Michael Moore’s list of top 6 ways Obama can lose this race includes denouncing him:
I remember poor John Kerry not even being able to admit, when asked by Larry King, if he had seen Fahrenheit 9/11. “No,” he said, “I haven’t. . . . I don’t plan to, right now.” But he had indeed seen it. I sat there watching him say this, and I just felt sorry for him and for the election he was about to lose.
We can’t take four more years of this madness, Barack. We need you to be a candidate who will fight back every time they attack you. Actually, don’t even wait till you have to fight back. Fight first! Show some vision and courage and smoke them out. Keep asking why these lobbyists are McCain’s best friends. Let’s finally have a Democrat who’s got the balls to fire first.
So Barack, by denouncing me, you can help McCain get elected. Because when you denounce me, it’s not really me you’re distancing yourself from — it’s the millions upon millions of people who feel the same way about things as I do. And many of them are the kind of crazy voters who have no problem voting for a Nader just to prove a point.
Poor Michael Moore, he believes that Kerry lost because he lied about seeing his movie. Um…hasn’t Moore heard of the Swift Boats for Truth? Maybe he should help Obama out by keeping quiet this election cycle. Could Moore keep his ego in check long enough to ensure Obama’s election by not saying anything stupid. I’m betting he couldn’t ![]()
So, Obamanites, would you vote for Nader if Barack denounces Moore?

maybe he can continue to help obama out by being the left’s answer to the swift-boaters (since you brought them up). he can attack mccain in the ways that obama has refused to. there’s no reason anymore that liberals should play by rules of a higher standard since mccain threw out that idea in favor of the old republican playbook.
moore can invest his money as his own 527 and show mccain for the pandering phony that he is, who will say anything and do anything (including using his p.o.w. past for the pity vote, using soldiers as a campaign backdrop, tossing his principals out of the window when some polling shows that a small majority favor offshore drilling, and locking his lips to the ass of the religious right that he denounced just a few years ago) to win an election.
again yesterday, obama chastised a person from his audience and defended mccain’s military record. and mccain isn’t man enough to shun the cover to cover lies in corsi’s book smearing obama, even though corsi has nothing nice to say about mccain either.

Michael Moore is a nut, he sees shadows in the night. I did see Farhanheit 9/11 and I found that his arguments could be seen as a half truth. Which was better than Bush’s out right lies.
Should Obama denounce him? No he should not! Why? because even though Michael Moore is a nut, it doesn’t make him wrong. If fact, if Obama did reject Mr. Moore, it would hurt more than help because people may like a war hero, but they don’t always vote for them. After all, they rejected Bob Dole and he was a true hero, not a paper one one like JKF.
The difference between the two candidates is basically that Obama is a true American who fights on the streets of Chicago trying to better the lives of those who lost jobs to overseas competition and McCain is a war pilot who was a POW. Both served their country in was that can be admired, the question is who to you want to lead the country, a tired soldier (like IKE) or a reformer (like FDR)? These are two good men, and as my parents lived through the great depression and WWII, I grew up knowing that it isn’t easy picking a good leader. But at this crossroads of
American life, I feel that we need the reformer more than the war hero. eight years ago I would have said, and I did, that we needed a war hero but Kerry wasn’t the hero we needed.

This is a sign of panic and desperation from LEFTISTS. LEFTISTS cannot win on LEFTIST ideology. And now even Michael Moore can’t smoke his way into fantasy land on this one. Even in the response by “Reincarnato the Ridiculous” above, one can see the panic of the LEFTY LIBS and the realization of their dismantling.
From Micheal Moore all the way down to Reincarnto, we have panic and attempts at long ball shaming tactics, as well as an ALREADY evident acquiescence to the truth that the sand castle of The Obamanation is crumbling.
So if you happen to be on a leisurely drive and pass by “Panic Palace” you can be sure if you knock on the door some whining, complaining, scared to death LEFTY LIBS will be answering.

panic? no. sorry to disappoint yet another wrong analysis of yours, king of the short bus.
as for “shaming tactics” there’s nothing i can do for mccain if he isn’t already ashamed for his own actions. i’m only pointing out the facts. if mccain could do as well as obama for not distorting reality and for being respectful of the other candidates, i could at least honor him for that while still despising the undercurrent of mud slinging by swift-boaters and talk radio celebs.
however, i appreciate your unintended accolades by applying the ideology of a respectful, factual, and issues-driven campaign to leftists and by default the gutter politics to rightists.
for all your hatred of obama that you and fellow righties paint him as marxist, socialist, radical leftist, radical environemmetalist, communist, muslim, whitey-hating half-breed you must be grasping at any other desperate tactic you can. and yet your war hero is still losing to him? figure that one out. the republican party is long past due for redefining itself starting with disowning half-baked wing-nutz like bush, limaugh, coulter, rove, o’reilly, dobson, and you. if only even mccain could bring himself to do that much, i would once again consider voting for a republican.

The Obamanites would do well to remember another great Chicago politician, Paddy Bauer who can be paraphrased as saying, “This country ain’t ready for reform.”

the mcnuggets would do well to pay attention to the polls that still to this day show republicans and mccain, the wannabe maverick, trailing.

However annoying you may find Michael Moore to be, he’s no nut, if for no other reason than he’s rich, are we?
But what he does is to pull out facts that conservatives have a hard time dealing with. Fair and balanced, no, but nutty, not that either. As to whether Obama denounces Moore, or doesn’t denounce Moore, or shares ten buckets of fried chicken with Moore, I couldn’t care less.

A republican who has the nerve to lecture Dems on fiscal prudence- and you call Michael Moore delusional?
The right wing nut cases support obvious crazies like Jerome Corsi, and you have the absolute effrontery to even bring up Moore? Words fail me.
You people are the definition of delusional.
