Jewel, I don't remember ever discussing Michael Moore with you, or anyone else, for that matter. So why send me a post saying "more on Moore?"

I do think he brings up some excellent issues in his films, and I always enjoy seeing them. I think he is accurate most of the time. But I felt that in Fahrenheit 9/11 he did slightly mislead, because it looked like the bin Laden family flew out of the U.S. while Bush 41 and Barbara could not fly, and all the other planes were still grounded. I later found out this was not the case, or so I understand.

All in all, I feel he makes an extremely valuable contribution to the left side of the debate, but I am not a Michael Moore apologist or anything and don't really feel qualified to discuss him or his films in any depth, or defend him, really.
