Subject: RE: BS: Michael Moore...a phony!! From: number 6 Date: 14 Nov 05 - 03:47 PM Beardedbruce .... I like that 'Casablanca gambling' Post ... Moore will probably use that "I was misinformed" excuse, it has worked well with Bush and his cronies so far. sIx |
Subject: RE: BS: Michael Moore...a phony!! From: number 6 Date: 14 Nov 05 - 03:40 PM "I respect Michael Moore for one thing above others: when the whole country was swarming with the buglike echoes of the Bush Gangsta Line on WMDs and everyone was slapping "patriotism" stickers on their foreheads, Michael Moore stood up and pointed out succinctly that not only did the emperor have no clothes, he also had no conscience and no integrity." I agree Amos, and I thought highly of Moore on his efforts ... but I now question Moore's integrety. I have not heard any defense from Moore yet, but I am waiting. Investing in Haliburton (for profit) is as immoral as one can get. Don't forget where those profits are coming from. Sorry. His non-profit organization is listed as his home ... he is close enough, and the ones who are investing for that organization are close enough to understand what is going on. I don't beleive one can use which wing you are, as an excuse for immoral hypocracy. sIx |

Subject: RE: BS: Michael Moore...a phony!! From: Amos Date: 14 Nov 05 - 03:13 PM I respect Michael Moore for one thing above others: when the whole country was swarming with the buglike echoes of the Bush Gangsta Line on WMDs and everyone was slapping "patriotism" stickers on their foreheads, Michael Moore stood up and pointed out succinctly that not only did the emperor have no clothes, he also had no conscience and no integrity. He broke a logjam of unexpressed worry that was widespread but suppressed among thousands of thinking citizens who saw the contradictions but could not find a focal point to communicate what they saw. At that time, in that context, he was a moral voice in a jungle of opportunistic compromises and immoral war-mongering. He deserves a vote of thanks for that. A If he has a non-profit foundation that has invested in Hallburton, it is perfectly possible that he is not making those decisions himself. NFP organizations often have their own boards and their investments are often made by even more removed decisionmakers in the invenstment communioty. Has anyone bothered to isolate the facts around this slander? Or are we just beating drums and dancing around the campfire here? A |

Subject: RE: BS: Michael Moore...a phony!! From: number 6 Date: 14 Nov 05 - 02:52 PM 'Guess he's just anothet stupid white man.' That about sums him up Guest! I can appreciate Moore investing ... but attacking a company such Haliburton, the flagship of Dr. Evil (Cheney) himself and then taking advantage of the profits of it, that I find is unacceptable and blatantly hypocritcal. sIx |
Subject: RE: BS: Michael Moore...a phony!! From: GUEST Date: 14 Nov 05 - 02:25 PM I don't know if he's a phoney but I have always felt that he is a "fake" and that the films are really about him and not the causes he claims to champion. Guess he's just anothet stupid white man. |

From: kendall Date: 14 Nov 05 - 02:02 PM It aint government that is in the way, it's greedy fat cats who control out supply of oil. 25 billion dollars in one quarter in profits! And, Senator Stevens from Alaska in charge of the Senate panel who were trying to get the truth out of the oil magnates decreeing that each Senator only had 5 minutes to question the pigs! I say vote AGAINST all incumbents! The republicans are ruining the country and the democrats are watching them do it, afraid to speak out for fear of being labeled anti American. |

Subject: RE: BS: Michael Moore...a phony!! From: GUEST,Martin Gibson Date: 13 Nov 05 - 08:47 PM No, amos you are wrong. He is fat, a slob, and he owns plenty of Haliburton stock. He is Michael Moore, spokesman for the left and as phony as can be. Anyone who posts a thousand times to his own thread probably should have his head examined. Just think how much more time you could spend on music if you weren't so obsessed with being so radically left winged. Hi Peace. Shalom. |
Subject: RE: BS: Michael Moore...a phony!! From: Peace Date: 13 Nov 05 - 08:36 PM I don't think you can say that and mean it, Kendall. Halliburton is doing VERY well. |
Subject: RE: BS: Michael Moore...a phony!! From: kendall Date: 13 Nov 05 - 08:34 PM I'd be suspicious of ANY list that had only liberals on it. G.W. Bush is the ultimate phony. The only thing he ever succeeded at is the moral and financial ruin of this country. |

Subject: RE: BS: Michael Moore...a phony!! From: number 6 Date: 13 Nov 05 - 09:49 AM The info regarding his stock ownership as mentioned in the book by Peter Schweizer "Do As I Say (Not As I Do): Profiles in Liberal Hypocrisy." is supposidly sourced from Moore's own signed Schedule D declaring his capital gains and losses where his stock ownership .... how Schweizer obtained this info is unclear .... I dunno, I watch Moores Website to see what his defense is. sIx |
