=================================
RC>Hello All!

RC>This is from a editor review of the book

RC>Do as I say, not as I do  by Peter Schweiser


RC>"I don't own a single share of stock," Michael Moore declares. No,
RC>his tax returns show he has owned hundreds of thousands -- profiting
RC>from some of the very companies (like Halliburton and Boeing) he
RC>viciously denounces

RC>How Moore's working-class, "regular guy" pose is contradicted by his
RC>lavish lifestyle and prima donna behavior -- such as traveling the
RC>country in a private jet accompanied by a fleet of private SUVs and
RC>bodyguards

RC>Moore also relentlessly exposes those who fail to meet his standards
RC>of racial fairness and equality. So, of the 134 producers, editors,
RC>cinematographers, composers, and production coordinators Moore he
RC>hired to work on his many movies, how many do you think were black?

RC>The Nation editor Katrina vanden Heuvel: ultra-left class warrior,
RC>the defender of inheritance tax -- and trust-fund heiress who fought
RC>the the IRS all the way to Supreme Court to avoid paying $2 million
RC>the in estate taxes

RC>Princeton "ethics" professor Peter Singer crusades for euthanasia for
RC>the severely disabled and terminally ill. But when it comes to his
RC>own mother, he operates according to more humane principles
RC>(fortunately for her)

RC>During the 2004 campaign, John Kerry complained that the "super-rich"
RC>don't pay their fair share in taxes. Care to guess what percentage of
RC>their income Kerry and his wife, Teresa Heinz Kerry -- who are worth
RC>over $700 million -- are paying in taxes?

RC>Noam Chomsky opposes private property and calls the Pentagon "the
RC>most vile institution on the face of the earth" -- yet he has made
RC>millions in contract work for the Pentagon, owns two luxurious homes,
RC>and set up an irrevocable trust to protect his assets from Uncle Sam

RC>Ted Kennedy favors racial set-asides on federal contracts -- but when
RC>it came to his own investment in an entire city block of Washington,
RC>DC, he got his political friends to help him waive an affirmative
RC>action set-aside

RC>Another of Kennedy's great causes has been support of the estate or
RC>inheritance tax. But, he has repeatedly benefited from an intricate
RC>web of trusts and private foundations that have kept most of the
RC>family pie from ever ending up in the hands of the IRS

RC>Kennedy has introduced dozens of pieces of legislation over the years
RC>to encourage alternative energy sources. But he helped block the Cape
RC>Wind Project -- an effort to provide clean energy for thousands of
RC>homes on Cape Cod -- because the project would be built in one of the
RC>family's favorite sailing and yachting areas

RC>Al Franken habitually calls conservatives "liars" and "mean and
RC>nasty" -- yet as a writer for Saturday Night Live he penned jokes and
RC>skits so mean-spirited they appalled even his colleagues, and he uses
RC>brazen lies for his bestselling books all the time

RC>Hillary Clinton supports the right of thirteen-year-old girls to have
RC>abortions without parental consent -- yet she forbade
RC>thirteen-year-old Chelsea to pierce her ears and enrolled her in a
RC>school that would not distribute condoms to minors

RC>How Hillary, despite her pose as independent feminist and
RC>anti-corporate crusader, used her husband's position as Arkansas
RC>Attorney General to launch her corporate law career - then rode his
RC>political coattails into politics

RC>Ralph Nader: how he speculates in the stocks of companies that might
RC>be influenced by his political activism. How he conceals enormous
RC>wealth and a lavish lifestyle behind a façade of pretended frugality

RC>Nancy Pelosi has made supporting labor unions a cornerstone of her
RC>public career. Yet the vineyards and hotels that comprise her $35
RC>million fortune have one thing in common: they don't use union labor

RC>Barbra Streisand: how, on the three causes with which she seems most
RC>concerned -- poverty, environmentalism and feminism -- she engages in
RC>the very behaviors she says she deplores

Liberals are liars.  They they to foist their lies onto a willing set of 
followers who are too lazy to find out the real truth.
