Okay, so it may not be surprising to you, but to not utilize that connection as to perhaps catch public enemy #1??? To me the whole problem with Bush is that he would prefer to take care of his friends first then to serve the American people as a whole...but I suppose that's what happens when you raise record amounts for your campaign (and a vast majority of that 193 million came from just over 700 individuals).
ktsnake, one of the things that is unique about Moore's documentries (Roger & Me, Bowling for Columbine) is that they are refreshingly non-partisan...particularly Columbine. The big question in that movie is "what makes Americans so violent?" While Moore may be in favor of promoting gun safety through political action, the message of that movie is not as such.
Now Moore's book "Stupid White Men" isn't non-partisan (pro-green if anything) but it does attack actions of both Republicans and Dems...
As for all the "loony" comments, those were the same things that us liberals were saying about Rush Limbaugh when he started up...and like Rush for conservatives, Moore points out a lot of things in the government that make a lot of people go "That's not how I want my government to work." Some of the stuff Moore points out should make EVERY American question what is being done by their representatives and elected officials.
