Day One at the Republican National Convention and first funny story related by the Washington Post: "Michael Moore -- filmmaker, rabble-rouser, citizen -- wandered into a dangerous neighborhood on Monday. As a guest columnist for USA Today at the Republican National Convention (today and the three next days), he only wanted to take some notes, he said, to observe. But from the moment he entered Madison Square Garden, Moore was the one being observed... For more than two hours, he created a comet's tail of commotion. Holding a rolling news conference as he dragged a clot of some 70 reporters past a growing wave of security officials and hostile conventioneers, Moore came close to disrupting the entire convention.
