    I don’t understand your hate. You hate him because his message has been consistent for 25 years?

    Edit: full disclosure. I met Mr. Moore in 1998. He generously gave his time to speak to everyone that wanted to speak with him. He gave out personal contact information to some community organizers, and really seemed interested in helping a bunch of us kids who were trying to change the world. I really respect him a lot.

      No. I hate him because suddenly all the things he’d been rallying against during the Bush years weren’t problems anymore when Obama was doing it. It was never about the crimes against humanity, it was about who was committing them. That’s not ideological consistency, it’s quite the opposite.

          He didn’t have to start them, they were already ongoing. He continued them, escalated them, expanded them into Syria, renewed the patriot act, didn’t shut down gitmo, didn’t ban torture, didn’t do any of the things he implied he’d do with his “hope and change” slogan. Obama didn’t change shit. We might as well have had 2 more terms of Bush. But, strangely, Michael Moore had nothing to say about that.
