Michael Moore on The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell, May 24, 2011 -- Part 2

"You went against Trump, and not just Trump — you went against NBC. You went against your employer. There was one of those shows I thought you were going to whip out a stopwatch, because you essentially said, 'By the end of this hour Donald Trump should be fired from this network.' How is it that you're still here? You went after NBC in a very large way and called them out on the fact that they were supporting a guy who was spewing racism." — Michael Moore on The Last Word With Lawrence O'Donnell

Once again - no discussion about habeus corpus or due process. There has never been a trial of Bin Laden... there has never been proof that he master minded 9/11. A little more nuanced thinking on this topic would have been better.

Republicans are unAmerican.

Thanks for speaking on these issues Mike.

The reason Bush didn't care is because the conspiracy involves Bush and BL.

Bin Laden evidently had a trial from 10 Am to Noon on 9-11-01. At that point he was found guilty and The Ballad of 911 was written and that's what happened and your a goddamn crazy person if you even think that it might be otherwise. Oh, and Choco rations have been doubled for the next week!

@Silvertaker

The decisions of those in power are do not represent the wishes of those without. Most Americans are unaware of any kind of dealings within the middle east. The people in these comments including you and me never funded anyone. We go on with our jobs everyday and do our best to care for those that we love. Those in power in Washington made these decisions not the American people.

@MrDavidKnopfler I never heard a direct translation but i remember the media showing one of his tapes while saying that he confessed to being behind the 9.11 attacks

@judyleasugar97 Really? It seems you are the one in denial of the facts. I am glad they got him too - he was definitely a religious fanatic (although all religious are fanatics, really) and a murderer. I am just saying, if you are so glad they got him, are you also willing to express a desire to see the American leaders who handed him power be called guilty of every one of his crimes? Because they are.

@Silvertaker: I'm glad they got Bin Laden. Obviously you are not listening to me, so let it go.

[Silvertaker]

Have you ever look at the film of him talking about being behind 9/11 - and then looked at a picture of the guy? Please. We created Al Qaeda both with our money and with our foreign policies. All I am saying is that the buck doesnt stop with bin Laden. Neither did it stop with Hussein - another former ally WE funded and put in power. Those men were both guilty of horrible crimes BUT, blaming them alone is like blaming a gun in the hands of a murderer.
