I wouldn't call Moore a hypocrite

No. Nothing hypocritical at all about making millions bad mouthing capitalism.

Ok....please show me one instance of Moore bad-mouthing capitalism, just one example!. I'm asking for an actual example, not some argument about how he did a film on some company where he had some issue (like polluting, corporate fraud, etc.).

Just one simple example where Moore is badmouthing capitalism, that is all I ask.

The above link is to a story where Moore states he has no respect for intellectual property (Copyrights).

Here are some quotes attributed to Moore. #4 is the evidence, the others are just for fun (Originally posted in the NY Times)...

1) Americans are the stupidest people in the world.--Michael said this while visiting England.
2) America is to blame for 9/11 and got what it deserved.--said the day after 9/11.
3) The people rebelling in Iraq (the ones taking civilians and military hostage and cutting off their heads) are not insurrectionists. They are the minutemen of Iraq. They are the revolutionists.--said recently when asked about the beheading of one of the civilian hostages.
4) I don't own any stocks because the stock market is corrupt, wrong, and should be done away with.--said in a recent interview

I have also personally watched a MM interview w/ Bill O'Reilly where he stated tax rates for high wage earners should be 70% or more.

Does he need to actually say "I hate Capitalism" in order for you to be satisfied? If it walks like a duck, quacks like a...

I'm not saying that Moore doesn't say some really stupid things. My point here involves the anti-capitalist accusations made here in this thread.

So what you are saying is that anyone who thinks that the stock market is "corrupt" or "wrong" is anti-capitalist?

I know alot of people who have been successful in small business and have profited tremendously from the capitalist system. The majority of these people DON'T invest in the stock market for various reasons. Some would even say that it is corrupt.

Take a deep breath...relax...okay. Someone asked to name "just one" lie that Limbaugh has said. The first one that came to my mind was that Al Gore claimed he invented the internet. Al Gore never said that. That's what my statement has to do with Rush Limbaugh. It was something that Rush repeated almost daily for at least 6 months and it was a lie. I bet if you asked Joe Rush listener if Al Gore claimed to have invented the internet, he would absolutely agree that he said that. (exhale)

Oh, sorry about that. I actually thought that Gore said that, but I've never researched it. I figured that Limbaugh took it out of context and distorted it like he does so many things.
