Katie Couric Trashes Michael Moore! Would Rather Arrange Socks than go out with him!
The Today Show

Posted on 09/01/2004 6:06:30 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

In perhaps the most stunning morning news show interview I've ever seen, Katie Couric just got through thoroughly trashing Michael Moore.

She began by criticizing the scenes in Fahrenheit 911 depicting a pre-war Iraq of children peacefully playing and weddings taking place. "Wasn't that misleading?" Moore claimed he only used the footage to show the kinds of people killed by US bombing, not to suggest Saddam's Iraq was a "utopia."

Next, Katie said that "many people say the Dems don't want you to be the face of the party."

"Who said that?" demanded Moore. "Well, Tim Russert for one," answered Katie.

She added: "let's face it, many people think you're a jerk."

An obviously hurt Moore responded: "but you don't think I'm a jerk, do you Katie?"

Katie refused to come to his aid: "well, my views aren't important, it's the views of the Dem party."

"But come on, Katie, you know me."

"I really don't know you very well."

"But, come one, from talking after the shows, etc. You don't think I'm a jerk, do you?"

"I really don't know you well enough to say that."

Finally, in a scene so amazing I could hardly believe my eyes and ears, Moore virtually asked Katie out on a date, and was shot down with a classic co-ed line.

Katie asked Moore if he'd be going back to the convention and Moore said he would, probably tonight and tomorrow. Then Moore added: "will you come with me, Katie?"

A shocked Katie replied: "No," then, incredibly, added: "I HAVE TO RE-ARRANGE MY SOCK DRAWER."

Yes, she actually said it. Katie made it clear that she loathes Moore and fears that as the prominent face of the party, he is dragging down her boy Kerry.

An absolutely stunning TV moment. Catch a replay if you can.

WAITER: "Sir... if you'll forgive my saying so: she wasn't worthy of you, sir. Not really."

MOORE: "Pie."

WAITER: "The pain will fade, sir. Just give it time..."

MOORE (louder): "Pie! Mikey wants more PIE! PiePiePiePiePIE!"

Someone on the thread said it beautifully: The Dems can have Moore as the face of their party. We'll take Arnold.

And put a scoop of ice cream on that pie. Make it a double!

Just in from boarding up the house in preparation for a possible strike from Frances. Not taking chances with a Storm that big that's consistently tracking further and furth South. Thanks for the HUGE SMILE from this report.

Section9 and Recovering_Democrat, I imagine y'all are probably up to the same thing as I am today. Hope this gives you a lift.

OK, I need to know -- what IS the 'L-sign'???? That passed me by.

See below:

It's something that eight year olds (and pampered overfed manchildren) do to call someone a "loser."

If he was near me I'd be uncomfortable too.
The man is pure slime.
Katie may be coming around in her old age.

LOL - although it does bring to mind disturbing images of gas escaping from Moore's distended body.

Exactly. Kerry 'used' Mccain's disapproval of SBVT ad #1 in his ad which established McCain's credibility with the dems. McCain turns around and uses the same language on Moore: Kiss of death.

Never thought I'd say it ... McCain has done this country a great service.

>I'll bet he was getting flashbacks to his high school days when he was hoping to score a date from someone, anyone.

Date, nothing. My bet would be he was having flashbacks about trying to even find a place to sit in the cafeteria, and everyone telling him to beat it.

OK-it's official- I'm living in Bizarro world. Couric trashes Moore and Fox tacks hard to the left.

My head is spinning.
