18. Am I a DU veteran yet?!
I feel like I've finally shifted from newbie status, seeing the word "moran" and actually knowing the origins of the term/spelling on this board!

24. 'Tis a freeper joke - and the way they spell moron.
Someone will post a photo of a freeper in a few minutes with a freeper holding up a sign during the the anti-war marches. You'll get the picture real fast.

in their signature. Not a flattering picture I might add.

12. If Moore is a War Profiteer
What must that make Cheney?

Oh, and if you are wondering who these people are:


Back row from left to right: Should be in Iraq, Should be in Iraq, Should be in Iraq, Should be in Iraq, Should be in Iraq, Should be in Iraq, Should be in Iraq, Should be in Iraq, Should be in Iraq, Poor Attempt at an effigy.

you get the point.

This is a nice collectoin of wannabe toughguy pussies who can't even put their money where their mouth is, and the future Xanaxed housewives who love them.

28. exactly
I don't want to hear a word from the 18 to 34 year olds, unless they are home on leave. If they are for this shit they should have sand in their boots or shut the hell up.

Moore as a war profiteer, typical republican bait and switch, they falsely accuse the left of doing exactly what they are doing. They do it so when someone points out the obvious they can yell sour grapes - like that deflects the truth. As long as it works with many of the idiots that call themselves Americans they will continue to use it.

14. Makes you wonder..................
how many of these rabid Moore haters/Bush lovers will still feel this way next year when they're drafted into the armed forces to support Bush's agenda of never ending war? Another example of knee jerk activists too lazy to research the issues and their affect upon themselves in the coming years.
Right now they're all Gung-Ho Bushbots but when they're expected to leave College in their Sophomore year to go kill brown skinned people the world over so BUsh can get his war hardon, I wonder if their tunes will change?

16. "Snoore"
Are they protesting Moore's right to free speech? His leftist politics? The fact that he somehow has the audacity to mix both together in a way that displeases those of duller intellect?

When Limbaugh beaches himself behind a microphone and spouts conflagratory, self-cancelling, right-wing inanities, he's doing a service to America, but when Moore decides to make a movie from a left-leaning purview, bias or no bias, he's worthy of being deemed a traitor?

This man is only guilty of asking honest questions about the most devastating terrorist attack on American soil in history, while Bush is guilty of persistent attempts to block even the slightest investigation into what happened.

I hate to say it, but, as bad as the right-wing was 10 years ago, I think it has finally reached critical mass.

17. I went to the visit at UM-Dearborn
and the turnout of B/C supporters was pathetic.

There couldn't have been more than 5-10 people there. What a bunch of idiots. Oh, and BTW, on a purely superficial side the people in the Moore audience were more attractive as well.

19. Where was this?
They look like typical 'puke protesters. MM was in Syracuse, NY last Wed. We had 10,000 in the Carrier Dome to listen to him (the demand for tickets was so great they moved the venue and had to stop selling tickets at 10K). The local Clear Channel station said "supporters and protesters turned out last night..." The great thing was there were 10,000 of us and 15-20 of them :7

Boy, they are a pitiful looking bunch, aren't they? ::snicker::

26. Moore was one of Poppy's "words of hate"
"
In New Hampshire, Bush made only joking references to CBS and filmmaker Michael Moore, whose film "Fahrenheit 9/11" skewers the president's Iraq war policy.


"I bring you greetings," Bush told the crowd. "My first greetings are from Dan Rather," he said, drawing light cheers and scattered boos at the mention of the CBS News anchor's name.


He tried again — "I bring you greetings from Michael Moore," inciting even more boos. "


The third greeting, from Barbara Bush, prompted an eruption of applause.

27. "Moore is a socialist. He hates America."
That was the quote from a freeper interviewed at the Moore rally on NPR yesterday. Is this part of the "Slacker" tour in Elk Rapids MI? I also heard a Bush supporter yell: "Why don't you move to France!" Huh? WTF kind of logic is that? If you don't like it here, move? How about working to change things, asshole!?

30. You can almost hear the "Hee Haw" Theme.
"Bush Must Stay"

Uh, yeah, Mrs. Wizard. Hope you like perpetual wars, a return to a robber-baron plutocracy and a pissed-off China. Because that's exactly what you're gonna get if * and the rest of his felon Junta stays.

"Moore is a Traitor"

So telling the truth is being a traitor?

Love how not a SINGLE one of these conlets can tell you an actual full-blown LIE residing in F911.

33. Anybody see Spurlock or his family in there?
"He ripped my 'Michael Moore can suck my d*ck' sign!" screamed Spurlock's 5-year old daughter, as union-member/brother Steve Spurlock playfully waved shreds of the sign in her face.

35. Parlock would have the rest of his wacko family
in "Awful Truth" shirts and "Out for Trout" hats "beating up" the 3-year-old and calling her a Nazi.

Theater for the wool-skinned.

Opportunists should be jailed.
