Summary: Avoid buying this book
Review: This book is nothing more than the demented attempt to get attention from the American people, much like his Oscar speech was. This man should be termed a shock writer, saying whatever will upset people.This book should be entitled "Please don't elect Bush again", it is nothing more than a twisted view of his own political agenda that is not based in reality. I urge people not to buy this book. It was one of the worst reads I have ever had.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great book, too short.
Review: Michael Moore has a real tour-de-force here; he asks the questions that the mass media and the Democrats keep skirting around, and makes no bones about attacking the President directly. Even if you're as cynical as I am about Bush, the questions (and the evidence that Moore presents along with them) will shock you. I admit to being somewhat distrustful of Moore after the way he embellished events in his film _Bowling for Columbine_, but here he presents all of his sources so that you can affirm them for yourself.

I took away a star because I feel that this book is too expensive ($25 before discount) for its length (less than 300 pages). If you want to get this book in first print, or are in a hurry to wake people up to the shocking truth, get this book now. Otherwise, wait until the paperback edition.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Leftys are as bad as the conservtives
Review: Moore obviously learned nothing from the scores of radical Republicans who tried to overthrow Clinton for 8 years. Moore completely distorts truths to try to attack the president of the United States. He's nothing more than the Ken Starr of this decade.. I expected more from this guy but this book is a pack of lies.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Polemic Reviews for Polemic Books
Review: Responding to last last post, I seriously doubt that David Rhodes has read "Dude, Where's My Country". If one bothers to check his other reviews, he gives one star to Al Franken and "Stupid White Men", while giving 4 stars to Ann Coulter (now there is someone who is full of it!) and 5 stars to Laura Ingraham. Needless to say, I doubt that he ran out to buy this book, read it in one night, and then bash it without addressing a single issue that he disagrees with. Unlikely, at best.

That said, as usual, Michael Moore has written another polemic book with excellent facts, unlike the facts used by his opposing author, Ann Coulter (see Al Franken). While I agree with the facts, his presentation is sometimes overly dramatic and stretchs the truth to short of the breaking point, but I suppose that's what makes it funny. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interesting in the facts, as I also would like to know why the Bin Laden family was flown out of the US when no other planes were allowed to fly. Seems a little shady to me.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: How does he get away with it??
Review: Moore plays fast and loose with facts and then slams others for doing the same. This guy is amazing. And for all those who think "Bowling" is a documentary - use a dictionary. "Bowling" is a work of fiction made worse by the subject being a tragedy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: problems and solutions
Review: It's one thing to know the problems, it's another to know the solution? I also recommend 'Prayer for America' by Dennis Kucinich

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: A Question for Michael Moore
Review: Michael Moore has recently asked seven inane questions, addressed to President Bush, under the arrogant presumption that he is doing so "on behalf of" the victims of the World Trade Center attack. If he is even aware of what his words mean, this fat pig can only mean that he regards himself as the moral or political spokesman of the victims; a disgraceful and disrespectful act of corpse-robbing since none of those people gave him permission to speak for them.

Well Michael, I myself have a question for you, and I'll ask it with similar egomaniacal immodesty, on behalf of everyone who is not a complete bloody idiot.

Why have you refused to issue corrections for books like Stupid White Men that have been savaged in the press for the unusually high rate of errors and misrepresentations they contain?

You know the savaging I'm talking about. Liberals alone account for an astonishing number of the critical beatings you've received, as you can find on any number of liberal websites, including, SPINSANITY. And since they're your natural allies, that's not good.

Unfortunately, it's not just your books that appear to have been written in a haze of euphoria after doubling up on your meds. People keep finding numerous errors of fact in your documentaries and television programs too, some of which you've quietly corrected in re-issue without accepting responsibility for the original distortion. Yet a film, even moreso than a book, must be painstakingly edited and undergo review by many people over a lengthy post-production schedule. Only you could have had the veto power to keep a lie in. How is it that your falsehoods survived this vetting process?

Hey, maybe this is one of the reasons Mother Jones fired you for incompetence.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Fictitious Book from a Fictitious Man
Review: C-R-A-P! He films liberal propaganda and calls it a documentary. He writes another book full of lies and calls it the truth. Did anyone read the book description - I'd say Moore was comparing himself to Christ if he wasn't an anti-religion zealot. Moore is a shining example of the infectious, communist waste ruining this country and this book is his pamphlet for furthering the decline of humanity. Don't buy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Everyone should READ this book!!!
Review: First of all, if you're going to review a book, you should actually READ it -- I'm referring to Mr. Rhodes who reviewed this book and others. He obviously is part of the RIGHT WING camp and only reads their literature of which he gives 4-5 stars. It's so obvious that he didn't actually read any of Moore's or Franken's books. He just writes generalized hate comments about them. If he actually READ them, he could make a more informed review of the book and look into the FACTS that he claims are all lies. For those of who read it or interested in reading it, it's an absolutely truthful book by an author who is smart and courageous enough to write it. Hooray for Moore! Go check out his other stuff, i.e. Bowling for Columbine, etc....

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Face it, you'll never be rich
Review: Yes, that's an actual title of a chapter from the book. By reading this book and believing garbage that is contained within you will live up to the title of that chapter, you'll never be rich. That pretty much wraps up this book, it's a negative book that tells you everything you can't do and why you can't do it. It never offers any real solutions, just gloom and doom.

Basically this book will appeal to people who hate America. So if that sounds appealing to you, pick up the book because I'm sure you'll enjoy.

However if you have even the slightest amount of hope about your future - run away from this book, run far far away.
