[ RE: MICHAEL MOORE'S "FAHRENHEIT 9/11" BEFORE I GO SEE IT ... WHICH I MAY NEVER ... I KNOW BUSH IS TOTAL BULLSHIT... WHY WOULD I NEED TO SEE A MOVIE THAT TELLS ME WHAT I KNOW? ] [RHETORICAL VERSE / HAIKU SEQUENCE] Michael Moore can't speak with rhetorical power. That's why they let him. He's not persuasive. He cannot change any minds. A safe angry voice. Of course, we're so screwed that people are desperate not to hear bullshit... ... OR different bullshit. Michael Moore is "selective," like Bush's folks are. I've met Michael Moore: a meanspirited shithead. The world needs all kinds. {smile} But let's hope the world has a role for "non-bullshit." That's where I come in. {bigger smile} |

[RE: RONALD REAGAN] [RHETORICAL VERSE / HAIKU] RONALD REAGAN'S CALLED "THE GREAT COMMUNICATOR." THAT IS PURE BULLSHIT. ONLY A NATION THAT DOES NOT KNOW WHAT SPEECH IS WOULD CALL REAGAN THAT. UNEDUCATED IN THE MODE OF RHETORIC: WE HAVE NO JUDGEMENT. IF YOU'VE NEVER SEEN WHAT A REAL ORATOR DOES, YOU HAVE NO IDEA. CONSIDER OUR MESS CAUSED BY THAT INCOMPETENT SQUATTING IN WHITE HOUSE. HOW DID BUSH GET THERE? WE, THE PEOPLE, ARE STUPID RHETORICALLY. WE, THE MEDIA, ALSO A BUNCH OF MORONS RHETORICALLY. AND YES, POOR AL GORE. AND POOR AL GORE'S LEGAL TEAM. BOISE AND LAWRENCE TRIBE. YEP, THOSE LEGAL GUNS ARE RHETORICAL BABIES. THEIR "LEGAL SMARTS" FAILED. BOISE "WHIPPED" MICROSOFT IN A PICKY LEGAL WAY. BUT MICROSOFT "WON." THERE WAS NO JURY. A JURY IS WON OVER RHETORICALLY. "THE PEOPLE" DON'T SEE WHAT MICROSOFT HAS DONE WRONG. ONLY A JUDGE DID. IN THE BIG WIDE WORLD MICROSOFT IS STILL SMILING. THE PEOPLE DON'T SEE. WHY THIS STRANGE SIDE-TRIP WHILE SPEAKING AT REAGAN'S DEATH? HIS BULLSHIT MANTLE: ... THE REPEATED PHRASE: "THE GREAT COMMUNICATOR" THAT IS BULLSHIT, DEAR. I SAW REAGAN SMILE JUST ONCE AT ME IN A CHURCH. HIS SMILE WAS PERFECT. I MAY NEVER SEE A MORE GENEROUS EMBRACE WITH A SMILE AGAIN. I MISS REAGAN'S SMILE ... THAT IS BIGGER THAN YOU KNOW. BUT STOP THE BULLSHIT. |
