I have to agree with Hayley here. I don't think the article is that bad, it's just the argument to Michael Moore's side of things. Though I don't see why people can keep pointing out that Bush captured Sadam when it's been shown that there was no connection between him and 9/11 and that there were no weapons of mass destruction found.

articles that argue michael moores side of things work against the message he is trying to portray and that is that civilians on both sides were killed for no good reason other than for oil and money.

your right, that is a fact, but there is so much that has happened that you can't wrap up the entirety of it in that one statement. Besides the point that that is far from the only message michael moore has. All I'm saying is that everyone can have their own opinion and should make there own choices. I think the article serves it's purpose. It does work against the message that Moore is trying to portray, and that is a good thing, it lets people see both sides of the argument and then decide for themselves. Following either side without hearing both sides makes you a sheep.

its true casey, that everyone should have their own opinion... but when the government of a country is lying about a war they went ahead with, that was protested all around the world, and that NATO wouldnt back up - because of a so called terrorist threat, and then go on to say that they have LIBERATED a country , when all they did was kill a bunch of civilians for no god damned reason ----- that should all be exposed and then people should make up their own opinions..
the guy who wrote that article was speaking as if michael moores movie was a complete fabrication , even though he never saw it.. the guy was basically saying: lies!! all lies!! bush did good! god bless bush for striking down the enemy who was jealous of our FREEDOM

I realize that. He is basing his opinions on very little information. It is an ignorant viewpoint. It's still a valid view point.
And I never said that they were right, in fact I don't think I once stated which side I'm on.
I've simply felt the need to argue in an asshole kind of way because I don't like being told what I should believe. Both sides in this argument are doing that and it's wrong.
