No, Moore does the cause much more good by speaking out. He is a useful idiot. We need to clone him.

HOLLYWOOD IS FOR IRAQ - AND ANTI AMERICAN
"Bush is a racist"--Danny Glover
"I think America has no experience with terrorism or even with war. In Europe, we know a little bit more about these things." --Peter Gabriel
"As dumb as this administration is, they don't look ahead. They don't know where any countries are...They don't really know much about anything."
"Now you have people [in Washington] who have no interest in the country at all. They're interested in their companies, their corporations grabbing Caspian oil."-- Gore Vidal
In my country the atmosphere is poisoned. Unbreathable for those of us who are not on the right. So thank you for inviting me to this festival and allowing me to leave there for a few days. -- Jessica Lange
"So when I see the American flag, I go, 'Oh my God, you're insulting me.'"
"'We're here, we're queer!' -- that's what makes my heart swell. Not the flag, but a gay naked man or woman burning the flag. I get choked up with pride." -- Janeanne Garofalo
"I believe he thinks this [war against Iraq] is a war that can be won, but there is no such thing anymore...We can't beat anyone anymore" -- George Clooney
"[Bush is a] sad figure: not too well educated, who doesn't get out of America much. He's leading the country towards fascism... he wouldn't understand the word fascism anyway." --Larry Hagman
"It is inappropriate for the [Bush] administration to trump up a case in which we are ballyhooed into war."
But, a few years earlier:
"...the bottom line is that I think its appropriate for the international community in situations like this to intervene [in Kosovo]. I am in favor of an intervention. On some level you have to say that at least somebody [Clinton] is doing something." -- Mike Farrell

I voted for Saddam and all I got was this bloody T-Shirt!
Ask not what you can do for your country - ask what you can do for Iraq!
Same face - different war.

Every time I see Michael Moore, I'm reminded of the Monty Python sketch "Face the Press," where Eric Idle interviews "a small patch of brown liquid, perhaps creosote or some extract used in industrial varnishing."

I'm still looking for suggestions on how to properly destroy my two foolishly-purchased Michael Moore books.

I finally saw a clip of Moore's speech (I refused to watch the show Sunday night). It appeared to me that the "Hollywood" audience didn't boo at all. They sat there with smug smiles and excited looks upon their faces. I didn't see one person I could recognize as doing anything other than smile. The boo's were probably coming from the non-celebrity audience, the behind the movie scenes crews. I think Hollywood is getting a pass because they are being identified as against Moore's speech.
BTW, I am really peeved that the media has identified the reason for the lowest ratings in Oscar history is because of the war. I firmly believe many people are just sick of Hollywood and refused to watch.
Tax Movies for the war effort!

Tear off covers. Throw pages in washer. Air dry. Use as toilet paper (now they're nice and soft).

While the truth is that Hollywood booed when he started his rant on the war it was reported that in a pre-Oscar party this same crowd wildly cheered similar remarks.
What a bunch of hypocrites...and cowards. They aren't willing to take the heat for what they believe in public. Somehow it shouldn't surprise anyone that these people are against the war. They don't have the courage of their convictions to say it in front of all of America.
Someone forgot to tell Moore not to breathe a word of his little rant in front of the cameras. Poor boob, he looked rather bewildered when he got booed by the same group that that just hours before cheered him.
Moore is a useful idiot like previously mentioned. He would be the perfect poster boy for the Hollyweird Left.
They're stuck with him now.

To: Torie
Moore probably did more for Bush on Oscar night than he could have imagined in his wildest dreams. Although drowned out by war news, I would equate this with the great "Minnesota Funeral and Rally party" for Wellstone. And this time the right audience saw it - the regular joe who watches sitcoms and the Oscars and Grammys instead of news TV like all us Conservative Fox News junkies.
I usually don't take pot shots at peoples' appearances, but a fat, unshaven man shrilly screaming nasty things about the president and getting heavily booed is very prejudicial. The Antiwar people need to have a rule - no one gets to say anything or go to protests unless they wash and learn to take that shrill complaining bitter tone out of their voices.
Of course, then there would probably BE no protests.

Thank you. I'd wanted to hear that.
Unfortunately, you do hear some clapping, but a lot of spirited booing.
Golly, the pathetic blob had to raise his voice awfully loud just to be heard over "five loud people," didn't he?

I think the boos were coming from the bleachers and the non-movie star people. As for the looks on the faces of the Hollyweirdos, they did seem to mostly delight in it. I noticed Harrison Ford with a big smile on his very old and wrinkly face while Calista didn't seem to react. Chad Lowe(brother of Rob Lowe and married to Oscar winner Hillary Swank) did have a look of 'this is a bit crazy', very funny face on him that seemed to think it went far. He was sitting behind someone I can't remember, but I remember seeing his face and he seemed to think it too much by the look on his face. Michael Moore is really whacked out.

"I'm still looking for suggestions on how to properly destroy my two foolishly-purchased Michael Moore books."I would suggest replacing the toilet paper in your commode with the books. That way, you can really enjoy getting rid of them, one page/wipe at a time!

I don't believe that anyone in the hollyweird set has any convictions whatsoever, as far as outside their own personal glorification through publicity.
Just like a large section of the nation, they never use the brain God gave them to understand or research the truth of what our government was/is doing. They take the 'popular' path, and make speeches because they have been told by their agent or publicist that there is a 'target of opportunity'. That they should contact the news media and tell them ....... or make a speech during the OSCARS, etc.
I don't believe any one of them care about anything that doesn't benefit them in some way.
The only exception I give is to people like Arnold Swarzshennager(sp?) , Bono (lead singer of U2). These people are intelligent and besides having been around the world, they actually know that more exists than just 'their star career'. They get involved, instead of playing the role of being involved (example: PETA)
