2. abrams is right
Moore's endorsement is a loser for Obama.
If Moore really cared about the election more than
he cares about his place in the limelight, he
would have kept quiet.

3. Just a thought :p
Hillary's running is a loser for the Democratic Party.
If Hillary really cared about the election more than
she cares about her place in the limelight, she
would have quit.

4. He posted it on his own personal website.
He's not allowed to express his own opinions on his own website now?

5. That would depend on narrow the mind is of the person listening, wouldn't it?
I mean, his documentaries are hugely successful and he's been telling it like it is even when it makes us wince from time to time. So far, so good with no pending lawsuits regarding slander of anyone in his films, so what's been filmed must be true, question is, can we handle the truth?

Thus, if his endorsement is a "loser" for Obama then we're all f***ed, aren't we?

America would then prove time and time again (although we're slow to learn any lessons) that it's no longer the "Land of the Free" but the "Home of the Mentally Enslaved"; it's no longer a democracy but a fascist state where huge corporations can tell us universal health-care is satanism and taking slave wages for hard work is a compassionate thing to do for America's top earners. Things like that would never pass muster in broad-minded, liberal Europe.

Could it be that the American people are too dumb and too lazy to get the truth so widely available on the Internets and instead would rather have propaganda spoon-fed to them?

If that's the case, then yes, Dan Abrams is right to believe that a Michael Moore endorsement is detrimental to Obama.

To me, a person who loves the 1st Amendment, it's just another voter who will cast his vote in favor of (hopefully) change and end this dynastic era of elites acting like "your average Joe or Jane" when they're clearly NOT.

6. I so agree with your statement and I will further say that if the MSM
had done their job as well as Mr Moore did on F9/11 this war may not had happen, saving thousands of lives!

The MSM mention the endorsement by Mr Moore and made fun of it but failed to mention what was said about the Clintons need of Reverend Wright during their darkest hours of Monica Lewinsky!

7. Exactly! Then again, it's in their best interest to have Hillary win...
...because they are, after all, corporations and with Hillary's win, it will be, like with the Penn state win, a win for McInsane.
