The USA didn't do shoddy research. They've relied on intel from every single major country (yes, France and Germany included) that said Iraq had WMD's and likely had not destroyed them. They also relied on the British intelligence that the British still say is true. There has been no evidence of WMD's yet, but many UN weapon inspectors have said many times how easy they are to hide. Even though, if no WMD's are found, the Coalition acted on intel acknowledged by all of the major world powers.
Moore fabricates speeches, putting sentences from many different speeches together to assemble a false message. Moore didn't make slight errors, or stretch the truth a little bit, he ripped truth out of the "documentary".

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
