[ObiWanGinobiliTopFan]

****PEOPLE, PLEASE READ MY COMMENTS IN THE YOUTUBE VIDEO “MICHAEL MOORE VISITS MADISON”!!! (THEY BEGIN ON COMMENT PAGE 2)

@ObiWanGinobiliTopFan No one fucking cares

[SporeGod42]

"They are possibly the dumbest people on the planet...." -Michael Moore, speaking of his fellow Americans

[tomitstube]

i'll never forget when *t.v. nation* came out. i didn't watch much t.v. in those days but i remember thinking "finally, something on t.v. that tells the truth!"

[jaymthegenius]

Additionally, racism and bigotry has had an indirect effect on the environment. What motivated whites to move from the city? (where they still had to drive to work) Suburban sprawl has created a lot of wastes by taking up more land for shops and houses, in addition to the need for more gas consumption to work in the cities. Many streets in various cities were expanded to accommodate said commuters at the expense of the often poor local populations. "Retrofitting Suburbia" is a good book.

[adhdal]

isn't that a plastic bin? lol

[porscheghcje]

Free energy is finaly here!But the Oil coporations life depends on covering this up,Get a motor that works with the power of magnets only at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,Be a part of the energy revolution!

[albertmarriner]

anything at all with "michael moore", and "the truth" in the same sentence is guaranteed to not only bring on fits of laughter, but to also give his followers the chance to put their ignorance on display for all the world to see!!!

[uchihaangelus]

@albertmarriner Michael Moore may be an entertainer at heart but the issues he presents and his views on it are a fascinating look at how the American way of life is slowly eroding away.

[albertmarriner]

@uchihaangelus yes, it's eroding away because morons pay attention to what fat, filthy rich entertainers, insulated by their wealth have to say when they bloviate self righteously to those of us who work for a living. anyway, you're not even in america, why don't you worry about our own shitheap of a country??

[SeerSucker1981]

@albertmarriner this guy obviously has a hard on for Moore. He must be into bears or something.

[SeerSucker1981]

@albertmarriner prove him wrong. fox news couldnt do it. neither could CNN. and have you been paying attention to Wendell Potter, former CIGNA executive? why dont you look him up and then tell us Moore is wrong and who has americans interests best at heart.

[albertmarriner]

@SeerSucker1981 prove michael shitbag moore wrong?? okay, here's something i'm sure all you michael moore disciples are well aware of: you know that cartoon in bowling for columbine, the one that equates the NRA being founded with the end of the klan? well, anyone who knows even the most basic facts about american history knows that the NRA was formed by UNION VETERANS! not ex klansmen! if you think that fuck has your best interest at heart, you should shorten your name to just "sucker" lol

[SeerSucker1981]

@albertmarriner michael moore never said the KKK was also the NRA. um...wow...he did say they both sprung up roughly around the same time, after the civil war. so...wow, you fail. really? thats the best you can do?

[albertmarriner]

@SeerSucker1981 yeah, you really need some help watching his crap, because it has klansmen taking off their hoods aand spinning the kkk sign around so that it says NRA. also, it says the whites were lazy, and didn't want to work, which "brings us to the genius idea of slavery" have you ever read "stupid white men?" remember the chapter called "kill whitey?' who does he say invented slavery? white men. slavery has been going on for thousands of years, and still goes on in africa today.

[SeerSucker1981]

@albertmarriner it didnt say whites were lazy, it said the southern land owners were...which they were. or drunk on mint juleps, either way, black people and free labor were the backbone of their economy, and by freeing the slaves, their economy took a blow.

[albertmarriner]

@SeerSucker1981 it must be nice to live in a fantasy world, completely disregarding historical fact. i wouldn't know, i don't do it

[SeerSucker1981]

@albertmarriner right. and your world of reality, which consisted of 6 years of total republican control resulted in the utopia we live in today...with no twin towers, in a depression, in a 4 trillion dollar war, in debt...way to go, sparky! Thanks for showing us what a wonderful group you are!

[albertmarriner]

@SeerSucker1981 i'm not a republican, and i didn't support bush, and i really love the fact that the best you can come up with in reponse to my reply is to bleat stereotypes "4 legs good, 2 legs baaaad" as far as attacking his personal life, do you know what the word 'hypocrite" means? i think it'shilarious that he has a movie called "capitalism, a love story", when he's a filthy rich fat piece of shit. oh, that's right, you're a liberal. your word for hypocrite is "hero"..

[SeerSucker1981]

@albertmarriner oh, so you area libertarian, which means you think people should get high on heroin and own machine guns and bazookas. you obviously didnt see the movie capitalism. i love how all you people can do is attack moore and not the content of his films. Ron Paul agreed with everything mike said in capitalism. if you seriously think there is nothing wrong with the way corporatism has been practiced in america, you are fucked in the head. now go watch the movie.

[albertmarriner]

@SeerSucker1981 so, you agree with blatant hypocrisy?? i notice you haven't addressed that issue about your boyfriend. no, i'm not a libertarian, i just know a fucking charlatain when i see one. i guess it's cool to you that he made charlton heston out to be a racist in bowling for columbine? the guy who marched with king, and had an interracial kiss on film in omega man? or he charged the survivors and families of the victims of the massacre admission to see the movie? nice little sheep!

[SeerSucker1981]

@albertmarriner where is the hypocrisy? see, thats another big dumb idiot mistake on your part: The assumption that if someone doesnt agree with you, they must be communists. Mike moore never makes a case against capitalism in the film. He makes a case against the way it is currently being practiced, and basically proves that it is capitalist in name only. mike never said he didnt believe in capitalism, nor did he advocate marxism or anything, nor am i or most people in america anti-capitalist.

[albertmarriner]

@SeerSucker1981 i'm done playing with you. michael shitbag more is scum, and you are a moron for supporting such an obvious capitalist , and i no longer feel the need to waste my time with you. i can only pity you, because it seems you're willfully duped. well, more power to you. i prefer to stay in the real world..

[SeerSucker1981]

@albertmarriner ...but you are obviously a light weight retard who still doesnt get it, still doesnt know what hes talking about, still makes assumptions about the other side, still hasnt seen the material he is so zealously against, still makes unfounded character assassinations rather than address the information in the films, is completely uninterested in any perspective other than limbaughs and glenn becks...sigh..and you did what i expected: when challenged, you are suddenly "done" with me.

[albertmarriner]

@SeerSucker1981 and.. you didn't reply to my either of my assertions about bowling for columbine, you make the assumption that if i don't agree with your fantasy then i'm only interested in "limbaugh and beck" (don't stereotype much, do ya?) i love how you leftists elevate your heroes, no matter how horrid they are, if it's someone as evil as che, or someone as retarded as michael moore, up to godlike status..it's actually really pathetic. have you ever met the guy? i have. good day,

[SeerSucker1981]

@albertmarriner actually yes i did. and as far as love affairs go, i noticed you have been trolling this video for over a month. Settle down there, Kathy Bates...and i think its funny how you bring up stereo typing, but then turn around and assume all leftists worship che guevara. i mean..wtf is so horrid about moore? hes just a guy who says stuff that happens to be true and factual. if you cant accept that, get lost you wierdo stalker faggot. and yes, i have met him.

[SeerSucker1981]

@albertmarriner next time you want to run your mouth about a movie, make sure you watch it first. it kinda helps. now i hear glenn beck calling, go run to him! Hes ready to nurse you with his fat tits!

[albertmarriner]

@SeerSucker1981 "wierdo stalker faggot?" isn't that hate speech? i also love how you guys say that anyone who disagrees with you is "trolling." typical leftist response. it's like the whole when bush was president, dissent was "the highest form of patriotism" (now, you can say i support bush, because i made that statement) but since the kenyan stole the white house, dissent is "divisive and and unpatriotic" your "stalker faggot" comment proves your a hypocrite. but wait, you're a leftist.

[albertmarriner]

@SeerSucker1981 so, you're not a hypocrite, you're a "patriot" you guys are all the same. just remember this. the majority of americans consider you and your ilk, and your boyfriend a fucking joke. at least the ones who actually work for a living do.. "faggot"

[albertmarriner]

@SeerSucker1981 but you wanna know what the funniest part is? you're actually arguing with me in defense of someone who a) doesn't know you exist (oh, that's right, you met him too. that means your boyfriend loves you back!) and b) he couldn't car eless if you exist or not! also you prop up this doughboy, and then (again with the trademark "tolerant leftist" stereotype, assuming i'm a beck fan) call beck fat! you're just comedy gold!!

[SeerSucker1981]

@albertmarriner right...you and alex jones are perfectly rational people. give yourselves a pat on the nuts!

[MetusModus]

USA a legal joke from north to south from east to west.

[RobsMemoryLane]

Michael should be able to sue them civilly and get money from them for abusing their power.

[MILLSTREETMED]

WE ARE SUPOSE TO LIVE IN A REPUBLIC NOT A DEMOCRACY. READ UR HISTORY. LISTEN TO KENNEDYS SPEECH LEARN THE PLEDGE TO UR USA FLAG THEY DONT TEACH ANY LONGER. WAKE THE HECK UP USA

[adiosucks123]

@MILLSTREETMED Are you in the public schooling system? They do teach us about it. You get yelled at like me if you refuse to blindly say the pledge.

[photrick]

@MILLSTREETMED Hey man your caps are on

[A1sausie]

@sparky253199  GO SUCK A DICK!

[Guttan2k]

@sparky253199 Go fuck urself fucking ignorant patriot pig

[go2infowarsdotcom]

@Guttan2 patriot should not be used as an insult.

[Yakusa2deatH]

detroit lions hat...classic!

[photrick]

@Yakusa2deatH You should see his documentary about Flint, Michigan.

[xKS616]

win. WIN

[bosman1988]

LOL @ 6:22

[happyslothy]

Was he the voice on a Christmas story?

[kasmember17]

Why would we want information coming from us at on direction different perspectives keep us investigating and differ view arise. Take compute and if you find it relevant then apply.

[AlternativeFix]

Why are so many people commenting on his life?

Thats irrelevant. So what if he may be hypocritical in some aspects, A lot of people feel strongly about things they, themselves do wrongly. But fact is, he brings the best things to the public eyes, trying to change the view on the world.

He may not follow everything he says, but he states the facts and everything and shows the world, the real world. So get your mind of him personally, and put it on his work.

Simple as that.

[mikodelick]

@AlternativeFix amen to that

[WillHurricane]

@AlternativeFix His personal life is not even close to the biggest issue here. He has an agenda. Are you not bright enough to see that? Everyone with a brain has an agenda, and only the extremely dimwitted don't get that point. The real point to be made is that he spins the truth, gives only the shots that support his creedo and in the process pulls the wool over the eyes of the simple common sheep like you. Wake up brainiac.

[go2infowarsdotcom]

@WillHurricane Of course he has an agenda. In my opinion he's not out for himself. He honestly believes what he is saying is best for everyone. There are things I don't agree with him on. I think he is naive but he has good intentions.

[SeerSucker1981]

@WillHurricane right. we should stop listening to moore and only trust corporate approved ideas and messages. I wish mike was moore like Fox News. you know, Fair and Balanced...

[SeerSucker1981]

@AlternativeFix the reason they focus on his personal life is because they dont have the balls to attack his points made in his films...because they really are accurate and true. to this day, Dr. Gupta, CNN, and Fox News cant pop a hole in Sicko or Capitalism: A love story.

[audiowiz]

Conan's interview! HAHA!

[Freccia6000]

The Awful Truth=Giuliani

[ofthebloodywaters]

Best part of the whole video is the guy who leans over and hugs the girl at 8:27, right side of the screen. As if seeing Michael Moore burn a restraining order is so romantic.

[spleenitcher]

Maybe fire just turns him on?

[01Caroline]

"...double burning..."  Haha! What a brave American man! A true patriot.

[0penuriis]

kinda hypocritacal considering Moore has a restraining order against a former employee for standing up with a megaphone during one of his talks, an idea he got from Michael Moore.

[DivineWisdom777]

i love michael moore he dosent take bullshit from anyone and always says what he feels like this guys really is awsome

[semiLivedj]

who cares how he lives or what he does,its what he brings to the public eye and gives people awarness,you said he hates america,is that just your opinion or do you have some sort of proof,or do you feel he is unamerican because he ask questions about how the govt.makes decisions or what not.

[kwil46]

Me ,personally, I dont care how he lives.But its very hypocritical of him. And do you accept his docudramas without proof? Much like Gore, a lot of his "facts" are opinionated reaserach

[SuperMMfan]

kwil46 I'm glad you don't stand for all americans as I thought democracy was based on freedom of speech

[kwil46]

In what way did I decry freedom of speech? I applaud Moores right to speak. I am just weary of hypocrites like him who complain about everything while at the same time utilizing the very things he is complaining about.And if America is so terrible,why does he not leave? Why?

[PrintScrn12]

You don't have to leave if it is a democracy because you have the ability to make change.

[DWsk84girl]

i know moore should be president.

[PNI2]

YES

[youtubalisation]

no, he only noes how to complain and pick people errrors. He dun have any good policies either

[BadDr3ams]

I'm pretty sure the show is not around anymore, but you can still find all the clips!

[moneyman237952]

Chicago is this where this show is based i didn't even know he had a show do you guys know if it still goes on? I'd love to go especially me being from chicago and all

[s7ightly4ltered]

yay conan

[GooseTarget]

Front page headline: "Bin Laden Found Eating Rocks."

[xStacinatorx]

I saw that! lol...I guess that's what Muslims eat...If a news station were to say that on t.v....people would believe them.

[Makron5]

This was filmed in 1999-2000 so this means only one thing: Michael Moore was behind 9/11!

[preachersaredumb]

This man should be our president.

[saxdude3]

Yeah, but we have a pretty great president elect now, so I think we're fine with Moore sticking to making movies.

[SeoulMan]

Moore personally declined ever running for president, plenty of times.

[WillHurricane]

@preachersaredumb Good. Fucktards like you need heroes too.

ROFL

[MiyazakiKnight]

@preachersaredumb totally. michael moore for prez

[jenn1ifer]

@preachersaredumb moore is an idiot. Bill O'rielly for president! 

[nikiegui2]

@jenn1ifer why don't you support your first statement?

[tommyt1971]

@jenn1ifer That's ALL we need right now: a guy who'll give MORE money to corporations & try to stamp out the middle class in America. And who'll spread the word of bigotry & intolerance...

[jenn1ifer]

@tommyt1971 When Reagan lowered taxes, government revenues doubled from $500 billion to $1 trillion. That brought in more money for the government. 70% of new jobs are created by small businesses, small businesses pay income tax at the individual rate, so raising any income taxes will cause there to be less capital available for small businesses which will make it harder to create jobs. Is there any other comments you want to make where I can prove you wrong?

[tommyt1971]

@jenn1ifer And while he did that, the poor class GREW & the middle class shrank. I'm looking at it from a SOCIETAL point of view. The man gave MORE economical control to big biz that did NOT stimulate the economy except for the very rich. THAT is the ultimate goal of the GOP, which has been hijacked for the past 100 yrs by the very rich of America, who only live to pay NO taxes & soak as much money as they can. Are they putting it back into the economy? NOPE.

[jenn1ifer]

@tommyt1971 Reagans tax relief unleashed a 20-year surge of entrepreneurship, as the U.S. economy tripled in size. The lasting impact of these policies can be seen in successive presidents, who ratified Reaganomics by refusing to even consider raising taxes back to their 1970s levels. Thus, America continues to benefit from lower tax rates.

[jenn1ifer]

@tommyt1971 The Reagan tax cuts replaced the deepest recession since the Great Depression with the largest 20-year boom in American history. Tax revenues actually grew faster in the low-tax 1980s than in the high-tax 1970s, and rising incomes meant the share of taxes paid by the wealthy actually increased throughout the 1980s. Millions of people who had entered the 1980s in the lowest income quintile surged to the highest income quintile by 1990.

[tommyt1971]

@jenn1ifer And while he did that, the poor class GREW & the middle class shrank. I'm looking at it from a SOCIETAL point of view. The man gave MORE economical control to big biz that did NOT stimulate the economy except for the very rich. THAT is the ultimate goal of the GOP, which has been hijacked for the past 100 yrs by the very rich of America, who only live to pay NO taxes & soak as much money as they can out of the middle class. Are they putting it back into the economy? Don't think so!

[jenn1ifer]

@tommyt1971 Women’s rights would lead to a parade of horribles, such as the drafting of women, the end of laws protecting homemakers, the end of a husband’s responsibility to provide for his family, and same-sex marriages.

[jenn1ifer]

@tommyt1971 Bill Clinton signed legislation that dropped the capital gains tax to 20%, and George bush dropped it to 15%. In each instance when the rate dropped, revenues for the tax increased- the government took in more money. In the 1980’s when the tax was increased to 28%, the revenues went down. So why raise it at all, especially when 100 million Americans own stock and would be effected?

[jenn1ifer]

@tommyt1971 And With President Bush the federal government derived 20% more revenue than with President Clinton.

[jaymthegenius]

@tommyt1971

Not only that, but they use religion as a tool to make morons who believe all non-Christians are going to some imaginary torture place vote against their interests, scapegoat migrant workers (who are devout working class Christians just like the redneck Fox News demographic) thus playing a divide and conquer game, seek to impede social and scientific progress, defend special rights for straight couples (I say keep the state and religion out of marriage), etc.

[AroundSun]

@jenn1ifer but Reagan outsourced all our jobs, and lowered taxes too much to keep up with the spending! And republicans just want wars and their all evil rich greedy warmongers. And we need to raise the minimum wage to $20 per hour, and end free trade, and bring jobs back to america, and get free healthcare, and uhm get everyone in a home, and uh make sure everyone is fed, spend more money,and um raise taxes on the rich to like 99%. THey'll still be rich. and Make the poor pay no taxes! LOL

[jenn1ifer]

@tommyt1971 Bill O’Rielly has never said anything that involves bigotry or intolerance. You need to stop your vile propaganda; and defamation.

[tommyt1971]

@jenn1ifer And Bill needs to stop HIS defamation. The man's a bigot. Not necessarily a racist, just intolerant of anyone who doesn't agree w/his Fox News-fed ideals of intolerance of anyone foreign & who isn't a white protestant. Go to Media Matters, there's tons of incidents where Bill has been a bigot, all documented.

[djnero78]

@preachersaredumb and people still wonder how the fuck regan got in office, obviously not these 79 thumbs up voters

[Muffindisaster]

:D Lol the Conana interview part! I didn't believe my dad when he told me about this! :DD Haha Michael Moore is great! Im on his side

[jogga123]

Someone was arrested,wow,there is a reason for applause.

[fatman1001]

what year was this in?

[endixi]

There should be more people like Michael Moore

He is amazing

[gopconservative78]

Osama Bin Laden buddy

[uruz88]

goconservative almost did a funny!

[whyareyousooofat]

how come he said hes not welcome at nike ??

[cesar26rj]

Excellent Michael Moore, excellent!

Fan of Brazil.

[batcivic]

Yes fat rich white men are definately champions of the poor. Just like Stalin and Hitler.

[55555steed]

Was Hitler fat?

[heavyflower]

somewhat...he had a bit of a gut lol

[salvi1113]

michael moore is a retard, but go lions!

[UnlimitedStoopidnes]

I wont judge his political views. But i want to say as a documentary director, he is great.

[carloskkgdl]

michael moore, es grande entre los grandes, quizás hay cosas en las q puedas no estar de acuerdo con él, pero teneis q admitir, que hace lo que muchisima gente no se atreteve a hacer, y dice lo que la gente quiere escuchar...

[shnausages]

Pienso que Michael Moore es grande por todas las cosas (con un capital C) de personas en el pais. Personnas de todas naciones pueden apprender de el.

[robtul12]

The are plenty socialized "communist" programs in America. You have your fire dept., police dept., libraries, public schools, post office, etc. Micheal Moore just shows the truth -- which is that the rich impoverish the poor and that 1% of the worlds population controls 90% of the world's wealth. Michael is a champion for the poor. These multi million dollar salaries and things are insane. Most people won see that much money in their lifetime. Mike is a champion for the poor.

[jpttech]

Absolutely! I NEED food to live, thus it should be free!! As should shelter, clothes..etc...seriously though, if you actually work for a living instead of living off of medicaid generally you will be okay.

[jayjayslinm]

and if you think that you must be half retarted

[noseasguey1]

Ha Ha, all he does is point out whats wrong in this country. If you dont like the truth dont watch

[lizardvalis]

Wow he appeal in a legal way that is by following the law.

[KnuxTE3000]

Michael Moore is a genius... He's just amazing.

[salp10851]

Michael Moore exposes what the government doesnt want the average American to know. The Truth! And trust me its awful.

[UTBESUX]

I don't care what the right-wing nuts say Moore is a true American. He fights for the people. I seen him save lives by fighting the corporate health insurance company HUMANA. The reasong FOX and Right wingers attack Moore is because he is a threat to the corporate dick suckers. They are Un-American as one could be!

[Kroubles]

lol
