I'm glad to see that Jerry Falwell has apologized for his remarks. I notice that Pat Robertson has not. I am appalled that Falwell was invited to the National Cathedral. It will be a mark of president Bush's commitment to this country that neither Falwell nor Robertson are ever invited to a formal or informal White House function again. They are evil. They even sunk below Farrakhan in their response to this event, and they deserve to be consigned to the same small box of derision that Farrakhan languishes in among decent people. But at least Falwell has responded to the criticism.

Not so Michael Moore, the man who wrote the following words on his website on September 11: "Many Families have been devastated tonight. This is just not right. They did not deserve to die. If someone did this to get back at Bush, then they did so by killing thousands of people who DID NOT VOTE for him! Boston, New York, DC and the planes' destination of California - these where places that voted AGAINST Bush!" It appears he has now deleted that message from his site, www.michaelmoore.com. An apology is beyond him. He's now in Sontag territory.

We've covered the Falwell/Robertson idiocy here but this Michael Moore filmaker is an example of the far left arts view here in America. A New Yorker arts critic writing in Salon.com had made similar remarks.
