Michael Moore Statement on Canadian Election (barf alert)
MichaelMoore.com ^ | 01/21/2006 | Michael Moore

Posted on 01/21/2006 8:02:18 AM PST by NapkinUser

Oh, Canada -- you're not really going to elect a Conservative majority on Monday, are you? That's a joke, right? I know you have a great sense of humor, and certainly a well-developed sense of irony, but this is no longer funny. Maybe it's a new form of Canadian irony -- reverse irony! OK, now I get it. First, you have the courage to stand against the war in Iraq -- and then you elect a prime minister who's for it. You declare gay people have equal rights -- and then you elect a man who says they don't. You give your native peoples their own autonomy and their own territory -- and then you vote for a man who wants to cut aid to these poorest of your citizens. Wow, that is intense! Only Canadians could pull off a hat trick of humor like that. My hat's off to you.

Far be it from me, as an American, to suggest what you should do. You already have too many Americans telling you what to do. Well, actually, you've got just one American who keeps telling you to roll over and fetch and sit. I hope you don't feel this appeal of mine is too intrusive but I just couldn't sit by, as your friend, and say nothing. Yes, I agree, the Liberals have some 'splainin' to do. And yes, one party in power for more than a decade gets a little... long. But you have a parliamentary system (I'll bet you didn't know that -- see, that's why you need Americans telling you things!). There are ways at the polls to have your voices heard other than throwing the baby out with the bath water.

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.

But seriously, I know you're not going to elect a guy who should really be running for governor of Utah. Whew! I knew it! You almost had me there. Very funny. Don't do that again. God, I love you, you crazy cold wonderful neighbors to my north. Don't ever change.

Michael Moore

(Mr. Moore is not available for interviews because he now needs to address the situation in Azerbaijan. But he could be talked into it for a couple of tickets to a Leaf's game.)

Dear Michael: liberal policies are losers--even the Canadians have figured this out...

There is so much typical liberal arrogance and condescension in this article I don't know where to start.

Did Basket-A$$ write this missive himself, or did he get help from Babs?

Curious minds don't care.

Let me translate:
Harper is a Bush puppet. You are too stupid to realize that. You are too stupid to come to decisions on your own; you are letting these people manipulate you. I, the great Michael Moron, know what is better for you even though I don't live up there,
Your pal, MM

I have to say that the first thing that popped into my mind when I started hearing about the Canadian election was : where wll the DUmmies go now? Didn't they all want to escape to Canada? If it becomes conservative, what will they do?

(ok - I admit I haven't lost any sleep over it)

Dear Mr. Moore,

Thanks for the advice. I'm sure your comments will spur a conservative landslide.

Regards,

Canada

"...even though that's exactly what I'm doing."

Moron wants Canada to stay on its anti-gun path.

I was just on a radio discussion board and someone mentioned Glenn Beck's "fantasy of killing Michael Moore". Kill him? No, no, we WANT him around...because he only helps our side when people see how ridiculous the libs are. F 9/11 helped bring our base out to vote: Fahrenheit 11/2/04. Good job Mikey!!

CBC's long-running satire show Royal Canadian Air Farce has a poll on who should win. Stewie Griffin of Family Guy is
a candidate. (I voted Harper.)
