking for himself, of course.<
Au Contraire. Lumpy refers to his adoring followers. Who should know better than he how incredibly moronic must anyone be who believes the propoganda packaged as Lumpy's "art".
Drat, I meant "propaganda".
Americans are so dumb they believe Moore's crap is true. He might be correct but he's profiting from it.
Took the family to the zoo recently and noticed there was a fairly large crowd over watching the monkeys and we went over to see what was going on. And so we stood there with everyone else and watched the monkeys fling poop on each other.
Everything about Michael Moron is sickening, incl. his brain.
Bump! This is still news.
