You all need to remember Moore is not a democrat nor a republican since its making it sound like he is

Actually he is a registered Democrat in New York and is actually registered to vote in 2 states.



Gee, did Michael Moore lie again? Go figure.

Now that is absolutely ridiculous.

Do you have any idea how many people are registered as either democrats or republicans but vote for neither?

My dad will punch republican for every election from now till the end of time but he's still a registered democrat because he believes that by voting democratic during the primaries (which is really the only place were registration matters) he can help nominate what he feels to be a "lesser" candidate.

Its not rediculous at all. You and he claimed that was independent. He is not. He is a registered and ACTIVE Democrat according to the state of New York. He has never resigned from the party, which is very easy to do. In fact, its so easy I DID IT. Up until the year 2000 I was a registered Libertarian. In 2000, I switched to independent.

In conclusion. Moore said he was independent when he is an active member of the Democratic party as of his last voting in 2001, as is shown on his registration card. So he lied, and you believed him, and when it was exposed that he lied you quickly excused it because Michael Moore can do no wrong. See how that works?

BTW, anyone else think its sad that such a active political icon hasn't voted in THREE YEARS? I sure do.

I dont.

What if ( hypothetical) he voted for Bush, then he couldnt get mad at him, because he helped put him in office.

Which arises a question, if you vote for Bush, then don't like what hes doing, do you have the right to get mad at him? You helped him.

I think since he didnt vote, technically, he can get mad at whatever president he wants with no fault of "Helping them" get there.

That may be the weakest, most son-sensical reason for not voting I've ever heard. So he doesn't vote, because it would hinder his ability to criticize people in power? The same guy who said he wanted to "see change in his lifetime" refuses to vote, which directly helps to make change, so that he can continue to feel free to criticize and make movies that make him even richer????

Oh wait, that actually sounds a whole lot like Michael Moore. Never mind, you were dead on.

Um, no.

First, what I said.

Secondly, in Illinois, (this may not be the case in New York.) in order to vote in the primaries, you have to register as a member of one party. If Moore wants to have a say as to which democrats are nominated, he has to be a member of the democratic party. Does this make him a de jure member of the democratic party? Yes, but de facto he's not a democrat by his word alone and, thus, it's not a lie, and I don't even thing you're anal enough to expect him to unregister and reregister before and after every single election.



If this were a matter of fact, you'd have a point. Since we can all choose our political affiliations, this isn't a matter of fact as it were, it's simply a matter of party identification. Moore doesn't identify himself as a Democrat, therefore he's not.



If you can find me a quote where Michael Moore says he is not a REGISTERD democrat, than I will conceed the point to you and crawl back into my hole, but based on the information you've provided, you're wrong.
