CSPAN: Michael Moore Speaks
This was recorded last Sunday in Genessee County, Michigan...

Sure beats watching Richard Pearle...

10. Well Worth Watching
I'm surprised I didn't hear or read about this before it came on this morning...what a pleasant surprise.

Mike's hitting the buttons and speaking truth to power...hopefully others are enjoying as well.

For cube rats...too much here to break down...well worth checking out the replay or watching the video online later on.

11. Michael Moore is doing an excellent job saying
Edited on Wed Nov-23-05 10:51 AM by Pithy Cherub
why Democrats need to renounce this war. He mentioned the campaigns of 1968 & 1972 where George McGovern & Eugene McCarthy went from voting for the war to anti-war candidates for president! Moore is mentioning the American people are a forgiving people, Dems just need to come out and admit it. He then mentioned a senator who was afraid of being called a flip flopper. MM rightfully has no patience with that type of democratic timidity! :applause:

Go Michael!

13. Holy crap, he is not pulling his punches in his criticism of either
the republicans or the democrats.

14. Oh this is excellent! I just turned him on, and I'm afraid I missed much
of it. He spoke about the major issues that defined Western Civilization, about the decline of the middle class which is subverting the values of our Nation, then talked about the Dems voting against Bankruptcy, and then about the parable of Christ when he was asked 'how does one enter the Kingdom of Heaven.' And Christ responded "Whatever you do unto the least of these, you do that also to me" (and if you didn't feed them, clothe them etc., you didn't feed or clothe me)

"You can't get into heaven without a permission slip from the poor!"

17. I'll never forget that line.
"You can't get into heaven without a permission slip from the poor!"
That line packed more punch than any I've heard in a long time.

21. He addressed the Haliburton Stock holding
Michael Moore said that it amazes him how his enemies will just make things up. He said not long ago he read that he wons stock in Haliburton. Michael said anyone who knows him knows that he has no stock in Haliburton and has never owned a share of stock in anything in his. He says that they make things up. And then he says that they don't have to make things up he has plenty of failings.
