1. I heard rumors that he's getting death threats
that would make me very cranky.

3. Well considering that James Dobson
The dolt from "Focus on the Family" sent Moore's HOME address out to his whole mailing list and encouraged them to send him hate mail....I'm not surprised that some of them have crossed the line to threats of him and his family.

9. ok, never mind
I googled Michael Moore and James Dobson and got an eyeful - I guess this happened back in June around the opening date for FH 9/11.

11. here
http://www.crookedtimber.org/archives/002099.html

It was posted all over the blogosphere a while back and the day after it "broke" (so to speak) their office was flooded with calls. I called them myself and they transferred me to their "communications" department (whatever) where some guy admitted they sent it out.
Here's the text of what was emailed out to their whole subscriber list:

"Filmmaker Michael Moore, writer/director of the new
Bush-bashing documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11," has made quite
a career out of marketing himself as a man of the people,
a populist everyman who fights passionately for the little
guy.

That's why we wanted to make sure "little guys" could let
Moore know exactly what they think about his new movie.

So, if you have an opinion about the film -- in which
Moore plays fast and loose with the facts to build a case
that President Bush is an idiot and the war in Iraq is all
about oil profits -- we suggest you send it to the
following address:

*MM's Address removed*

That's his home -- a condominium this man of the people,
so critical of capitalism, spent $4.5 million on seven
years ago. And please don't worry that it's wrong to use
this address; it's public record, obtained through New
York State mortgage records and Federal Election
Commission filings."

Scary bunch.

5. mr holt has no depth - if Michael talks fast enough he'll run out of
his list of questions, still have time and NOT be able to think of how to fill the airtime.

6. Perhaps even MM is sick&tired of speaking to pre-programmed droids like LH
Edited on Wed Jul-28-04 04:14 PM by Lin
I saw it and yes MM was almost showing his disgust, and I think dissapointment in) Lester H. who could blame him? These idiots don't even wait for the answer let alone LISTEN to it before firing off their next Q.

I wait, hope for, imagine, what real live CURIOUS caring ppl are out there (hello?!) waiting to push these overdue for scrapheap deadheads off the table and DO A REAL JOB of it!

7. har..........did you hear Madeline Albright make exactly THAT point
the other day on the radio

that happened on her book tour

she went to lots of radio stations, almost all wingnuts

they had the same talking points, sometimes in the exact same order

sometimes the idiots just read them off as fast as they could, didn't engage when she answered; just went to the next one, and had lots of time left over. had to end interview early cause they were too STUPID to come up with anything of their own

12. Ever see the MadTV skit "where are the WORDS?" "where have
the words GONE"? "will there ever be a world w/words again?"

The "anchors" walked around like zombies bumping into things, repeating themselves, etc. when the cue cards were gone (can't recall why) but Oh! WHAT a 'perfect' statement 'twas on the sad state of media affairs...:puke:
