Read Howard "Stop Michael Moore" Kaloogian's insane blog
http://moveamericaforward.blogspot.com/
Quote:
One story probably summarized best what I saw at Gitmo. I was sitting in a chair in one of the interrogation rooms at Camp Delta when the chief interrogator told me the chair wheels were one of their greatest tools. Some sort of torture device? No: The wheels let interrogators slide in closely to bond with prisoners when they believe they are telling the truth and move away when they are lying.

What a freak.

3. hahahaha funny
"But I was in Guantanamo for three days last week, and I saw something very different. I concluded that, at Gitmo, we extract information from prisoners not by torture but by developing rapport with them. It involves amenities. Full rolls of toilet paper. Fruit baskets. A field trip barbecue. I talked to prisoners, visited cell blocks, surveyed their medical care, interviewed the base commander and chief interrogator on my show, and allowed callers to probe them with questions. My research extended to the officers who escorted me to breakfast and lunch - even to times when all parties were well lubricated at the Tiki Bar."

4. If he wasn't dead serious, this would be some wicked satire.
But he is serious. He is also a really, really amazing BS artist.

5. Republican Capitalism at its best . . .
I went to the site, read the Michael Moore article where he is asking for people to sign a petition to theaters, PLUS threatening a boycott of same if they show the movie.

I also tried to sign in as a member so I could try to educate the cognitive challenged Republicans; however, to be able to join, I had to make a contribution.

Unbelievable! I have never seen that before except with like large Newspapers that want a membership; however, pay to join a BLOG?

I wonder how many members this guy has actually got to pay to join his BLOG?

I wouldn't give him one wooden nickle if I could find one. (YEESH)

7. A bit on Kaloogian
So, who is Howard Kaloogian?

Kaloogian is a lawyer who previously "served" three terms in the California state legislature. He is off to the right of Bush, if that is possible.

Kooky Kaloogian is perfect for the job of denying Americans the right to see Michael Moore's latest film. He has plenty of experience. Kaloogian was behind the successful effort to intimidate CBS and stop the network from running the miniseries "The Reagans." For some reason Kaloogian believes this was a victory for free speech.

"Hundreds of thousands of Americans recently exercised their right of free speech and persuaded CBS Television not to run a mean-spirited and false miniseries about President and Mrs. Ronald Reagan," Kooky wrote on the BushCountry web site. "The liberals who are crying foul don't really believe their own spin that this populace uprising is censorship. They just cannot believe that there has been such strong opposition by the American public to seeing a prominent conservative leader defamed by liberal slander."

8. We can USE these jerks
I'm using the email addresses of theatre executives they published here:

moveamericaforward.org/MichaelMoore

to send letters of support for F911. Should I send a "thank you" note to moveamericaforward, as they have saved me the trouble of looking up all these addresses }(
