Michael Moore Blasts Reagan and John Paul II Supporters as Bigots, Responsible for 'Deaths of Thousands' By Matthew Balan Created 01/09/2013 - 4:12pm

On Monday, far-left director Michael Moore went on an anti-Catholic bender at an awards presentation, and also targeted "those who would deify Reagan and Pope John Paul II" as somehow to blame for "the deaths of thousands of people...because of their bigotry."

The New York Post's Page Six on Wednesday spotlighted how the Occupy Wall Street-supporting filmmaker served as a presenter at the New York Film Critics Circle Awards. Moore gave the Best First Film award to fledgling director Armond White, who made a documentary about the radical activist group ACT UP.

Michael Moore | NewsBusters.orgDuring the award presentation, the pro-Fidel Castro Michigan native recounted how ACT UP members disrupted a Mass at St. Patrick's Cathedral in December 1989, with one participant sacrilegiously throwing a consecrated Communion wafer on the floor. Moore praised this illegal demonstration: "I personally like that one. I say that as a former seminarian."

One of the film critics in attendance, Armond White, then shouted down Moore for this compliment of the infamous protest. The unnamed NY Post writer reported that the responded by doubling down on his anti-Catholicism, and adding his shot at Reagan and John Paul II supporters:

...Moore responded, "I've pissed off the Catholics," and began a blessing in Latin. He then went on to say that "those who would deify Reagan and Pope John Paul II are responsible for the deaths of thousands of people . . . because of their bigotry." White — who has dished out his fair share of criticism to Moore in his reviews — was later heard saying that Moore "disparaged Catholics," and told us, "I was offended . . . He was there to present the film and not present a personal political diatribe." Moore says, "I was just describing some of the things of the film . . . [White] is a reactionary conservative [bleep]hole."

Moore can always be counted on for displaying a considerable lack of class.

The radical filmmaker has spent the first week-plus of 2013 by descending further into the abyss. His New Year's resolution was to "stop saying, 'I support the troops'. I don't." On Thursday, Moore added to this anti-military diatribe by accusing the entire country of not actually supporting the troops either. He added, "I beg any young person reading this who's thinking of joining the armed forces to please reconsider."

Michael Moore is actually doing a public service, as he is again showing the far left's true colors. The movement has been anti-Catholic for far longer than they've been anti-American.

I say don’t give the bigot a headline.

He is a fraud. He needs a bathe.

Ah yes Michael Moore. So many fat rolls, so few brain cells. Remind me again why I should care what this nutcase thinks of me.

No, I just despise this fat, foul-smelling slob. He really, really needs a shower, a lot less food, and a psychiatrist.
He is crazy—truly crazy.

Moore the Whore is responsible for the deaths of more than a half-billion Big Macs. Clearly he needs more food to shove into that massive, gaping, insatiable chowder hole of his so nothing supid can come out of it.

Some greasy comrade doesn’t like being relegated to the ashbin of history.

Too bad. The Party is over.

I initially read “Pyncheon” as “Python” and immediately had visions of one of the scenes from The Meaning of Life:

“Would you like a waffaire-theen meent, Monseiur Moore?”

I’ve heard the McDonald’s in his neighborhood changed their sign to read “Trillions and Trillions Served.”
