I think you are missing the gravity of extremes that Moore will go to


"Forbes reports that an early scene in "Bowling" in which Mr. Moore tries to demonstrate how easy it is to obtain guns in America was staged. He goes to a small bank in Traverse City, Mich., that offers various inducements to open an account and claims "I put $1,000 in a long-term account, they did the background check, and, within an hour, I walked out with my new Weatherby," a rifle.

But Jan Jacobson, the bank employee who worked with Mr. Moore on his account, says that only happened because Mr. Moore's film company had worked for a month to stage the scene. "What happened at the bank was a prearranged thing," she says. The gun was brought from a gun dealer in another city, where it would normally have to be picked up. "Typically, you're looking at a week to 10 days waiting period," she says. Ms. Jacobson feels used: "He just portrayed us as backward hicks." "


Do you see what Moore did????
and you see this act as the same as Rush presenting figures in a fashion that supports his arguments - and Rush does have a point as to who pays what amout of taxes in America

There is a world of difference between outright lies and deception and uses statistics in a manner that supports your claim

Moore outright lies and deceives and claims his work is factual and accepts an Oscar for his work

Alex, do you find Moore's action acceptable?

Evil Chris the above act goes WAY beyond spin
