AS's "Moore" Award

IF THAT'S IT, THE LEFT IS DOING FINE IN AMERICA

AS's glossary says, "intemporate, bitter, and divisive", in a parallel 'category' with Michelle Malkin.

I cannot think of anything memorably funny that Michelle has done, except walk away from Blumenthal after refusing to autograph a photo of Japanese interred and taking Geraldo seriously enough to quit FOX ...

I don't have a problem fending off the far left and the rabid right, but would you describe Moore as bitter and intemporate?

I find most of his lampooning hysterically funny. Who will forget his getting a gun 'for free' in a bank for opening a checking account or having Charlton Heston walk out on him? Driving around the Capital in an ice-cream-like truck asking if anyone had read the Patriot Act? Chartering a fleet to motor into Guantanamo Bay?

I cannot think of anything memorably funny that Michelle has done, except walk away from Blumenthal after refusing to autograph a photo of Japanese interred (i.e. endorse her own policy position) and taking Geraldo at-large loose-cannon seriously enough to quit FOX (while satisfying Bill-O in doing so, as he arguably wouldn't want a soft-on-the-eyes young rival for his perpetual policeman 'slot').

I might grant "divisive", for works like F-911. All the same, if Moore is the epitome or the worst of the 'far left' (rather than just a poster-child for the Right, for their own reasons), the Left is doing fine in America (even moreso, as we find out more about the wartime plenipotents that Bush-Cheney fancy themselves, with help from the DOJ and the U.S. Attorney Bush General).
