Michael Moore Fires Back at ‘American Sniper’ Accusations: I Didn’t Mention the Film
MSN ^ | 19 JAN 2015 | Greg Gilman

Michael Moore defended a statement he made on Sunday that "snipers aren't heroes" by refuting the interpretation that he was weighing in on the debate surrounding Clint Eastwood's "American Sniper."

"My dad always said, 'Snipers are cowards. They don't believe in a fair fight. Like someone coming up from behind you and coldcocking you. Just isn't right. It's cowardly to shoot a person in the back,'" Moore wrote on Facebook late Sunday with a link to tweets. "But Deadline Hollwood and the Hollywood Reporter turned that into stories about how I don't like Clint Eastwood's new film, 'American Sniper.' I didn't say a word about 'American Sniper' in my tweets."

Moore makes a living parsing words, but we know why he piped up.

It’s a damn shame that this Tub ‘O’ Lard used Chris Kyle to steal another 15 minutes in the spotlight.

refuting the interpretation that he was weighing in on the debate surrounding Clint Eastwood's "American Sniper."

One thing Moore can do on ANY issue is "weigh in."

So a sniper, who is, by the way, actually on the battlefield, and therefore subject to attack, is a coward, but Barack Obama who assassinates by remote control through his drones, is a great man. Sure.

Has he ever denounced that war crime actions of his beloved “freedom fighters” in Iraq who he hoped would win and send America running home to lick our wounds?

Yeah, right. He just happened to post a comment about snipers on the weekend that a movie about a sniper is breaking records?

Lying, wormy, blob of fat.

Ohhhhhh. So it's just a coinkydink that your assessment of snipers reared its ugly ass two days after American Sniper debuted.

Who writes Mr. Creosote's tweets? Jonathan Gruber?
