Bill Maher on HBO’s Real Time: “Rich people pay something like 70 percent. And here in California, I just want to say liberals – you could actually lose me. It’s outrageous what we’re paying. It’s ridiculous.”
Sarah Palin’s wildly popular CPAC speech, punctuated by the Big Gulp swig heard ’round the word, has sparked a new late-night, post-CPAC trend … The Palin Liberty Pose.
TWEET – Reading the thousands of blogs, tweets, news stories and comments from Leftists saying Sarah Palin is irrelevant and not worth their time…
TWEET: 50,000 estimated in St. Peter’s Square for Pope Francis’ first Angelus. Crowd very upbeat.
Michael Moore tweeted a fake photo of ‘Pope Francis’ giving Communion to Argentine dictator Jorge Rafael Videla. To his credit, Moore has acknowledged his error and told folks to stop circulating the picture.
Ben Carson told CPAC he got ‘nastygrams’ calling him the N-word after he criticized Obama. [50:51]
Michael Moore claimed that a Palestinian filmmaker (who had been nominated for an Oscar) was racially profiled, detained and threatened with deportation when he tried to come into the U.S. for the Academy Awards.
Moore further claimed that he had personally saved Burnat from imminent deportation. (Cue Moore-Minator Super Hero Theme Song.)
Tessa Stuart reported at Buzzfeed that a source at LAX had challenged Moore’s account of the events, saying it was just an elaborate publicity stunt for Bernat’s film.
According to the source, Customs and Border Protection followed procedure in asking Bernat to produce his ticket to the Oscar ceremony as proof of his reason for coming here. As soon as he showed the ticket, Customs officers allowed him to proceed to the baggage claim.
Moore had a twitter hissy fit. “Tessa Stuart of Buzzfeed has lied about the Palestinian filmmaker detained at LAX and I can prove it. Tessa, I’ll give u an hr to correct.”
Stuart tweeted back. “I’ve made multiple attempts to contact you through your agent, website and Twitter. I would love to include your response.”
Moore, who wouldn’t respond to inquiries, is freaking out because the story wasn’t told the way he wanted?
Oh … but wait. An hour later, he tweeted again. “Time’s up. Buzzfeed today tried to raise doubts that Oscar nominee, Palestinian filmmaker Emad Burnat wasn’t really detained at LAX on Tues.”
Well, I guess THAT proves his version is totes true, right? Right?
Besides which, “An Academy official just emailed me: ‘Absolutely no one had physical possession of an Oscar ticket on Tuesday.’ Not Clooney, not Burnat.”
So there, Buzzfeed! I guess the Moore-minator told YOU.
[Kinda wondering though if maybe the filmmaker couldn’t have showed ICE something other than the official “ticket” … like a letter telling him he’d been nominated and should, you know like, “Come to LA for the ceremony”? Duh.]
Tweet slapping ensued between Michael Moore and BuzzFeed:
MM: Well, there’s just one little problem with this story – and if Buzzfeed had bothered to ask any of the 6,000 Academy members…
BF: We bothered to ask YOU. And you refused to respond.
MM: It’s that way every year. Oscar tickets are available only on Thursday through Saturday, the day before the Oscars.
BF: If that is your “proof” we will happily include it with the story.
MM: So that’s just an outright lie. Completely fabricated and easy to disprove with 1 call to the Academy. But why do that?
BF: As i said, we did make more than one call, to you.
MM: When the intent of your “story” was to cast doubt on this Palestinian who was being threatened with deportation last Tuesday night at LAX.
BF: The intent of our story was to provide a complete record of an event you brought to the public. We offered you the chance to respond. You declined.
BF: We will follow up with TSA and report what they say. But i dont necessarily see how the fact that he didnt have a tick but may have had an invite or a “letter” makes this a shut case.
Hey, that’s what I said!
MM: Well, everybody, should I give Buzzfeed any more time? I really do feel sorry for them.
BF: I’ve called and emailed the director, called 2 of your agents, emailed & tweeted to you for comment
The Twitchy staff didn’t care who won the slap fest.
“Either way, it’s a left-on-left battle — so whoever loses, America wins. Pass the popcorn!”
Other tweeters got in on the action:
Liberal vs Liberal? Both sides have the credibility of Barack Obama. ZERO.
Nothing warms my heart like liberal putzes in a b1tichy slap fight.
It was a big fat huge publicity stunt, and Michael Moore is Big Fat & Huge.
I’m calling it right now – his next agendamentary will be about Customs Entry and Homeland Security.
The filmmaker was “threatened with being sent back to Palestine”? Odd, I can’t find “Palestine” on a map.
“Just because I can’t see my toes doesn’t mean they’re not there!” [Michel Moore]
Moore is already lobbying the Nobel Peace Prize committee about his dramatic Palestinian hostage rescue and how he prevented a international crisis.
I can’t discount the fact that this could have all been worked out between the Director and Moore himself to be included in his next (so-called) film.
He always makes me think of a manatee in a baseball cap.
Hard to take an adult seriously that adds a baseball cap to his daily ensemble.
I am amused that the guy who interviewed a senile Charlton Heston about gun control in Bowling for Columbine is begging for other people to get his own story straight, poetic justice.
Well mikey moore if you’re in the rescuing filmmaker mode there is the guy who posted a video on youtube who is being blamed for 4 American deaths in Benghazi, you might have heard of it.
Michael Moore and MoveOn.org have teamed up to create the most base, unpleasant campaign ad ever. Featuring a host of foul-mouthed elderly voters, the spot threatens violence against both Mitt Romney and the country as a whole.
“I want the Republican Party to know – if your voter suppression throughout this beautiful country enables Mitt Romney to oust Barack Obama? WE WILL BURN THIS MOTHERFUCKER DOWN.”
Yup, that’s an actual line from an honest to goodness political ad, offered by America’s premiere hack propagandist and everyone’s favorite radical leftist political action Committee. MoveOn, of course, is funded by a host of the world’s most prominent socialist activists, most famously George Soros.
The ad continues it violent rhetoric, with a threat that, “If the Republicans steal this election, I’m going to track down Mitt Romney and give him the world’s biggest cock punch. What’s the matter sonny, you never heard that phrase? Cock Punch?”
You can read the rest of the article here if you have the stomach for it.
Here is the ad. Watch at your own risk.
Meanwhile, back in Chicago, some of Barack’s homies are feeling a little disillusioned.
And in Colorado, here are some folks who really did build their own business. Now it’s gone. Guess who destroyed it?

A little nature lesson for ya,bubala;these people were camping amid wild animals.Wild animals have three tasks in life–eat,defecate,procreate.Been doing it a long time.The bear was underweight because midsummer is not peak feeding season.When the salmon run starts next month,bears gorge themselves to store fat for the winter.If humans go into a wild animal’s territory,they assume considerable risk,especially if they don’t know what they’re doing.Apparently studying nature was not in your journalism class at Harvard.Stick to what you know,like bashing republicans as barefoot,beer-guzzling imbeciles and eeevil corporate bigshots.Leave how the real world works to us,K?
