Michael Moore's "Capitalism"

[Kirkland Laing]

I'm not watching videos, you need to explain a specific instance of him being hypocritical. That's where your actions contradict your words. Here's an example of somebody being a hypocrite :

The right-wing American commentator Rush Limbaugh has blamed the National Football League Players Association, the media and "race hustlers", such as Al Sharpton, for his being ousted from a bid to purchase the St Louis Rams.
Limbaugh was quoted on Bloomberg.com as having said on his talk radio show that unfair media coverage and pressure from Sharpton and Jesse Jackson, two black clergyman and civil-rights leaders whom he called "race hustlers", had contributed to the failure of his interest in the Rams.

"So Much for the Post-Racial America. That's how Rush treats people — in the Martin Luther King aspiration that the content of one's character is what matters, not the color of one's skin. Yet, in the media narrative, he's somehow the one who's got a race issue — and the guys who trade on race, live and breathe it 24/7, are held up as our public conscience."

As I explained on my radio show, this spectacle is bigger than I am on several levels. There is a contempt in the news business, including the sportswriter community, for conservatives that reflects the blind hatred espoused by Messrs. Sharpton and Jackson. "Racism" is too often their sledgehammer. And it is being used to try to keep citizens who don't share the left's agenda from participating in the full array of opportunities this nation otherwise affords each of us. It was on display many years ago in an effort to smear Clarence Thomas with racist stereotypes and keep him off the Supreme Court. More recently, it was employed against patriotic citizens who attended town-hall meetings and tea-party protests.

These intimidation tactics are working and spreading, and they are a blight on our society.

"We're witnessing racism all this week that led up to the inauguration. We're being told that we have to hope he succeeds. That we have to bend over, grab the ankles, bend over forward, backward, whichever, because his father's black, because this is the first black president."

Rush Limbaugh

"The days of them not having any power are over, and they are angry. And they want to use their power as a means of retribution. That's what Obama's about, gang. He's angry, he's gonna cut this country down to size, he's gonna make it pay for all the multicultural mistakes that it has made, its mistreatment of minorities. I know exactly what's going on."

"They're moving to the back of the bus. They're saying, 'I can't use that drinking fountain? Okay. I can't use that restroom? Okay.' That's the modern day Republican Party. The equivalent of the Old South. The new oppressed minority."

Rush Limbaugh
2009







"Obama’s America, white kids getting beat up on school buses now. You put your kids on a school bus, you expect safety but in Obama’s America the white kids now get beat up with the black kids cheering, 'Yay, right on, right on, right on, right on,' and, of course, everybody says the white kid deserved it, he was born a racist, he’s white."

"You let George Bush's Navy gun down three black teenagers out there on the open sea and I guarantee there would be hell to pay.... If only President Obama had known that the three Somali community organizers were actually young black Muslim teenagers I'm sure he wouldn't have given the order to shoot."

You bring up two other very big hypocrits Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. They have outrage at WHITE PEOPLE for using racist terms when they themselves have used and continue to use horrible racist terms including the word nigger but I guess that's ok for them to use as they are black but that is the dumbest fucking idea ever "You can't use that word only WE can use that word".....bullshit.

Kirkland you obviously hold yourself and your views in very high regard, but Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are racists, not in my opinion but judging them by their own standards and that makes them hypocrits and yes Rush Limbaugh has every right to be angry at them for ending his run at being in a group to buy the St. Louis Rams because they used a quote that was unconfirmed. Your quotes prove nothing...at least to me, I've heard those quotes in context and I see nothing to prove you correct.

Do you think Henry Louis Gates was in the right when he accused that police Officer of racism? After hearing the details of what happened the majority of people in America would be more on Rush's side than yours.

Sonya Sotomayor did say some very strange things regarding race. It seemed as if she couldn't say something positive about her being hispanic without first bashing white people and their "life experiences".

I'm not watching videos, unles you can come up with a coherent thought in your own words forget it. In your own time with the Bill Maher thing.

[El Kabong]

...then I won't waste my time arguing with you. If you don't want to watch the videos that prove my points without me even having to say anything about them then fine. Meanwhile you can take quotes out of context and twist them around into whatever you want to make them.....no wonder you love Michael Moore

Kinda lame Kirk. I didn't watch any of the videos but don't ask him to show you how maher is a hypocrite and then dismiss them. Your M.O. is all about demanding people to back up their statements. Lyle provided a video. I dont' know whether it actually backs up his statement or not but its kind of "hypocritical" to simply dismiss them. I also don't see how saying what Rush is or isn't as being relevant to what Maher is or isn't. Seems more like a distraction or deflection of the actual question.
