Michael Moore is an idiot.
Michael Moore is an American success story. Sure he's a left-winger (so is Bill Gates and Steve Jobs and Warren Buffet)but that's only a crime in a right-wingers mind. I welcome any left or right winger who wants to make a movie about important life topics. Moore's 1989's "Roger & Me," about the struggle of Flint, Mich., to survive General Motors Corp.'s downsizing created a job for unemployed Moore and put FLINT MI a dead city on the map.
It's a big enough target.
ba dum bum.
"If there is a market for everything is there an Anti-Perry blog?"
Yes, Paul Krugman has it.
If you read the history of Flint, it was on the map long before Moore. Moore didn't put Flint on the map, the map left Flint.
There is a market for everything: Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade likely could us another very large balloon full of hot air.
" If there is a market for everything is there an Anti-Perry blog?"
Sure there is. Try Brad DeLong, Angry Bear, and Paul Krugman for openers.
Frankly, I find Megan, Boudeaux, and Perry and several others are grounded in the real world.
Brad DeLong!?!
Someone mentioned DeLong was coming out with a book: Dr. Strange Keynes Or How I Learned to Love Friedman.
I'm still waiting for Michael Moore to refund the $17 I spent to see his movie Capitalism. (The cost for my daughter and I). I planned to go to Flint with my own camera rolling to ask him for my money back. Then I realized it would be a total waste of good film. Michael, if you are reading this, just send me a money order.

Hmmm, suspending disbelief is one thing, buying into fraud is quite something else...
