Summary: This book has its flaws.
Review: To a large degree this is a very good book, I'm sure the other reviews cover everything that I could say, however a few chapters were slightly disappointing. (leading me to give the book 4 stars)In one chapter Moore pretends to be god, (but its obviously Moore, he uses the exact same language). In another he describes a dream, well a dialogue between him and his great granddaughter in the future. These chapters were painful to read, so I just skipped them. There are a few other times when the book goes a bit awry, however generally the book is a very good read.. This book is based on the premise that Bush needs to go. Indeed, Moore makes a very good case. The book concludes by urging the reader help dethrone Bush in 2004. A cause which few who read this book would call unworthy. Regardless of politics, I think that this book is a must read for all Americans. I highly recommend it to any Moore fan.

Summary: Where's my Country: Canada Michael - you come from Canada
Review: Predictible Michael Moore Diatribe. I can sum up the whole book: The Republicans are evil and the Democrats are good - and I don't have to prove it. There, now I've just saved you the $20.

Summary: facts matter
Review: If you're not familiar with it, Spinsanity is a website run by a trio of self-described liberals. They specialize in fact-checking, and they don't spare either side in politics. You can see this quickly, if you browse their menu of columns. The site is at http://www.spinsanity.org. Their critique of Michael Moore's work is at http://www.spinsanity.org/columns/20031016.html. The title is a fair summary: "Dude, Where's My Intellectual Honesty?" They also have a rigorous critique of Ann Coulter's _Slander_ available on the site. No disclaimer necessary in this review. Other than appreciating the quality of their work, I have no connection to the site. If it matters, I'm a university professor with a research interest in news media--and I'm firmly convinced that social critique is useless unless it's rooted in factual accuracy. In short, Moore's work is garbage--books and movies both.

Summary: 4 out of 5 aint bad
Review: One of the reviewers on this site noted that all of the reviews he saw either gave this book 5 stars or 1 star. Well, I'm breaking the mold and giving it 4. It is depressing to read this book, in the same way that it is depressing to read one of Noam Chomsky's political books. It just makes American government out to be so bad. I can't say it's not true. I can't say with any confidence that Moore's paranoia and negativism are unjustified. I'm a listener of listener-sponsored WBAI radio. It is the bastion of liberalism on radio. Moore has been on, and so has Kucinich and many other well known liberals/radicals. My only problem with the radio station, and with Chomsky and Moore, is that they parrot the official liberal position on Israel, the evil bully of the Middle East. I don't see it that way. I think it must be very difficult to be surrounded by countries that hate you and have tried several times to drive you into the sea, because they refuse to recognize your right to live. The Palestinian leaders have many times refused a separate state because they had to acknowledge the existence of Israel in order to be given their own state. That's apparently asking too much. The desert is apparently to valuable a piece of real estate to share with non-Muslims. Aside from that one issue, I really like Moore's new book.

Summary: Started reading
Review: I started reading this book, and i was horribly disappointed. I loved Downsize This, Stupid White Men, and Bowling for Columbine, but Michael Moore just seems to have become too laid back. He makes a lot of claims against conservatives and backs them up, then makes a statement that would make sense, if he had any evidence for it. He makes a lot of stereotypes, and plays off of the fact that most of the people that actually read his book dislike Bush.

Summary: Eyes and Ears Wide Open
Review: It is funny that the reviews for this book are either all stars or 1 star. I think it's even funnier when people who probably didn't even bother to read the synopsis of this book, let alone the entire book, criticize everything under the moon about Michael Moore but don't dispute his points. It is typical of a non-thinking person to be so ignorant of the facts and motivated by fear that instead of attacking the points they attack the person who made the points. When France doesn't want to back the aimless, warmongering U.S. in Iraq, what do we do, we start talking down about France, without questioning if they are correct in their opinion and/or if the U.S. is correct in its misguided actions. Well Michael Moore is one of the truly aware people, like myself and others who identified the points in the book as being irrefutable. Open your eyes right-wingers!! If it weren't for people writing books like this to make the rest of us aware of injustices we would be a huge ignorant, fear motivated cult. How can this country dictate who gets to possess nuclear weapons, when we ourselves have them? This book is correct on every point it brought up. It is all to apparent that the only group of people benefiting from W's administration is W and his administration. IT'S TIME TO WAKE UP! The conservatives are living in a Matrix. The non-conservatives are living in reality.

Summary: Michael Moore, professional whiner
Review: Unable to find purpose in his life, Michael Moore again decides to blame all social ills on the political right. And this time it is the rich against the rest of us. And once again it is
Moore's usual short-sighted nonsense. With Moore playing fast and loose with the facts (much like he did in his fictional documentary: 'Bowling for Columbine') in order to make his case. Since the man obviously has some intellect(when it's not clouded by his political views which he regards with religious-like fevor)I would like to see Moore tackle something of reasonable substance. Such as, convince the rest of us that 50 years of democratic control of congress and the programs of The Great Society were actually of a benefit to our country.
Moore tends to believe that socialism is the only way to save America, but fails to make any argument in support of this opinion.
Two and one-half stars for entertainment, zero for substance.

Summary: I would give it 0 stars if I could figure out how to
Review: Michael Moore should give prayerful thanks to his Creator that he was born in a blessed nation where he is allowed to say these things that I truly believe are dangerous and that he shouldn't be allowed to say about this nation into which he was born by the grace of the Almighty. Does he ever think about what things would be like if this nation weren't the way he complains it is? He would have to complain about a different nation, or about different things about this nation, or write a book praising bad things, like President Barbra Streisand, or an ultra-left-wing Fox News, or the Halliburton Fund to Save the Spotted Owl.

Summary: thank-you Michael, for Rachel
Review: This isn't so much a testimony to this book, as it is to it's author. I was quite moved to learn that Michael Moore dedicated this book to my friend Rachel, and others. His dedication should be enough to make one want to buy the book: for Rachel Corrie
will I ever have her courage
will I let her death be in vain for Ardeth Platte, Carol Gilbert
will I go sit in their cell
they would come sit in mine for Ann Sparanese
one simple act, a voice was saved
are there a million more of her
to save us all (Ann Sparanese is the librarian who emailed her librarian friends and saved his last book from being "pulped" by HarperCollins.)

Summary: The King has risen
Review: Moore is the king of the liberal idiots, Frankin being a close second. Any well read, intellegent individual could destroy any argument he tries to make. It's hard to decide who to feel more sorry for, the author or the people who actually buy this junk.
