Why does Michael Moore get a national media platform to rant his sophmoric Marxist drivel?

He fits the CNN profile as the perfect Hollywood liberal

Given that anyone can get up an make a speech this contributor's objection to Mike Moore borders on a rant....but let's overlook that. Marxist? Marxism has to do with the state ownership of the means of production and distribution.....nothing else! Mike has never said that the 'government' should own anything, only that the institutions, such as the handful of trans national corporations who actually do own the means of production and distribution adhere to their charters that direct them by LAW to do business in the public interest in return for the limited liability that those charters grant. He has insisted that certain regulations be adhered to by these massive entities...just the same as certain traffic laws must be adhered to by drivers holding licenses to use the public roads. The fact that he's 'rich' is both a ad hominum and a red herring argument so we can, as with the overall rant discount that objection.. Mike has stood up for unions...legally instituted entities that also have charters that grant them certain privileges and rights...rights that evidently 'republican governments' can ignore in their zeal to pimp for their GOP/Teabag/Fox 'News' masters. The entire point of the current GOP/Teabag/Fox 'News' Axis is to 'privatize' everything that can be privatized in such a way that there's no benefit to or for the 95% of Americans who work for wages. The 5% who own 95% of everything worth owning will, should their plan pan out then BE the government....a fascisti association of corporations, the police power of government and on social issues the unwarranted influence of the Jesus freaks of America. Union busting is just one facet of this coup 'd eta....the selling off of America's lands, air, water, mineral wealth and public arenas to private interests is the goal. Unless the person who posted this 'question' is an operative for a corporation or some lobbying group for a corporation he's going to be robbed, raped, screwed and as much $%^&ed over as anyone else should these reactionary weasels 'win'. On the plus side, this latest round of union busting may just be that 'bridge too far' for these characters. Remember....you pretend to pay us, we'll pretend to work, and, when a critical mass of citizens understand that they're being denied what is rightfully theirs you'll see them in the streets, not the courts...then look out!

Because he points out the truth behind the evil nature of the greedy Republicans and the Richpublican party, and how they've scammed this nation, and took us for everything. But ignorant, small-minded people would rather blame Obama, because it's easier than dealing with the embarrassment of admitting to themselves that they've been taken so badly, I mean for us to admit that we have let a small group of men abscond with and hoard the bulk of the wealth that runs our economy, would mean that we'd have to accept the humiliating acknowledgment that we have indeed surrendered our precious Democracy to the moneyed elite. Wall Street, the banks and the Fortune 500 now run this Republic

1. Moore is about as Marxist as Sarah Palin is.

2. Because people are stupid and are willing to listen to his bullshit lies.

Because it is a left leaning media.....why do you think they are making a movie about Sarah Palin but do you see anything about Elizabeth Edwards or Bill Clinton. God knows there is enough skeletons in those closets for a lifetime movie.

Without the right I'd rarely hear anything he has to say.

He is a prominent liberal Democrat with lots of money.

You mean like Beck? Or limbaugh?

Keep on trolling. I bet you have no idea what marxism even means...
