It turns out that Michael Moore's acceptance speech at the Oscars was basically the same as the speech he'd given at the Independent Spirit Awards the previous day...where, I'm sure it's safe to assume, he received a somewhat more sympathetic reception. His remarks there included: "We have a fictitious President, who was put in office with fictitious results and he's now conducting a war for fictitious reasons. This is absolutely insane. The lesson for the children of Columbine this week is that violence is an accepted means to resolve a conflict and it's a sad, sick and immoral lesson." (Courtesy of imdb.com.)
