Conservative Cronies Hate Moore June 13, 2002 John (Sacramento - Home of the KINGS!) 84 out of 94 found this review helpful
This was a funny and informative series. The reviewers who gave it a negative are nothing less than Right Wing Seperatists who shout "Red Commie!" everytime corporate greed and the conservative right is exposed for what they truly are: Anti-American.
Victimological Claptrap March 11, 2002 DrZin (Aichi, Japan) 10 out of 299 found this review helpful
Apparently it's not easy to fill a weekly hour of television with egregious examples of American capitalistic greed. Moore goes way beyond the bounds of disingenuousness with this stale, agenda-driven, faux-lighthearted documenteering. He actually is forced to engineer his own ridiculous examples of oppression to justify his silly Marxist egalitarian theses. For example, why, do you think, that women have to wait in longer lines at public restrooms? Is it because of natural anatomical constraints which dictate almost complete removal of undergarments thereby eliminating the efficacy of urinals and thus increasing the duration of the urinary act? No. Why then? You guessed it: SEXISM!! White Anglo-Saxon SEXISM!! This is reminiscent of the school of feminism which teaches that the reason that women are the ones to gestate and give birth has nothing to do with biology, but is simply another matter of male oppression. If all of the 900 pound gorillas ignored by the left were actualized, we'd be kissing the Statue of Liberty goodbye. Michael Moore IS a funny man and it's a shame that he doesn't stick to humor and concentrate on less overtly leftist material, like most other comedians. Not coincidentally, the funniest and most enjoyable segments of the show were the ones which were ideologically neutral. Politically, however, Moore... and those ensnared by his claptrap are simpletons or spiteful wealth-coveteers. Catch this show in syndication or give it a miss.
TV At Its Finest March 30, 2001 Clarence of Melvin (Austin, Texas) 153 out of 161 found this review helpful
Michael Moore has the social genius of a modern day Mark Twain, and the courage of a lion. Had he been living in Nazi Germany in the 1930's, he would have been right there leading protest movements just under Hitler's nose, knowing full well the consequences. One can only admire his eagerness to take on the corrupt powers that be, using a lawyer stuffed into a big chicken suit (Crackers, the corporate crime fighting chicken featured in TV Nation). His attempt to get close to power by hugging all 50 state governors at an annual conference was as hilarious as his face to face challenge to Newt Gingrich to "get government off the backs of the American people" by having Cobb County, Ga. (Newt's home district) give back all of its massive federal government funding (Newt, of course, refused). TV Nation is a must see for anyone who thinks, and has any modest level of social consciousness.

Mr Moore. yes he is controversial, yes he is ground breaking, and yes he is a communist. Unlike other partisan Democrats who aren't afraid to admit their party lines, he is too whimp to admit that he is actually a bleeding heart liberal. He calls himself a Green Party member while does a fine job of advancing Liberal Party. These Clinton supporters will go to any length to support their corrupt priesident to any length. Just goes to show you how decent and moral Democrats have become. Mr moore, just come out of that dark Red closet out of yours and say what you really are -- a Red Commie.
