Please don’t talk about torture. Here disgusting buffoons are all but terrorizing the civilized world, with attacks in Srinagar, Kargil, London and Glasgow. And you sit in your lavish home and talk about torture. Get over it. Guantanomo Bay is the right way to go! Stop patronizing the wrong doers. Bush is right. Either you are with us or not.

Michael Moore is often just a smarter and more articulate version of the EveryAmerican sitting in his wifebeaters on his couch on a weekend afternoon, drinking his sixth Budweiser, and spinning conspiracy theories of how everbody’s out to get him.

It happened in early 2002. They were in Afghanistan and then Pakistan reporting on 9/11-related stories, and if memory serves from the book (don’t have it handy right now), they had relocated to Bombay shortly before 9/11, or right after…

Pravin, totally agree with you on Noah Wyle.
