Less is Moore
- by Mia T, Sunday, March 23, 2003
"We live in the time where we have fictitious election results that elect a fictitious president. We live in a time where we have a man sending us to war for fictitious reasons whether it's the fiction of duct tape or the fiction of orange alerts. We are against this war, Mr. Bush. Shame on you, Mr. Bush. Shame on you."
Michael Moore, accepting Oscar for best documentary feature |
Less is Moore
Corollary: The utility of useful-idiot Hollywood varies directly with the box office.
Not only did Hollywood give Moore a standing O (before the "boos," i.e., before Moore opened his mouth), they voted for Moore to get the Oscar in the first place.
Hollywood anticipated a more nuanced acceptance speech from Moore; indeed, Hollywood expected Moore's win to speak for itself
and for them (the hypocritical cowards)!
But Moore is too dim-witted to have understood that calculus

- THE CLINTONS--AMERICA'S BIGGEST BLUNDER
- Hear Bush 41 Warn Us--October 19, 1992*
hear
*Thanx to Cloud William for text and audio
LEHRER: President Bush, your closing statement, sir.
PRESIDENT BUSH: Three weeks from now--two weeks from tomorrow, America goes to the polls and you're going to have to decide who you want to lead this country ...
On foreign affairs, some think it's irrelevant. I believe it's not. We're living in an interconnected world...And if a crisis comes up, ask who has the judgment and the experience and, yes, the character to make the right decision?
And, lastly, the other night on character Governor Clinton said it's not the character of the president but the character of the presidency. I couldn't disagree more. Horace Greeley said the only thing that endures is character. And I think it was Justice Black who talked about great nations, like great men, must keep their word.
And so the question is, who will safeguard this nation, who will safeguard our people and our children? I need your support, I ask for your support. And may God bless the United States of America.
(Applause)

Hear clinton stupidity, smallness, banality, fecklessness, ineptitude, prevarication, corruption, perfidy and utter failure directly from the rapist, himself. clinton provides the perfect foil for Bush, who makes a cameo appearance or two.
Pay special attention to Dan Rather's little story about terrorism hitting the U.S. "bigtime" during the clintons' tenure.
In particular, connect the following dots: the '93 WTC bombing. a certain bin Laden protégé and clinton's admission that he passed up bin Laden. Note clinton's spurious argument for this monumental failure.
To this day, clinton seems not to understand that bin Laden is -- and was in 1996 -- an enemy of the state, not a simple criminal.
clinton still seems not to get it -- the same terrorist --the terrorist he refused to take--hit the same building in '93.
Notwithstanding this, to hear clinton tell it, his disastrous decision not to take bin Laden when offered on a silver platter by Sudan, (arguably the worst decision ever made by a president), derived from his scrupulous avoidance of abusing power and trashing laws...
Yeah, right.
HEAR:
- the attacks on America
- Dan Rather ruminating on the terrorism that came to America "bigtime" during clinton years
- Dan Rather relating OBL protégé, Ramzi Yousef threat to clinton FBI that the terrorists WILL complete the job
- the clinton non-response to terror
- FDR response (says national security a president's raison d'être)
- Bush response:
"I can hear YOU...," "I [as opposed to clinton] will not wait on events, while dangers gather," etc.
- Mike Moran "Osama bin Laden, you can kiss my royal Irish ass" battle cry
- "go home hillary!" chant, etc.

A Fish Rots from the Head
Investor's Business Daily
Ijaz, an admitted Clinton supporter who helped negotiate these opportunities to nab bin Laden, said, "The silence of the Clinton administration in responding to these offers was deafening."
Ijaz says that three months before bin Laden's men blew up the USS Cole in Yemen, he "brought the White House another plausible offer to deal with bin Laden, by then known to be involved in the embassy bombings (in Tanzania and Kenya)... But senior Clinton officials sabotaged the offer."
Clinton's apparent boredom with vital information extended beyond Sudanese intelligence officers to his own intelligence officers. His first CIA director, James Woolsey, couldn't get a meeting with Clinton in the two years he served. Woolsey left the Clinton administration disgusted with its slovenly approach to national security. ...
To hear Clinton now say "We must do more to reduce the pool of potential terrorists" is thus beyond farce. He had numerous opportunities to reduce that pool, and he blew it.
The pool, in fact, grew larger on Clinton's watch, as he spent his final days giving pardons to drug dealers, Puerto Rican terrorists and Marc Rich, a fugitive who topped America's most-wanted list.

(SHE knew, "you know," nuttin')
- Meet the Press, 12-09-01

Mia T, 12-09-01
-
- Clinton's failure to grasp the opportunity to unravel increasingly organized extremists, coupled with Berger's assessments of their potential to directly threaten the U.S., represents one of the most serious foreign policy failures in American history
-
Clinton Let Bin Laden Slip Away and Metastasize
-
- Bill Clinton may not be the worst president America has had, but surely he is the worst person to be president.*
-
-GEORGE WILL, Sleaze, the sequel
-
-
Had George Will written Sleaze, the sequel (the "sequel" is, of course, hillary) after 9-11-01, I suspect that he would have had to forgo the above conceit, as the doubt expressed in the setup phrase was, from that day forward, no longer operational.
Indeed, assessing the clinton presidency an abject failure is not inconsistent with commentary coming from the left, most recently the LA Times: "Clinton Let Bin Laden Slip Away and Metastasize."
When the clintons left office, I predicted that the country would eventually learn--sadly, the hard way--that this depraved, self-absorbed and inept pair had placed America (and the world) in mortal danger. But I was thinking years, not months.
It is very significant that hillary clinton didn't deny clinton culpability for the terrorism. (Meet the Press, 12-09-01), notwithstanding tired tactics (if you can't pass the buck, spread the blame) and chronic "KnowNothing Victim Clinton" self-exclusion.
If leftist pandering keeps the disenfranchized down in perpetuity, clinton pandering,("it's the economy, stupid"), kept the middle and upper classes wilfully ignorant for eight years.
And ironically, both results (leftist social policy and the clinton economy) are equally illusory, fraudulent. It is becoming increasingly clear that clinton covertly cooked the books even as he assiduously avoided essential actions that would have negatively impacted the economy--the ultimate source of his continued power--actions like, say, going after the terrorists.
It is critically important that hillary clinton fail in her grasp for power; read Peggy Noonan's little book, 'The Case Against Hillary Clinton' and Barbara Olson's two books; it is critical that the West de-clintonize, but that will be automatic once it is understood that the clintons risked civilization itself in order to gain and retain power.
It shouldn't take books, however, to see that a leader is a dangerous, self-absorbed sicko. People should be able to figure that out for themselves. The electorate must be taught to think, to reason. It must be able to spot spin, especially in this age of the electronic demagogue.
I am not hopeful. As Bertrand Russell noted, "Most people would sooner die than think; in fact, they do so. "

*George Will continues: There is reason to believe that he is a rapist ("You better get some ice on that," Juanita Broaddrick says he told her concerning her bit lip), and that he bombed a country to distract attention from legal difficulties arising from his glandular life, and that. ... Furthermore, the bargain that he and his wife call a marriage refutes the axiom that opposites attract. Rather, she, as much as he, perhaps even more so, incarnates Clintonism

- By editing out clinton's culpability for 9/11, Hollywood edits out its own culpability for 9/11
-
Columbia Pictures' "Black Hawk Down," the holiday action adventure movie about the 1993 Somalia debacle that cost 18 U.S. soldiers their lives, was set to explicity blame ex-President Clinton for the 9/11 terrorist attacks before the film's director and producers decided to soft-peddle the connection. In mid-November, before the decision to tone down the Clinton angle, the film was previewed for a handful journalists. Before its final edit "Black Hawk's" closing crawl highlighted a series of events following the Somalia mission, including Clinton's humiliating troop withdrawal from the country, the humanitarian disasters in Rwanda, Bosnia and Kosovo and, finally, the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11. "With what happened in Mogadishu, with the way that all came down, you end up with the terrorism we see today," the film's producer Joe Roth told the New York Times on Wednesday. "It's so obvious now, eight years later." Roth said his partner Jerry Bruckheimer and "Black Hawk's" director Ridley Scott agreed with him that "we would be remiss in not making this connection to the general audience." But ultimately the filmakers, along with Mark Bowden, author of the best-selling book upon which the movie is based, decided that blaming Clinton explicitly would be "unnecessary and too distracting."'

As Riefenstahl told it, editing-to-perfection was crucial....By editing out a shot of Hitler wiping his nose and including instead "more interesting expressions," by eliminating the human, Riefenstahl eliminated the inhuman. Film Noir in the White House |

-
-
- Leni Riefenstahl, the film genius who outmaneuvered propaganda minister, Joseph Goebbels to chronicle Hitler's 1934 Nuremberg rallies in perhaps the most notorious documentary ever filmed, Triumph of the Will, symbolizes the naïve actress and director who is induced to deal with devils -- NAZI-pantalooned then, NAZI-pantless/ and pantsuited now . . .
-
- After the war, Riefenstahl excused her effort as pure documentary -- watch for Streisand, Spielberg, Geffen et al. to do the same one day -- yet she compiled one section, Hitler's motorcade to Munich, from several different events and shot the closeups of Nazi leaders at the podium in a staged studio sequence.
-
- As Riefenstahl told it, editing-to-perfection was crucial. She insisted that the finished quality of Triumph of Will came from her editing, not from any imposition of "posed shots" or choreography on her part. With her innovative editing techniques, Riefenstahl deliberately and selectively aestheticized Hitler and the Congress' proceedings. By editing out a shot of Hitler wiping his nose and including instead "more interesting expressions," by eliminating the human, Riefenstahl eliminated the inhuman.
-
- The only difference today, in this era of ubiquitous cameras, continuous news and the shameless auteur-tyrant, is that the useful-idiot Washington Press Corps, spun by and on the Hollywood-Arkansas Axis, edits out the clintons' inhumanity -- and ineptitude -- in real time. . .

- HEADLINE: Dead hero's father tears into Clinton
- BYLINE: James Adams
-
-
- It was the moment President Bill Clinton wanted to restore his tattered
- reputation with the military before his departure for the D-Day celebrations
- in Europe this week, James Adams reports.
-
- He had just presented posthumous Congressional Medals of Honour, America's
- highest military decoration, to the widows of two soldiers for valour in
- Somalia. After inviting the families for a moment of quiet reflection in the
- Oval Office, the president approached Herbert Shughart, the father of one of
- the two soldiers, and offered his hand.
-
- To his astonishment the handshake was declined. ''You are not fit to be
- president of the United States,'' said Shughart Senior. ''The blame for my
- son' s death rests with the White House and with you. You are not fit to
- command.''
-
- The president reeled and the unprecedented onslaught continued for some
- minutes. According to witnesses it was a ''highly charged emotional moment''
- which resulted in Clinton trying to explain to Shughart,Sr. why the events
- of that day last October were not his fault.
-
- Shughart and his colleague, both sergeants, were killed trying to rescue
- fellow rangers from a vicious fire-fight in which 18 died and 75 were
- wounded. A later Pentagon investigation revealed that the troops had been
- refused the ri ght equipment and there was no political or military plan to
- justify the Americ an presence in Somalia.
-
- Although the president has tried to escape the blame, he is largely credited
- with the failure of the whole American effort to bring peace to Somalia.
- According to witnesses to the Oval Office scene, the Shughart family
- remained unconvinced by the president's arguments.
-
- ''The medal doesn't help anything, other than that we are grateful that
- Randy will be remembered in such an honourable way,'' said Lois Shughart,
- the soldier's mother.

- Not Joe Klein's Primary Colors. And not Jack Stanton.
- bill clinton is straight out of
- Stanley Kubrick's A CLOCKWORK ORANGE.
-
- clinton is Alex,
- one of the few truly amoral characters in either film or literature;
- not quite as Kubrick (or Burgess) had imagined him, however,
- but rumpled, wrinkled, paunchy, edematous,
- stripped of the youth-excuse
- after 30 additional, pathetic, recidivistic years
- of marauding, stomping, raping, gangbanging, deceiving and destroying.
-
- Like A CLOCKWORK ORANGE, the story of bill clinton
- is the story about a society that has lost its capacity for moral choice.
- But unlike in the less fabulous and no more ironic fable,
- clinton is not mere nascent symbol but nihilistic agent.
-
- clinton, like Alex, is the leader of the gang, the "droogies."
- Eerily prefigured by the rocking, crooked phallus,
- clinton's a conscienceless sadist
- who thrills at risk and gratuitous destruction,
- whose sexual and non-sexual impotence
- is at the root of his obsession with "the old inout."
-
- When Alex kills a woman during a rape, Alex is sent to prison.
- When clinton rapes women, girls, his country and God knows what else. . .
- and kills? --- check out those fourscore-plus deaths, please!
- And don't forget the wag-the-dog, desperately-seeking-a-legacy bombings,
- or the cold-blooded Ricky Ray Rector execution---
- not clinton but society is imprisoned,
- imprisoned in clinton's
- besmirched, semen-stained, feckless presidency.
-
- A risible and repulsive result;
- yet not even the punch line.
-
- While Alex is conditioned in prison with aversion therapy,
- transmuted into a moral robot who becomes nauseated
- by the mere thought of sex and violence,
- bill clinton and his Thought Police,
- in a perverse reverse aversion,
- have conditioned society's collective brain
- into not mere acquiescence but twisted admiration.
-
- In the end,
- if clinton's arrogant, ruthless, reckless nature is restored to him,
- it seems the joke will be on all of us,
- for it will be a victory for infinite victimhood and irresponsibility,
- for seduction, for violence, for nihilism, for anarchy.
-
- We will have set apart clinton as the hero
- by making his victims less human than he;
- we will have allowed clinton to carefully estrange us from his victims
- so that we can enjoy the rapes and the beatings
- as much as clinton himself does.

So right, IMHO, and recall Richard Gere around 9-11 and who is in Chicago. This is yet another see through yet subtle for the sheeple Hollywood attempt to associate certain cultivated useful idiots with their message. Moore is a skunk and his movie was a simplistic attempt to mask the cultural decay of the Clinton years as symbolised by his movie.
Columbine was trivialised by a Hollywood intent on marketing to the lowest common denominator.
