Michael Moore has established himself as someone who just won't shut up, go away, or otherwise do what political and corporate fat cats would like him to do.
Nothing but the truth is sacred in this hillarious screed on the state of the USA. With chapter headings such as "If Clinton Had Balls..." and "Why Doesn't General Motors Sell Crack?" setting the tone for a biting indictment of American corporate politics, Moore's take-no-prisoners attitude is brutally funny, insightful, irrepressible. The issues raised are universal; here Michael Moore lifts the veil on the people who set themselved up as our role models and hysterically exposes their vulnerable underbellies.
