"Moore asserts that Iraq under Saddam had never attacked or killed or even threatened (his words) any American. I never quite know whether Moore is as ignorant as he looks, or even if that would be humanly possible."

I have some news for that lying scumbag, Michael Moore. I believe that a US Navy ship was attacked by an Iraqi plane (Saddam Hussein was in charge) during the 1980's.
Out of all the brilliant and mind-bogglingly funny lines I've read at Free Republic, that last one has to be the best :-)
I think I'll be laughing for a week...
