Having seen this film I can say with honesty that this so called film reviewer has lost her faculties as a reviewer. We get it you got a thing against Moore. You left out all the info that even those of us who weren't in caves, that paid attention to what was going on, were shocked to see for the first time.
If this reviewer hates a film I know I will love it. Salon let her go and get yourself a reviewer who actually knows what a film is.
Happy that you are still around as vibrant, poetic and as gracious as always. Now get back to work.
Thanks Glenn for putting that into perspective. I thought I was starting to lose it with all the right wing madness.
Just goes to show that Bin laden knows Americans better than Americans.He knew our reaction would cause us to to spend enormous amounts of money, and have us chasing our tails for the rest of our lives. And we go along with this madness willingly.
Damn that was clear concise and just plain perfect explanation of what is going on as I see it too too. Bravo for reality based thinking.
Everyone do not miss had_enough's post
Have you read what Palin has said about thus country and Obama. Obviously ,to you, feminism trumps conspiracy theory lies that actually have done physical harm to real people. Keep defending the likes of the lunatic fringe. I say Letterman gets a big pass and I ignore your rants from now on.
Man yes billionaire should be mentioned because he ran on not being beholden to anyone because of his money. Yet the opposite has happened. He has enriched all his rich buddies. Mentioning he's a billionaire is perfectly justified . F**k Bloomberg the billionaire who buys his power to enrich his billionaire pals. F**k Bloomberg the billionaire who wants to change the term limit law because of his ego and because he has the money to carpet bomb the citizenry with tv commercials saying what a great mayor he's been.
Lets not forget that Dinkins also built the Arthur Ashe tennis stadium without using a penny of taxpayer money.
What are you dense. Those privileged few get full bank accounts and the taxpayer gets nothing after having paid for it all.
OH its about time someone somewhere took Bloomberg to task. He's trying to get a third term in NY. All New Yorkers should try and help stop that from happening. He's rigged the whole political system for his benefit. Do we really need another rich man buying power. beholden only to corporate interests deciding our fate. Fight this despicable oligarch.
Some posters here are mistaken.
Obama is NOT a liberal President. If anything he's middle to the right. Thats a fact. Just look at what he's been doing lately and then look at what he's done in his pre presidential days.
Obama is NOT doing what he said he would do and the wingnuts are sour graping. Beck and the others are fabricating scenarios out of thin air.
Beck is stirring the hornets nest because he wants someone to go off the charts and do something to prove he's been right all along.
Beck is harmful to only the 30 per-centers that watch him because as we've seen in the past these people are incapable of thinking for themselves.
Why aren't Americans boycotting Rupert Murdoch the sedition profiteer. Stop watching all Fox tv and movies, stop listening to his radio stations and stop buying his papers. Bring Murdoch who is not American to his knees financially and the loons will disappear. Murdoch can't survive with just the 30 per centers he needs more of the country to buy his crap. Send Murdoch back to Australia.
Old poor Richard you are an uniformed asshole. The EFCA does not prohibit the secret ballot. You are so weak assed pushing blatant lies. Your ideas are soon coming to an end.
Furtail that was on the money. Push people far enough and they will do whats necessary. Americans haven't been pushed far enough yet but the way things are going they will.
This reads like an attempt by AIG execs to save their bonus money and confirm their so called fear of losing their prized workers if the bonuses aren't paid. This is NYtimes and AIG manipulation for sure.
How many time does he mention that hes donating the money? Oh hes a good guy working for a firm that happened to be doing very bad things. He feels betrayed by his boss. Oh man I cry nothing for this guy.
I say go to hell. Auto workers bonus and payments get cut regularly from what they have been promised but they can't afford to resign.
This guy is one of the privileged class who can afford to resign, who can get his voice/agenda printed in a major newspaper. Who probably has a truckload of money saved. Hey if you did such a great job at your company how come its dead?
This piece made me feel empowered. Someone (Glenn) has the guts to peel back that ragged old curtain journalists have been hiding behind. A crash course in the necessity of reading and researching between the lines.
Glenn you are a treasure.Thankyou.
