Why is MM (Michael Moore) laying low?

I've not seen or heard anything from double M since he endorsed Wes Clarke for Pres. and started the AWOL controversy. He hasn't written on his web site since early Feb. and his Calendar link of media and live appearances hasn't been updated since January.

Is he laying low because he has too busy with all the recent material for his next movie, "Fahrenheit 9/11, The Temperature at which Democracy Burns" or is laying low because he figures Bush is self destructing and there's no need to pile on presently?

Or, heck, maybe he's on vacation.

2. Hard at work on his new Bush film.

I can't wait to see it! Can't remember the working title, something about the Bush-Bin Laden connection.

4. I'm not sure that he's been doing us much good, so far...

He seems to have problems with credibility.

I can't wait for his movie, though. That should be awesome.

8. Right...that's what I'm referring to.

It sounds as if there were some mistakes in his book.

I'm just comparing it to Franken's which has turned out to be nearly flawless.

7. He did jump start the shrub/AWOL debate.

That's got to be worth something.

5. I have to assume he's rewriting huge chunks of his film

after all the recent 9/11 revelations. It's going to be even better and more damning!

11. MM

He's our Rush Limbaugh hehe.

I love the guy for what he does for us, but I don't find him that credible on some issues.
