Moore

It's not hard to find conservative critics of paleoleftist filmmaker and polemicist Michael Moore.

Now, even some of his sympathizers are getting the picture. Steven Whitty, who describes himself as sympathetic to much of Moore's politics, writes this for the Newark Star-Ledger, wondering about Moore's tendency to make absolutely everything personal :

I am beginning to wonder if it is all personal, although not quite in the way Moore imagines. And I am beginning to believe that "Bowling for Columbine" [Moore's new movie] may be the movie Michael Moore was meant to make all along -- a story about how Americans never see the real enemies hiding among them, all helpfully pointed out by a man who's never had trouble keeping track of his.
