The front of Wednesdays New York Times Arts section featured Dwight Garners review of the new book by left-wing documentary film-maker Michael Moore, Here Comes Trouble -- Stories From My Life.
Garner, a fan, called Moore (infamous for his anti-conservative conspiracy theories and vicious, purposely misleading mockery of Republicans) a necessary irritant, and in one nauseating paragraph suggested Moores book belonged alongside works by the revolutionary founding activist Thomas Paine.
His book needs to be printed on something soft, preferably a roll. I have the perfect place to hang it.
Then, if they’ll just give them away, I’m in.
Michael Moore belongs on the same shelf as the toilet bowl cleaner.
He belong on the shelf of “books to wipe your ass with”
Yeah right. He really rallied the revolutionary Union thugs in WI to a win during that battle. More predictable mental masturbation from the NYT. Who cares. This book will bomb because no one cares about him and his Communism.
No, it belongs on the same shelf as ex-Speaker Jim Wright’s ‘book’.
Michael Moore is a Tuchas Pain.
"SOME writers have so confounded society with government, as to leave little or no distinction between them; whereas they are not only different, but have different origins. Society is produced by our wants, and government by our wickedness; the former promotes our happiness POSITIVELY by uniting our affections, the latter NEGATIVELY by restraining our vices. The one encourages intercourse, the other creates distinctions. The first is a patron, the last a punisher.
Society in every state is a blessing, but Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one: for when we suffer, or are exposed to the same miseries BY A GOVERNMENT, which we might expect in a country WITHOUT GOVERNMENT, our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer. Government, like dress, is the badge of lost innocence; the palaces of kings are built upon the ruins of the bowers of paradise. For were the impulses of conscience clear, uniform and irresistibly obeyed, man would need no other lawgiver; but that not being the case, he finds it necessary to surrender up a part of his property to furnish means for the protection of the rest; and this he is induced to do by the same prudence which in every other case advises him, out of two evils to choose the least. Wherefore, security being the true design and end of government, it unanswerably follows that whatever form thereof appears most likely to ensure it to us, with the least expense and greatest benefit, is preferable to all others."
Garner must have written that review in a blackout.
Big ROTFL on that. :)
And the NYT continues it’s full vertical dive, max afterburner plunge to earth.
I eagerly await the upcoming splat.
Sad, though, back in my college days, they used to hire folks who had talent - still liberal, but at least they had some class.
Here's Dwight
:-D )))
Ah no.
Oh Puh-leeeeeeeze....
The only fit place for Michael Moore is in a shipping container-sized pine box dropped in a deep hole with an outhouse on top where folks could pay $1 to take a dump on him.
If you’re going to put him on a shelf, make sure it’s a stout one...
