Michael Moore Has An Opinion!

thumbnail icon: Michael Moore Has An Opinion!

In case you have been waiting to hear who Michael Moore endorses before making your decision...and you live in Pennsylvania (or Indiana, or I guess North Carolina but let's be serious) where your inability to make a decision still matters, oh and you're a Democrat or a moderate or independent leaning towards the Democrats, THE WAIT IS OVER:

I haven't spoken publicly 'til now as to who I would vote for, primarily for two reasons: 1) Who cares?; and 2) I (and most people I know) don't give a rat's ass whose name is on the ballot in November, as long as there's a picture of JFK and FDR riding a donkey at the top of the ballot, and the word "Democratic" next to the candidate's name.

Seriously, I know so many people who don't care if the name under the Big "D" is Dancer, Prancer, Clinton or Blitzen. It can be Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Barry Obama or the Dalai Lama.

Well, that sounded good last year, but over the past two months, the actions and words of Hillary Clinton have gone from being merely disappointing to downright disgusting. I guess the debate last week was the final straw. I've watched Senator Clinton and her husband play this game of appealing to the worst side of white people, but last Wednesday, when she hurled the name "Farrakhan" out of nowhere, well that's when the silly season came to an early end for me. She said the "F" word to scare white people, pure and simple. Of course, Obama has no connection to Farrakhan. But, according to Senator Clinton, Obama's pastor does -- AND the "church bulletin" once included a Los Angeles Times op-ed from some guy with Hamas! No, not the church bulletin!

You know, for all his failings as a propagandistic browbeater, Moore can still put a couple sentences together to make an interesting argument. You should read the entire essay, it's worth it. Personally, I'm still casting my lot with the Blitzen-Mickey Mouse ticket, but he makes some solid points. Anyway, after the jump, Barack Obama promises to enslave the white race (I'm pretty sure that's what he says) on The Daily Show last night. Vote or die, guys.
