near every week. My daughter was 4 years old and loved the show and went with me to a lecture in San Francisco on his "Stupid White Men" tour. He signed the book for her, "Grow up to do great things."

Two guys who later said they barely knew each other went into a soul kiss right in front of Daddy Phelps. That bunch couldn't wait to get out of town and canceled their other activities for the day.

Sometimes I love this town.

When he sits down and talks with a psychopathic fundy, he really does it well. I think the only other person in the political limelight who does it as well is Al Franken, and both Moore and Franken are really good at seething sarcasm, but if they want to debate someone, they switch modes and drop pretenses, quite literally. It's good stuff and very hard to do, especially if you feel you're being attacked.
