"delicate sensibilities of conservatives" - stand at the exit of one of the movie theaters showing Micahael Moore's movies and look at the fire in the eyes of the impressionable "sensibilibilites of liberals", knowing what we know about Michael Moore, and then talk to me about "delicate." I'm tired of this screaming about your rights to free speech - no matter how inappropriately and deceitfully undertaken, are being threatened by our rights to react. It's a two way street.

In order to stay on topic i'll ignore this

"the delicate sensibilities of conservatives, in this case--which apprently only extend to hearing sentences they do not like, but not to matters like being lied to to justify war, a corrupt republican administration, the aborgation of basic civil liberties in the name of a war on terrorism, or to the radical expansion of the prison system as source of cheap labor for corporations for example---are less likely to be offended if you just play records."

There are a million and one reasons to dislike Michael Moore, all of which have been beaten to death here. Point being, not liking him does not mean you are a nimrod.

I don't think the contracted stated "you're getting old so if your performance sucks, you're fired" but we wouldn't consider it a breach of contract if this situation were the one realized. The reaction from the crowd is all that matters, the crowd hated her, so should the hotel - for that reason alone. As I said before I sympathize with the crowd's reaction. Just as she had a right to say what she did, the crowd had a right to react.

I think it's safe to say if Madonna started off her next concert with an hour long unannounced intro by Rush Limbaugh, the crowd would be none too happy, and Madonna's career wouldn't last long. Nothing wrong with this situation. For every action......
