The man weighs 400 pounds. He's as big as a VW Bug. How could he not cause a media frenzy? It was a stupid move on USA Today's part from the get-go.

Riiiiight.

How many conservatives here would go to a DNC stadium, surrounded by thousands of people worked up into a frenzy of hate by the featured speakers?

Did anyone see Ann Coulter in Boston? Rush Limbaugh?

Get serious.

When McCain refered to him in the speech and the crowd started booing, Moore said, "I can't believe that they are stupid enough to promote the movie some more."

From what I've seen I'd be much more afraid of being a republican at the DNC vs. being a democrat at the RNC.

Exactly.

He's an agitator. At best, he is a bad entertainer. Why anyone wants to help him sell movie tickets is beyond me.

Ann Coulter was at the DNC in Boston. She quit after two days, upset with USA Today's editing of her stories.

According to my understanding, one of the central themes to Atlas Shrugged is the potential for one man, situated properly and making the right moves, to shake the world. So, tell me why Michael Moore is not a hero to the Ayn Rand cult?

Hmmm...maybe it's because no one's actually finished the book; it's so damn long.

If you lived in, or anywhere near, Flint MI, you would worship the ground he walks on.

Besides, his USA Today columns have been quite good.

Ironic, isn't it? Throw a Democrat into a cage full of "warmongering, mean-spirited" Republicans and he's as safe as a child in his mother's arms. Throw a Republican into a cage full of "peace-loving, compassionate" Democrats, and he would have to fear for his very life.

Very interesting!!!!

Sean Hanity was at the DNC convention in Boston. And yes, Ann quit. Its amazing how the manipulation of her words cuased her to get upset. I cant imagine why. I guess they didnt need to manipulate MM's words too much to get their "message" across.

Coulter quit because she can't write an article. Her mind is already made up long before she hears any point. Her article was just an attack and she didn't need to be there or see any of it to write her ****.

Her writing style is akin to Charles Manson on acid typing away about people he wishes were dead.

My apologies. From what I can come up with on the 'net, she couldn't do what she sighed up for: be a reporter. Instead, she went off on her PMS rants..
