The Furious Spinner

Michael Moore is doing a blog during his Slacker Tour. I think the Slacker Clan would fit well under the umbrella of the Trickster Tribe, don't you?

I watched a few minutes of CNN in the last couple of days. What amazes me is how angry the Republican talking heads are. The woman I just watched was nearly foaming at the mouth. As Michael Moore has pointed out, they've got the presidency, the Senate, and the House. What are they so pissed about? They should be dancing in the streets. I don't think they're truly angry. Most likely the talking heads have been told to appear outraged that Kerry is questioning what the president is doing in Iraq. They have to act outraged so they can then accuse him of treason, which is essentially what they've been doing. It's a smokescreen which I'm sure will work. Americans have a blind spot when it comes to backing presidents when "we" are at war. You wait, the Bushies are going to keep banging this drum, screaming that it's harmful to our troops to criticize the war. Uh-huh.

Michael Moore has put the letters he received from American soldiers in Iraq into a book due out next week, called Will They Ever Trust Us Again? Don't forget Fahrenheit 9/11 is out in DVD and VHS next week, too, in case you want to gift it to any of your conservative friends or family. 1 comments

By now you know the dance, huh, kiddo! Appear outraged! it's an outrage!!! how dare you! Ugh, I'm so sick of it.

Imagine, another presidential election in 2008. Right wingers OUTRAGED and spewing venom and telling lies AGAIN. The thought makes me sick.

Really, those guy's tactic make me sick. They are really lowering the level of debate in this country - I've never seen it so dumb and I am 50 years old.
