A capitalist wolf in creep's clothing [Moore rips off Columbine parents]
Rocky Mountain News (via The Corner) ^ | October 18, 2003 | Ann M. Kechter

Letter to Editor:

Recently, a co-worker asked me if I had seen the movie Bowling for Columbine yet, I told her absolutely not! My answer surprised her, given the fact my son, Matthew, was one of the 13 murdered during the deadliest school shooting in our country's history. I explained to her that prior to the public release of the movie the families of the injured and dead were invited by Michael Moore to attend a preview screening. How thoughtful.

Our family and others considered attending because we were genuinely interested in his message to the public regarding gun control and school violence.

However, once we discovered he was going to charge us admission we refrained from doing so.

It's laughable that Moore attempts to portray himself as an anti-establishment liberal who is the voice of the common folk, when in fact he is no better than the greedy capitalists he shuns. Maybe now that he has made millions of dollars off the blood of our children he could toss a DVD or two our way to view.

Excellent slam of Michael Moore here, from the parent of a Columbine victim.

To call Michael Moore a "wolf" is a serious slander on wolves everywhere. To even call him a "creep" may be a slander on creeps.

This is unusual. For the most part, I have such a deep loathing and disgust for people like Moore that, when I hear a new outrage concering the person, I'm not suprised. Moore, on the other hand, explores levels of filth and revulsion I never dreamt another human being could attain. His behavior consistently suprises and sickens me.

Congrats Michael.

Moore will UNDOUBTEDLY amp up our revulsion by claiming that Ms. Ketcher "misunderstood" his intentions, or is a Bush shill, or ... well, whatever self-serving drivel he thinks will go over with his backpackin' fan base.

Michael Moore would consider "greedy capitalist" to be a slander of his pure motives. He is not a capitalist, he is an entrepreneur who sells swill and garbage while subsisting on society's decay. Unlike a capitalist, he invests nothing.

Chutzpah is about the only word I could use without being banned from this site.

I am horribly sorry for what happened to the victims at Columbine. Yet, if the survivors start seeing the leftist politicians as the greedy capitalists that *they* are, then maybe they'll see the selfish motives behind their gun-grabbing tactics, as well.

Do you think "Michael Moore" will become a perjorative term unto itself? Someday people may say something like, "He's such a Michael Moore, given lying, cheating and sleazy tricks." Or,"that guys just creeps me out. He's such a Michael Moore."
