Let us remember some of the brilliant sayings of noted Democratic Party intellectual/thinker Michael Moore:
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/printer-friendly.asp?ARTICLE_ID=30367
"Moore went into a rant about how the passengers on the Sept. 11 planes were scaredy cats because they were mostly white," Alibhai-Brown writes. "If the passengers had included black men, he claimed, those killers, with their puny bodies and unimpressive small knives, would have been crushed by the dudes, who as we all know take no disrespect from anybody."
Here's how "man of the people" socialist Michael Moore treats the little people:
>>After performing to packed audiences for two months, according to IMDb.com, Moore "reportedly flew into a rage" on the second to last night of the engagement and "verbally attacked everyone associated with the theatre because he thought he wasn't being paid enough."
"He stormed around all day screaming at everyone, even the £5-an-hour bar staff, telling them how we were all conmen and useless. Then he went on stage and did it in public," IMDb quotes a member of the stage crew as saying, adding Moore complained during the performance he was making just $750 a night.<<
He also said that the 9/11 terrorists targeted the wrong people, since most people in New York City "didn't vote for Bush". Apparentely, 3,000 dead Republicans would have been just dandy.
In more serious times, this traitor would have been literally (and do I mean literally) tarred, feathered and ridden out of town on a rail. Instead, millions of complete idiots pay to see his worthless movies. _________________ "Liberalism is totalitarianism with a human face." - Thomas Sowell |

As I doubt that many here will waste the money to see Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9.11 I thought you might enjoy readings Chris Hitchen's review of the movie. It'll provide enough meat for watercooler conversation of the mocumentary with your liberal friends with out having to live through the agony of seeing it.
Quote: | One of the many problems with the American left, and indeed of the American left, has been its image and self-image as something rather too solemn, mirthless, herbivorous, dull, monochrome, righteous, and boring. How many times, in my old days at The Nation magazine, did I hear wistful and semienvious ruminations? Where was the radical Firing Line show? Who will be our Rush Limbaugh? I used privately to hope that the emphasis, if the comrades ever got around to it, would be on the first of those and not the second. But the meetings themselves were so mind-numbing and lugubrious that I thought the danger of success on either front was infinitely slight.
Nonetheless, it seems that an answer to this long-felt need is finally beginning to emerge. I exempt Al Franken's unintentionally funny Air America network, to which I gave a couple of interviews in its early days. There, one could hear the reassuring noise of collapsing scenery and tripped-over wires and be reminded once again that correct politics and smooth media presentation are not even distant cousins. With Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11, however, an entirely new note has been struck. Here we glimpse a possible fusion between the turgid routines of MoveOn.org and the filmic standards, if not exactly the filmic skills, of Sergei Eisenstein or Leni Riefenstahl.
To describe this film as dishonest and demagogic would almost be to promote those terms to the level of respectability. To describe this film as a piece of crap would be to run the risk of a discourse that would never again rise above the excremental. To describe it as an exercise in facile crowd-pleasing would be too obvious. Fahrenheit 9/11 is a sinister exercise in moral frivolity, crudely disguised as an exercise in seriousness. It is also a spectacle of abject political cowardice masking itself as a demonstration of "dissenting" bravery. |

I've written three theaters within three miles of my house that are going to show this film. I've told them I'm never going to set foot in their theater again in my life because they've shown this film. I wrote that it's absolutely their right to show this film, but it's also my right to refuse to ever do business with them in the future because they've shown this film.
There are plenty of other things to do in life than see movies, most of which are absolute dreck these days.
Christopher Hitchens has a great article in Slate today in which he absolutely skewers Michael Moore's piece of excrement. One of the moonbat conspiracy theories Moore has been pushing for the past couple of years has to do with the question of who authorized the Saudi Royal Family to fly home shortly after the 9/11 attacks.
Larry King answered that in his Richard Clark interview last month. Leftwing media darling Clark admitted that it was he who authorized that flgiht. Liar Moore never mentions this fact in his propoganda film, even though the interview occurred a month before the movie is to be released. _________________ "Liberalism is totalitarianism with a human face." - Thomas Sowell |
