View Full Version : Soldier Sues Micheal Moore
A double-amputee veteran of the Iraq war is suing filmmaker Michael Moore for $85 million, claiming Moore used an old interview with the G.I. to make him appear anti-war in his movie "Fahrenheit 9/11."
Sgt. Peter Damon, 33, who strongly supports America's invasion of Iraq, said he never agreed to be in the 2004 movie. Damon lost his arms when a Black Hawk helicopter exploded in front of him.
In the 2003 interview, which he did at Walter Reed Army Hospital for NBC News, he discussed only a new painkiller the military was using on wounded veterans, the New York Post reports.
"They took the clip because it was a gut-wrenching scene," Damon said. "They sandwiched it in. [Moore] was using me as ammunition."

Good for this Soldier, I hope they win and others get the same idea. Someone needs to pierce Michael Moore's ear with a 5.56, just for good measure.
I hope Sgt. Damon and his family, goes through with their case, and not take some out of court settlement.
Hopefully that'll shut that POS up.
Fucking hooah, as you folks say.
He's learning. :D
Well said too.
LMAO :D

Good for him!! Cut deep into that fatass!!
Except in Hollyweird any publicity is good publicity.
... would it be slander if someone said that Mr Moore was a fat ugly stupid
self-absorbed self-important funny-looking lying-for-personal-gain activist hidding behind a directors chair taking-advantage-of-those-with-more-human-qualities-than-he-could-buy-with-all-of-his-movie-money-shit-bag shitty-movie making fag?
Just curious...

Probably. Unfortunately, it only takes one error to invalidate your entire statement. FWIW, I doubt he's stupid and while he's probably sympathetic to the homosexual adgenda, he's most likely not a "fag" either. Just look at the money he's made exploiting the stupidity of the unwashed masses. And in order to be a practicing sexual being of whichever persuasion, you have to be capable of consumating the act. His physical attributes lend reasonable doubt to your conjecture. You might lose a few points for style too. The remainder of your diatribe listing his other "sterling" qualities seems to be somewhat understated. :p Peregrino

Billy L-bach was close enough for me.
Because I'm really sensitive about things like this, I hope this discussion doesn't offend Mr. Moore.

Being a true Southerner, Texan, and quasi redneck let me help you out:)-'''
Dip is finely chopped tobacco that usually comes in a re-sealable can. You put a 'pinch' somewhere between your lip/cheek and your gums. If it is not Skoal or Copenhagen then it is yuppie pretend candy stuff. Some dippers don't spit. Dip gets in your teeth if your not careful or experienced.
Chewing tobacco is cut leaf and comes in a pouch. The treatments/flavoring of this fine American tradition are too numerous to mention but worth a try if you're up to it. The 'chew' (aka 'chaw') is actually chewed on and savored by the user on the preferred side of the jaw - between the inner cheek and lower gum line. Chewers sometimes discover stems in their chew and pull them out like thread.
Chewing/Dipping produces a tremendous amount of dark colored tobacco flavored spit. This spit can be used as a a source of entertainment or chick repellent at the users discretion. A great example of this tremendous American contribution is the movie "Josey Wales" - a Confederate pre-SFer UW expert!
A lot of chewers/dippers use empty cups, soda cans, and bottles to capture and or collect the spittle refuse. Some of these containers can be seen decorating trucks and team rooms as trophies to the addiction or they just mark territory. A sophisticated dry leaf tobacco connoisseur will always place some form of paper splash control device into the choice of spit container. There is also the art of 'turning in' a used aluminum can top with nothing more than the pop top.
Some 'spitters' are dubbed as community 'spitters'. A dip spit container has a more powerful smell than one for the chewers. Those that chew prefer not to mingle with dippers - for the most part. If in the company of chewers/dippers be very careful picking up anything to drink or you might get an interesting surprise - another source of entertainment for those tobacco abusers.
So, you can not 'chew dip' nor 'dip chew'. You are forgiven by us traditional American leaf tobacco addicts as you are a from down under - no rules just write.
FYI - I am a sarcastic chewer who is taking a lifetime to quit my addiction!
Spitting on MMore for what he has done would be a privilage and source of entertainment.

But Michael Moore is a member of:
Film
Actors
Guild

BTW dont forget the ever popular Mammoth Cave twist its a local favorite. I'm pretty sure the juice made from chewing that would eat through a cars paint in record time.

Good stuff,
I never do well with one sided, push all my views on you even if I have to lie to do it, make America look shitty and the people who fight for it look like tools even though they have never served by using cliped together video pieces and even more super liberal BS kinda guys. Not saying Moore is that type of guy or anything ;-) just saying....
:boohoo

Let me reiterate this for the non-dippers out there. Never. Ever. Ever. take a drink of anything around dippers without checking first. :eek: :eek: :eek:
I'm still looking for the useless so-and-so who made a habit of spitting into my Coke cans. Even when they were still ice-cold. Someone in my company must've had it out for me. :lifter

That's some hardcore logging fuel and you do want a knife to cut off a chewable plug.

My apologies - You are correct! Plug and or a Twist are forms of chewing tobacco that is processed and then compressed for packaging. Personally, I like Levi plug but it does seem to dry out faster than regular leaf chew. Also, the spittle is much darker or concentrated than regular chew and/or dip. Quality tobacco Plug and Twists are becoming more difficult to find. For me the real redneck test is "Where can you buy it?" If you can't find it at a Stuff-Mart (aka WalMart) or your local country gas station then it isn't redneck. Yes, for those of you who are uninformed: Rednecks have trends and even fads.... I know it's a scary thought but don't, there is nothing to fear. The rednecks in NJ are Pine Barrons, AR/MS/AL they are Hicks, and in WA they are the Wolf People. Each sub-culture has its own nuances and ROE. In the South there are actually 2 dominant cultures: Lowland and Highland. Lowland is very hierarchal and traditional - think French Roman Catholic. Highland is equality/performance based and is always looking for a better way - think WalMart or Tyson's.
I think (I am making a generalization here) that most of rural America sees MMore as an un-American fat profiteer on the left coast with a political agenda. They may not agree with him or even like his agenda but they would be polite/curtieouus towards him if he came to town. But MMore would have to follow their sub-culture's rules or else. Most of the people would probably agree that MMore is to self-absorbed to respect anyone who is different: either politically or culturally. MMore is an embarrassment to our Nation and an insult to those who have served at the civil and national levels. Unfortunately, America's shit filter has holes in it and big turds like him slip through. They are able to promote a victim/herd mentality across a broad scope of energetic loud mouthed undeserving minions. These folks are referred to as Sheeple or better yet, Constitutional Parasites! Anytime I hear "I deserve or I think" spew forth from a politicized western lifestyle junkie who has done nothing for anyone but themselves, I giggle inside. I can have a discussion with someone who is serving or has served. Sheeple do nothing but argue and try to convince you that you are wrong... then they break out the labels... it's weakness masquerading as righteousness: also known as perversion.
That's my .02...

Ah, yes, the paper splash control device! Being a neophyte chewer (OK, I'm a Yankee too), I used to just use an empty water bottle. One day I was over a friend's house, and he noticed my naked water bottle. He laughed and instructed me on the proper installation and use of the PSCD, said that's how they did it in the Corps. It has taken my chewing experience to a whole new level.
My first boss when I jumped from consulting into industry was a workaholic who dipped like crazy. Nice view, nice address near Wall St., but his office always had 3 or 4 foam cups laying around. He was one of the best bosses I ever had, but when I went in for meetings, I made damn sure I knew where my coffee cup was!
