An Open Letter to God, from Michael Moore Dear God, The other night, James Dobson's ministry asked all believers to pray for a storm on Thursday night so that the Obama acceptance speech outdoors in Denver would have to be canceled. I see that You have answered Dr. Dobson's prayers -- except the storm You have sent to earth is not over Denver, but on its way to New Orleans! In fact, You have scheduled it to hit Louisiana at exactly the moment that George W. Bush is to deliver his speech at the Republican National Convention. Now, heavenly Father,...

...Among the worst of her comments, O'Donnell derided airhead pseudo-conservative Elisabeth Hasselbeck (who is ZERO match for O'Donnell on the intellectual scale) for calling KSM a "terrorist," saying, "So, calling him a terrorist robs him of all of his humanity?" WHAT?!!!!! This man planned the 9/11 attacks that murdered 3,000 Americans. And Rosie O'Donnell is worried we will "rob him of all humanity" because we call him a "terrorist." Hello . . . ?! O'Donnell's comments were not only outrageous, they showed her utter stupidity about the entire Khalid Sheikh Mohammed history and situation. O'Donnell showed the well-known photo of...

When there is a new outrage, I have to download some of my existing outrages, to make room. -- Al Gore CANNES, France -- What he wants you to know is that he has not made a political film. Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth" tries to move outside politics and focus on the facts of global warming. Gore says those facts are established, the returns are in, there is almost unanimous scientific agreement about them, and we may have about 10 years before the earth reaches a tipping point from which it cannot recover. He has been traveling the world...

New Hampshire Doctor Outraged By Complaint ROCHESTER, N.H. -- The New Hampshire attorney general is investigating a Rochester doctor because a patient complained that he bluntly told her she needed to lose weight. Dr. Terry Bennett said that he's outraged by what he calls a baseless complaint. A patient was apparently insulted when Bennett told her that she was obese and could only get healthier by losing weight. "It's an epidemic in the United States, and it's croaking us," Bennett said. Bennett said that it's a lecture he gives to many of his overweight patients. "It's your weight, ... and...

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Arguably Iraq's most popular Shiite group, followers of radical cleric Muqtada al-Sadr have packed away their guns and now speak of "political resistance" rather than martyrdom in battle. Once dismissed as an upstart, the portly al-Sadr has been transformed into a respectable political figure, commanding the loyalty of key lawmakers and several Cabinet ministers. "We are growing stronger and our appeal is becoming wider," Ibrahim al-Jaberi, a senior official at al-Sadr's office in Sadr City, said Saturday. Sadr City is a sprawling Baghdad neighborhood that is home to some 2.5 million Shiites and the largest bastion of...

After hearing clips of Senator Kennedy's anti-American screed played over and over on the radio today, I thought I'd leave a message for him on his Web site to offer a screed of my own. On the first page of the site (once you select high- or low-bandwidth), an image of an American soldier appears under the "Issue Spotlight" section. Is it a photo that acknowledges the achivement of bringing democracy to the Middle East? Is it an image of an American soldier courageously defeating the terrorist enemy? Of course not--you obviously wouldn't find such things on the Web site...

Make no mistake: Michael Moore is seriously going to try to get his "Fahrenheit 9/11" nominated for Best Picture. Moore was a guest last night at the premiere of Terry George's beautifully done "Hotel Rwanda," along with Daniel Day-Lewis, Susan Sarandon and Willem Dafoe. The characteristically slovenly Moore was sans his trademark baseball hat and sported a great haircut as he stumped for Academy support. "The screeners go out this week and we have a great idea for an Oscar campaign," Moore said. "Now you can make your vote really count." The appeal is obviously to blue-state voters. Moore is...

Moore posts collage of war dead

Two 'highlights' from Elizabeth Edwards' just-completed interview on the Larry King show: 1. in describing the need to bring the country back together after the election, she expressed the fear W would be incapable of doing it, because he engaged in "character assassination" during the campaign; and 2. asked what her priorities would be if her husband and Kerry are elected, she mentioned her desire to be an advocate for military families, saying they haven't been fairly treated, and that military families hesitate to criticize W for fear of "recriminations by the Commander-in-Chief."

Copywrite prevents the posting of this article. Here is a link...Rossie: Hard to argue with the reality in 'Fahrenheit' This is one of the most disgusting articles I have ever read in support of Moore and his propaganda piece of crap.

Undaunted after being booted off the stage by the Aladin Casino in Las Vegas for making pro-Michael Moore comments, the singer did an encore speech in a concert Sunday night, again igniting the audience.'Half the crowd heartily applauded her praise for Moore, the other half booed,' reports the San Diego Tribune. 'In an instant, the outdoor venue on Shelter Island filled with a roar of cheers and jeers the grew to a near fever pitch.'Rondstadt made a few other political references that evening as well.She dedicated 'Straighten up and Fly Right' to the good folks at Enron who brought us...

Linda Ronstadt has made it clear she will continue inserting her vitriolic political commentary into her concerts. I think the the venues hosting them should know that customers like us go to concerts to hear music and be entertained not lectured, screemed at or propagandized. If we want politics, we will turn on the news or read a paper. Let these venues know that we will cancel are tickets and refuse to see any more Ronstadt concerts until she performs as she was hired to do and why we bought tickets. Mention that you intend to tell your friends, relatives...

LOS ANGELES - Linda Ronstadt said she'll continue to praise Michael Moore and his film "Fahrenheit 9/11" on stage despite an angry reaction at a Las Vegas concert. "This is an election year," she told the Los Angeles Times Tuesday. "I want people to get their head up out of their mashed potatoes and learn something about the issues and go and vote. ... I'm not telling them how to vote. I'm saying, get information about the issues." When Ronstadt praised Moore and his documentary Saturday at the Aladdin hotel-casino, some in the audience stormed out of the theater and...

Linda Ronstadt was booed and kicked out of a Las Vegas casino for praising Michael Moore and his film Fahrenheit 9/11 on stage. Ronstadt called Moore a "great American patriot" and "someone who is spreading the truth" during a performance at the Aladdin. Some among the crowd of 4,500 stormed out, tore down concert posters and tossed cocktails into the air, reports the BBC. Aladdin president Bill Timmins said Ronstadt was escorted off the property and was not even allowed to return to her hotel suite. Ronstadt "spoiled a wonderful evening for our guests and we had to do something...

Lewisburg, Pennsylvania-AP -- A theater operator is offering Republicans the chance to see the movie, "Fahrenheit 9/11" for free. Eric Faden (FAY'den) of Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, says he found that few of his conservative friends were watching the movie because they didn't want to support the film's director financially. So on Saturday he's offering to buy tickets for any card-carrying Republicans who want to see it at a special showing. Faden says he's not trying to convince anyone that director Michael Moore is right. He says the film is "fantastic" but also "fantastically flawed." A local Republican leader is praising Faden...

Michael Moore, director of “Fahrenheit 9/11,” delivered to Korean viewers a message in which he wished them to carry on a campaign against the dispatch of additional troops to Iraq. Michael Moore issued words of hope and pleading in his first official press conference since the release of the film at the Essex House Hotel in New York with about 200 local and foreign reporters present. According to Cinema People, the company in charge of the PR for the movie in Korea, Michael Moore was asked whether he wished to convey any messages through "Fahrenheit 9/11" to the Korean...

BAGHDAD, Iraq - The spokesman for militant Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr tempered threats to continue fighting Monday, saying his movement only planned to wage "peaceful resistance" against the interim government. Al-Sadr issued a statement Sunday from his office in the Shiite holy city of Najaf calling the new interim Iraqi government "illegitimate" and pledging "to continue resisting oppression and occupation to our last drop of blood." But Sadr's spokesman in Baghdad, Mahmoud al-Soudani, called a news conference Monday to clarify that the statement was not a call to arms. He said that many of al-Sadr's supporters in Baghdad had begun...

ASHLAND, Ore. – Whooping and hollering greeted Michael Moore's statement that his virulently anti-Bush film "Fahrenheit 9/11" beat out Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ." "I think Jesus had something to do with that," said Moore during Monday's meeting at Southern Oregon University in Ashland, Ore., part of a national event sponsored by MoveOn.org. Comparing the initial attendance stats for the two films – and accentuating the one or two measures by which, says Moore, "Fahrenheit" edged out "Passion" – Moore boasted: "I've been feeling for a month He's been very upset at the [selling of] that movie. So...

New Moore Project The next victim is Blair U.S. filmmaker Michael Moore had just investigated the connections of the Bush family to influential Saudis in his film "Fahrenheit 9/11". Now, because of his role in the Iraq war, it's supposed to be British premier Tony Blair's turn. REUTERS Polemic Michael Moore: "Blair isn't an idiot" Los Angeles - "From my point of view Blair has more responsibility for this war in Iraq than George W. Bush", justified Michael Moore his latest project yesterday. "Because Blair knows better. Blair isn't an idiot." He just couldn't understand how Blair allowed himself to...

The rearing of grossly overweight pigs in Taiwan for ritual slaughter has been condemned by animal welfare groups. They said it was time to end the annual "Pigs of God" contests that revolved around the force-feeding of animals to see which could achieve the greatest mass. Pigs weighing in excess of 900 kilograms have been reported. The animals, which are incapable of standing, are dragged in front of thousands of people before having their throats cut. The Environment and Animals Society of Taiwan (East) raised the plight of the pigs this week at a news conference. "This competition, which involves...

Peddling his new film Farenheit 9/11 to the dupes overseas

Outspoken political documentary pundit Michael Moore has been named “Stupid Person of the Year” by Time Magazine. Moore seemed ecstatic at receiving the award, believing that the title was really an honorary one. "Time Magazine is using a double negative, which really means it is a positive," said Moore. "You see, the word ‘stupid’ is a negative and the name ‘Michael Moore’ is a negative, therefore they cancel each other out. So I see that this is really an Intelligent Person of the Year award. After all, only a stupid person wouldn’t understand what I just said." Time Magazine staff...

I am away on business and the hotel room does not get Fox or even MSNBC, so I am forced to watch CNN. And there was his fat puss on the screen.He was quiet, and his rhetoric was delivered in measured tones. He must have said ten times how Brown knew him well; he tried to present himself as just a regular American kinda guy who was merely exercising his right to dissent.Brown did press him a bit: (Paraphrase)"But Michael, was this really the right time and place?" No backtracking by fat boy; he held his position, but his tone...

Who is he? Michael Moore is the producer of leftist "crockumentaries" such as 'Bowling of Columbine', a documentary so factually flawed that even its title is based on a false urban legend. Generally, his documentaries mock conservative targets such as the NRA. Moore recently used his acceptance speech at the Oscars to bash President Bush, saying "We live in a time where we have a man sending us to war for fictitious reasons. Whether it is the fiction of duct tape or the fiction of orange alerts, we are against this war, Mr. Bush. Shame on you, Mr. Bush!". Moore...

Conservative national AM talk show host Mike Gallagher is planning a pro-USA concert in upstate SC on May 1, 2003 to rival the Dixie Chicks tour debut at Greenville's Bi-Lo Center. Gallagher plans to donate all proceeds to families of the U.S. Armed Forces in the Middle East. He is actively pursuing Charlie Daniels to be the headlining act, but also mentioned Toby Keith. A location has not been chosen as of yet, but Spartanburg Memorial Auditorium, The Peace Center, G-Braves stadium, and the Carolina Metroplex were mentioned. Tune in to the Mike Gallagher show (WORD 950 and 1330 AM...

It started out as a fashion show for full figured gals, but Roseanne Barr the mistress of the public spectacle, quickly turned Tuesday's Lane Bryant fashion show into a demo for the disenfranchised. 'Are there any fat people in the house,' brayed the washed up comic. Cheers rose from the crowd at the Manhattan Center display of plus size lingerie and 'cabaret attire.''Are there any gay people in the house?' she asked. Louder cheering. 'What about the Jews?' she continued. Still more cheers.Roseanne (who has slimmed down a bit herself) wen on to tell of her love for the 'Hitler...
