Still, it is similar to this story in that they are both just funny little stories that you can laugh about for a couple seconds before moving on. Both incidents are probably due to innocent mistakes and anyone who tries to make it more than that is just pushing their partisan agenda.

You miss my point. I agree that neither of these stories has any merit. The point is, Moore nitpicks with the best of them and those pointing to this as an outrageous and pointless attack on him would likely not have the same opinion if it were Moore doing the same thing. He plays off people's desire to see such inconsistencies and yet, when it's done to him, his fans decry it. He would never let an item like this pass without comment if it were his usual targets doing it so I see no reason to protect him from the same fate.
