Soldier Sues Micheal Moore

Quote:
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.

As long as you don't reverse that order, you'll be OK.

hypothetical question

... 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. 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.

chewing dip...?

>>I'l bel chewing dip and eating grits before you know it <<

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.
