Of course he's biased.

He's also not very factual and does little research these days to back up his claims.

Moore doesn't cite sources for the most part, making his statistics quite unscientific. * He only notes that readers "can keep track of what Bush did and does during his administration" by reading Molly Ivins' syndicated column and the Web sites www.smirkingchimp.com and www.bushwatch.com, Bush haters all.

Even though overinvestment during the tech boom and a sharp drop in business spending are ultimately responsible for the current economic state of affairs, Moore blames the downturn on a conspiracy by the rich to keep their thumbs on the poor.

For some reason, along with many Americans, many Europeans are enamoured of this man's railings.

I read Moore, Ivins, The New York Times and internet rantings with an eye on their prejudice: *they simply cannot accept the fact that Al Bore did not become President in 2000.
