Anyone care to defend this completely tasteless and nauseating piece of garbage? I'm talking about both the cover and Moore.

It's an attention grabbing cover.  I preferred the american cover, but whatever.  What exactly about it am I supposed to defend?  The cover does hint at what the film is about (high gun violence and gun obsession in america).  Because it is a controversial look at america, the tag-line works, though it sounds like it would apply to any controversial type thing.

Is it any worse than the Muslim/Jewish/African-American/You Name It stereotypes that are so common in North America?

They're all smurfed, if you ask me, and just perpetuate smurfy images.

Do you see me condoning those stereotypes? And Seargant D, I think Moore would have had to green light the cover before it went to press. It's utterly revolting.

No, I think you should be equally outraged about all stereotypes. This is no more sickening than the kind of smurf that's all around us.

The caption, when translated, says this, "You haven't yet seen America well!"

Actually, it says, "you haven't seen America like this yet."

So is it Michael Moore or the cover that bothers you?  I don't have a problem with the cover, nor the caption.  If you have a problem with Moore, then don't hide behind other ideas and ideals to attack him, just come on out like CD does and say that you dislike him without having any real rational cause.  I would venture to guess that it's because he has the balls to tell the truth and is willing to go against status quo and (gasp!) people listened and liked his honesty.  I also know that as a rabid Bush supporter, you might never know what that feels like to have someone you admire have the courage to tell the truth and have people admire that and listen.
Personally, I just think you're jealous.

mmm. . . no more disgusting then your stereotypes about grossly overweight unkempt people who don't agree with you. . .

I love hypocrisy. . . it's one of my favorite human shortcomings 'cause it's so darned FUNNY ! ! !

Moore isn't worth making a topic about IMHO.

He's been proven to be a liar over and over again.

Anyone who believes this looney needs a serious mental checkup.

Just a small correction that has no judgement about your comment at all: it's a documentary film not a book.

you're right, a friend just showed me moore's book "dude where's my country" the other day and that just slipped off my tounge.  err...typed off my fingers.

Really?  When?

Do a search for "Micheal moore" and "liar"

You'll find plenty of Micheal Moore propaganda debunking.

There was times he out right lied. And times he twisted things and took them out of context.

He is not a honest man.

He's been "proven" a liar by right wing nutbars who hate him worse than poison ... but has he been proven a liar by any normal people?

I do not consider Michael Moore, the author or the director, to be a U.S. citizen... he has certainly earned the wrath of every American and his criticism of American culture characterizes him as distinctly un-American and foreign. The next ship leaving this country should have him on it for ports unknown... does not matter. This nation would be much better without him in it.

Actually CD, those view you stated are some of the most anti-american feelings there are.

Guess what, I live in American, and I don't lock my house when I leave.

According to MM that happens in Canada, not America.

So the best example you can give is that he didn't consult you before making his documentary on whether or not you follow the door locking procedures set forth in it?
