I though he fared pretty well. Not raving mad, but certainly passionate about the issue. He maintained a sense of humor and made very pointed statements. Glad he had a chance to say what he did. |
Exactly, he was very quick to come up with some facts to argue against the supposed inaccuracies in his film as alleged by CNN.
It's impressive to me that he was able to get air time on CNN and basically call them liars on their own network.
CNN are a bunch of sell-outs anyway. They put him on because they know lots of people will tune into their station and that's what they want. The same reason why they put Paris Hilton  on Larry King. |

Maybe his next project should be an expose of Paris Hilton's health care system...  |

Mike should make his next film about teaching English in Korean hagwons "Hey! Mr. Kim, I just want what was promised to me in your ad!"  |

| Mikey Moore is fat, ugly and his mommy dresses him funny. Basically just another oportunist like Al Gore. |

I love watching people pick on Moore for being overweight. These people resort to this because they can't argue against his films and books. So, let's go after him because he's fat.
Actually, I'd love to see a TV interview where Moore squares off against GW Bush. |

In an intellectual debate "W" would outshine Moore everytime but, a beans and dog eating competition...well, I perceive we all know what the outcome of that would be... |

It's fine of you don't like Moore, but W winning an intellectual battle with a human?! That's just nutty. |

I am fat ugly and I dress myself funny. If you Mikey Moore fans like Fahrenheit 411 your might like the sequal Fahrenhipe 411.
I am also a enough of a Jew to tell Jewish jokes. |

Bush? An intellectual debate? Are we talking about the same person?  |

| Neither Michael Moore nor GW Bush is good at debate. When I've seen either of them try to do so, it's been cringe-inducing. W might win because he has a fast wit and can make fun of people on the fly, which would leave MM stuttering. If it were a written debate, wherein insults and one-liners don't compare to factual data, though, MM would easily rout W. |

| Thought it was a good idea he only does live interviews. Stops them editing around the interview and taking things out of context. |

| He was interrupted once by the doctor and was all "Geez... ya know... I was trying to say something..." spending too much time looking exasperated and offended [King "Go!" ]. Meanwhile, he's the one who can't wait til the other has finished speaking before addressing their points to further the debate. He'd rather go waffling on about the war or getting an apology... |
