One would hope with this in mind, we could begin to guage the degree with which these lies effect the country we all profess to love.
One man lies and makes some money, pisses a bunch of people off, makes a fool of himself, and makes an administration look bad. But gives me a good chuckle.
Another Lies and people DIE.
He lies and diminishes the respect of our Nation in the eyes of the world (which does matter believe it or not). He lies and generates fear in my mind.

I cannot, for the life of me........fathom a mindset that gets one so "charged up" about the actions and motives of someone who writes, produces, and directs documentary (or films billed as documentaries) films that convey a
theme or message one disagrees with, yet not only can give a "pass" to a
national leader and his administration that is caught lying to facilitate a war
of aggression, but also vigoroualy defends the war criminals.
With the, "well Clinton was the one who.....blah blah blah" all used up as response for any and all criticism of the current administration, Moore has become the Clinton surrogate for those who still cling to the dream that first Reagan, and now Bush, are somehow more than the mediocre sum of their
woefully inadequate (and greatly injurious to the country), heavily manipulated, parts.
Karl Rove and Michael Moore are both artists.......Moore uses film as his canvas, Rove uses an unlikely and unconventional medium; a remarkably under qualified, and unpredictable little man, who he does not even have to
wring a passable performance out of (ala last fall's presidential "debates") to
achieve the desired effect.
Look how red in the face you get, over Moore successfully presenting his message with an inconsequential outcome, compared to artist Rove's result that results in unsettling the world and in killing, injuring, and beggaring so many of the people in it.
