The Hollywood Reporter: Your new film was announced in May 2008 as a follow-up to "Fahrenheit 9/11" that would look at America's role in the world. Then the economy tanked. Do you feel pressure to make movies that respond to the zeitgeist?

Michael Moore: That was our cover. From the spring of '08, we were always doing a film about capitalism and corporate America. But, as you've seen from the recent revelations about the health insurance industry's secret campaign to attack my last film (2007's "Sicko"), I have to be extremely dodgy in order to outsmart these corporate guys. I had no way of knowing in May of 2008 that the economy would crash four months later. We were right in the middle of this Wall Street movie when it happened.

Outsmart these coporate guys...

I think he gives himself a little too much credit. Anyhow he goes on to rip the liberals (biting the hand that feeds him if you will).

Quote:

THR: You supported President Obama in the election. How do you grade his response to the financial crisis and the health care issue? How about congressional Democrats?

Moore: I'm still in a stupor of stunned ecstasy that Obama won. And I approve of most everything he's done, from apologizing to the Iranians for America overthrowing their democratically elected president in 1953 to appointing Kumar (actor Kal Penn of the "Harold and Kumar" movies) to a White House position. He is doing the best he can with the mess he inherited, and I and millions of others are counting on him never to forget that he came from the working class and that his people need him now more than ever. As for the congressional Democrats, what a bunch of losers -- weak, scared, stupid. They had better get a clue pretty quick or the Dark Forces will return.

The Dark Forces... LOL its a DnD game to this clown.

Moore is a ****, he is in no way any better than Bill O'Riley and the sort. Regardless of which side of the political spectrum these *******s fall they are doig nothing other than inciting useless hatred on both sides, without even pretending to try to improve on anything, useless sensationalism at its finest, makes me sick.

The Democratic congress deserves to be ripped for the spineless, gutless cowards they are.
