Michael Moore Read an interview he gave On Blair "Blair & Clinton were like peas in a pod. You can imagine them in a frat house together. They were both smart, they had the same beliefs. On Blair As Bush's Mate "What can he possibly get out of it? I have no idea. Does he want a job on the ranch? A trip to Disney World? Does he want to sign up as the 51st State?" On Countries Pro & Anti War "Real friends are the ones who tell you when you're screwing up & France & Germany were telling us that. Even New Zealand were brave enough not to join the Coalition Of The Willing - Sorry, the Coalition Of The Bribed & Coerced. The British & the Aussies didn't have the Courage to say no, but New Zealand did, Germany did & France did. So it seems anyone who doesn't agree with fat Mickey is obviously being bribed. He also says "The real problem in the states is Wall St & Corporate America" He must mean people like Rupert Murdoch. I mean Rupert owns News International,Fox,Sky & amongst other things Harper Collins. Harper Collins........THAT RINGS A BELL..........OH YES, THE COMPANY THAT HAS PUBLISHED MICHAEL MOORE'S TOP SELLING BOOKS!!!!!!!!! So the man who owns THE SUN - signs the cheques for M.Moore to write books for him. ONLY IN AMERICA! The only difference between a Sun reader & somebody who reads a Moore book is 1 of them KNOWS they are reading crap. On the subject of newspapers Moore did say in the interview "British people are better read than we are, you have better newspapers than we do." As Murdochs News International own a large proportion of British newspapers & have nearly half of the newspaper readership in Britain you wouldn't expect a Murdoch crony like Moore to say any different. To me Moore isn't the GREAT LEFT DREAM he is a witty comedian who has a gag/slant that sells BIG TIME!!!
Spence, jus wondering, have you ever read one of his books cover to cover. Michael Moore isn't the great left dream by any means, he has no solutions for 1 thing, but his rhetoric is sopt on
Your definately bored of the posts on here Spence when you post anti Michael Moore stuff to get peeps like Si and myself to react
I don't buy Murdoch products like his. I wouldn't read his books as I have seen the crap people spout after THEY ARE FULLY MOORED UP . As for reading left wing views give me something by Tony Benn instead.
I'm shocked and pleasanently suprised.... unless you're winding me up here!!! Tony Benn made me a socialist :worship:
YOU HAVE ME ALL WRONG SI! I like Tony Benn he was a great politician & is still a great speaker on politics. It is a shame the Labour party has no one like him......... did someone say Claire Short!!!!!!!! DONT MAKE ME LAUGH. I like good politicians such as Benn,Hurd,Hague etc
Got all four of Michael Moore's books here in front of me - and they are published by Penguin for the most recent two - and Pan Macmillan for "tv nation" and "downsize this".
I was going off what HE said in an interview. Check http://www.semcoop.com/booklist/327271 out to see who they credit as the publisher on of his books
Yeah his US publisher is harper collins - his UK publishers are Penguin. Worth correcting you on that point
On what point? I said Rupert Murdochs compay Harper Collins are Michael Moores publishers which they are.
Cause if the point you were making about michael moore readers unknowingly reading stuff published by the same people who publish the newspapers they criticise,... would have been incorrect in light of penguin publishing his books in the UK. :angel2:
The point I was making is they are both full of crap but only 1 group of people know they are reading crap, make up YOUR OWN MIND as to who I mean. As si says Moore " has no solutions" & nor does The Sun. I did state in my first post "Only In America!" You can try & defend your boy but there is no getting away from the FACT that Rupert Murdoch gives him loads of corporate $$$$$'s for his work . Do you not think that is wrong for a man like Moore. As for Penguin I could do background search on them to find if they are ANOTHER multi national corporation who Moore gets big bucks from.
Theres no chance for the left these days in the modern western world - best they could hope for it a few champagne socialists and their weekend manouvers
