Michael Moore: I'm Not in the 99 Percent!

It's not just the hypocrisy. Michael Moore's lying through his teeth on national television. It's really pathetic. At The Rhetorican, "RICH MAN, POOR MAN, YOU’RE NOT FOOLING ANYONE, MAN!"

And the key quote:

Well, then, if you believe that about me, then that’s really something, isn’t it? That, even though I do well, that I don’t associate myself with those who do well. I am devoting my life to those who who have less and who’ve been crapped upon by the system. And that’s how I spent my time, my energy, my money on trying to upend this system that I think is a system of violence; it’s a system that’s unfair to the average working person of this country, and it was a mistake to ever give me a dime, from the day Time Warner, actually, gave me money to buy Roger & Me… I hope they rue the day that they ever allowed me up on the movie screens.

Also, from Peter Wehner, at Commentary, "Michael Moore, Hypocrite and Liar":

Michael Moore on Anderson Cooper 360: 'No Terrorists in Afghanistan Anymore'

The interview's in two parts. Michael Moore is all about one outrageous comment after another. At the first clip, at 3:30 minutes, he argues that Republicans are like "the people who're still living in their parents' basement." Seriously. That whole stretch of comments is jaw dropping (he contradictorily argues that Democrats are the new conservatives while at the same time claiming the Republicans are against progress). But it's the segment at the second clip where Moore becomes the most agitated. He goes off on a bumbling rant about the how the Bush years caused these trillion dollar deficits, but when Anderson Cooper calls out President Obama the dude goes mum (and compare that to the Trotskyites, "Obama’s Reign of Terror in Afghanistan"). And Michael Moore's an icon for the progressive left? Well, yeah. He plays the race card at about 7:30 minutes at top: "It's about a black man in the White House," which events have repeatedly shown it's not. But RAAAAACISM is all the Dems have left, as we all know. And pay attention to Moore's argument that any criticism against the president is insane and racist. It'd be infuriating if it wasn't so stupid. Moore decries the "insanity" while proving that he lives in a world of make believe.
