[Colpy]

The lefty, liar SOB I most love to hate now exposed in his hypocracy!

I thought I should add, in the interests of full disclosure, that the author of "the Dirty Dozen", Gary Schneeberger (Geez, what a handle!) works with Dr. Dobson's right wing religious group, Focus on the Family.

I think the fact the book is published and Mr. Moore has NOT sued, says it all.

And exposed by a rightist organization. Lets see some corroboration from the center media. Just to be fair an impartial.

Yeah.

I edited my original post before I saw yours.......but I don't think the mainstream will get caught up in this debate for a couple of reasons......

1. Moore is rich, popular, and powerful.

2. Besides me, who cares?

Must be the work of lefty sabotuers!

heh

that's priceless

now then. what makes Moore a liar?

 

[Curiosity]

Mikey Moore is our modern day Barnum and Bailey

The first and last words which were sincere coming from his heart were out of "Roger and Me" - it was downhill from that point on.... while he busily answered the siren call of money in his purse and has become one of those he trashes.

The wisest and most cautious of us all frequently gives credit to stories which he himself is afterwards both ashamed and astonished that he could possibly think of believing . . . It is acquired wisdom and experience only that teach incredulity, and they very seldom teach it enough. - Adam Smith​

Half the truth is often a great lie. - Benjamin Franklin​

At risk of giving away the ending, my point exactly. :laughing7:

Possibly the only uncorrupted human on this planet is Mr. Ralph Nader, so I never expected M. Moore to be perfectly straight with us. So what if he makes a few bucks from this evil corporation? Heck, it's good enough for all the top guys in the Bush administration.

 

[BitWhys]

... what makes Moore a liar?

Regarding the reported stock portfolio, of course. Let's not kitchen-sink here.

 

[Zzarchov]

And why is that a liar?

He said it was evil and was being given a liscence to print money, I believe at several interviews he has said or at least implied (albiet most thought jokingly) by stock in Haliburton and you'll be set for life.

Did he own Halliburton stock at the time? Has he since?

 

[Zzarchov]

don't know, I recall thinking I should buy some stock in it though.

 

[missile]

I'd invest in anything that makes a high interest payout..no qualms at all at what the corp. makes or does. It's great being amoral!

 

[Tonington]

I believe the article said Moore had owned stock in Haliburton. He very well could have had a change of heart, though I'm skeptical of that.

IC

btw, profiting from stock in a company he's criticizing while he's criticizing it (or since, considering) would be hypocritical, but it wouldn't mean he was lying.

anybody else? Colpy? Its your point, after all.

and this would make him a liar somehow?
