Choosing to use the words “Michael Moore” and “facts of life” in the same sentence may have been an unfortunate mistake on our part. Seeing those words juxtaposed brings up horrible mental images that we were unprepared for when we typed them.
Nevertheless, Michael Moore and CNN’s Jessica Yellin were guests on Friday’s “Real Time.” Of course, the fat fantasy filmmaker repeated his oft-heard claim that “white America does not like having a black president.”
Believe it or not, Yellin schooled Moore on voter turnout during midterm elections and the fact that Obama’s approval ratings have nothing to do with race.
But…but…but…

"Statistics don’t lie"
Excuse me while I go somewhere you won't hear me laughing my @$$ off.
Not quite Mike ... as per usual, your mouth is running much faster than you mind.18 to 19 .... 66% in favor
30 to 44 .... 52% so right off the bat he's wrong.Jewish ... 78%
Catholic ... 54%Not to mention Black ....95% (no racism there, right?)Anyhow - it's not BHO we don't like, its his policies and they way that the House has been run

Well to be honest... I don't like the man. I hate his policies and such, obviously, but I do not like him as a person. He has shown himself capable of lying time and time again and putting personal gain in front of any type of responsibility. He also acts like he is this elite person that knows better then the rest of us about...well everything. If we were in school, he'd be that sniveling whiny guy that always sucked up to the teachers to try to get a better grade yet always feels he is smarter then everyone else. The guy we'd want to punch *not* because he has knowledge (Or thinks he has knowledge) of various things, but be cause he acts like a douche.
That is the guy that is leading the USA.
SO yah... I don't like him at all as a person.
Just thought I'd put my .02 in XD
A black Constitutionalist Conservative for president? I'm vote for him in a New York second. *
A Half-Cracker™ Liberal socialist? No way, Jose., not in this life-time !!!!!
*- New York second = the amount of time it takes for a NY city taxi behind you to start honking the horn when the light changes.
Um...
I didn't like Obama because because he is a socialist and always has been a socialist. Not because he's black. I could give a crap about his race.
People need to stop bringing race issues up. Seriously. You want to change things? Stop using race as a way to bait people.
Black voters did not put him in office, American voters did, and the last I checked American voters come in all colors. When it comes to money nobody gives a rats ass what color our leader is as long as we're making it. The race card just doesn't play anymore, and we can thank Obama for that, he's proven that black politicians are just as corrupt as white politicians. Good job!
It is a wonderful aspect of America that even an ignorant libtard like Moore can make a pile of money.
obama got the young people, because they are the laziest voters, and didn't read, or watch the news-the reason adult whites didn't vote for barry was that we knew what he is! These retards are just that, retards
I agree with the premise, but I take exception on the generality. As a young person I do admit that when I was younger I didn't care for the political process perhaps my life was concentrated on many other things that were of more importance to me at the time. However still as a young voter I cannot accept being deemed lazy or unread or unable to get on the news or care about the news. I cannot speak about all young voters overall, but I do feel that generalizing like this doesn't help the cause. I have found (to my shame) much younger people who care DEEPLY for the news, what is happening and are doing what they can about it (are also highly intelligent). Giving up on young people is not a good idea they are growing up and we are the ones taking over, so calling us names is not the way to go. If anything older people should take the time to create understandings and closing the gaps and teaching the right ways of things.
As for adult whites it was a great number of adult whites that voted for Obama. Let not get that twisted. It would have been impossible for him to win if a great number of adult whites didn't vote for him. Those of us (of any color of skin) that didn't knew about him if not deeply good enough to know we shouldn't vote for him, but we were outdone by those who had white guilt more than anything.
Back in 2004 Moore attacked Bush voters as "stupid"; now he's attacking white McCain voters as "racist". I'd wager if Obama is kicked out in 2012 fatso will attack us as "stupid racists". I've got news for Moore, leftists have been beating the "stupid" and "racist" drums for the past ten years, nobody is listening anymore.
Time to stick a forklift in Moore's fat ass and turn him over, he's done.
"Statistics don't lie" - spoken by a non-statistician.
