BOSTON (Reuters) - A U.S. war veteran who lost both arms in Iraq has sued Oscar-winning director Michael Moore for $85 million, saying television clips were used without his permission in the anti-war documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11" and gave a false impression that he opposed the war. Sgt. Peter Damon, 33, a supporter of President George W. Bush and the Iraq war, claims Moore misused the footage to portray him "in a false light" and as "disagreeing with the president about the war effort and as disagreeing with the war effort itself." "It was kind of almost like the enemy was...

Dear Friends, As most of you have probably heard, I was arrested before the State of the Union Address tonight. I am speechless with fury at what happened and with grief over what we have lost in our country. There have been lies from the police and distortions by the press. (Shocker) So this is what really happened: This afternoon at the People's State of the Union Address in DC where I was joined by Congresspersons Lynn Woolsey and John Conyers, Ann Wright, Malik Rahim and John Cavanagh. Lynn brought me a ticket to the State of the Union Address....

Michael Moore Statement on Canadian Election Friday, January 20th, 2006 Michael Moore is currently in production on his next movie. As an avid lover of all things Canadian, he has issued the following statement regarding Canada's upcoming election on Monday: Oh, Canada -- you're not really going to elect a Conservative majority on Monday, are you? That's a joke, right? I know you have a great sense of humor, and certainly a well-developed sense of irony, but this is no longer funny. Maybe it's a new form of Canadian irony -- reverse irony! OK, now I get it.

First, Michael Moore threw his creative weight and his celluloid into defeating President Bush's re-election. Then he made a big push for an Oscar nomination. He lost on both counts. Why didn't the former golden boy of Hollywood who championed the anti-war, anti-Bush, anti-America movement with his dishonest propaganda piece "Fahrenheit 9/11" garner an Oscar nod? Is the Hollywood crowd wising up to the limited appeal of extremism, or has Moore worn out his welcome? With characteristic zeal, Moore campaigned vigorously for a best picture nomination. "He was at every Oscar party and screening," said Moore's former manager Douglas Urbanski,...

The Los Angeles Times has details on Michael Moore's latest piece of propaganda theater--a hit on the health care/pharmaceutical industry titled "Sicko:" Rumors are already flying within the industry about Moore's moviemaking tactics.

Q: Do you give any credence to these Internet conspiracy theories about the voting machines in Ohio?A: Nah. And I don't have a double standard here. I've stressed since 2000 that Gore won the popular vote. Now, even if Kerry won Ohio, clearly more people across the country wanted Bush than Kerry. So there you go. Deal with it.

Dear Michael, Will the real Michael Moore ever re-emerge and shut the door on the theatre of the absurd? Weeks of standing before large college audiences mixing a portion of book and movie promotions with a message that was more laughable than producing laughter.Now that you no longer have to pose as a 'least worster' with no more tatical excuses, what is your post election confession? So far your website has dodged this question, unless that is you have no reflections on the merit of abandoning your principals and your authentically progressive friends for candidates--US Sens. John Kerry & John...

Democrats have been asking themselves whether Michael Moore’s high profile during the campaign might not have done them more harm than good. Al From (search), head of Bill Clinton’s Democratic Leadership Council told a gathering at the National Press Club: "This party has to be the party of Harry Truman and John Kennedy, not the party of Michael Moore. Michael Moore does not represent the Kennedy or Truman tradition in the Democratic Party of patriotism and security.” The New Republic's Peter Beinart (search) had a more stinging rebuke: "The problem with Michael Moore is, he doesn't believe there is a...

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (Reuters) - "Fahrenheit 9/11" director Michael Moore on Monday rejected the idea that Hollywood had hurt John Kerry (news - web sites)'s chances of winning the White House, insisting that he and other entertainers helped spare Democrats an even bigger defeat. "For the last month, we've had to listen to a lot of conservative pundits talk about how Democrats need to run away from Hollywood," Moore said. "It's actually the opposite. Democrats need to embrace Hollywood because this is where they need to come to learn how to tell a story." In the final analysis, Moore said,...
