The release of Michael Moore's controversial new film Capitalism: A Love Story marks the 20th anniversary of his work in muckraker documentary filmmaking. Whether you agree with his beliefs or not, Moore is clearly the king of pop-political exposés, converting hot-button social issues into blockbuster hits that have grossed over $300 million. His personal financial success is often used by critics as signs of his hypocrisy: "How can you be mad at a system that's made you rich?!" Ah, the contradictions of inequality. So to put Moore's newest film into perspective, here's a look back at some of his greatest hits...

Moore vs. Wolf Blitzer, 2009 PT 1, and PT 2.

After hearing enough, Blitzer gets right to the point: "Are you a Socialist? I'll just ask the question." Moore: "I'm a Christian. And I'm a heterosexual too, if you wanna know that."
