"We like nonfiction and we live in fictitious times. We live in a time where we have fictitious election results that elect a fictitious president. We live in a time where we have a man sending us to war for fictitious reasons."
For all the reaction that caused, I have yet to hear anyone say that a single word of what Michael Moore said last night was false. Maybe it's politically incorrect to remind people of the fact that Bush lost the popular vote. Certainly, I could have done without the idiotic smirk on his face, and would have preferred a political speech more in keeping with the point of his documentary(ie., gun violence). Ironically, for someone who has become a best-selling writer and documentarian by playing fast and loose with the facts, Michael Moore got booed last night because he told the truth.
