Rove’s Fat Socialist Weasel Suit?

The campaign isn’t over for Michael Moore – for an Oscar nomination. This attempt at damage control is textbook Moore in its “subtlety”.

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (Reuters) : “Fahrenheit 9/ 11” director Michael Moore on Monday rejected the idea that Hollywood had hurt John Kerry’s chances of winning the White House, insisting that he and other entertainers helped spare Democrats an even bigger defeat.
“For the last month, we’ve had to listen to a lot of conservative pundits talk about how Democrats need to run away from Hollywood,” Moore said. “It’s actually the opposite. Democrats need to embrace Hollywood because this is where they need to come to learn how to tell a story.”

Citing California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and former President Ronald Reagan, Moore said, “America loves Hollywood. America loves the people in the movies and on TV. And the thing that the Republicans have already figured out is that America likes to vote for Hollywood…
“And I think we need to turn to Hollywood, because who wouldn’t vote for Tom Hanks or Paul Newman or Robert Redford or Oprah?”

Now, c’mon everybody, stop laughing and think. Has anyone ever seen Karl Rove and Michael Moore in the same room together?
