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, we all know You have a great sense of humor and impeccable timing. To send a hurricane on the third anniversary of the Katrina disaster AND right at the beginning of the Republican Convention was, at first blush, a stroke of divine irony. I don't blame You, I know You're angry that the Republicans tried to blame YOU for Katrina by calling it an "Act of God" -- when the truth was that the hurricane itself caused few casualties in New Orleans. Over a thousand people died because of the mistakes and neglect caused by humans, not You.
Some of us tried to help after Katrina hit, while Bush ate cake with McCain and twiddled his thumbs. I closed my office in New York and sent my entire staff down to New Orleans to help. I asked people on my website to contribute to the relief effort I organized -- and I ended up sending over two million dollars in donations, food, water, and supplies (collected from thousands of fans) to New Orleans while Bush's FEMA ice trucks were still driving around Maine three weeks later.
But this past Thursday night, the Washington Post reported that the Republicans had begun making plans to possibly postpone the convention. The AP had reported that there were no shelters set up in New Orleans for this storm, and that the levee repairs have not been adequate. In other words, as the great Ronald Reagan would say, "There you go again!"
So the last thing John McCain and the Republicans needed was to have a split-screen on TVs across America: one side with Bush and McCain partying in St. Paul, and on the other side of the screen, live footage of their Republican administration screwing up once again while New Orleans drowns. So, yes, You have scared the Jesus, Mary and Joseph out of them, and more than a few million of your followers tip their hats to You.
But now it appears that You haven't been having just a little fun with Bush & Co. It appears that Hurricane Gustav is truly heading to New Orleans and the Gulf coast. We hear You, O Lord, loud and clear, just as we did when Rev. Falwell said You made 9/11 happen because of all those gays and abortions. We beseech You, O Merciful One, not to punish us again as Pat Robertson said You did by giving us Katrina because of America's "wholesale slaughter of unborn children." His sentiments were echoed by other Republicans in 2005.
So this is my plea to you: Don't do this to Louisiana again. The Republicans got your message. They are scrambling and doing the best they can to get planes, trains and buses to New Orleans so that everyone can get out. They haven't sent the entire Louisiana National Guard to Iraq this time -- they are already patrolling the city streets. And, in a nod to I don't know what, Bush's head of FEMA has named a man to help manage the federal government's response. His name is W. Michael Moore. I kid you not, heavenly Father. They have sent a man with both my name AND W's to help save the Gulf Coast.
So please God, let the storm die out at sea. It's done enough damage already. If you do this one favor for me, I promise not to invoke your name again. I'll leave that to the followers of Dr. Dobson and to those gathering this week in St. Paul.
Your faithful servant and former seminarian,
Michael Moore

Please click here for a list of things you can do to help our brothers and sisters on the Gulf Coast. And, if you do live along the Gulf Coast, please take all necessary safety precautions immediately.
What a tub of goo.

Don’t sweat it.......just another shovel of coal on MM’s hellfire.
God doesn’t have time to listen to the prayers of the anti-Christ. That POS should be praying to his real god, Satan.
What a despicable sack of sh**.
Nothing-squeals-like-a-mortally-stuck-pig alert.
If Michael would like to speak with God, I volunteer to help him arrange the meeting.
Stupid freaking man!! What was God trying to say when he allowed Russia to attack Georgia while the Dems partied it up? Of course those things aren’t related but the question is similar to the slime Moore puts out.
Then he falsely tries to appear to be interceding. Doesn’t he have a slimy movie to make regarding Gov. Palin’s baby (sarc)?
that is, “I can’t make....”
Idiot pig.
I wouldn’t worry about this. If God listened to Michael Moore, Moore wouldn’t look the way he does.
Au contraire. He heard. And He will reply in His time. Those who don't worship God should not be using His name.
Wow they know no bounds. what about last year and year b4 no comments on lack of hurricanes. I still am surprised by how far the wacko’s will go.
And the left worship this guy....
He is a fat piece of garbage it’s because of people with his Liar mentality we even have these problems of racial bias being blamed/called when it is the Rat party that created this mess to begin with.
He will meet The Most High God in due time. We all will.
Survey says ..
You know God didn’t destroy Soddom before it happened, he did it because he didn’t like what had happened there. Perhaps Michael should be thinking about the whole Obama “I am the one”, just as easy to say that God was responding to that whole fiasco....I mean if they can lay claim to knowing what God is thinking and doing...
