Patriot-plus? Is that like super-size?

"Michael seized the moment and used his forum to do what we cherish most in this country - dissent," Dolgin said.

Most Americans cherish other things, dissent for the sake of it never built a bridge, or washed a car.

Pretend people, pretending to be intelegent. I suggest some time at a real job might be good for their souls.

Dolgin said she had trouble hearing Moore's comments because of the commotion in the auditorium. "There was an explosion of booing. It sounded like we were at a football game and somebody didn't like the referee call."

Oh, so sorry you couldn't hear Moore's tirade. It only sounded like a communist political rally and fat lunatic nobody who didn't like the outcome of a presidential election.

They said next day that they applaud Moore as a "patriot-plus" who - while others said nothing or flashed a tentative peace sign - gave the Academy Awards show its most memorable moment.

I agree that he gave Oscar one of it's most memorable moments. He did for the Oscars what Chirac did for the UN by helping to put a dying entity out of it's misery. Next year's show might even have trouble finding sponsers.

San Francisco Bay Area filmmakers Gail Dolgin and Vicente Franco, who were nominated in the documentary feature category for Daughter From Danang, accepted Moore's invitation to "stand in solidarity" with him onstage during the award presentation. They said next day that they applaud Moore as a "patriot-plus"

They never said what they thought of their work losing to a piece of fiction. Maybe they also fabricated their documentary or had a low opinion of it.

Michael Moore:

The Big Fat Idiot.

Leave it to Hollywood, where people pretend to be other people, pretend to sincere, and pretend to understand geo-political issues--to lecture the rest of us about "fiction."

In a 1998 Weekly Standard article, one of Moore's high school teachers reported that MM proposed cancelling homecoming his senior year. While he proposed donating the saved money to UNICEF, the teacher says it was pretty obvious that the real reason was because he was a big blob that couldn't get a date in a million years.

I came up with a cartoon idea, unfortunately I draw about as well as he diets. A big fat high-school version of Moore turning a camera and microphone on a popular couple that are "parked" somewhere. >:)

According to a column in the Wall Street Journal this week, the booing came from the cheap seats, up in the balconies. The glitterati, for the most part, sat on their hands.

"Michael seized the moment and used his forum to do what we cherish most in this country - dissent," Dolgin said. "He broke the rules and got our attention. Better that than some guy doing push-ups or riding a horse onstage.

Do people really cherish dissenting in this country? This, to me, is such an absurd statement. Does this person really believe that thousands of people risked their lives, the lives of their families, to dare the unknown so that they could come here and dissent? Where does this thought process come from? Is this as alien to all of you as it is to me?

When I saw Jack Palance doing one-arm push-ups some years back, I was highly impressed. At that time, I was in very good shape but could barely do pushups. Always had trouble with them. To see some 60+ year old doing one-arm push-ups was amazing.

Back to Moore. Besides his anti-American and anti-social viewpoint, the other thing I really cannot stand about him is his facial hair. Either grow a beard or shave.

"I don't think the Oscars are a forum for political posturing," Robertson said the day after the show.

Dude, what planet have you been living on?

'Dolgin said she had trouble hearing Moore's comments because of the commotion in the auditorium. "There was an explosion of booing. It sounded like we were at a football game and somebody didn't like the referee call."'

I guess this eyewitness' account pretty well blows out of the water Mr. Moore-on's delusional (or arrogant) backstage claim that he was only booed by five loud people.
