  Uh ... Michael Moore has been a successful and patriotic filmmaker of conscience for decades now. Like most visionaries, it takes the masses a while to catch-up. Gee, I still remember the coast to coast booing he got for speaking the truth in front of a presumed 'librul' Hollywood audience. Same for Ayers who says that the lessons of the 60s; wars of aggression and civil rights, have yet to be learned [witness Prop 8 in CA].

  wow, 40% with no stake in your elections ... this is exactly why "American democracy" has become an oxymoron.

  oh, geeze, the gop/clinton/msm 'experience' meme again. please turn off yer tee vee. wasn't dubya an experienced governor of some backwater state? "due to Wright’s anti-white influence on him for over two decades." gee, i'm surprised the corporate got-cha media hasn't reported all the bad blood between obama and his mother's family. "The Rev. didn’t do him any favors." i've read this several times and it makes less sense each time. you mean his race-baiting a future president? i doubt most amerikans know anything of his sermons beyond the 'alleluia' closer the msm looped fer ya. what about the msm silence …

  hey wth, how you doing? i couldn't agree more with your observations - except the wright comment. you have obviously been influenced by the repeated loops on your tv and lou dobbs type-talking heads. these looped edits and commentary were provided by the same fascist media you realize is lying to you. i found nothing in the full context of his sermons (i've seen two - try utube) that was actually offensive or wasn't true from one tribe's point of view. the real problem is all the tribal fingerpointing going on in the name of righteousness.

  another thing no one discusses is that george w. bush didn't win in 2000 or 2004, privately owned touch screens and central tabulator software and voter roll caging by crosspoint did. (yes, it's documented do your own research) his occupation of the white house is a fraud sanctioned by the judiciary branch of government. that should scare every american, yet your corporate media is too busy pleasing sponsors to discuss it. 2008 is near and these tools of election fraud are still in use - don't believe a close election - only 23% want a third term for bush. a democratic …
