What happened to the Michael Moore thread?

DVD Talk Legend
somebody posted four screen caps to show that the horton thing, the bush/quayle ad, and a few other murderers - two were whites that were blamed on blacks initially, and how the caption was just that...a caption for the whole montage. then OldDude wouldn't quit with his nitpicky, and completely baseless and misinformed, crap about how the "changed the ad" and blah blah blah. Numanoid posted links to the original campaign ad that illustrated what I, CRM, Numanoid, and a few others were explaining again and again, apparently without comprehension for some. He didn't presnet a fabricated ad, but a montage of images, two that were from Bush/Quayle campaign ads, that illustrated how America has an ingrained fear of murdering and raping black men...and how that fear was used as a campaign tool. You guys were taking a single stitch from a much grander tapestry and trying to call the whole thing a "Lie." it isn't, and wasn't. It was a perfect example of the exercise in picking at minutia and saying that Moore said and did things he simply didn't say or do...and then calling him a liar for saying the things he never said!! The disingenuousness of it all is in hardy's own skewed interpretation....not in anything Moore did.
can someone repost those screen caps and the ads? They completely rebuffed everything you and OldDude were asserting....

How about continuing the arguing in the appropriate forum? This one is for feedback and it appears that's over for this thread.
