Thank you! Thank you very much.

We live in a great country and we all love our country very much and I am so amazed that you did this — the people of America — that you voted for this film. I can't thank you enough.

I'm honored and gratified and I know that there are many people tonight — mothers and fathers across this country — with sons and daughters in Iraq. Our prayers are with them and I dedicate this award to them tonight.

I want to thank, most of all, the people out there who voted for this. I don't want you to give up. This country is still all of ours. Not just right or left, democrat or republican, it's all of our country.

I love making movies and I'll take this as an invitation to make more ‘Fahrenheit 9/11’s.


Thank you very much. Thank you very much.

3. More Fahrenheit 9/11s!

I would be willing to wager that Barbara Boxer will have large roll in the sequel!

9. SEQUEL! SEQUEL! SEQUEL!

"November 3 2004 starring G.W.Bush and his cronies along with several flip congresspeople, even more of sexy Tammy Baldwin and our new friend Barbara Boxer!"
Michael please wear a hat, it makes me and the hamsters happy.

10. He could make a library of sequels with that bunch.

* has done so much underhanded nastiness that it will be oozing out for a while.

11. F911 was Moore's second greatest work

only after Roger and Me.

12. I am a rabid MM fan,

all of his projects are great and worth watching, esp. TV NATION and Awful Truth.

[InvisibleBallots]

13. TV Nation and Awful Truth are *so* underrated

I first discovered MM when they broadcast TV Nation - I remember being really surprised they ever aired such a thing. Pure genius, the guy is awesome. And Roger and Me should be considered one of the top films of the latter 20th Century.

4. No, Mr Moore. Thank YOU!

And may I add , you're looking very snappy tonight.

5. Cheers to Michael Moore a Real American Patriot !!

American needs as many Michael Moore's as she can get cause the rightards are a vicious bunch of MF's.

16. I DVRed it

It was in the second hour, so I had to sit through all the nonsense.
I also liked what Martin Sheen said about "at least their still Democracy at the People's Choice". LOL

Moore made me tear up with his speech. I'm glad I stayed up, even though I rarely watch these award thingies. Did Gibson win anything?
When I voted passion was in the list. I turned off rhe TV tight agter MM's award so ...
