I do listen and watch something else. What I resent is being forced to pay $60/year to fund Canada's Pravda. Aah, come on Monty. Where else can you get such quality programming for mere pennies a day.

Nah, the pervert just settled out of court. Maybe this wholesome family guy talks about it his book: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/006054424...glance&n=283155

I'd describe it like this: A political inspired rant by politically partisan attack dog Michael Moore is an all out attack on any type of lifestyle that doesn't agree with his own. Brilliant portrayed ignorance of reality, and ignorance of facts, is sure to entertain your Democrat urbanite family for hours! If you hate people that aren't the same as you, watch this movie, as it will give you so many misleading, out of context clips of interview that your head will be spinning in awe of his arrogance! 4 piles of B.S. out of 5! --nd in movies. I will not deal with Michael Moore, he has no ethical standards and is a blatant fear mongerer. Certainly no bias there.

If you're still on the semantic thing, give it up. The real issue is that Al Gore was right on global warming. An interesting article: http://www.workingforchange.com/article.cfm?ItemID=20869

injusticebuster, don't give up man. I can relate somewhat to your situation. At the age of 42 I suddenly found myself disabled with multiple sclerosis. I later develped bi polar disorder. But what got me through was the fact that I did have something to offer: myself. Volunteerism has been my salvation. geoffrey is right. You have to take responsibility and find your métier, your niche. Best of luck and hang in there.

Apples and oranges geoffrey. Murderers in Canada don't kill for a living on orders from the Government. Much abuse is condoned by military commanders upon prisoners. Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo are cases that we know about, tips of the iceberg perhaps?

August, how would you describe this movie? I think the writer did an excellent job in setting it up for the viewer. But each must decide for themselves the merit of Michael Moore's film making. Is the promo biased? Not in my opinion.

I'll give you that. But it's pretty obvious Iraq war is the case for desertion, whether some of them have served or not. My point is not everyone who "signed up" is crazy about serving in Iraq.

Those stupid Americans got suckered again. They were too dumb to understand the flip-flo, er I mean, the nuance of John Kerry. When is the last time that the Dems got 50+ percent of the popular vote? 1976. I doubt that the "bulk" of the 51% were evangelical Christian groups. And even if it was, so what? Don't they count? Or do only secularist groups count? Kerry's campaign backed down from his Walter Mitty-like tale of secret missions in Cambodia on Christmas Eve 1968 at the behest of President Nixon--even though Nixon was not president then. Kerry's campaign also admitted that one of Kerry's Purple Hearts *might* have come from a self-inflicted wound. SBVFT: 2 Kerry: 0 Oh yes. The notoriously rightwing biased MSM. Just off the top of my head: The bogus 380 tons of Weapons of Mass, er Medium Destruction that disappeared right under the nose of the US military; Rathergate; the Associated Press reporting that Bush supporters booed when Bush wished Clinton well on his upcoming heart surgery. Story after story describing the SBVFT as "the discredited SBVFT." Even Newsweek managing editor, Evan Thomas, admitted that the MSM was going to portray Kerry/Edwards in a good way and that would be good for about 15 points for Kerry. Thomas must've been zapped by Karl Rove's Mind Control Ray Gun when that slipped out. One of the rare times I agree with you. Bush should've listened to the House Republican immigration plan, not the Senate and its RINOS plan. And they just might lose Congress. They were so close to a majority that would've prevented any filibustering by the Dems, the constant obstructing by the Dems who are dividers, not uniters--and the Repubs are going to blow it. Idiots! :angry: A few things: 1. Bush didn't win the popular vote in 2000, Al Gore did, but SCOTUS ushered Bush him in ignoring valid votes in Florida that would have tipped the balance in Gore's favour. 2. Bush won 51% of popular vote to 48% to Gore, Like I said a huge difference. 3. Swift boat: I refer you to this site for the true and accurate account of the B.S. that organization tried to pull off. http://swiftvets.eriposte.com/ 4. Oh, and the missing weaponry and explosives in Iraq: Further, a joint analysis by the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) and the proliferation section of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) indicated in November 2004 that several thousand shoulder-fired missiles are missing in Iraq. The missiles could be used to shoot down aircraft. As many as 4,000 surface-to-air missiles from Saddam Hussein’s regime are also unaccounted for, and as many as 6,000 such missiles worldwide are not under the control of any government. The Iraq Survey Group’s October report said that as many as 36 al-Samoud missiles, 34 Fatah missiles, and 600 missile engines remain unaccounted for. Further, several vials of anthrax and botulinum are missing, as are 550 155mm mustard gas shells. U.N. inspectors destroyed at least 13,000 such shells, but 550 were never found.http://www.iraqwatch.org/update/ Not to mention some 380 tons of explosives powerful enough to detonate nuclear warheads that are missing from a former Iraqi military facility that was supposed to be under American control - from the International Atomic Energy Agency. So, there you have it. So believe what you want Monty.

I didn't realize how big of a problem literacy was on this forum.

Seems like the Brits are getting a little tired of Iraq. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,7374-2201471,00.html

One more time, the quote in question: I believe it is appropriate to have an over-representation of factual presentations on how dangerous (global warming) is... The dictionary has this to say of the word over-representation - Represented in excessive or disproportionately large numbers. So for those having trouble with the English language, this means (in context) that Gore feels the factual information should be presented many times. Hardly nuance, just plain english. Sheesh.

It doesn't matter what party you are, this is funny. Monologue taken from a show on Canadian TV. There was a black comedian who said he misses Bill Clinton. "Yep, that's right - I miss Bill Clinton! He was the closest thing we ever got to having a black man as President. Number 1- He played the sax. Number 2- He smoked weed. Number 3- He had his way with ugly white women. Even now? Look at him... his wife works, and he don't! And, he gets a check from the government every month. Manufacturers announced today that they will be stocking America's shelves this week with "Clinton Soup," in honor of one of the nations' most distinguished men. It consists primarily of a weenie in hot water. Chrysler Corporation is adding a new car to its line to honor Bill Clinton. The Dodge Drafter will be built in Canada. When asked what he thought about foreign affairs, Clinton replied, I don't know, I never had one. The Clinton revised judicial oath: "I solemnly swear to tell the truth as I know it, the whole truth as I believe it to be, and nothing but what I think you need to know."

That's not true. The MSM despised Reagan. Only when he died did they generally hail him as a great prez, so as not to look hopelessly out of touch with the public--like in the 80s when the public adored Reagan and the MSM detested him and his values. I challenge that. The media gave him a free ride most of the time during his tenure. Read Mark Hertsgaard's On Bended Knee: The Press and the Reagan Presidency for some insight.

Yeah, and the only President to be elected the first time around by the SCOTUS.

My Lai all over again.

The poll of the father lay now at the feet of the son. Interesting article. http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/national/115...sh_vs_Bush.html

They don't seem to be operating on all cylinders gerry. Unfortunately, thousands have died for this bogus war. How bloody sad. They need to wake up and smell the white phosphorus.

Refresh my memory. Who did the voters elect in November/2004 after "lie after lie?" Nobody said he and Karl Rove weren't good at lying. The bulk of the 51% vote (whooping big victory) came out of Chrisitian coation territory (evangelical Christian groups), and you remember Bush is a born (cough-cough) again Christian. Plus the totally bogus character assassination of John Kerry re Boat Swift Veterans didn't hurt. And like I said, even the media gave him a free ride. But the times are a changing Monty. Have you checked out Bush's approval rating lately? Do a google on republicans against Bush. Might surprise you. Congress after the midterm elections will tell the tale. Then we'll talk.

Have you been following the story as it's unfolded? Are you aware of the accusations by Congressman Murtha? Are you aware that it's pretty much established now that these soldiers committed murder as an act of revenge? Sure, sh#t happens. And when it happens, it's our duty to scream it from the roof-tops so the next squad that's reaching the edge might remember this and the fallout and step away from that edge. Don't look at everything as either "pro-war" or "anti-war". Sometimes morality needs to win the day. Right on. The neocons left "morality" out of the formula when concocting the Iraq war.

Why do you "righties" continue to ignore and cover for Bush?? Did he not say the following? We found the weapons of mass destruction. We found biological laboratories. [bush on Polish TV, 5/29/03] The biological labratory claim was false but yet the administration still pedalled. it. But of course, I know you "righties" want to spin it, like the comments that Rumsfelt made about the same item. ("We know where the WMD are) Well, I don't read minds. I take people at their words. And the above is a LIE. Comparing this to Clinton is ridiculous.He was embarrased and trying to protect his family, and he did pay for that. But Bush is not accoutable to anyone, except the voters. Even the media buys Bush's lies. http://www.thenation.com/doc/20021125/alterman. So in the meantime, it's lie after lie. We'll see how the cards stack in November. Impeachment is still very possible.

Well call me a nutbar then. But the repubs can justifiy spending how many million trying to catch Clinton in a lie and dear leader not only blatanly lies, he caused thousand of deaths on a lie. He didn't just "make a few mistakes" with his hokey language. Try and think outside the box occasionally.

and the title of this thread.

Naci Sey, your take on it is right; that's exactly what Gore is saying. The title of this thread is very misleading.
