12 reasons Michael Moore scares me

"The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not "insurgents" or "terrorists" or "The Enemy." They are the REVOLUTION, the minutemen, and their numbers will grow -- and they will win

"Wow this guy is so far from reality I almost feel bad for him. Maybe we can get him a pie or cake or something to make him like us Americans a little more."

you do realise nobody else on livejournal would say this besides you. since when do you feel all american pride for killing innocent people because their skin is brown?

exactly. and butterfly, as crazy as he sometimes sounds, listen the shit spewing outa Bushes mouth. 'weapons of mass destruction'? the only weapon ive ever seen capable of mass destruction is his power.

[drbutterfly]

Of course we have all heard Bush evoking Weapons of mass destruction, but what many people do not know is the incredible amount of lawmakers on both sides of the aisle who regularily made comments about the danger of Iraqi WMD's before the war. I have literally a book of quotes showing what democrats said a year or 2 ago. You may be surprised at how similar these quotes are to those of Bush.

"F*ck all these small businesses - f*ck 'em all! Bring in the chains. The small businesspeople are the rednecks that run the town and suppress the people. F*ck 'em all. That's how I feel."

this is taken way out of context. anyway its the republicans who like big evil businesses.

"There's a gullible side to the American people. They can easily be misled. Religion is the best device used to mislead them"

Duh, you dont think this is true? why then do we have wars on non-christans? feaaaaaar of the big bad towelheads.

"White people scare the crap out of me..."

You scare the crap out of me kyle. you are white.

"(Americans) are possibly the dumbest people on the planet... in thrall to conniving, thieving, smug pricks. We Americans suffer from an enforced ignorance. We don't know about anything thats happening outside our country. Our stupidity is embarrassing."

Very true.... have you ever read the newspaper in europe, a lot of other stuff going on. How often do you hear about the massacures going on in south america and africa in

Its funny to see you defend a man with so much hatred. In his own words he hates Whites, small business owners, Religious people, and most of all Americans. If I didnt know better I might say I detect quite a bit of racism in those comments. Ironic because Moore is infact a rich white american, the very thing he hates so much.
Imagine if Moore had said "Black people scare the crap out of me"

Also I think one other thing that stands out about these comments is Michael Moore's inability to accept reality. In his world Bin Laden is simply an old man living in a tent, who is too dumb to hurt a fly. And terrorism is all a huge hoax. This viewpoint is evident in those last few quotes.

I think these quotes are a little outdated.
(...)

You said, "Wow this guy is so far from reality..." but at least I like the fact that Michael Moore represents his own views to foster an exchange of ideas, whether for or against him.

It's like me going into a place that serves only Coke products and saying:

"F*ck all the Coke products - f*ck 'em all! Bring in the Pepsi. The Coke drinkers are the rednecks that run the town and suppress the people. F*ck 'em all. That's how I feel."

Or walking in on a vegetarian convention and proclaiming:
"Racoon is a vegetable, you #%@$%@#$%ers"

[drbutterfly]

I'll have you know racoon is too a vegetable! blaspemy!
