I hope everyone had a chance to hear the soldier from Oklahoma who called Rush yesterday. He just returned from a year in Iraq. He and his men put 200 to Abu Ghraib prison. They were the worst of the worst, he said, including a man who had brutally raped children whom he - the Oklahoman - personally arrested, after seeing the injuries inflicted on the victims.

The soldier also said that things in Iraq are not nearly as bad as depicted, and that coalition troops are hamstrung by the "reporters on every corner," watching their every move. He said we could win the war within weeks if the media weren't dogging them at every turn. I hope Rush replays the call today.

"MICHAEL Moore Is a Big Fat Stupid White Man." That's the title of an upcoming tome from ReganBooks by Jason Clarke and David T. Hardy, the creators of two Web sites devoted to exposing the filmmaker's hypocrisy, moorelies.com and mooreexposed.com. "Moore shows the greatest disdain for that which he actually is . . . a very rich, pasty white American male," the authors say.

Watching Moore spinning statistics in "Bowling for Columbine" and "Dude, Where's My Country?" spurred the authors to ask, "Dude, where's your integrity." The book, due in July, will expose his use of camera tricks, manipulated facts and spliced speeches. "Post-war filmmakers gave us the documentary, Rob Reiner gave us the mockumentary and Moore initiated a third genre, the crockumentary." (PageSix)

I did, he was great! Although the part about the reporters was disheartening. *sigh*
