“in the primaries” he continues. So his morals are malleable.

Why can’t this have been the fat traitor who was with Al-Libi? I mean, Gadahn is cool and all but Gadahn and Moore would have been a hat trick!

I jest of course. Moore is just a pathological liar. He has a minor problem with the whole bearing false witness.

Actually, Moore was quite normal in this clip. Even in a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while.

I have great editors, too.

Ain’t that the truth.

amkun on February 9, 2008 at 9:48 AM

I can answer Larry’s initial question.

Tey don’t show Faenheit 9/11 on Network TV, because ha movie is total crap.

In a sane world, people that propagandize for the enemy are imprisoned or executed, not given prime TV time.

JayHaw Phrenzie on February 9, 2008 at 9:51 AM

“We have a lot of fun in the editing room…”

I’m sure you do Mr. Moore…I’m sure you do.

JetBoy on February 9, 2008 at 9:55 AM

According to his own religious test (Catholic stance on abortion), he is morally prohibited from voting for any of the democrat candidates. I wonder how he comments on that.

geckomon on February 9, 2008 at 9:55 AM

I get the impression that he’s using his religious beliefs as a justification for what he would have done anyway. Religion is only valuable insofar as he can use it to advance his agenda. It’s his political agenda that informs his religion, not vice-versa; in which case, his political beliefs are at the center of his life rather than his religious beliefs. This is problematic, since Christianity calls upon us to put God at the center. Of course, this is something that can be done by both sides.

Obviously, this is very speculative. I don’t know what’s in his heart.

JS on February 9, 2008 at 10:05 AM

I’m guessing cholesterol.

JetBoy on February 9, 2008 at 10:09 AM

I’m guessing backed up flatulence.

DoctorDentons on February 9, 2008 at 10:16 AM

Moore is a liar and a cheat:

Dave Kopel breaks down 9/11 pretty well
59 decits

This indie documentry breaks down his misinformation agenda in Columbine
Michael More Hates America

And heres a once-over of Sicko by, of all people, MTVs Kurt Loder
‘Sicko’: Heavily Doctored
You can also look up his spat with CNN medical expert Sanje Gupta on You Tube.

Arm yourself.

Exactly.

geckomon on February 9, 2008 at 10:25 AM

Sorry, but I want Hillary! to be the democrat nominee. I think she will be easier to beat than Obamama.

Blake on February 9, 2008 at 10:28 AM

Good point geckomon. Maybe his next project could be about partial birth abortions or the scam regarding stem cells. However, I have a feeling that Moore is a line-item veto Catholic.

Squarestate on February 9, 2008 at 10:46 AM

JayHaw Phrenzie on February 9, 2008 at 9:51 AM

Correct. He tries to find a reason in them backing Bush or political fear. Maybe, I know this sounds crazy, but they’re private corporations who don’t like you movie, Mike.

amerpundit on February 9, 2008 at 10:46 AM

Well, I feel like I just wasted minutes of my life for nothing. Thanks for that. :)

tickleddragon on February 9, 2008 at 11:03 AM

It would have to come from you.

Hehe

MirCat on February 9, 2008 at 11:03 AM

He hates attacks on anybody’s religion? Like a broken clock, he’s right once in a while, I suppose.

Too bad he doesn’t have the same regard for veracity.

petefrt on February 9, 2008 at 11:10 AM

Blake on February 9, 2008 at 10:28 AM

Ideologically, I am very worried that Moore is supporting Barry Hussein. The loons seem to be rushing to join his camp. This sums up why he needs to be stopped. I urge indies to register to vote for Hillary where they can in the remaining Dem primaries – not only will be easier to stop Obama at this stage, but also we have the satisfaction of seeing both the Democratic totems destroyed this year.

Pax americana on February 9, 2008 at 11:10 AM

To my knowledge Fahrenheit 911 has never been shown on commercial TV.

LOL! Might have something to do with it being a pile of junk, Larry.

Pax americana on February 9, 2008 at 11:13 AM

Religious qualms?

Mike, isn’t GLUTTONY one of the Seven Deadly Sins?

Or don’t you have a mirror big enough to realize it?

profitsbeard on February 9, 2008 at 11:53 AM

The would be Priest? Umm that was Divinity training in 8th grade and he quit because of The Detroit Tigers…

It’s true. Believe it or not, controversial documentary filmmaker Michael Moore began studying at a seminary in his hometown of Flint, Michigan, as just an eighth grader in 1967. Brought up a devout Catholic, Moore aspired to become a priest. His career, however, proved to be a non-starter when he quit the seminary the next year; apparently, the Detroit Tigers had made it to the World Series in 1968, and the seminary refused to let Moore — a Tigers fan — watch the games!

This quitting thing actually became a bit of habit for Moore in his younger years. He subsequently dropped out of the University of Michigan because he arrived at school one morning and couldn’t find a parking place; and he once got a job at an automobile factory in Flint, but called in sick on his first day and never returned.

He had no problem urging his flock to plug their nose and vote for Kerry in 04′!

Pam on February 9, 2008 at 12:01 PM

He went to the seminary to become a priest? I wonder why people like Bernie Ward and Michael Moore had a desire to become priests. I think it’s all about the altar boys.

Buddahpundit on February 9, 2008 at 12:09 PM

First, one must have morals.

DAT60A3 on February 9, 2008 at 12:30 PM

geckomon on February 9, 2008 at 9:55 AM

Well, see, uh, he’s a Catholic, but abortion is, well, you know, a personal choice thing, whereas war is always wrong in the catechism according to St. Michael Moore. What a hypocritical hyena.

Nichevo on February 9, 2008 at 12:44 PM

It’s pretty difficult to use Michael Moore and morally in the same sentence. I think that has to violate some law of grammar.

I quit paying attention to this guy long ago. He feeds off the attention. If we would quit paying attention, he would wither and die like a leaf (a fat leaf) in the fall.

gstrickler on February 9, 2008 at 12:46 PM

Edit the truth to half truth half lie

Drtuddle on February 9, 2008 at 12:49 PM

That’s okay Mikey, I’m gonna register Dem for the primary and vote for Hillary for you. A little strategeric voting.

doubleplusundead on February 9, 2008 at 1:31 PM

Morally prohibited from voting for Hillary

What the HELL do I do now?

MB4 on February 9, 2008 at 1:51 PM

IMO Michael Moore’s one redeeming thing in life was to play a bit part in the hilariously stupid movie, Lucky Numbers.

His character was a whining, wheezing, idiot which mirrors his real life perfectly.

Domino on February 9, 2008 at 2:30 PM

Morally prohibited

After 7,948.893,904,932 lies, what does one more immoral deed matter?

jgapinoy on February 9, 2008 at 3:00 PM

Too bad Tubby didn’t answer the full religious question. Hey Mike it was how do you feel about our founders wanting to keep the government out of the Church, not God out of the government. Probably too nuanced for him to consider.

Mallard T. Drake on February 9, 2008 at 3:05 PM

Looks like Tubby is contributing to the health care “crisis” in this country and needlessly over burdening the system by letting him develop his Jabba the Hut physique.

I noticed he was wearing black, which after all is very slimming. Imagine him sitting there in white. ::Must purge image from my mind::

Mallard T. Drake on February 9, 2008 at 3:07 PM

Talk about ducking a bullet, Michael Moore a priest. And the Catholics thought the gay priest thing was a problem.

pwb on February 9, 2008 at 3:26 PM

The equivalent to the broadcast networks’ “fear of retribution” for showing “F911″ on television is the fact that the telefilm “The Path to 9/11″ has yet to be made commercially available on DVD.

Release it…NOW!

Captain Scarlet on February 9, 2008 at 3:47 PM

I’m guessing backed up flatulence.

DoctorDentons on February 9, 2008 at 10:16 AM

Laughing out Loud!

brtex on February 9, 2008 at 4:09 PM

Michael Moore,”I still goes to Mass”.
No Mike you are a mASS.

joeswampy on February 9, 2008 at 4:10 PM

Hillary isn’t liberal enough for Michael Moore, and we need another endorsement?

I’ve long been one of those Conservatives who won’t be supporting McCain. In fact, I’ll certainly be voting for the Democratic Congressman Barrow in Georgia. He has voted almost without exception as a conservative. In the American Conservative Union gave Barrow a Conservative rating of 76 in 2006, when it gave McCain a rating of 65. It’s a crying shame that a Democratic Congressman is more conservative than a Republican Senator. It’s worse than a crying shame when that same Senator is the nominee of the purportedly conservative party.

Snake307 on February 9, 2008 at 5:07 PM

Morally obtuse and factually incorrect. That’s what Fahrenheit 911 was.

Moore is a emotionally bankrupt fraud.

Kini on February 9, 2008 at 5:10 PM

Talk is cheap, fat man. Show us the movie!

DannoJyd on February 9, 2008 at 6:50 PM

According to IMDb Fahrenheit 9/11 is 122 minutes long. So it wouldn’t fit into a two hour time slot even if it was aired without commercials. With commercials it would have to be edited to shreds. Like every other movie shown on network TV.

Which is why network TV doesn’t show any theatrical movies anymore. They don’t even make many made-for-TV movies anymore.

Fahrenheit 9/11 has played on the pay movie channels. I subscribe to all of them so I don’t know how many it’s played on, but I have tried to watch it several times and find it boring beyond belief.

It’s not as boring as An Inconvenient Truth, though. I’ll give it that much.

Jaynie59 on February 9, 2008 at 7:01 PM

They’re both morally bankrupt.

Its always amazing how much worse some people can be than even a closet communist Hillary.

Speakup on February 9, 2008 at 7:22 PM

So what does his religion tell him about abortion. Imbecile.
