Democrat conspiracy mongers currently pushing for a recount in Ohio in hopes of overturning the presidential election got no help last night from conspiracy monger-in-chief, Michael Moore, who told "Tonight Show" host Jay Leno that President Bush won the contest fair and square.
Asked why Democratic hopes went up in smoke on Election Day, Moore said simply, "I think Bush got more votes."
"The Republicans - I'll give them this - they had a story to tell," the Bush-bashing filmmaker conceded. "The Democrats, often times, aren't very good at telling a story."
Moore explained:
"And the [Bush] story was: Out of the ashes of Sept. 11 rose one man. And he stood on the rubble of lower Manhattan with a bullhorn and he said, 'I will protect you.'
"And he did," Moore added, as the audience began to applaud. "And we were never attacked again."
Dressed in a business suit and clean-shaven for the first time in years, Moore couldn't resist inserting the caveat: "That has nothing to do with whether we will be attacked again."
Still, his advice to disgruntled Dems had nothing to do with recounts or stolen elections or voter disenfranchisement.
"[Bush's victory] was just a couple of percentage points," the chastened-sounding movieman said. "People who voted for Kerry shouldn't be depressed at this point. They should pick themselves up . . . There's another game in four years. And we'll come back and do the best we can."
America got sick and tired of hatefilled rhetoric.
*rick.
For Democrats its 5:18 am, there is a transvestite in your bed, a dead man in your living room, a gun in the hall, your woozy and can't quite clear your head from all the drugs and booze to hear the police at the door screaming to open the door as Michael Moore tells you on your cell phone your on your own he is going back to France.
1) He's heard he is one of the biggest (no pun intended!) reasons the republicans won and 2) he's hyping his book! Maybe he's seen all the bashing backfired on them! At any rate he hardly fit in the chair he was sitting in and looks like a candidate for a heart attack!
Amazing what being turned down by Katie Couric for a dinner date will do to a maggot-gagging sack of putrid entrails.
ROTFLMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You owe me a new keyboard for posting that pic...
And in politics, non-fiction sells better than fiction, Mr. Moore. Which is why your putrid film was a box-office success and a ballot-box bomb.
I believe we have our winner!
Yep, he's pandering for something else, and the Oscar for his fictional documentary is the most like explanation right now. He must have already got the feedback from Hollyweird types that they aren't interested in pursuing his controversy right now; too many movie tickets were sold in the red states for The Passion of the Christ
"I can't believe Michael Moore said this.
Maybe his body is inhabited by aliens? A heck of a lot of them can fit in there."
I don't see why not...his arse is as big as a 'Mother Ship'.
Bathe? He does not want to lose his essential "Frenchness."
Either he's on drugs, off drugs, or he's up to something.
Oh shame on me. I should have figured that one out. Naughty - but accurate.
I watched it last night and the entire time I was saying to myself "What's he up to?"
He's smart and controversial and his appearance as a rich,white Republican type is all part of another strategy I guarantee you.He seemed to be oozing rage.
A very devious and obviously a very angry guy.It must be awful when you find out that you can't "make a difference". Other than making money,the last couple of years were a waste of time for him. He thought that he,personally,could influence a presidential election and he didn't. He found out that he's not that important after all.
