84. Hey, stopthenoise! Since you brought it up...
could you elaborate on what's wrong with the "integrity" of Roger and Me, please? Are you saying that GM did NOT slam the door on the Autoworkers of this country? Were the eighties all just a bad dream?

It truly isn't necessary to be objective when one feels a righteous rage at the decimation of an entire class of people. Try witnessing the reduction of a certain working-class elite, which is what the UAW once was, full of the big American Myth, gradually smashed down to nothingness, lumpens on the street & piddling prison-fodder for this corporate machine we call the USA! Live it, then get back here & tell us how you feel!

If "crazed loon" (or lune, as you put it) is all you get from Michael Moore, might I suggest that you may need to listen to him a little less subjectively & think about where he's coming from when you watch his flicks. He ain't no Democrat but he's a Working Class Hero when it comes to trying to drive home his point about what is wrong in America.

I don't necessarily agree with everything he's done either, but I certainly admire him for his effort! He has the right idea & he's definitely gotten more attention than any "party leader"!
