I've been impressed by the restrained political comments during the Oscars broadcast. I know that the presenters and the “winners' were cautioned not to prattle on about war items, but some have managed to slip some out.

I read a bit of online Oscar coverage, including the attributed from scripting.com “backstage” blog by a person named Ian. What a disappointment. He's backstage and we get a repeat of the winners and what they said. So what.

I just watched Michael Moore make a fool of himself on national TV. Subtract the political content of his acceptance speech and what do you have? Nothing. Just because you got your “15 minutes” of fame doesn't mean you have to prove to the world just how stupid you can be.
