Well, I guess that’s better than John kerry’s running mate, Kim JongII.

Kerry to Return Cash From Arrested Korean

Kerry’s presidential campaign also acknowledges that some of its fund-raisers met with a South Korean government official who was trying to organize a Korean-American political group. That official has been sent home amid questions he was involving himself in American politics.

“I didn’t think anything wrong of it,” said Yi, who has raised more than $500,000 for Kerry and Democrat causes and is listed as one of the campaign’s fund-raising vice chairmen. “If I had known who he was at the time I probably would not have taken the money.”

Yi, a former military attache in the Clinton White House, said he and Chun were business partners for about six months last year in a Duluth, Ga., company called OR Solutions Inc. When making his donation Aug. 11, Chun listed himself as the company’s president and chief operating officer.

Peter Camejo is a genuine commie. He was the presidential candidate of the Socialist Worker’s Party in 1976. They were, and still are, Marxist-Lenninist….which is another term for Communist, albieit pro-Trotsky.

Unfairenheit 9/11
The lies of Michael Moore.

Moore: Trying to have it three ways

One of the many problems with the American left, and indeed of the American left, has been its image and self-image as something rather too solemn, mirthless, herbivorous, dull, monochrome, righteous, and boring. How many times, in my old days at The Nation magazine, did I hear wistful and semienvious ruminations? Where was the radical Firing Line show? Who will be our Rush Limbaugh? I used privately to hope that the emphasis, if the comrades ever got around to it, would be on the first of those and not the second. But the meetings themselves were so mind-numbing and lugubrious that I thought the danger of success on either front was infinitely slight.

Nonetheless, it seems that an answer to this long-felt need is finally beginning to emerge. I exempt Al Franken’s unintentionally funny Air America network, to which I gave a couple of interviews in its early days. There, one could hear the reassuring noise of collapsing scenery and tripped-over wires and be reminded once again that correct politics and smooth media presentation are not even distant cousins. With Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 9/11, however, an entirely new note has been struck. Here we glimpse a possible fusion between the turgid routines of MoveOn.org and the filmic standards, if not exactly the filmic skills, of Sergei Eisenstein or Leni Riefenstahl.

To describe this film as dishonest and demagogic would almost be to promote those terms to the level of respectability. To describe this film as a piece of crap would be to run the risk of a discourse that would never again rise above the excremental. To describe it as an exercise in facile crowd-pleasing would be too obvious. Fahrenheit 9/11 is a sinister exercise in moral frivolity, crudely disguised as an exercise in seriousness. It is also a spectacle of abject political cowardice masking itself as a demonstration of “dissenting” bravery.

Gosh, DP, if your critiques of the left and Michael Moore were directed at the Presidential campaigns of President Bush and Senator Kerry, I would have to agree with the vain and vacuous drivel you dished up here.

I happened on to this site because I thought it was devoted to discussing the truth in the news arena, and might be an interesting site for an independent.

Boy, was I wrong. Must be the Command Post for Freep and Rush.

I wonder who requested that Mr. Bush, after commenting on the serious subject of terrorists, lost of U.S. soliders, etc., immediately urge reporters to “watch this (golf) swing.”

I wonder who made Bush address his fundraising audience thusly: “There are the haves, and the have mores. You are the have mores.”

Or this one to his wealthy supporters: “Some people call you the elite; I call you my base.”

Or perhaps playing ‘peek a boo’ with a make-up artist before announcing the country is going to war is exactly what some of you find appropriate.

Mr. Bush is no Ronald Reagan. That’s not Moore’s fault.

I’m going to see Moore’s film, just as I would a like film on John Kerry.

I think that’s what all this ‘outrage’ is about. Moore beat the right wing to it, and the biggest contributor to the harsh light placed on Bush is Bush himself.
