Fifty-one percent of the American people lacked information (in this election) and we want to educate and enlighten them.

No we had all the info we needed Michael we just don't agree with YOUR point of view.

Uhm, the voters didn't have all the info. Read the PIPA report, disturbing...

He shouldn't have exagerated, the Dub's dismal failure would have been damning enough. By exagerating he made the Dub seem like a sympathetic character.

Exactly there was no need to go that extra mile and put the movie over the top. If it had been made as a true documentary, without his seemingly whacko analysis the movie wouldn't have received nearly as much criticism. Moore needs to understand that a lot of people don't like seeing the President being made fun of and mocked, no matter who he is.

No, he gets it.

He is going to capitalize on the resentment over the loss of the election felt by many Democrats, if Bush was out of office he wouldn't have any material to use.

Plenty of voters of any party were arguably massively uninformed about the facts. It's the problem with politics being so complicated. There's only so much that gets out to the masses. Context and intricacies are, rather understandably, glossed over.

Oh, they had the information. They just didn't want to believe it. They didn't want to admit they were supporting such a failure as President.

You can not trust the voter to be intelligent and look at the unvarnished facts.
They may not then agreee with the spoonfed drivel that comes out of the political mouths.

You all miss the point that moore doesn't have any knowledge or info that would convince those 51% to vote for John Kerry. They believe in George W Bush and want him as President.

I doubt that 51% believed in the Dub, they just preferred him over Kerry. The Devil you know is better than the Devil you don't.

Those 51% don't think Bush is a failure, that's the difference of opinion. Those 51% think Bush is doing the RIGHT thing and think he will succeed.

I think Bush has been successful in fighting a difficult war without the neccessary troops that America needs.

1.4 million is just not enough for us to get the job done around the world, we should have 3 million troops with 1 million that can go anywhere anytime.

Well maybe the DUb should have thought of that before he launched his ill advised and ill planned invasion and occupation of Iraq.

I'm sure there were many who held their noses and selected the Dub just like there were who selected Kerry.

Although, I almost filled in Badnarik's circle.

True, but there's also no shortage of them in Nashville, Texas, B.F.E., or the GOP headquarters, either. ;)

Moore failed to realize that the 51% are very proud of their stupidity and relish it with gusto. They bought the image that Bush is a country boy idiot like them. They like just getting things done without thinking as all revved up robots do.

It must feel terrible for the other brilliant 49% like you to know they were owned by a bunch of ignorant robots. You'd think if that 49% was really so smart they'd have figured out a way to not let that happen. Guess they just weren't as smart as they think themselves to be after all.
