White House spokesman Scott McClellan recently accused Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., of "endorsing the policies of Michael Moore and the extreme liberal wing of the Democratic Party."
When some enthusiastic Davison, Michigan residents began to consider asking hometown "hero" Michael Moore to accept a membership in their local Davison Hall of Fame a wave of opposition started to manifest in equal measure. Moore says people will say almost anything to attack him - like Moore secretly owns stock in Halliburton. He explains, "I have never owned a share of stock. If anyone wants to attack me there are enough truly bad things about me they might use instead, like..."
"I attend weekly meetings and I am a member of an organization that seeks to cover up sexual abuse by some of its members... the Catholic Church. I am a Catholic," confesses Michael Moore.
"I also spent four years working in an institution that researches and perfects weapons of war... the University of Michigan. And, I support a cartel that has killed more Americans than any other group on Earth... the McDonalds, Burger King, Taco Belle, Colonel Sanders fast food cartel."
Moore went on to say that he believes that when the final reckoning comes everyone will be asked, "Where you an American? And did you support the war?"
"In 1776 we had a dictator and we overthrew that dictator ourselves. We didn't ask anyone to invade our country.

Moore recently told an audience in Flint, Michigan.
"Have you ever heard the name of a suicide bomber in Iraq? In Israel, right after a suicide bomber attacks, the name of the Palestinian bomber is announced. Right after 911 the names of the attackers were announced. Have you ever wondered why you never hear the name of a suicide bomber in Iraq announced over the news?" Moore explained "It's because they are Iraqi people fighting for their independence."
"I went to Mass this morning in Davison," Moore says. "The gospel was about Jesus explaining how you get into Heaven." After explaining the details Moore, says it simply boils down to, "You cannot get into Heaven without a permission slip from the poor." He explained that the priest closed the gospel saying, "We ask dear Lord that you remind the people who run Delphi that we need those jobs here in Flint."

When Utah Valley State College announced that liberal filmmaker Michael Moore would speak on their campus two weeks before the 2004 election a media frenzy erupted as angry community members and religious leaders shouted protests, pointed fingers, and quoted Mormon scripture. Attempting to calm the outrage, the college invited FOX News pundit Sean Hannity to speak a few days before Moore. But the controversy continued to explode into a full-blown war of political and religious differences… This Divided State, is the next film in the Compass Coffeehouse Cinema Series on Saturday, November 26 at 7 PM.
