Kerry Campaign: Michael Moore an 'Extremist'
NewsMax ^ | 24 July 2004 | Carl Limbacher

Michael Moore may be the Democratic Party's favorite filmmaker, but the Kerry-Edwards campaign wants nothing to do with him during next week's Democratic Convention in Boston.

Asked about some of the angry Bush-bashing rhetoric coming from Hollywood these days, Kerry campaign spokesman Chad Clanton told Westwood One radio host Ron Insana on Saturday: "I can't speak for every extremist out there. Michael Moore - these people aren't part of the Kerry campaign."

But it turns out Clanton may have spoken too soon. Not only will Moore be descending on Boston during convention week to bask in the adulation of adoring Democrats at three area appearances, the official DNC entertainment list also includes Bush-hating rocker John Mellencamp.

Just two weeks ago, Mellencamp appeared at a Kerry-Edwards fund-raiser at Radio City Music Hall where he bashed the president as "another cheap thug who sacrifices our young." This was the same event where Whoopi Goldberg compared Bush to her genitals.

Though Whoopi won't be entertaining Dem conventioneers, Saturday's Boston Herald reports that "The DNC announced yesterday that John Mellencamp, Willie Nelson, Patti LaBelle, the Black Eyed Peas and Wyclef Jean will sing during the four-night convention."

Mellencamp was a favorite of would-be Veep Edwards on the campaign trail, the paper noted.

They're running from this Moore clown because they must.

...Mellencamp appeared at a Kerry-Edwards fund-raiser at Radio City Music Hall where he bashed the president as "another cheap thug who sacrifices our young."

Oh yeah. Bush is the candidate who wants to "sacrifice our young" through keeping abortion on demand legal through all nine months of pregnancy for any reason and without providing any info on the "young" in question to the would-be mothers.

Looking forward to it. The wider they open their mouths, the more their breath stinks... It's fun to watch, but also sad that so many can be so consumed with hatred.

Aw Willie, say it ain't so.

Too little, too late, too much doublespeak. The same can be said of CAIR's near absence of denouncing Islamic terrorism.

This film was evil before it opened. The RATs hosted it in Washington, D.C. Don't even try to put distance between Kerry and Axis Mikey.

It's like Kerry's comment to "drop" the investigations into whether George W. Bush was AWOL and then only a month later he was again levelling the charge.

The DNC is bottom feeding again.

No brain and a nationally recognized name is the upscale requirements to speak 'for' the DNC.

A huge bank account is the only requirement to speak 'at" the DNC.

The Black Eyed Peas are the maroons who had a hit song comparing the CIA to the KKK.

Willie smoking weed doesn't bother me. If my record collection excluded musicians who never smoked hooch it would be about 95% lighter. What bugs me is when they get politically vocal, regardless of party affiliation.

Just shut the hell up and sing.

Bush sacrifices our young does he? Seems to me the Anti Life group who vote for and are democrats are the ones who do that. They don't give them a chance to even become young people by murdering them in the womb.

The irony of it all. Bush is a "murderer" for punishing those who mean us harm, yet policies supported by Kerry have resulted in 44,000,000 deaths to innocent human beings from my generation.

No wonder they are holding the convention at the FleetCenter - they needed to extra room to accommodate Moore's inflated ego, his swollen head and his double-wide girth.

It all makes sense, now.

MM is THE SPOKESPERSON for the dems, they can not run, they can not hide.

Let the Bush-Bashing begin!!!
