I heard it too. Really don't those Frenchies at NPR know that they shouldn't be interviewing anyone to the left of Sheri Dew ever. But especially at the Republican convention. I say Andrea Seabrook is lucky the Secret Service didn't send her down to Gitmo.

Sad, wasn't it. I wish I had a transcript because I can't do it justice from memory.

Jesus, General. The secret service are slipping. According to Attorney General Asscrack's Ashcroft's memo, each person caught talking to Moore before his "accident" was supposed to develop an accute case of broken arm.

And God so loved mankind He put Secret Service agents in a tight perimeter around His son.
Michael Moore is Jesus?

Michael Moore is Jesus?
renato
Yes, I thought everybody knew that. Why else would he be crucified by those in power on a daily basis?
Renato, MJS, now, dammit, don't go off-message NOW! Michael Moore isn't "JEEBUS" --- DUMBYA IS!!! Haven't y'all been paying attention????
For Gawd spake unto Dumbya and sayeth verily, "You are my retarded son, but you are my son nonetheless. Go forth and invade, rape, pillage and raid, for you are My Tool."
And if George W. Bush ain't a Tool, I ain't sittin' here.

Is it possible that the Secret Service is protecting Moore? Or, what if say, a stray bullet ricocheted off Moore and hit someone really important? Maybe the Secret Service has concerns here that regular folks can't even begin to comprehend?
A.C. What else does it say in the Bible?

OT: Before coming to the General I made a practice of pushing an erudite case on non-sympathetic Christian and political forums. Some did shut me down completely, but I've found on less restrictive ones that if you persist in being disarmingly funny, confessional, and careful in picking battles, you can get dropped responses, incriminating candor, and (I know it's hard to believe) moments of actual self-reflection out of the many hard-line adversaries you're sure to attract.
I love the General's site and truly need the therapy it provides, but I'm not convinced we're changing many minds here. This morning I re-opened Pandora's box on what has proved to be my most compelling thread on the Iraq invasion to date. It isn't for the faint of heart, but I thought perhaps in the spirit of the "Dark Lord of Celluloid" you might give it a glance or post. I should note that a few years ago I wrangled with Ann Coulter herself on this forum, although she didn't reveal herself at the time of my posts.
Sorry to blogwhore. I'll crawl back in my Harry now.

Righteous letter, General, sir!!
It's only too bad that, for safety's sake of course, that they didn't remove the baby-eating (no, it's true, I read it on the web!) film maker from the floor altogether. Then he could have been conveniently "disappeared."
Maybe next time...

General sir!
Praise Jeebus that you find and report those stories that the librul media chooses to ignore. It is downright wrong of Michael Moore to monopolize the Secret Service's time and resources.
Thanks to you, I have alerted my local communist media to the bravery of these Secret Service agents in placing themselves in physical proximity to Satan's spawn. Though I doubt those scumbag liberals will report on it, I intend to keep on feeding them the stories that only you are brave enough to print. God bless you, sir!

Mentata, why on earth would you discuss such important matter of national security with those obvious French-looking, latte drinking, Volvo driving liberals at the Christian Ministries? That one fellow calls himself "mobstyle". That looks like code to me for "insurgent".
Besides, he tried to claim that there might have been operational ties between Saddam Hussein and Al Qaeda that did not include the 9/11 attacks, when in fact that horrible and insane 9/11 Commission concluded that there were no operational ties between Hussein and Al Qaeda at all (or so I recall).
But everyone knows that Saddam Hussein personally strapped bombs to those planes before he flew them into the World Trade Center.
That mobstyle character is bad news.

I thought it was Uday and Qusay who strapped the bombs to various members of the Iraqi Olympic Team who had failed in their time trials, and forced them to fly the planes into the WTC and the Pentagon? Saddam was busy that day and he delegated the chore.
At least, I'm pretty sure that's what Rush said.

Maybe the Repubs & Secret Service actually do not want Moore being assasinated during the RNC convention by some lunatic. That would steal some headlines. I am certain that Moore has received death threat for his film.
If the incident was really that big of a deal I think MM would have mentioned it in the USA Today Column he wrote.
That said I fully support the General's letter to the SS Director in pursuit of curtailing restrictions on free speech and assembly.

I begged indulgence the first time, and I meant to stop, but reading Moore's column I can't help but notice it has similar very themes to my own news post, written yesterday and released this morning.
Who are the radicals? Who is fiscally conservative? Who represents the mainstream? And who is truly Christian? I'm personally tired of letting cheats and liars marginalize the rest of us, and I notice the polls have changed recently.
Sorry for the interruption. I'll be happy to get back to making fun of them again.

Give the SS a break. They had to clear everybody else out of the area so they could protect Moore. It takes a LOT of agents to cover him. I hear when Rush Limbaugh shows up they plan to empty one entire side of the building.

Wow, Mojo, you made a fat joke about Michael Moore. Now you and Arsenio can get together and make up fat jokes about Roseanne. Woof-woof!
Miss Ekstase, I did not mean to mislead you into thinking that the above quote was from the bible. It's not. It's what "god" told Dumbya in person, on many of their mongoloid-to-deity fireside chats. In other words, "god" believes in Affirmative Action. For morons. But this time, if the placement of said moron can be traced back to this deity, as Dumbya has repeatedly claimed, well, I guess we all know by now... the "Big Guy" really fucked up.
There's Affirmative Action, and then there's flat-out insanity. But, as some rumblings have been leaking out of the RNC, last I heard, "god" is no longer accepting Dumbya's calls. Though "He" did leave one last message on Dumbya's Oval Office answering machine (since Dumbya is so rarely actually THERE, you know, doing WORK).
BEEEEEEEEP! "Um, yeah, George, listen, kiddo, we had a great run, for about three months, some twenty years ago, but listen, this is... aahhhh, this is getting really awkward. You've got to stop telling people that we're still... involved. Not kosher, dude. And I should know... (muffled chuckle) We had a lot of great times in Alabama, I'll grant you that, but, well, it's just not working out, and since we haven't really kept in touch much since then --- except when you want a FAVOR --- oh, nevermind, I try not to be bitter about it. Let's just call it even, no harm, no foul, and you stop using my name to get into restaurants and wage wars, okay? I'm really getting sick of all the calls about that shit --- I didn't okay ANY of this shit, so stop telling people that you're killing them for MY sake. It's just so fucking lame. And take my name off your fucking resume', because I will NOT vouch for you as a reference. Give it up, man. Let it go. It was fun, but oh hell, I already said that --- look, I'm sure this machine's going to cut me off soon, so, you know, have a nice life, and when that's over, well, don't call us, we'll call you. Heh heh heh..." CLICK.

Well writen and well done, Annti. God cusses almost as much as Nixon did.
F-I-L is mighty pissed off about the wiretap. Just so you know.
Mistress Magdalene |

Ms Coulter:
Ms. Magdalene is right. Wiretaps can cause unwanted pain and embarrassment to a person, even one who may sometimes want a little pain or embarrassment. Roving surveillance should be reserved for use on terrorists, drug users, pedophiles, activists, homosexuals, atheists, social workers, immigrants, working women, scientists, minorities, abortionists, children, Mormons, environmentalists, celebrities, teachers, communists, journalists, Jews, intelligence analysts, psychologists, foreigners, lawyers, musicians, balloonists, and other Democrats. Although I know it's not complete, you won't find me or my God on that list I assure you.

Now look here, Colonel Winfrey, you tell Steadman and your god that I didn't do no wiretaps. I don't NEED no stinkin' wiretaps.
The aforementioned transcript was lifted directly from Dumbya's dusty ol' answering machine (it's still ANALOG!!! I think he stole it from the Deke house.), so no illegalities of the FCC nature were involved. The rest of the illegalities, well, that's not really my problem. I wasn't there, nobody saw me, you can't prove a thing.
Many gracious thanks to MJS, Miss Ekstase, and even that persnickety Magdalene, for all the kind words.
