Sickos.

Osama uncut. Michael Moore challenged. Goose Creek Two. And more.

Henry Gomez at Babalu Blog led an anti-socialist blogburst this week to counter Michael Moore’s anti-American, pro-Cuban health care crockumentary.
Claudia 4 Libertad strikes back:
Ask any Cuban who has recently left the island (because they can’t talk freely about this inside of Cuba) about their health care system and they will tell you that it is [...]

We put up our latest Hot Air Vent, tackling Sicko, on YouTube. You can watch here:

Variety reported yesterday that Moore won’t debate Tom Delay on ABC News. He was originally scheduled to debate former Rep. Billy Tauzin:
On Thursday, former House GOP leader Tom DeLay called filmmaker Michael Moore a “plus-sized publicity hound” who is “chicken” [...]

Out with Sicko. In with Pinko. Cuban bloggers strike back.

Crockumentarian Michael Moore heads to the Beltway. Time for a reality check-up.

Cuba is decrying the “censorship” of crockumentarian Michael Moore. Yeah, Cuba is decrying censorship:
Cuba characterized American filmmaker Michael Moore as a victim of censorship and the U.S. trade embargo as it reported Friday on a U.S. Treasury Department probe of his March visit here for his upcoming health-care documentary, “Sicko.”
Moore took the trip, for a [...]

Michael Moore is playing martyr to full effect in advance of the premiere of his latest crockumentary effort. He reportedly faces a US Treasury Department “probe” for taking ailing Sept. 11 rescue workers to Cuba for a segment in his upcoming health-care documentary “Sicko.”
Posted on his website this morning:
‘SiCKO,’ Michael Moore’s new movie, will rip [...]

Tigerhawk takes a closer look at the Democrats’ legislative proposal to create a “Department of Peace and Nonviolence.”
Jim Hoft nominates Cindy Sheehan to head the PAND.
Rick Moran proposes other Democrat Departments.
Next: Changing all “departments” to “ministries.”
And Michael Moore for Minister of Health.

What goes around, comes around. A new documentary unmasking Michael Moore debuts today at the South by Southwest film festival:
The cameras get turned on Michael Moore for a change at the South by Southwest film festival, where the documentary Manufacturing Dissent will have its world premiere.
The film from directors Rick Caine and Debbie Melnyk, playing [...]

Jules Crittenden discovers a left-wing war plan–from Michael Moore.

Lifter?
On Tuesday, Michael Moore published a much-heralded “letter to disheartened conservatives.” He was so proud of his manifesto that he turned it into a petition–which now has more than 17,000 signatures.

It goes on like this:
Dear Conservatives and Republicans,
I, and my fellow signatories, hereby make these promises to you:
1. We will always respect you for [...]

I’m hanging it up for the night, er, morning. Unlike Michael Moore in 2004, however, I will not be staying in bed for three days in a catatonic state. I will not need PEST shock therapy. I will not move to Australia.
A moonbat reader e-mailed a taunt earlier this evening:
How’s it feel to be [...]

The New York Times tries to temper the Democratic exuberance it has been stoking for weeks.
Flashback to Oct. 21:
There is something unusual bubbling in Democratic political waters these days: optimism.
With each new delivery of bad news for Republicans — another Republican congressman under investigation, another Republican district conceded, another poll showing support for the Republican-controlled [...]

John Hinderaker notes Victor Davis Hanson channeling Unhinged:
The Democrats have not elected congressional majorities in 12 years, and they’ve occupied the White House in only eight of the last 26 years. The left’s current unruliness seems a way of scapegoating others for a more elemental frustration - that they can’t gain a national majority based [...]

***see the update!***
A tipster sent me a page from the Los Angeles public school teachers union’s newspaper. You’ll be happy to know that Bush Derangement Syndrome is blossoming in government schools–and that union leaders are making sure to reward their little propaganda artists-in-training.

Bush-is-bloodthirsty verse? Check.

Anti-war bleating? Check.

John Edwards, the 2004 Democratic vice presidential candidate, says his vote on the Iraq war was a mistake.
Edwards, who essentially rose to prominence because of his pretty face and his bouncy hair, has now come full-circle on his Iraq position.
Edwards didn’t just vote to authorize force, he was one of the co-sponsors [...]

Michael Moore issues threats. A moonbat slips into Fox News. Ace rips the Times, which heralds the non-existent “irate moderate.” Cynthia whines (scroll down for video and more video in tears), Neal Boortz rejoices, and we pay tribute to the crackpot from Georgia. So long, sister:

From Michael Moore’s website:
Dear Friends,
GSFP and Code Pink are sponsoring a hunger strike for peace which begins July 04, called Troops Home Fast Some of us like Dick Gregory and Diane Wilson will be fasting until the troops come home from Iraq, and some, like me, will be fasting for a specified time. My fast [...]

Meet the 21st century librarian: Book-smart. Bush-deranged.
My column previews the American Library Association’s annual conference in New Orleans (hey, maybe that’s why they needed the National Guard). It opens tomorrow with Madeline Albright (here’s the schedule) and the First Lady is scheduled to speak on Monday. Cokie Roberts is the closing speaker.
Popular speakers at [...]

After the 2004 election, so many American liberals came down with depression that medical professionals coined a new phrase for their unhinged condition: post-election selection trauma (or PEST).
One wonders what malady Canadian liberals will contract after they lose at the polls in today’s election. Meddling Michael Moore is already in the throes of [...]

Good lunch-time surfing…
John Noonan at The Officer’s Club reflects on the 25th anniversary of the end of the Iran Hostage crisis:
While the Iranian regime was still taking its baby-steps, we revealed to the Ayatollahs our greatest weakness: upsetting the American public is our Achilles heel. Two years later, Iranian-backed Hezbollah terrorists twice bombed US [...]

Pajamas Media has highlights from its excellent team of Iraqi bloggers who covered the election yesterday.
Ed Morrissey notices the NYTimes editorial page’s silence.
Turnout is estimated at 11 million. Now, the tallying begins:

Ok, just got home and have been deluged with e-mails asking for comment and more info on the Drudge Report’s big story tonight about CNN’s X-tra special treatment of Vice President Cheney. It’s seemingly reminiscent of the MSM photo doctoring of Condi Rice’s eyes and the Netscape/CNN.com editors’ post-election photo pranks on [...]

The conspiracy-mongers at the Northern California 9/11 Truth Alliance held an art contest for students. (Hat tip: Reader John K.) Little Hannah Stutz, 11, won second place for a Crayola exercise in Bush-bashing. She got a little help from dad:
Hannah Stutz, 11, turned her love of art into a heavy political statement that earned her [...]

Who knew Pat Robertson held a key administration post?
Or, that he had significant foreign policy influence?
In what way is Robertson more than an opinionated, somewhat influential television host? He hasn’t claimed to speak on the government’s behalf.
So when he calls for a oppressive tyrant’s head, what in the world is the fuss about?
Could [...]

As I’m sure you’re already aware, Michelle is off with her family on vacation for a couple of days. While she’s gone she left a set of her keys with me. From the JunkYard to the top of the ecosystem in one day–the view from up here almost makes me dizzy.
Like Michelle, [...]

Anti-war activists and far-left organizations have been galvanized by Cindy Sheehan’s continuing protest outside President Bush’s Crawford, Texas, ranch. MoveOn.org has hopped on the bandwagon with a newspaper ad and Internet campaign. Air America hosts, all too happy to talk about something other than their own unpleasant political and financial woes, have [...]

Clintonite Paul Begala speaking to college students about Republicans:
“They want to kill me and my children if they can. But if they just kill me and not my children, they want my children to be comforted — that while they didn’t protect me because they cut my taxes, my children won’t have to pay any [...]
