The family of U.S. Air Force Maj. Gregory Stone was shocked to learn that video footage of the major's Arlington National Cemetery burial was included by Michael Moore in his movie "Fahrenheit 9/11." Stone was killed in March 2003 by a grenade that officials said was thrown into his tent by Sgt. Hasan K. Akbar, who is on trial for murder.
It's been a big shock, and we are not very happy about it, to say the least," Kandi Gallagher, Stone's aunt and family spokeswoman, tells Washington Times reporter Audrey Hudson. We are furious that Greg was in that casket and cannot defend himself, and my sister, Greg's mother, is just beside herself," Gallagher said. "She is furious. She called him a 'maggot that eats off the dead.'" The movie, described by critics as political propaganda during an election year, shows video footage of the funeral and Stone's fiancee, Tammie Eslinger, kissing her hand and touching it to his coffin. The family does not know how Moore obtained the video, and Gallagher said they did not give permission and are considering legal recourse. She described her nephew as a "totally conservative Republican" and said he would have found the film to be "putrid." "I'm sure he would have some choice words for Michael Moore," she said. "Michael Moore would have a hard time asking our family for a glass of water if he were thirsty."
Ditto!!!!!
LOL!! Good pic! Michael Moore looks like he smells, doesn't wear any underwear (and if he did, they would have holes and brown corn stains in them). "Hey! Anyone seen last week's sandwich??" Check your fat rolls, MOORE-ON!!! Enjoy your blood money, you pig!

Believe me, I can't sit through this movie. I do need to know a few things about the movie. I need to know about what the families are called in this movie. Do they refer to the parents that lost children or spouses as Gold Star Mothers and Gold Star Wives. Do they refer to parents who have not lost loved ones as Blue Star Mothers? These are not just generic terms but are actually names of organizations.
Having kids in harms way and trying to sit through this piece of trash is more than most families can do.
...with a young slave to deliver it - personally:
Fahrenheit 911 is the beginning of the end of Maggot Moore. He will have to move to France, mark my words.
At 380 lbs, a snail could catch up to Moore.
I hope they do pursue legal recourse against Michael Maggot Moregut as well as the photographer who sold him the video.
And then there's the Grand Master Ray Bradbury, who's still mad and insistent that his title not be ripped off. And that Blubba the Moore return his phone calls.
Bump
Go get 'em, Ma'am, and I hope you help him redistribute some of his ill-gotten wealth.
Finally! someone that sees the clown for what he is and tells it like it is!
My Congresswoman did the same thing last week. A viewing and discussion about it's patriotism and facts after the show. Did I mention that she really does think it's a documentary?
Perhaps Edwards should take the case.
"they did not give permission and are considering legal recourse."
Good! And make a lot of noise doing it. If she sues (and I hope she does), I hope she gets all of the 20 million the movie made -- or whatever amount it was.
I hope they can sue the distributer too.
LOL, I doubt he could get away with telling the Jury that he is speaking from Maj. Gregory Stone's Coffin when presenting the case to them like he did in the past :-)
Wow, that little guy has great aim! Of course he's too young to drink, so his aim might diminish in time. ;-)
