Michael Moore accuses Obama of destroying civil liberties

Michael Moore speaking out against Obama?? Whattt

"Now Moore has come out swinging against the NDAA, too, saying that the White House is embarking on a plan to scrap vital civil rights that should concern every American citizen – despite a relative lack of publicity about the case. "At the moment a lot of people think the NDAA does not look scary. But this sort of thing never looks scary at the start. But the American people will rue the day if they do not stop this," he told the Guardian in an interview.

Moore said he would be seeking to explain the case to his fans. "If the American people understood this, I do believe they would be very, very concerned about it," he said. The force behind such hard-hitting documentaries as Fahrenheit 9/11 and Bowling for Columbine – which took on rightwing issues like President George W Bush's security policy and gun laws – said that liberals were giving Obama a free pass due to his popularity with Democrats. "[Obama] puts this face on it that makes it difficult. It was much easier when the face was Bush," Moore said "We have to work and speak out against the Obama administration and everything they are doing to destroy civil liberties."
