The speakers who came to the podium all appeared to assume that the
half million or more people present were all members of the Democratic
Party and no one was more excited about this than filmmaker Michael Moore.
He urged everyone to start calling their Congressional reps every
single day, to make it a part of their morning routine, as soon as
they’d made the coffee. He urged them to run for local office, city
council, school board or, at the very least, Democratic Party precinct
delegate.
However, something happened as Michael Moore was putting the
finishing touches on his exhortation to push the old Democratic
leadership aside – despite all the good things they’ve done – and take
over the Party. When he started a sentence with, “And when we take over
the DNC. . . ,” Ashley Judd suddenly burst on the stage, rudely
interrupting him, and starting her overwrought “I am a nasty woman”
performance. Before she was done, she had saluted a list of heroic
“nasty women,” including not only Hillary Clinton but also Condolezza
Rice.
Michael Moore did not say “Excuse me, Ashley, but I haven’t finished
explaining how we’re going to take over the DNC.” Instead he tried to
save face by shouting, “Oh my God, here’s Ashley Judd!”
