Moore = Rush = $$$ != Real Debate

The Washington Post has a good piece today that makes the argument that Michael Moore is the Left's version of Rush Limbaugh, but then goes on to remind people that this is not necesarily a good thing. She reminds us that while these two are political junk food for the faithful - fun arguments that appeal to the conspiracy theorist in all of us, and focus on the extreme foibles of those we dislike - they add very little to real debate in the country. Personally, I enjoy listening to Rush and watching Moore's movies, but I would never confuse one of their diabtribes for the Lincoln/Douglas Debates.
