• At least one Northern Virginia moviegoer walked out in a huff after watching just a half-hour of "Fahrenheit," and she wants our readers to know about it. Loyal Republican Lenora Tomalin, 81, called us to report that she left her relatives in their seats at the Regal theater in Sterling and headed for the lobby during the scene when Moore, in a voiceover, suggests thoughts President Bush might have had in a Florida classroom the morning of Sept. 11. "I was enraged . . . I thought it was very sophomoric," she says. "There was laughter and I would just cringe." Tomalin, who happens to be the mother of activist/actress Susan Sarandon, got a refund and promptly gave it to a charity supported by Regal. To cool down, she paced for a while, then waited patiently on a chair provided by the manager.

In this case, the apple fell about a half mile from the tree!

good for her

Didn't Tim Robbins threaten to kill anyone who reported on his mother in law?

[Spacemonkey1023]

And now we know why

[sevry]

I walked out at the letter from the soldier who was about to be killed in the helicopter accident, saying how much he hated Bush. I'd sat through way too much of Moore's garbage by that point, anyway; perhaps too much so to ask for a refund.

God reward her.

Susie is liberal because her mother isn't. I have a friend like that. Her parents are conservative and she is still being contrary at her age.

The classy way of saying,"I fart in your general direction."

The movie convinced one of Im'ass' side kicks to vote for kerry as soon as yesterday. Do these people not think with an open mind? How do they function in an ever changing world?

And the liberals say they are not represented on radio. What the hell is Imus? And don't tell me an independent

[Hatteras]

And does it appear that the Democrats are trying to distance themselves from their loyal supporters out in Hollywood? C'mon Tom Daschle, you really did give ol' Micahel Moore a hug, didn't you?.....

Tom must be up for reelection this year.

Nice translation....

Bye, Troll. Before you go, though, the word is naive.

Apt description for Ol' Marble Mouth. Have given up on him and his show.

[OXENinFLA]

Crawl back into your hole TROLL!!!

Cale ..here's the truth about the Kennedy Assasination... A man named Lee Harvey Oswald took a gun and killed him. Case Closed. Now go back to DU and tell all your kooky friends that yes, one lone man can change the course of history.
