Recently a wealthy Chicago couple named Drobney announced their plan to bankroll a left-wing talk radio station. They needn’t bother: the Left already has a multimedia star… and even without a radio station, he’s bigger than Rush, has more fans than O’Reilly, and sells books faster than Coulter. Followers plead with this “folk hero for the American people” to run for president. Reviewers compare him to Twain, Voltaire, and Swift. Unlike Rush and company, the appeal of this blue-collar megastar extends far beyond the hoi polloi. Hollywood and Manhattan agents wave gazillion-dollar contracts in front of his face. He wins prestigious awards that will never grace the Limbaugh or O’Reilly dens… Oscars, Emmys, Writer’s Guild Awards, and jury prizes at Cannes (where his latest movie received a record 13-minute standing ovation). People stop him on the streets of Berlin, Paris, and London… where, according to Andrew Collins of the Guardian, they consider him “the people’s filmmaker.”
Folk hero for the American people?
I’m an American and he is no hero of mine folk or otherwise.
Michael Moore has done nothing except twist the truth at every possible opportunity and throw his fictional spin on reality in order to create the myths that he shoves down people’s throats like yesterdays leftovers. The sad thing is there are those who care so little about our nation, our leader, the situation in the United States and around the world that they would rather gain their political insight from Hollywood than to pick up a newspaper or watch a news program in order to make a decision for themselves.
