Moore Bloviating
Michael Moore's love affair with Canada has suffered a severe setback. Why? It looks like they might vote a Conservative majority into office. Not one to take this with his mouth shut, he has chosen to write an open letter to the good folks in the Great White North to let them know of his displeasure.
These are no ordinary times, and as you go to the polls on Monday, you do so while a man running the nation to the south of you is hoping you can lend him a hand by picking Stephen Harper because he's a man who shares his world view. Do you want to help George Bush by turning Canada into his latest conquest? Is that how you want millions of us down here to see you from now on? The next notch in the cowboy belt? C'mon, where's your Canadian pride? I mean, if you're going to reduce Canada to a cheap download of Bush & Co., then at least don't surrender so easily. Can't you wait until he threatens to bomb Regina? Make him work for it, for Pete's sake.
The next notch in the cowboy belt. Whoo-ee, that's reeeally funny. As if Canadians really care what Americans think. Let them elect their own leaders. I don't appreciate them sticking their noses into our elections; the least we can do is return the favor. Am I saying this because a Conservative government might be voted in? Not really. I can like or dislike whom Canadians elect all I want, but it's really none of my affair, and so I don't take it upon myself to "tell them" whom they should vote for.
Read the whole "letter" if you feel like losing your appetite for lunch. Michael Moore thinks President Bush is an embarrassment to America, but he should take a look in the mirror to see who the real embarrassment is.

Michael Moore is such a disgrace. If he hates President Bush so much and is in love with Canada, why doesn't he just pack up and move there. The United States will have have less rodient to worry about.
Posted by: cookiewrangler at January 20, 2006 12:50 PMMichael Moore is an embarrassment to America and his home state. Just another American telling Canadians what to do as well.
Posted by: Shoprat at January 21, 2006 12:45 PMYou got to love Michael Moore. Really. You have to credit him for helping get Bush re-elected. I mean, I'd NEVER pay to watch any of his movies, but they're such obvious farses that they're comical. Hell, he's comical, like Bozo the Clown. While I know Europe takes Michael "Fats" Moore seriously, do you really think Canadians are so dumb?! I don't. Canadians are pretty smart, and I think they see Michael Moore for what he is.
