Do you approve of Michael Moore's debating methods then?

I'm pretty unabashedly socially liberal (I'm Canadian - it comes with
the territory) and I regard Michael Moore as a complete tool. One of
those guys that you wish wasn't on your "side". He undercuts valid
arguments by distortions, careful editing, and cherry-picking the data
in order to present as one-sided a case as possible. He's an
embarassment to whatever topic he defends.

Are you prepared to say the same about Ben Stein and movies which
compare evolutionists to Nazis?
