Michael Moore Backs Out Of Crawford Screening

Published on 2004/07/29 in Politics. Closed

What a wimp. I guess he won’t know if W came to see his film or not. There’s breaking news here announcing it. Here’s the excuse:


He does not want to risk distracting from the focus on the good folks working at and supporting the Crawford Peace House, and what he feels is one of the most important messages of the film: the rights of all Americans – not just him – to have differing opinions and to freely voice them.


What a bunch of crap that is. Maybe he’s exhausted after the butt-kicking he got from Ted Koppel. More to come on that.


Actually what I saw on another site is “Republican and hunting advocate Nugent promised that his people are mobilized and looking to ‘kick some ass’”. If I were Moore, I wouldn’t want to go toe to toe with Ted, either. Moore is so fat, Nugent could hit nail him with his bow from a hundred yards with his eyes closed.

Scrambled Eggs And A Side Of Hate, Please

Published on 2004/07/29 in Politics. Closed

An article at NRO gives some interesting quotes from Michael Moore while at the convention. Here’s a few:


“They’re not patriots, they’re hate-triots, and they believe in the politics of hate-triotism. Hate-triotism is where they stand, and patriotism is where real Americans stand.”


“I mean, they are up at six in the morning trying to figure out which minority group they’re going to screw today. The hate, they eat for breakfast. They are going to fight and they are going to smear, and they are going to lie, and they are going to hate.”



Wow, he sure sounds mad. Personally, I didn’t have any hate for breakfast. And I NEVER get up at six in the morning, I’m just not a morning person. I plan who I’m going to screw the night before, that way I can sleep in. And sometimes it just happens spontaneously. For example, just today I was late for work because on the way there, I saw some brown people on the side of the road, so I had to stop and oppress them.

    • Cop Pepper Sprays Moviegoers

    Published on 2004/07/28 in Entertainment. Closed

    At a movie theater in St. Petersburg, FL, Warronnica Harris was at a movie theater when her cell phone rang. She answered the call which prompted Officer John Douglas to shine a flashlight on her and her boyfriend and ask them to leave. When they got to the lobby, the boyfriend turned to ask the cop why he was making them leave, and the officer pepper sprayed them both.


    Now I think it’s extremely rude to answer your cell phone in a movie theater, but I don’t think it rises to the level of having to pepper spray someone after they’ve already peacefully left the theater. Besides, it was a showing of Catwoman. They were probably the only two people in the theater anyway.

    (Nearly) Naked Liberal Watch

    Not letting other naked liberals steal their press, PETA (People Eating Tasteless Alfalfa) decided to put together a “Live Makeout Tour” where people in their underwear roll around on a sidewalk and make out. This is supposed to demonstrate that vegetarians are better lovers.

    First stop: Boise, Idaho. A spokesman for the mayor said, “The city welcomes public discussion on important issues and this is certainly an important issue to some.” Then there’s this bit:


    Though both the city and the state have public indecency laws, Zuzel said he did not believe the demonstration would violate them. Besides, he said, political events are given more leeway in the rules.


    So I guess if they had decided to move on from first base, it would be OK. Perhaps Boise should invite the couple from Norway (NSFW) to the festivities.

    Baring All For Canada

    Published on 2004/07/28 in Entertainment. Closed

    These days, it’s important to make sure that the people coming into your country are who they say they are. So I guess it would follow that if you were applying for a visa to Canada in order to dance at a strip club, you would need proof that you were a stripper. At least that seems to be the logic Canadian immigration officials seem to be following.


    Immigration officers are having to pore through naked pictures of hundreds of exotic dancers to keep impostors out of Canada. Foreign strippers planning to table dance in clubs here must now provide photos of themselves with no clothes on to qualify for a visa for Canada, immigration officials say.


    Here’s my favorite part:


    “They can’t be partially nude,” he said. “If they don’t have pictures in the nude, they are not going to wiggle their bottoms in Canada.”


    I can just hear it now, “Honey, I have to work late tonight. There’s a lot of visa applications to process, eh.” Let’s just hope Sandy Berger hasn’t been asked to look through the photos, or some poor stripper might end up in his pants.

    I Guess They’re A Little Short-Handed in Boston

    Published on 2004/07/27 in Politics. Closed

    According to this Reuters story, Boston doesn’t seem to have enough prostitutes to handle the DNC crowd, so the city’s strip clubs and escort services have been advertising for new recruits to help out during the week’s festivities.


    But if there turns out to be a shortage, that presents a problem. Low supply and high demand means high prices. So what do the less fortunate DNC attendees do if they can’t afford their adult entertainment? Since this is a Democrat show, perhaps they could impose a convention tax on the wealthy attendees and redistribute that to the less fortunate attendees. Those evil rich people already have enough money anyway, right? They have won life’s lottery, they surely won’t miss it.


    Just a thought…

    Well, according to them, yes they are.


    Wow, I’m shocked.
