ABC ^ | March 23, 2003

[ewing]

In tribute to the Armed Forces today the participants will be mostly dressed in black and for the men business attire is encouraged.

Celebratory music has also been cancelled as well

CNN just reported the battlefield was strewn with bodies:

Those poor dumb bastards!

"They're dead, Jim."

[HennepinPrisoner]

The world has gone insane!

In a world where the best rapper is white, the best golfer is black, France is preaching to the US about arrogance, and Germany doesn't want to fight a war-----times have changed!

Above came from a letter in Sydney Morning Herald

i loved the look of shock and horror when she [Babs] had to announce that eminem won the oscar.

ROTFLMAO!

[MrFred]

The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences has now lost all credibility with that last award. -Regards, T.

then maybe they should be renamed the U.N. awards.

Everyone go to a bookstore and take ANY Michael Moore book to the checkout

Better yet....make up some freerepublic.com cards on the computer, and insert one into the center of each copy you find on the shelf.

[Katya]

He gets booed, but only by the folks in the back rows. The famous ones in the front, just sit there and smile....all knowingly.

[doug from upland]

It's about me me me me me me. Most acted fairly classy tonight. The disgusting slob came in and crapped in the living room.

Someone who was there was actually quoted on KFI saying people didn't boo, he heard everyone cheering. Parallel universe.

[Lil'freeper]

Ooooh! An honorary award for Peter the Toole!

And using the wonderful music from Branaugh's Henry V....

It was PRICELESS!!!!!!!!!!

[Wavyhill]

That is a good idea. But make sure they know why you're walking away. "You know, I decided against it. I don't like funding traitors." Alternative solution: put all copies on hold and don't pay when your time's up. Then let another Freeper in your area do the same.

[T Lady]

LOL!!!!

-Regards, T.

[Doomonyou]

Thank goodness that a-hole Ed Harris didn't win.

Yup. Another Hollywierd idiot comes out of the woodwork.

[KneelBeforeZod]

for whoever wants to send a dummy a message:

"I think it's hilarious watching the Right-Wing reactionaries get their panties in a bunch over whatever Michael Moore says. He expresses his own political opinions!
Come on loyal Freepers, begin the ad homenien attacks."

A good chunk of that audience is a group of people called seat fillers which are people who go and sit in vacated seats to make it appear the house is full. Maybe the seat fillers were the booers. :)

[DoctorMichael]

Peter O'Toole..............the actor with a double-phallic name.

[HairOfTheDog]

Someone who was there was actually quoted on KFI saying people didn't boo, he heard everyone cheering. Parallel universe.

It often is two parallel universes, and I sometimes I think I am the only one who can what is really true. running between them!

Five people cheered, certainly, perhaps the caller was one of them!

[HennepinPrisoner]

Damn...he just seems to get fatter and fatter with every public appearance.

[Lil'freeper]

LOL- that's a keeper.

[TheSpottedOwl]

Sarandon and hubby look po'ed!

Even worse, Susan Sarandon looks fat ;-D

[wallcrawlr]

Ha ha ha...Gee thanks, I will never be able to look at his name in an innocent way again.
