Protesters plan to handout flyers on March 19th that detail "The Cost of Endless War." The pamphlet reads, "1,450 US dead. 10,700 U.S. wounded. 100,000 Iraqis dead. $150 billion spent. 0 reasons to be there." Isn't it amazing what stats and figures didn't make it onto these flyers?

How about "The Cost of Peace in our Time"?

6 million Jews

20 million Russians

2 million Cambodians

200,000 Kurds

2 million Rwandans

The list goes on.

Is he serious, or has the fat just consumed his brain?

How would anyone know the difference?

I remember how stupid i thought liberals were when their main complaint about Rush Limbaugh was "he's fat".

And now the tables are turned.

The "Shamoo" was created by Al Capp.

Actually, Al Capp created the "Shmoo". Shamoo is the domain of Sea World who has named a series of Orca whales "Shamoo".

Shamu is the correct spelling of the killer whale.

Correct. Moore is a self-created Shmuck.

I thought the reference was to the Shmoo's tubbyness.

Michael Moore does this because any mention of his name boosts his income (with the liberal losers being reminded of him yet again---to remind them to go out and buy his books and videos). The ulterior motive is profit. And it feeds his ego, too.

Why do you think Michael Jackson cooked up the whole "I hurt my back" bit in which he showed up for court in his PJs? If MJ really took the advice of his lawyers, he would have changed into more fitting attire. But instead he figures "people will feel sorry for me, being rushed back to court--no time to even change my clothes--after suffering a horrible backache". And people notice him more when he does oddball things...would it have grabbed as much notice if he had donned a suit upon returning to court? It feeds MJs ego...maybe he figures he'll sell some more albums...or at least "get his name in the papers".
Like it isn't already!

By the same token, Moore's "day of protest" calls attention to HIM. Every time it's mentioned on the news,
the fatso gets mentioned with it. More libs buying "Will They Trust Us Again?" or "F-911", etc. Ka-ching!

What's the joke I heard--what do Shamu the Killer Whale and Michael Jackson have in common? They're both black and white and live in an amusement park.

I wonder what Mikey is going to do when he realizes that the NYT just erased all his reasons to hate Bush, by admitting there WAS WMD IN IRAQ in 2003.

The 100,000 figure comes from some neurotic lefty org (can't remember name) that just took a poll of Iraqis asking if they knew anyone who had been killed. They did not bother with the obvious necessity of cross-checking to make sure that they weren't counting the same people over and over. If they bother with that, the figure is more like 15,000.
