Alan Edelstein, a producer of Moore's television show The Awful Truth, was suddenly downsized out of a job, just like those General Motors workers in Flint. So, just like Moore, he decided to stalk the boss for a turning-the-tables documentary on why the television star had put him out on the street.

Moore was not amused. He complained to the NYPD, got Edelstein thrown in jail for a day, and had a restraining order slapped on him. Here's how it read: "The defendant knowingly entered and remained unlawfully in a building with intent to harass, annoy and harm ... a course of conduct which alarmed and seriously annoyed another person."

Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the portliest hypocrite of all?

A most excellent read!

I do however, take exception to this:

"Moore's Oscar showboating was rewarded later in the week when he came in at Number Three on The New York Press's list of the 50 Most Loathsome New Yorkers.

To his detractors, it is hard to believe that there are two New Yorkers more loathsome than Michael Moore. "

I mean, as an ex-NYer turned midwesterner, the two NY senators, Hillary! and Chuckie spring immediately to mind...

And then there is always Rangel...

But in America, I'm happy to report, guns are booming: sales are up, and no political aspirant in a competitive election wants to say a word in favour of gun control.

If Mark Steyn says it, I believe it! Gun control means hitting what you aim at; when will some underprivileged youth sight in on Michael Moore?

I can't believe any woman allowed him to reproduce with her.

Yuck.

In the US, Moore is an annoying troll. Overseas, he's a legend.

The fact that he appeases the anti-Americanism is one thing.

The fact that he confirms for the (secretly envious) elitists the (mythical) underbelly ills that liberalism is based on is another.

What truly pisses me off, is when Euroweenies begin questioning me about what's wrong with America based on seeing his (fictitious) "documentary."
