In yesterday’s post I pointed out that Michael Moore does not foreground the links between the campaign funding Goldman Sachs and others gave Obama and Obama’s economic policies thus far, speculating that Moore was going a little easy on the big O.  Well, Moore did an interview with ABC’s Nightline in which he says that he put that piece in the movie basically to say to Obama, “we’re watching you.” This makes sense to me. He also states, as I suggested yesterday, that the subject of this film, capitalism,  is really what he’s been talking about in most of his other film.

Here are some links.

The Nightline page, nicely titled “Michael Moore on Capitalism: ‘Anti-Christian,’ ‘Anti-American’ System”

A clip of him telling Obama we’re watching him.
