Geez, you mean you didn't sue her and the school district for being mean to you? I guess she wasn't sensitive to the the damage she was doing to my self-esteem. ***Sniff***

Michael 'the liar' Moore...along with his fellow Hollywood liars...was given an award for lying....
why should this be surprising...?
The greater the lie and the more rabidly Anti American the bigger the award....
Moore is a hero to them.....not because he is a 'great arteest' but because he is a shameless
liar...and rabidly Anti American...
He should have been 'awarded' a scarlet AA to wear around his fat neck
imo

And he's also rumored to be the real writer of "To Kill a Mockingbird."The character Dill, in To Kill A Mockingbird, is based on Capote, though.

Michael Moore's lies and mis-characterizations are to 'documentaries' what the work of Joseph Goebels was to Nazi Germany ... pure deceit-filled propaganda.

Ebert and Roeper gave it two thumbs up. Ebert said he agrees completely with F911's political message. Can't say I'm surprised.

A great book on Capote, that covers that rivalry, (between Capote and Harper Lee) - is Capote, by Gerald Clarke. Unusually fine biography. I don't believe it rumor by the way. But Capote was very annoyed that his life-long friend made such a splash with Mockingbird, which became an instant American classic. Thanks for the info. I'll have to check out that book -- I really enjoyed Clarke's book on Judy Garland.

Long time no see.
How about those Cassini photos?

I am glad that you enjoyed the phrase "feckless crapweasel." It contains two of my favourite verbal arrows in one tidy package. Also, you will find that, when spoken, it rolls off the tongue rather nicely.
Cheers,

Your last statement on that post is funny and creepy on a multitude of levels.

Awesome photos. Hope the rest of the mission goes as well.
Lots of water under the dam since MMC.

There's actually a book, "The Hipster's Handbook", which breaks down the taxonomy for every species of leftist blowhard known to mankind.
I'm pretty sure Moore fits under the category of 'stultus maximus', which is not limited to East Coast, hackey-sack playing girlie men.
The most distinguishing characteristics of this group are:
-hirsute, disheveled look,
-command of obscure and often pointless facts, which are marshaled against their opponent's coherently arranged and cogent arguments, which are often dismissed as either "irrational" or "hateful",
and finally,
-a disgustingly bloated torso that comes from years of sitting on his or her ass, watching ridiculous, taxpayer subsidized programs on public broadcasting.

eeeee-gads! Oh no, no, no...when I think of "mocumentaries", I think of those films created by Christopher Guest, et al that are presented up front as being fictional and for pure entertainment value.
Best in Show
Waiting for Guffman
A Mighty Wind [[not my personal favorite]]
I DO like the idea of categorizing Moore's films as "foc-u-mentaries" though...good one!

LOL! "If you actually pay to see his movie, which is to say you give someone money to lie to you, I urge you in the strongest possible terms to get a vasectomy, because the world has enough idiots."
