In reply to the discussion: Check out what Michael Moore has just posted on his FB page... [View all]Turborama
(22,109 posts)361. I provided a link which takes you to his FB page, it's not my fault that you didn't click on it
If you had you'd clearly see it states it's a share from 350.org's FB page, so there's no plagiarism in what he did.
It's got nothing to do with DU's buttons, either.
If I was purposefully misrepresenting it I wouldn't have provided a link - if you go to the link you'll see I actually posted it 'as is' from his FB page. It's simply your misinterpretation of it that caused you to embarrass yourself so badly - despite my friendly warning you took such vociferous umbrage at, so stop with the strawman argument and just admit you were wrong for once.

I think the only context for oil in a "Foreign Policy" debate will be in the context of WAR.
