Great article from Christopher Hitchens (yes, a liberal from Vanity Fair, no this is not my roundabout way to get invited to the tawdry parties...)
This should silence the Moore supporters
Hitchens Michael Moore Article
This kind of liberal I can appreciate because he recognizes that freedom is superior compared to tyranny. Even if the freedom is from a conservative, it beats totalitarian states. Why other liberals are more worried about defeating Bush rather than defeating evil shows their true lack of conviction for their supposed causes.
Silly rabbit. This will not silence "liberals." I don't like to use that term to describe these people. Chrisopher Hitchens is not a liberal, he is a Man of the Left and a Heterodox. I do not think he would disagree with me. He has written nastily about Kissinger and Mother Teresa (admittedly two very morally different people) and was known to be a supporter of the Soviet regime in his day. His anger towards the establishment Left stems from his belief that it has strayed from their core values. Much of his current hawkishness is due to his Trotskyism.
Michael Moore is not a liberal, he is a fraud. Those fawning over his "films" are not liberals, they are lemmings and lunatics.
