Photo by Tom Tomorrow, trailing Moore at the convention.
From his blog item on the meeting:
We head back to the Fleet Center and as we are getting out of the Town Car, Bill O’Reilly is across the street getting out of his limo. “Hey Moore, when ya gonna come on my show?” he shouts. Michael responds, “When you see the rest of my movie.” (O’Reilly walked out of the premiere halfway through.) He claims to have gone back and seen the whole thing, but when pressed for specifics, hems and haws. Nonetheless, Michael takes him at his word and they stand there out on the street negotiating the terms of the appearance as various Guardsmen and law enforcement types gawk and snap photos. They finally settle on a format: they will take turns asking each other questions. O’Reilly agrees not to edit the segment, and to explain in the intro that Michael has only been boycotting him because he walked out of the premiere. (It should air tonight. We’ll see if he keeps the last part of that promise.)
Should be a good ‘Factor’ tonight.
Moore is an idiot!!!!!!! I watched it. Bush lied Bush lied Bush lied – what hogwash!!!!!!!
So. Bush sent us to war with Iraq because he believed the CIA’s reports of WMDs there.
Forgive me for being the only American with an 18 month memory of current events (those who ignore the lessons of history…) but wouldn’t these be the same CIA reports in which the CIA said that Iraq was NOT an imminent threat, and that their Weapons of Mass Destruction would only be used against Americans if the U.S. attacked Iraq? (A part of the CIA’s reports mentioned repeatedly on the news before we invaded).
So, did he believe the CIA or didn’t he?
Has the man NO sense of personal responsibility for his actions? Is that why he finds it so easy to forgive Osama?
