Why do liberals embrace fatboy Moore when he lies? |
-Spans' Brian Lamb interviews writer/director about Shooting Michael Moore
on Sunday July 29 at 5PM & 8PM (PST): - A biting, colorful expose of
renowned filmmaker -
Davison, MI - July 26, 2007 - Kevin Leffler is a friendly, CPA, tenured
assistant professor, and founder of an educational non-profit, who is a
life-long resident of Davison, Michigan. Leffler lives outside of Flint,
Michigan, Michael Moore's purported 'home town.' That Leffler elected to
finance and create a documentary about his old high school and work buddy
Michael embraces a rare sort of poetic justice.
Leffler's Shooting Michael Moore reveals another side of Moore. We learn
that while writing books and shooting films that expose America's inequities
and presenting himself as a moral compass, he abused the non-profit status,
engaged in questionable tax practices, violated environmental laws, and
invested in Halliburton, oil stocks, leading drug companies, and HMO-chains.
Additionally, contrary to his public persona, he used and deceived both the
"little people" as well as U.S servicemen, and Flint's populace is still
waiting for him to bring promised jobs.
Though we soon discover that honesty and generosity may not be descriptive
of Moore, Shooting Michael Moore is neither mean-spirited nor deceptive,
like so much of the namesake's work. Leffler is an amusing narrator, never
angry or righteous, and his film is an expose, peopled with colorful
characters as well as noted authorities.
We "visit" both Moore's lakeside mansion on Torch Lake, Michigan and his
penthouse in Manhattan and wonder if Moore is really anti-rich. Once we
learn Iran and Osama Bin Laden praised Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11, we also
question his patriotism.
After screening the documentary, C-Span's Brian Lamb invited Leffler to
appear on his weekly Q&A program. The broadcast will provide Shooting
Michael Moore with its first national exposure. The DVD, which runs 80
minutes, is available for $24.95 at www.shootingmichaelmoore.com, where a
5-minute trailer may be viewed.

What we find is that the surge has troops going into areas, where for 4 1/2
years we have not seen our military in action. Naturally, they are routing
out al Qaeda in those areas. That's a good thing.

I don't support Michael Moore. I think he muddies serious debate. I
wish he'd just shut the ***** up and let us get on with the task of
repairing this country.
Now, are you willing to express the same about Ann Coulter, Rush
Limbaugh, Michael Savage, Bill O'Reilly, Michelle Malkin and the other
dozen or so right wing talking heads?

How will these issues (911 truth, medical/insurance industry, etc..) be
brought to the mainstream if not for the Michael Moore's?
In other words, the (corporate) mainstream media is not interested in
investigative work that will acutally benefit the people.
You can debate issues until you turn blue in the face, but it doesn't put
the crooks in jail (e.g. BushCo, etc...).
I do agree with you about the right-wing talking head spokesholes.
