Iraq Vet Sues Michael Moore for Misleading Interview in his debunked movie.

Quote from ZZZzzzzzzz:

Is this amnesia on the right?

Cleland was stumping for Kerry in the 2004 election, and was routinely "slime boated" by Coulter, Hannity, Limbaugh, et al....


Limbaugh claimed Republicans didn't challenge Cleland's patriotism in 2002

Radio host Rush Limbaugh attempted to undermine Teresa Heinz Kerry's explanation that she left the Republican Party in 2002 out of anger over attacks by the Senate campaign of Republican Saxby Chambliss (R-GA) on the patriotism of the then-incumbent senator, Max Cleland (D-GA), a Vietnam veteran who lost three limbs during that war. On the June 15 Rush Limbaugh Show, Limbaugh asserted, "[T]hat's not what the Republicans did, but the Democrats portrayed it that way":

LIMBAUGH: he [Teresa Heinz Kerry] claims they -- they -- Republican Saxby Chambliss tarnished and challenged, Cleland's patriotism. He's a -- he's a multiple amputee from the Vietnam war, and -- and -- and that's not what the Republicans did, but the Democrats portrayed it that way...

Heinz Kerry's comments were reported by the Associated Press on June 14. As the article indicated, "The GOP had raised questions about Cleland's patriotism because of his position on legislation to create the Department of Homeland Security." Chambliss aired advertisements against Cleland that featured footage of Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden. As the Orlando Sentinel reported on June 13 and as Media Matters for America noted, "Republican Sens. Chuck Hagel of Nebraska and John McCain of Arizona -- both Vietnam veterans -- were so irate that they complained to their party about the ads until the Saddam and bin Laden photos were removed."

Z, both sides are wrong here. Just admit it and go on. Michael Moore is wrong to do what he did, and it was wrong for the right to slander Cleland and Kerry for that matter. Two wrongs don't make a right. Stop defending Moore and just admit he is a fat sloth of a man without a conscience.
 
Is he as much of a fat sloth of a man without a consience as Fat Limbaugh?

Sure. Why not? They are both cut from the same cloth. Even George Clooney thinks Moore is a big fat joke. Just be honest and move on.
 
Who is being dishonest, Mav The Objective?

Why you are defending what Moore did here is beyond me? Just admit it, it was tasteless. Using a wounded war vet for for your own monetary and political gain. Just admit it man and move on. There should be bi-partisan agreement here. I mean shit, if we can't agree on using and abusing wounded war vets, this board is hopeless.

So Moore is tasteless.

Is this some new revelation?

I am not defending Moore, his attorneys have that job.

Just admit it was tasteless. Instead of trying to tear other's arguments apart.
