Yes, Socialists generate hatred through propaganda, then use the hatred as an excuse to bully the US. It's like training attack dogs to hate the mailman uniform...
That notorious Socialist leader, Adolf Hitler, was a master of these hatred-generation techniques.

As much as I dislike Michael Moore, I really don't think one person can turn the whole world against anything. I don't think America is the most hated country in the world either. There are alot of people who would like you to think that for political purposes. After all, it is almost election time. But the truth is, America still has alot of friends.
Edit 1
Yeah Joe, I've heard of Hitler and I've read the book. The whole world didn't hate Hitler either. He is a despised person now, and rightfully so, but Germany had many allies during the war.
For some reason I thought you were asking a serious question. Sorry. My mistake.

So every one loved the USA before President Bush and now he made every one hate us. I've got news for you if you had spent any time in most of the other countries you would know that they have hated us for a long time. They hate us because they believe that all Americans are rich and by some of their standards we are, and yes some hate us because we live in a free country something they wish they had. They hate us because when we visit their countries we are arrogant and in some cases stupid and believe it or not they hate us because they have to take our foreign aid and all they see is the rich Americans giving them hand outs when what they really want is to find a way to pull them selves out of poverty and make their own way in the world.

Michael Moore is very good at what he does - unfortunately, making documentaries is NOT what he does.
He is a master of deception. He cherry picks facts and twists and squeezes and distorts them to fit his own agenda. He often uses out of context quotes (when he isn't making them up) and presents his ideas in such a way as to try and leave only one conclusion for the viewer. I can't for the life of me understand why normally intelligent people buy into his crap and swear it's 100% factual - most of the time, it's not even close.
In answer to your question, I would certainly hope that he doesn't have that much influence - but I'm sure he isn't helping matters any when his inflammatory rhetoric is presented to people in the guise of a "documentary."
Note: Moore has himself admitted that his films are "op-eds" and not true journalism. Still his followers think he's preaching the Gospel.

No. Michael Moore is seen as a hero to the rest of the world. The reason they hate us is because of Bush and his Administration's arrogance.

No....it really isn't....he is promoting universal health care...which many countries have and he promotes Bush hating and the world hates Bush. Why? Because he goes around invading countries and does not respect the ways of the world that's why...you can't just go into a country for one thing and then just change your mind and make up a completely unrealistic mission.

No, the guy's a douche bag to be sure, but it's mostly because of "blowback" from failed operations in several countries (Iraq, Iran, Vietnam, etc..) that started out with good intentions that ended up causing more problems than solving them. You give Moore too much importance and credit to blame him completely for all the hatred; he just profits off of it.

Nope...the increase of hatred towards the US has happened over the past 7 years. MM has been making movies a lot longer than that. I would try to find another person that has been making a big mess of the world over the past 7 years. Any ideas?

Only a Liberal like Michael Moore can make a movie about healthcare, all the while investing in pharmaceutical companies for profit. typical liberal hypocrisy.

Hated well??
Well when we were loved they ploted 9/11 against us.
So what is the reward for being loved?
Why did the French decide to elect a Pro-American president?
Moore is about making money for himself.
He rails again Haliburton and has stock in it.
Moore trys to claim he is about the truth but he just lies and hopes no one hold him accountable.
