GOP 2004: Michael Moore Draws McCain Barb, Taunts from Crowd
GOP 2004: Michael Moore Draws McCain Barb, Taunts from Crowd

NEW YORK The biggest commotion at the Republican National Convention Monday night occurred just before 10 pm with the entrance of anti-Bush filmmaker Michael Moore, who was repeatedly halted by security attempting to reach his reserved press seat in section #340 near the side of the stage. Moore is writing a daily column this week for USA Today.

Then, after taking his seat, he watched as Senator John McCain referred to a certain "disingenuous film-maker who would have us believe that Saddam's Iraq was an oasis of peace," and seemed to glance at Moore above him. Much of the audience erupted in boos and then, turning to Moore, many delegates shouted "Four more years!"

Moore waved, good-naturedly.

1. Wow
I'm surprised that Moore made it to his seat alive...I just hope he can't get out of there without being mobbed.

4. And where was McCain when we were supporting that bastard
dictator? And where was McCain when Halliburton was doing business with Saddam?

8. There's the McCain who makes fun of little girls looks
I knew he'd show up. He has a room full of adoring haters. How could he resist being so small when so many are there to take his back? It's good this part of him came out so visibly because he is TOO often given a pass for his testosterone engorged bravado.

Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly?
Her dad is Janet Reno. -John McCain at Republican fundraiser in '99
