Mr. Lincoln went to war with half the country that didn't vote for him! BRILLIANT! In fact Michael Moore said the exact same thing about Bush after 9/11 saying only blue states were hit.
This is how it's done half truth's spun into whole lies. This should be made into a longer video.
You didn't mention Lincoln going TO WAR FOR COTTEN! NO WAR FOR COTTEN! NO WAR FOR COTTEN! NO WAR FOR COTTEN!
Americans have a cunning ability to smell the BS maybe because through time some much has been flung their way. This is an example and needless to say most of the comments reflect this fact.
Hey , dont you realize that if Michael moore was alive during the civil War , this is how he would have represented it?..There is not difference between this and the Garbage He puts out now..Half Truths , distorted facts and good old fashioned American Hating
This is a poor representation of the tragedy that is the American Civil War, and an even poorer presentation of the positions of the pre-war North and South. There is almost no fact in this video. I'm a Southern patriot, but the truth is the truth and this is not it.
Am I tou understand that Lincoln was the conservative and Pierce was the Liberal? LOL
I know Lincoln was a republican but he was the liberal candidate, republicans became the conservative party during segregation when all of the racist Dixiecrats left the democrats to form the current voting blocks we have today
Ask Pat Buchanan some time what he thinks about LIncoln
Lincoln Would have made a better Demorat than a Republican. The Moore gut would have went apesht if he went back into the times of the 1860's heh, heh...I hate Mike and for once wish one of the two demorats that ran against Lincoln had won. No Lincoln. No War perio. or is it.?
Diplomacy only works when the other side wants it to work. And history shell repeat itself soon, when 300 million Americans start killing each other; all because of people like you
Lincoln and Bush...ordering troops to invade another country instead of using diplomacy, spying on citizens, ingoring the constitution, ignoring habeas corpus...I guess history does repeat itself....
Funny, yes but a little misdirected. Michael Moore's films accurately portray the truth, granted with obvious bias (he doesn't try to make his movies objective in any case). In a bit of irony, the people in the South who hate Michael Moore's films probably would actually like this movie.
utter idiocy

Although I totally disagree with the politics represented in this piece, the video is actually a clever satire. Nicely done!

Don't like Burns or Moore, or Lincoln or Bush, so I expected to laugh...unfortunately, it wasn't far enough from the truth to be funny.

Yeah, you know, the conservative base. The south.
The people who fight court cases so they can fly the confederate flag
The people who's main guiding principle is "States Rights." As in the people who later fought de-segregation.

My heart bleeds that the Confederate Flag upsets you.Get over it.

It's especially funny for people who've seen both The Civil War and Farenheit 9/11. Nice job.

I know you're trying to be fair, but Moore's films are riddled with lies. About 160 of them very clearly pointed out in F-911
quaker91 5 years ago
He also has clear refutations on his site. If you looked them up, you would see he tries to be fairly thorough in his films.
CaeserOct 5 years ago
Well, no. When you straight out say something that is dead wrong and obviously so, there's a problem.
