It’s a perfect fit. Even there, it’s not quite the most honest film.

The Iranian Propaganda Ministry is probably interested in having a long chat with him to learn some new secrets of mind control through manipulated and dishonest imagery.

Moore is probably just interested in going because it represents a few free meals and an opportunity to poke America in the eye once again.

I would be so happy if an 'unfortunate accident' were to befall him there.

"sigh"

Don't our CIA Friends have some bored hitmen lounging about over there, just waiting for a defined target and the go-ahead signal?

If not, why not?

More evidence — as if any were needed — that that pig is firmly in the “Death to America” camp.

Despite all her claims to the purity of her art, Leni Riefenstahl was a whore too.

Let’s hope they’re clever enough to take him hostage when he’s there!

NYT Headline:

CALAMITY! Brilliant Filmmaker, Poet, Legendary Artist and Sage For All Eternity Michael Moore has apparently been taken hostage by our Dear Iranian Friends whom we love so very much.  Obviously there has been some terrible mistake and our ace reporters are diligently working on finding out what REALLY happened.  Preliminary suspicions indicate that George W. Bush and Dick Cheney are both personally responsible. Updates soon!

White House Press Release:

It has come to our attention that Iran has extended a kind hand of friendship to us by hosting one of our citizens in their fine country.  We applaud this gracious gesture from the Iranians and hope that they will feel free to keep Mr.  Moore for as long as they wish.

When America’s enemies love and adore you, I’d say you have a problem.

It is hard to believe she can walk and chew gum at the same time.

Ha! Ha! Surely neither walking nor chewing gum is the reason why your brother is wasting time with this moonbat female. And if he ends up sitting through this crap then I can only surmise she must be a hottie who's putting out.

I haven't seen a reply from The Bulbous One yet, but my guess is that he will clear ANYTHING from his schedule in order to make this happen.  It's far too great of an opportunity to poke America in the eye for him to miss.

For normal, sane people I would agree entirely.  For a proud Socialist and America-hater like Moore, however, I would suggest that it provides cachet for his image and insures free meals and five-star hotel rooms in any Socialist, America-hating city that he might be in, both in and outside of the USA.

And HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY to all Moderators, who make Free Republic run so smoothly! It would be a mess without you!

Cheers!

An invitation from Iran. Oh, brother. Sort of says it all, don’t it? I wonder if Cuba and Venezuela have film fests? He’s going to have a full dance card if this keeps up.

Why doesn’t the CIA reveal that Moore is on the payroll and an active agent.

Then explain it’s the classic “Syrian Jew Double-bluff”*

Poof no Michael Moore.

Libs are mad Iran (But they Must Blame Bush)

More confusion against a very gullible population.
