Michael Moore

I saw part of the appearance of Michael Moore on Bill O’Reilly’s show. Whenever O’Reilly confronted Moore with some factual information, Moore would say, “Would you sacrifice your child to secure Fallujah?” That is such a slimy, demogogic, when did you quit beating your wife, question, purposely designed to create heat without light, a question that it is impossible to answer yes or no to. The legitimate question hiding within the propogandistic wrapper is, “If your child chose to volunteer to put his life at risk, in order to help liberate Iraq, would you approve of his decision?” That is a question that can be answered yes or no. Whenever questions of fact are raised, Michael Moore pulls out one of these cunning misdirections. He is obviously very bright, very quick, but there is no truth or integrity in the man.

At the Democratic convention, Michael Moore sits in the President’s box, next to Jimmy Carter. 95% of the delegates are against the war in Iraq. But if you listen to the speeches, or read the platform, you hear and see nothing about being against the war. Whenever Kerry is forced to mention the war, he sounds like George Bush, except he adds some vague rhetoric about getting more cooperation from our allies. He never says how he would do this. He never provides a serious analysis of why France, Germany, and Russia, are not supporting us. He never says what he would do different. He never provides an alternative vision of how to fight the war against Islamic fascism.

Maybe, if elected, he will turn out to be a great war president. There’s no way to tell, really. But that’s not what these delegates believe. They believe that he is secretly against the war, just like they are, just like Michael Moore is, but that he is saying what he needs to say to beat George Bush. So the anti-war crowd is gong along with the dodge. Maybe it’s a dodge, maybe it’s not. I don’t know what John Kerry would do as President. I have no idea. But I have a very clear sense of what George Bush will continue to do. I have no doubt that he will continue to confront the Islamic Jihad, the axis of evil and its satellites with all the means at his command. His perception of who are our friends, and who are not, seems very accurate to me. I will be very surprised if the voters throw him out, and put John Kerry in his place.
