If not...WHY?!?!

I have seen the movie. I'm capable of critical thinking so I can watch the movie and be informed, unlike the folks who bad mouth a film without ever having seen it. I thought it was informative and since I'm capable of searching the web and reading a paper, I can easily discern fact from fiction. I've already known many of the things he talked about in the film, so it just buttressed my knowledge on the subject. The "for profit" healthcare industry is great for stockholders but not so great for sick/dying people. Anyone with a brain can understand how maximizing profits by denying claims and useful or necessary procedures, is bad for America and Americans.
I'm tired of all the intellectually retarded folks saying horrible things about a film they've never even seen. Nothing screams stupid like talking out of your rear.

Oh DJS
I wasn't "acting" intellegent to bad mouth others. I AM intelligent and I'm simply stating the truth. Intellectually speaking, there is nothing worse than taking what others say at face value without investigating for yourself. That is the cardinal sin of knowledge and reason. It is also the kind of thing that leads to indoctrination and ignorance. Humans have the ability to reason and think critically. We should use it instead of relying on other people to tell us what to think.
As for the lying comment you've obviously never read any of his books. There's a nice thick section in the back for sources. The wonderful thing about Moore, is you don't have to be a rocket scientist to see where he gets his information and see what if anything he's tweaked a little to serve his purposes. All you have to do is look at his sources and do your own investigating.
**edit**
DJS I also find it intesting how my little newly developed non-fan club (SR1954NX and m2105us) have answered only the same exact questions you have. Perhaps I should have addressed this to Sara, who is the one person DJS, SR1954NX and m2105us have in common. You all answer the same questions and you all answer them the same way. Interesting. It's also interesting that all your best answers have exactly 8 votes. You know point gaming is not allowed on Yahoo. Tsk-tsk.
***edit***
Yeah, I'm sure the newbies who have only answered 4 questions (and for whatever reason have an axe to grind with me) just miraculously happened to stumble upon this question. Using my deductive reasoning I realize the probability of that happening is beyond miniscule. I'm sure you're just one of the 8 personalities. And as for my own answers you can see that most of my Best Answers were given to me by the questioners themselves. I don't need multiple accounts, because my answers are accurate and thorough.

Oh Jenny B....
There is nothing worse than someone who acts intelligent just to badmouth others. How can you even attempt to watch a movie which is made by a known liar?
***Edit:***
There is no conspiracy here. The only conspiracy theory lies within his "sources." The man spliced tapes from NRA meetings in Bowling for Columbine to create his opinion. Anyone can source documents (just look at half of the 'sourced' answers on Yahoo answers), and he's been torn apart by many commentators who look into his "sources."
It is rather odd that after you edited your comment, my friends (we are not all the same person) got multiple thumbs down at the same time. If anything, I am starting to believe that you are the point monger.

Hey there, Jenny B. I think he's a loser as well, and I'm not a part of any anti fan club. Perhaps you are creating conspiracy theories to hide your own "top contributer" status. Tsk tsk...

I want to see it, have not seen it yet. It is only playing at limited theaters, I choose to see Transformers and Die Hard 4 movies, first.

Wow, I sense a lot of hostility here. Oh well....Michael Moore sucks anyways.

Nah, I'm SICK of fictional movies that pass themselves off as documentaries. Bore, I mean Moore, must've been a fan of The Blair Witch Project.

Why would anyone want to see a movie made by a guy who uses propaganda tactics to the likes of Goebbels? The man cut and pasted in Bowling for Columbine, and he uses half truths to tell his lies. The man is a con artist.

Horray for Jenny B! A closet Moore fan who acts intelligent to bash others.
That movie is going to lie to you like the rest of his movies. Why would ANYONE want to see lies? Wait...you probably enjoyed Clinton's book, "My Lies."

Not yet. I am afraid it will probably just piss me off and make me angry at healthcare. So, yeah, that is the one reason. I should see it because I am one of those unpatriotic liberals whose ideals are way too crazy!
Although, Moore sometimes does get a little nutty.
Edit:
I was being sarcastic. I am a left-wing liberal. I don't think of myself as crazy.
