Of Lumbering Pseudoproles
• Views: 1,159
James Lileks has a good one today, on media negativity and Michael Moore’s pathetic performance at the Oscars:
I’m not disheartened by the sight of what those motherless sons of bitches did to the captured troops - not in the sense of wishing we would curl up and whimper Mommy and scamper back home. My first reaction was to wish that we’d identify the location of a Special Republican Guard unit, replace the B in MOAB with P, and drop the Mother Of All Payback on them. This intemperate emotion conflicts with the advice of lumbering pseudoprole Michael Moore, seen earlier this week wearing a button that said “Shoot Movies, Not Iraqis.” Well, Mike, the Iraqis shot a movie about the shooting of Americans; what now?
Here’s a good topic to discuss the Oscars, if anyone wants to; I didn’t watch, although it is vaguely pleasant to know that Michael Moore was booed.
