       Speaking out against the movie American Sniper, Moore tweets the
       following:

       > My uncle killed by sniper in WW2. We were taught snipers were
       cowards. Will shoot u in the back. Snipers aren’t heroes. And
       invaders r worse

       Obviously talking out of his a$$ because his mouth should be too
       smart to utter such stupidity.

       Most people with a brain already knew that Michael Moore is a
       moron.
       He is jealous of this movies success. Because his movies are so
       terrible.

       Correct Snickers.  American Sniper made more in it's first
       weekend than all of Moore's movies combined.  Chris Kyle was a
       Navy Seal who served four tours of duty.  Michael Moore is a big
       puke who...... well, is Michael Moore.

       I'll agree with that but he does have a point on this one,
       that's a common attitude among-st some vets.  Take a WW11 US
       Marine in the Pacific, as terrible as that was, it was the Jap
       sniper that never let them take their guard down, even for a
       second.  When your buddies die just for walking 15 feet away to
       take a $hit during down time, the sniper that took him out is
       not highly respected.
       Even our own snipers, like special ops guys are not always
       highly regarded.  They come onto our base camps, demand support
       and never reciprocate.  Sleep off in a corner hootch, only hang
       with themselves.  Operate independently, demand to know exactly
       what we are doing but never offer up what they are doing.
       Prolly best to compare them to field goal kickers, important to
       the team but treated suspiciously and kept at a distance.
       The Brits even classify sniping as psychological warfare that
       induces terror into the enemy.

       That may very well be true.  However the people expressing this
       opinion, as you clearly state, are vets.  It's a been there done
       that kind of thing.  Moore, who hasn't been has no right to be
       calling anyone who has served a coward.  Especially a Navy Seal
       who has served his country honorable through four tours.
       It seems the far left continues to squirm through the success of
       this movie with the near record breaking attendance.  Moore
       continues to try to make himself relevant by tweeting  "What
       would Jesus do".
       Howard Dean states that those attending te movie are "angry" and
       are probably in the Tea Party.
       That well know leftists Bill Maher calls Kyle a "psychopath
       patriot."
       Why is it a sniper is considered a coward yet pilots and those
       that operate drones hundreds of miles away, (or those that order
       these strikes for that matter) aren't?
       Seriously, any movie that has the left so up in arms has to be a
       must see!!  :D

       Well Bill, which one is it? If a patriot is defined as one who
       puts everything aside for his country how can he be a
       psychopath? A psychopath is someone is someone void of any
       empathy for anyone other than himself. These two concepts are
       mutually exclusive.
       It has been theorized that the following demonstration can
       screen out psychopaths. While the method is far  from foolproof
       it is still kind fun to watch.

       Trolly, I agree with you 100%. That fata$$ Moore has NO RIGHT to
       judge someone who has put their life on the line for the service
       of our country.
       I consider myself a liberal (not so for the first 20 years of my
       adult voting life) but I applaud the success of this movie. I
       feel the same disdain for the people who are calling this
       soldier names as I had for the "peace-loving" college students
       who called the soldiers of Vietnam baby killers, from the safety
       of their dorm rooms.
       I enjoy Bill Maher's show for the most part. But he crossed the
       line after 9/11, and he's crossed the line now.
