Both Lawrence O'Donnell and Michael Moore are on fire. Moore is at Liberty Plaza in NYC.

1. Had tuned in just before I logged in.
MM's is a phenomenal mouthpiece for this movement. Bless his integrity, honesty, clarity, and godspeed to all his endeavors.

3. I've been watching MM since occupy began
He is certainly a voice for our times. I am terrified that he will go the way of so many who have spoken out in the past. Back in the late 60's there was a saying.
"If they can't buy you out they will blow you away."
I hope his bodyguards are on their toes.

5. Does he even have bodyguards?
If not, he may want to consider it. He does get hate mail just about every day.

6. I attended one of his appearances just prior to the '04
election. I was packing a 5-6 page printout about EVM's.

He took a break for people to write questions on 3x5 cards. He was still on the stage for the break.

I had to get home to relieve the babysitter and see my kid for our nightly end of the day conversation.

I approached the stage slowly and placed my printouts gingerly on the stage.

I was immediately escorted off the stage and off the premises by security.

Never had anything like that happen before.

So yeah he has security.

A friend was later filmed for Sicko. I told his crew about the incident and said<"What were they thinking. . .? That I was going for him to get him with paper cuts."

The crew was wonderful and they just shook their heads. Then we shared a most enjoyable lunch.

2. I swear I heard MM say 'bullshit' and it wasn't bleeped -- did you?

4. Yes, and we aren't the only ones.
Somebody at MSNBC got caught off guard.
