Michael Moore will be surrounded by more than just fans at the screening of Fahrenheit 9/11 in Crawford, Texas tonight. The gadfly filmmaker plans to show his controversial documentary today in the town where Bush vacations, and a source says he intends on having armed guards there protecting him. As The Scoop reported earlier, Moore has been getting death threats, and a source says the situation has gotten worse. In fact, fellow filmmaker Spike Lee, while promoting his own film She Hate Me, has told interviewers that theyre out to get Moore who has an armed guard 24/7. Moores rep couldnt be reached for comment.

Just more B.S. hype from Pigboy.
No one is stupid enough to waste their time with Moore. He will be the end of himself.
Bowling, anyone?
I say, send him comps and coupons to Red Robin, etc. Not that money is really an object for him any more, but the conveinence factor alone might draw him in (?)......
I hope Michael Moore has to spend every penny he made off "Fullofshit 9/11" on armed guards.
Who'd take a bullet for this pile of trash?
Good Lord! I'm just trying to imagine just how many armed guards would be needed to protect Moore.

The Face of the New Democrat
Exactly. This guy is full of hot air. Someday he will bloviate himself to a natural demise - no one cares enough to hasten the process.
Oh, boo freakin' hoo, Mikey. The more you complain about needing security, the more I realize that YOU Michael are helping to get BUSH elected.
Why is m m attending, other than to be "in your face" to GWB?
Hasn't m m seen the movie yet, is that why he's going?
Why doesn't m m just leave the country if he detests America as much as he says he does.
m m is a scourge.
I'm sure there are a few armed locals in the Crawford area too. If Moore had half a brain, I don't imagine he ought to be threatening any Texans with his "armed guards".
The Mexicans did the same 150 years ago and look where it got them
Bowling for Calamine?.... how rash!.....
"having armed guards there protecting him."
So in other words he's willing to sacrifice somebody's kid's life to save his 'own' behind.
"No one is stupid enough to waste their time with Moore. He will be the end of himself."
Aw, don't be like that. Let's buy him a big dozen count of Krispy-Kreme's, and a gallon of whole milk to wash 'em down.
I heard that Moore has backed out of going to Crawford tonight. Guess those "threats" got a little too threatening. Don't mess with Texas!
It's a publicity stunt. Period!!!!!
The whole Crawford Texs showing is a big put on, By the way I thought Liberals didnt like guns. I guess it depends on who is armed. I hope they are getting top pay.
Eggzactly.

Post about the fat one himself pulling out of the crawford appearance... coincidnce? or Hype?!
HYPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
His movie has fallen quickly after the intial week, he is trying to hype it up again.
I heard that Moore is an NRA member. Can anyone verify this?
Its not being seen in a movie theater, its being viewed in the Crawford High School stadium parking lot.
You gotta love Moore in a Michigan State hat. Ha!
That's a lot of back to watch.
The only people who might want Michael Moore dead are the good folks at Hormel.
His guards should be on the lookout for someone carrying an elephant gun.
Thank goodness he is not a BUCKEYE fan!
Exactly. How many cheeseburgers short of the massive coranary is he now? 5? 10?
Sorry, I didn't hear where it was going to be shown. The high school parking lot? That's even worse. Maybe no many will show up. m m may be sitting alone.
You are correct in that assumption. I'm originally from that area, and I can tell you there are more than a few armed locals in that area.
If he wants to pollute Texas, moore can expect whatever he gets.
True Texans are NOT P.C. wussies.
Exactly, he reminds me of the glutton in the Monty Python movie, "The Meaning of Life".
Notice how everything Michael Moore does,is done to bring the spotlight on himself.
This guy will go anywhere and do anything to keep his mug in the public eye.He knows if he is not out baiting everyone with his propaganda he would not get one ounce of coverage!
He is a truly pathetic person and those that buy into his self aggrandizing views are gullible fools!
Take a bullet?? No who would waste a bullet? Thats anywhere between $0.25 and $0.40 per bullet depending on caliber...
This is such BS. Just more of his self promotion!!
Bowling for Calamari
His new filmabout him eating in Boston's North End!!

Bowling for Krispy Kremes.
SWAMP THING!
One thing a Michigan fan and an Ohio State fan can enjoy together is Michael Moore's love of Michigan State.
Who'd bother to waste a bullet on this walking pile of excrement? It's more of a punishment just forcing him to stay alive and be himself.
Moore is in no danger of getting shot. His bodyguards might have to look out for him choking to death on a stealth ham sandwich.
A big Buckeye high-five to you on that one!
How ironic! The elitist hypocrit can have armed protection, but no one else. What a turd.
So in other words he's willing to sacrifice somebody's kid's life to save his 'own' behind.
Those armed guards are someone's child!! How would you feel if michael moore put your child's life at risk? Huh, huh?
I don't think so. Hormel is too high quality for this. His carcass would be rancid anyway. He couldn't make past the inspection process. All that fat though would make a great deal of soap that could be used to wash out stuart smally's mouth and hopefully wash away the marxist leanings of today's dimbos.
1st rule in Dem Club -- Do ANYTHING to get elected
2nd rule in Dem Club -- Don't get caught doin' rule 1
tru peace...D
