DoubleCrash: someone said "left"? huh?. Yes DoubleCrash, since youve chosen to single me out, I said left. I said, that here in the U.S. he is considered a liberal-leftist, I said nothing more than that about him. I decided to just stop there so as not to add further controversy to the topic at hand, something you somehow seem fit not to take into account and treat with impunity. Fact is, on the question of Michael Moore, not only is he considered leftist but some would go as far as calling him a socialist, something the majority of Americans frown upon. Personally I think hes just a political hack with socialistic inclinations with an agenda to grind and wouldnt give him much more credit than that. It has been factually shown and documented how he has contrived, misrepresented, taken out of context and filled with innuendos many of his most poignant scenes in his so-called documentaries. In short, hes a spin meister. In fact, theres a book out about that very subject giving the actual sequence of events as they happened in reality and how he managed to portray them. I wouldnt spend my hard earned, good American money to see his trash but thats just me. This is not to say that we are in denial, and that certain problems dont exist but you can point the lime light on anything and make it appear as good as it can be or as bad as it can be. We also understand that our definition of left is not the same as European left but were on the other side of the world. You make the mistake of assuming that we dont know about your leftist TV programs, newspapers and books. Yes, you Europeans are a strange lot. 88%? Well here, where it matters most, particularly to the voting, tax-paying American citizens, the presidential elections are running hotly neck in neck, right down the middle. Ultimately it will boil down to which issue is deemed more important to the American public, the war on terrorism or middleclass economics. Kerry is not perceived to be strong on terrorism and Bush is perceived week on keeping American jobs at home although the economic indicators show the economy slowly rising under his administration. We shall have to wait and see which one prevails.
