There’s the case of the navy wife, as reported in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

Morally Straight… unless it costs them $money$
How can the Boy Scouts speak and brag of being “morally straight,” when they refuse to do something simple like take responsibility for their own actions?
Let’s see if Moore will put his money where his mouth is…
It appears that maybe Michael Moore and I agree on something, that being that copyright law in the US is being horribly abused. Of course, we may find out soon enough whether he really believes this or not.
Among the ways to test this is the invitation to “steal” his movie. Since Moore claims he’s not against people downloading his work off peer-to-peer networks, as long as they don’t make a profit on it, we’ll have to assume this is okay. Of course, we at scaredpoet.com disclaim all liability here. 🙂
Besides, this might be a good way to avoid ultra-left fanatics who like to violently demonstrate in support of the movie outside of movie theaters.
Note: for the record, I don’t advocate the site link’s outher views, such the whole let’s-re-elect-Bush thing. Goodness knows I hate Bush. But if the public thinks we’re all a bunch of Michael Moores, then w’eve pretty much handed the election over to the GOP, in my opinion.
Makes me sad to be a liberal
A ruckcus occurred over the weekend at a screening of Farenheit 9/11. Is anyone surprised?
But the horror kept on growing for Streeter as he walked to his car on the phone with police, “This guy turns, and totally by surprise takes his hand and bam! It was a big guy. Shoved me onto the ground, I hit my head.” A police report has been filed.
This is why the Right keeps winning elections, people. If the left keeps looking like a bunch of chaotic hooligans who will readily kick the ass of anyone who not even disagrees, but is simply ambivalent to their views, then I find it hard even for me to show up at the polls this coming election day to vote for anyone.
Now, if anyone plans on coming over to smack me to the ground, post a comment and let me know beforehand. So’s I can be ready ‘n all. 🙂
FWIW, I have been in contact with moveon.org’s PR point person after I informed them that I was writing this up (see what having a crummy website will get you?). Per Moveon.org:
If you read the story or follow up with the reporter you will find that the accused IS NOT a MoveOn member.
So, just a fanatic that took things a little too far, according to the MoveOn pac. Though honestly, nowhere in the story does it say that the “accused” isn’t a moveon.org member, unless I’m missing something.
If you’re an activist, keep your cool, and don’t let this happen to you!
