And now it's time to check in again with Maniac Mike Moriarty
Hooded eagles don't fly!

By Michael Moriarty
web posted October 23, 2006


The Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision in 1973, as I've said many times before, literally burned the Declaration of Independence and the American "inalienable right to life … when created", not gestated! All men are created equal, not gestated so, and American equality does not mean doing unto gestating infants what we would not want done unto our own gestating infancy.

In order to protect this immolation of our virtual birth certificate and in order to not encourage a Pro-Life resistance, the intellectual supremacists of the Progressive Liberal conglomerate, who have always controlled the mainstream press, made sure that the subject of abortion be kept out of the mainstream communications, off the front pages, out of film and television scripts and a subject rarely broached even on cable television.

I describe that as the "hooding of the American Eagle."

Hooded Eagles don't fly. As it is, the American Eagle sits restlessly in its blinded state, but necessarily obedient upon the Falconers' shoulders, those platforms of influence you see when you examine the increasingly vast power of the American Intelligentsia that has ruled the American Government from 1988 to the upcoming Presidential election in 2008, in an imperialistic coalition of the federalist and global aims of the Democratic Party and the always expected Wall Street Greed of the Republican Party. Twenty years of living under increasingly intellectual supremacism.

1. Michael is such a sad waste of wonderful talent.
I watched him in rehearsal before he got famous....absolutely amazing craftsman.

3. He tickles a mean set of ivories too.
He was brilliant as Ben Stone on old-school L&O (I'm still waiting for Dick Wolf to convince him to return for a showdown with Jack McCoy).

But, make no mistake about it, homeboy be illin'!

5. Alcohol addled.
But maybe that began as self-medication. He had an incident of walking offstage in the middle of a performance when he was in his 20s.

Wonder what happened to his son.

2. No wonder Sam Waterston replaced Moriarty on "Law & Order."
Waterston reads "The Nation" magazine.

4. I'm fuzzy on the particulars (someone with a better memory, plz jump in)
I think, back in the Big Dog days, when the V-Chip came out; he got it in his mind that Janet Reno was out to persecute him. I know I'm missing some pieces here.

6. My alltime favorite Moriarity flick is "Q"
He was so off center in that one. It's on late night cable sometimes. Then my second favority is Band the Drum Slowly--he was better than DeNiro in that one!

7. funny to see this, in a way...
Now I understand why he took the leading role in IT'S ALIVE III... considering that the original was probably the first and only pro-life horror film.
