(which we already know) its a common misconception that we get oil from the middle east, actually europe does, the us gets the majority of its oil from alaska and south america. the reason gas prices have risen in the us is because venezuela is in civil war right now, among other reasons of course.

majority of oil from alaska and south america? i hear that most of the US's oil is in texas....maybe alaska too, but definitely texas, and last i checked we, like most other countries, get the VAST MAJORITY of our oil from the middle east. They have more oil there than probably the rest of the world combined

How do you guys feel about the Paul M. Johnson Jr. situation? Do you think it's a wise decision to release a few al-Qaida prisioners to spare his life?

This might sound harsh but I think they shouldn't even bother negotiating with them. If they do release the prisoners they would just end up killing more people. Maybe eventually they'll stop taking hostages.

[chambers]

explain the situation please?

[Xollence]

Sorry, I thought everyone knew about this. It WAS pretty big news around here, but it's too late.

Michael Moore distorts information in all his documentaries.

That guy hates Bush so much what's the point in watching Fahrenheit 911? He'll put even more lies and bullshit into it just to get at the people he doesn't like.

[Nara Shikamaru VI]

[Himura_san]

Yes those jealous Aussies, they only wish they were us! Bahahaha!

[Stoopider]

I"m not American. But everybody is looking at you guys and want to know whats going on. Your the world's superpower, not that we are jealous or anything. But Every little bit that effects your economy effects ours. (Especially mine, we're pegged to the USD [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]).

Plus, you own more or less the whole media. They even show those 'vote for Bush' or Vote Kerry ad's here. Don't know why. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img] Nothing to do with us [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

I didn't read that as I think I've read it before along with a load of other internet stuff (EDIT - I checked the other forum I frequent and yes, I have read the stuff off that site before after someone posted a link to it on that forum), but heres Moore's response to internet rumours. http://www.michaelmoore.com/words/wackoattacko/

I like Michael Moore, I don't take his word as gospel or anything but I'm getting towards the end of Stupid White Men and its a pretty cool book, Bowling For Columbine is a good film as well so I'm gonna be looking forward to the new film. I agree that he makes films with an agenda so it doesn't qualify him as a journalist (people point this out a lot but it seems totally irrelevant to me), he makes them to drive his point/s across.

[Mut]

michael moore is an idiot. i just saw bowling for columbine and it was so stupid. the stupidest part was when they tried to pin the blame for the attack on columbine on k-mart for selling guns and ammos. it's the most retarded thing i've seen. such a cop out to put a blame of a tragedy on a big corporation so that it looks like the little people have been vicitimized. whatever, they needed a scapegoat for bad parenting and a result of screwed up kids (the shooters and the ones who bullied the shooters).

EDIT: SYS, you need to use html coding for you signature for it to work. <b>blah</b>

[Assertn]

micheal moore has some funny stuff.......i dont mind watching his shows.....although bowling for columbine doesnt really seem to follow any sort of linear plot and gets kinda boring at times........

i agree that blaming kmart was extremely dumb. I'm not really sure what point he was trying to prove, but kmart knew that mike was gonna be a bitch about it and get all in their face and make them look bad if they didnt break down to his demands. The idea's amusing.....and sometimes the big bad companies get what they deserve from his criticism, but sometimes it just seems like he's trying to find something funny to document.

Michael Moore tries too hard to uncover the "truth", he's a loser

[Swallow Your Soul]

I don't think he blamed KMart in the same way as those idiots blamed Marilyn Manson etc, he wasn't saying KMart was responsible for the killings, although maybe he was just pointing out how easy it is to get hold on ammunition by getting it from your local store, and two KIDS used the KMart bullets etc etc. I'm anti-gun etc anyway so the way I see it they did a good thing by getting KMart to make that agreement...

One of the coolest things in that film was of that comedian talking about bullet control, that guy was well funny...

Cheers Mut@t@, I tried in the past to do it with normal <> html things but some forums seem to insist on [] for some reason...

*goes to give it a try, while preparing to have to put my avatar up again once I've edited my profile* (dunno why that happens...)

Michael Moore tries too hard to uncover the "truth", he's a loser

I'm not convinced someone with strong opinions and wants to change things for what he thinks is for the better is a loser...if anything surely he's of more use to society (and much less of a waste of space) than some leech who's happy to do fuck all about fuck all, no? Besides, he makes a shitload of money out of it so it works out pretty cool for him [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img].
