RE: Some comments on your article on Michael Moore in today’s Miami Herald

Mr. Rodriguez,

One of the many benefits of being calorically challenged is that when you say that someone else’s ass is so fat that it has its own zip code it is never ad hominem. As anyone from Northern New Jersey [I’m from Bayonne. That’s on the good end of Hudson County] will tell you the name Fat Mike is a term of respect.

When you report that Michael Moore said that he was shocked, shocked when Bill Hemmer told him in 2004 that “people wanted him dead” I was confused.

On September 12, 2001 the Pillsbury Dough Boy cum cineaste said he wished that the terrorists had killed a lot more Republicans.

The disconnect is that it is OK to wish for the death of generic Republicans but not for the death of a specific modern American Liberal. Further, it is OK in the universe occupied by modern American Liberals to want a group of people dead. It just isn’t kosher to ask someone about it. Wazupwidat?

If it is OK to wish for the fiery deaths of people who want lower taxes is it OK for me, a “bitter clinger”, doubtless “lazy”, gun toting fierce defender of capitalism to say that, should we meet, I would kick his ass so hard that he would have to take his socks down to crap?

Could you tell Fat Mikey that if he doesn’t want to get his ass kicked we could toss crème brulees at each other at 10 paces?

I shant tell him to go to Cuba. If a campesino family got hold of him they could have the entire village over for Christmas dinner.
