No serious person claims that there is no looming terror threat...aside from conservatives like yourself claiming that that's what their opponents believe.

I think you're confused about which story I was referring to. I wasn't referring to the atrocity committed by Saddam's regime. I was referring to the bad news currently coming out of Iraq.

"There is no terrorist threat."-Michael Moore


He is one of many, many liberals I know for a fact try to convince people all the time that there is no threat (I have him on tape saying that), and that this is all about Bush scaring people.

Christ, it is the number one thing pundits like Hannity and Limbaugh mock the left for doing.

Hurl your little oblivious insults all you want. I watch them on live TV saying these things on a nightly basis.

Since you have it taped, why not post the whole quote in context? Honestly, what are you doing, following Michael Moore around to book signing events with a tape recorder hoping that he will say something that makes liberals look bad?

First off, let me let you in on something here. Half this country is to one degree or another liberal, half this country is to one degree or another conservative. Now why is it that conservative talk radio sells very well, and liberal talk radio does not usually sell well? It is because liberals views are all over the map, and they resent being told what they should believe. Conservatives on the otherhand who like talk radio tune into it to confirm what they already believed. Therefore, Micheal Moore is not nearly the spokesman for the left as someone like Hannity or Limbaugh is for the right. So who gives a rats *** what Michael Moore believes on any subject.

Secondly, news organizations are out to make money. They have to be profitable. There is no conspiracy out there. They report what they believe will draw the most viewers, listeners, or readers. If they did not, they would not be in business. For example, due to the internet, newspaper circulation has been in a steady decline for years now. If a newspaper is having to fight like never before for every cent it makes, then why on earth would they purposesly ignore stories simply to advance a political view? If the Washington Post puts one story of the Front Page, and another in the back of the paper, its not because they have some agenda, its because they think the story that they put on the front page will intice more people to purchase their paper that day. If MSNBC gives a great deal of coverage to some topic, its because they think that will draw the most viewers. I mean honestly, do you think 24/7 coverage of rich white girls gone missing in the Caribean is to the benefit of Democrats?

Christ bro, instead of spending all your time documenting perceived example of liberal bias, take up a hobby. Democrats are not evil, and neither are Republicans. They just have different ideas on what they think is best for the country. Life is too short to be so obsessed over news coverage. Pick up a fishing rod or something.

Please reread my original post:

If you're going to use Michael Moore to characterize the left, can I use Pat Robertson to characterize the right? You crazy conservatives, all believing that gay people caused 9/11.

Oh, well if Rush said it then it MUST be true.

Please give me the name of any prominent liberal who claims there is no terror threat. Someone who (unlike Michael Moore) isn't in business to say the most obnoxious things possible, please.

aquapub

Please, nobody's saying that. 9 times out of 10, they play the actual soundbyte or show the footage of liberals saying these things. There is NO NEED to take their word for any of it.

aquapub

Oh, come on. It is in the opening segment of "Farenhype 9/11." I'm not following people around to demonize the Left just because I have a quote that proves a point you don't like.

Kandahar

OK, well if you've heard actual clips of serious, prominent liberals saying that there is no terror threat, surely you can provide me with their names and perhaps the quote.

If Michael Moore is the best example you can come up with, I see your bet and raise you a Pat Robertson.

Conservative books beat the crap out of liberal ones because conservatives read and liberals are generally brainwashed, uneducated hysterics. And conservative sentiment in general sells so much better than liberal sentiment because Middle America is conservative. Only the fringes are liberal.
