BLOOMINGTON, Minn. - Get this: Michael Moore, the filmmaker, had this to say about the onslaught of Hurricane Gustav on the eve of the Republican National Convention.
"I was just thinking, this Gustav is proof that there is a God in Heaven.'' Moore said with a chuckle in a televised interview.
"That it would actually be on its way to New Orleans for Day one of the Republican convention up in the twin cities at the top of the Mississippi River,'' Moore said, in an interview with MSNBC's Keith Olbermann, on Countdown.
Moore quickly sobered up and added: "Certainly, I hope nobody gets hurt. I hope everybody's taking cover....
"Let's hope things get better.''
But when Olbermann mentioned the follower of the Rev. James Dobson who was praying for rain during Barack Obama's open-air speech before thousands in Denver last week, Moore said:
"I hear the Rev. Dobson, his actual name is Gustav.''
