From Michael Moore's website: Drudge Blows It...
No pun intended, right Mike?

Poor Matt Drudge has been taken for a ride.

Attempting to downplay George W. Bush's illegal activities, Matt D. charges that Presidents Clinton and Carter spied on Americans without a court order, too.

Unfortunately, Drudge is wrong.

2. I don't hate America
I don't hate George Bush.

But I feel a whole lot better when he's not around.

(Charles Bukowski apparently said something to that effect;
I'm relying on memory of the movie 'Barflies')

3. I wish most Dems hadn't tossed Moore aside after the election.
He is STILL one of the most forceful, powerful progressive voices in this country.

4. Can't believe it, but Andrea Mitchell making these points on "Hardball"
She shot Georgie Allen down in flames when he said that Clinton and Carter OK'd warrantless searches ... He didn't know how to respond. LOVING IT!

5. Drudge has about the same accuracy rate as Newsmax.
Which, for all that don't know, is fucking horrible.

15. Hey, that's not fair!
Newsmax is at least right occasionally. By accident.

10. When Do They Accept Responsibility????


The PUGS justification for * to do illegal wiretaps is because they can prove that Clinton did the same????

My reply....If Clinton did the same then lets go after him but that still is not justification or does not legitimize * activity....

11. Matt Drudge lies?
Surprised that Bush hasn't nominated him for a cabinet position.

"It took several executive orders to develop both the intelligence gathering "toolbox" of the President while also keeping a firm check on Presidential powers. But the decades of bipartisan effort simply unraveled with the election of George W. Bush."

12. Thank You Michael - And Please Do A Sequal To F911....
Edited on Wed Dec-21-05 05:49 PM by global1
you certainly have enough new material. Perhaps this time even those who voted for * will watch it and not listen to the likes of Rush, Hannity, Drudge, Rove and all the * apologists.

On edit - I forgot to say the following: Somebody has to chronicle what this despicable and reprehensible administration has done to this country. You did such a good job with F911 please do a follow-up.
