Troubled Times
Bad electoral choice? Moore’s not so hot. What happened to that strip club? Anti-drug war author responds. Plus much more.

Michael Moore! The spokesman of choice for the Dems. This could not make me happier. I must be happy, because that is what I, as a dumb, stupid, ignorant uninformed, uneducated, worker-bee/peon American, am instructed to do. Hail King Michael. We should appoint him Emperor!
p>I have a few questions. I know that I am not allowed to ask questions and am opening myself to immediate evisceration, but here goes anyway. Where is the boundary between free speech and giving aid and comfort to the enemy? Question two: how has our new Emperor escaped treason charges for giving said aid and comfort to our enemies? Are we as INFORMED, EDUCATED, and INTELLIGENT Americans becoming so lax as to let this bile go by unchallenged? I do not consider this or any other display of displeasure with Emperor Michael as a challenge. A real challenge would be to have Emperor Michael charged with treason. It’s not because Michael is ugly or fat or lies for a living or is full of hate and rage for PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH (there are plenty of other people that fit that description). No, it is because he and his movie are giving impetus to the very people who have vowed to kill all of us. This is not freedom of speech, it is treason. Our freedoms would not be challenged if a charge of treason were levied against Mr. Moore. Our continued existence on planet Earth is in jeopardy if these and other acts of treason and left unchecked. br> — Darrel Denham br> Baton Rouge, Louisiana /p>John Tabin writes that Michael Moore’s fiction has a “record breaking box office.” That is true only if you concede that Moore’s film is a “documentary” and even then $22 million is pretty paltry for a weekend gross.
But I don’t believe it to be a documentary since it’s mostly pure fiction. And given it’s made up drivel, it’s not even good fiction. I have more faith in there being a real Peter Parker spinning webs in New York.
p>And we can thank the super hero Spider-Man for again saving the day — Wednesday June 30th to be exact. I’m pretty sure that movie will gross more than $22 million in it’s first hour and will, by next weekend, have probably shattered all box office records. Doc Oc will be getting more press than Moore by then! br> — Greg Barnard br> Franklin, Tennessee /p> p>
