Crush Liberalism

Mikie Moore upset at Canada?

The headline is too rich to ignore: “US filmmaker Michael Moore weighs in on Canada’s election” Excerpt:

Controversial American documentary filmmaker Michael Moore bemoaned an apparent right turn by liberal northern neighbor Canada in its upcoming general election.

“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, … but this is no longer funny,” Moore complained in a commentary on his website.

“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,” Moore moaned.

Conservatives led by Stephen Harper were ahead of Prime Minister Paul Martin’s Liberals by a comfortable 10 to 12 points, polls showed Saturday, two days before Canadians go to the polls.

In “Bowling for Columbine,” his documentary on gun violence in the United States, Moore heads north to Canada to flee the rise of conservatism on US soil.

Dammit! He went to Canada and then came back? There seems to be no shortage of limousine leftists who poormouth America and threaten to leave the country that made them rich…only to end up staying here!
