Moore's mouth says one thing and his actions show where his beliefs really lie. He stands to make millions doing what would be impossible in most of the countries he thinks outshine America. Such as as Cuba and Venezuela. I don't begrudge him the cash but I question his principles. They are so warped he probably doesn't even see the contradiction.
I've heard interesting things about the movie. He goes to Wall Street and attempts citizen's arrests on bankers. All caught on film. Sounds like a hoot and a holler. dj On Sun, Oct 4, 2009 at 1:35 PM, iam deheretic <[email protected]> wrote: > I received an email from Michel Moore over his move Capitalism..
