Fear, uncertainty, and doubt (and outright lies?) in Bowling for Columbine. Thanks to Alex for the link.

The point is far more fundamental: Bowling for Columbine is dishonest. It is fraudulent. It fixes upon a theme, and advances it, whenever necessary, by deception. To trash Heston, it even uses the audio/video editor to assemble a Heston speech that Heston did not give, and to turn sympathetic phrases into arrogant ones. Moore's object is not to enlighten or to document, but to play his viewer like a violin, to the point where they leave the theater with heartfelt believe in that which is, sadly, quite false.

I found this: http://www.michaelmoore.com/words/wackoattacko/
It seems like most of the things brought up on the web page you're referring to are false, and are just efforts to take away the focus on the real question: Why do Americans need to bring guns everywhere, for example to baseball games, where shooting someone in the parking lot after the game seemed like a normal thing to do?
Sure, not everything Michael Moore says is true (everyone lies from time to time), but how about telling people about the real lies by Moore instead of making up new 'lies'?
