Michael Moore Shocks Us Like an Electric Eel, Reveals Anti-Texan Bigotry

2009 August 25

Michael-Moore-001

Neo-communist filmmaker Michael Moore interviewed about his most recent and most blatantly anti-capitalist film:

THR: Have you ever considered leaving the U.S.?

Moore: Thank you for asking! I had never considered this idea until you mentioned it, and now that you have, it doesn’t sound like such a bad idea! I guess if I were going to live outside the U.S., I would live in Texas.

THR: What’s the No. 1 thing you want to teach your kids?

Moore: Never trust anyone from Texas.

So I guess Moore wouldn’t want his children to trust such left-leaning Texans as Jim Hightower and the late Molly Ivins?

    If the man keeps his mouth open long enough, he’d look anorexic.

    Another pile of wasted human debris. If we could talk Moore into eating Bill Maher doing it in the state of Florida or Texas then we could relieve the world of both these quaking sniviling piles of dog excrement. Also there is no way that Michael Moore could possibly have children. It would be an impossible act for him besides the woman would be dead.

    Bring it on FATBUTT! It’s Bubba here in Dallas. Talk is cheap when you hide behind the door. You are a piece of work alright. I find you all the time walking across my pasture. Of course just like the cow-dung you are easily hosed off!

    Uh, no Mr. Moore. If you want to live outside the US try moving to The People’s Republic of San Francisco…or maybe anywhere in the northeastern corridor. The US is still a Center-Right country and the “real” america consists of the South, the Plains States, and portions of the Midwest. The caviar gobbling, psuedo-intellectual crowd of elitests you run with is NOT the real america.

    Moore continually criticizes the American healthcare system…and he is probably a millionaire by now. However, I find it difficult to trust the opinion of anyone who is as rich as Moore probably is…and looks like he does. I would find it easier to believe what he says if he was about 100 pounds lighter. Seems like he has the Oprah ” back to over 200 + pounds inspite of my millions” syndrome. OOOoooopppss. Sorry…he never got under 200 pounds.

    For readers info. I’m not American.
    I believed that too much democracy will destroy America. You have neo communists like M. Moore and you have terrorists living as Americans right in your homes. George Washington and Abraham Lincoln would surely not recognised America if they were to wake up now. They would certainly regret giving their lives to defend America.

    Oh yeah. If you are a liberal you can say all kinds of hateful remarks about any group or affiliation. Janneane Garofalo can call conservatives racist and her and the majority of the msm can make disgusting homosexual references to our protests that continue today. Kanye west can call George Bush a racist and many called him much worse. Michael Moore, a leftist mouthpiece with nothing but lies can speak poorly of the entire state of Texas despite our state producing 90% of the nations jobs right now and that Texas is fiscally sound with a budget surplus. But any of the conservatives ever mutter a word like that and they must be hanged in a public square. Nothing but hypocrites those liberals are.

    I have a question is David Swindle like the hall monitor here? If so how did he get that posiyion?

    I hate to tell Michael Moore, but the Lone Star State is part of the US of A, and we are proud of who we are. Unlike most of the country, who either came in as victory spoils, or were bought in, Texas (And california) came in through a treaty. We chose to be Americans and even though we have strong feelings against the liberal faction, we are patriotic and love the “old Glory.”

    Somehow, I think that if Michael Moore came to Texas, he’d get the same reception that Cyndi Shehan did. We’d tolerate him, and eventually tell him to leave.

    And folks, like David said, we are supposed to be the grown ups here, and grown ups don’t threaten to kill people, or harm people, we just do what’s right. Grown ups even tolerate idiocy spouted by childish liberals, and then use logic to point out where they are wrong.

    ’nuff said.

    Jack, only those in Washington hound me, the jest is taken in stride for an expletive remains a part of the humorous side of a serious dilemma. Lately, it seems in the White House that a lot of abusive language is spoken as they scramble about trying to make sense of their own policies.

    This is awfully mean-spirited, dehumanizing, and unnecessary. Come on, this is how leftists talk about conservatives. Let’s not stoop to their level and give them ammo to attack us.

    I mean have fun with this stuff, vent, whatever… Just watch it with venting that you want them to kill each other.

    And by making fat jokes you’re basically giving the Left a license to do the same with every overweight conservative.

    A bit of Maherism, I suppose, but quite appropiate in this case. Writing about the the man brings out the best responses at Moores’ playground mentality level.

    Mr. Swindle
    This began because you took an absurd comment regarding Bill Maher that was meant to be absurd because of his blind support of global warming I made snarky pun about him removing his own carbon footprint and you extrapolate that into some one having fantasies of death now that is a desperate reach you were pretty clear you are a fan so you must have been offended just as you took some other comment out of context for your own purposes. Having lived as long as I have and seen so much of death the last thing I want is to see any more. I have also seen petty men that never having had any real power in there lives act as you do patrol the halls of your domain like a minor public functionary screaming you must remain on the red line. As you continue your heavy handiness you will find things getting smaller including yourself. But good luck in your little world.

    I’ll accept your explanation. I’m just concerned with:
    1. Helping protect my publication’s level of integrity.
    2. Keeping these debates at a constructive level.

    If I’m a “fan” of Bill Maher then why do I critique him for his leftist Anti-Americanism ever week, sir? Perhaps our difference here is that you just loath him at an unhealthy degree. I’m referring of course to your extreme comments that he’s worse than violent criminals. I merely just disagree with his politics.

    I haven’t been heavy-handed. Being heavy-handed would have been deleting your comments. All I’ve done is challenge remarks which I’ve found disgusting, extreme, or far out there.

    Regardless, what do you say we bury the hatchet? Your comment on this morning’s DH quote that I selected was excellent. (It appears we have some common ground in our appreciation of his writing.) You’re obviously a passionate man who loves his country. And we need such people as we work to defend the American Idea. Passions just need to be properly channeled into effective directions.

    I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and you’ll try and hold back on the poop jokes and comments that look like you’re talking about leftists killing themselves or each other. Fair deal, my friend?

    Yea please let me wipe away my tears for this vile fat scumbag that has been opposed to any common decency what so ever. Our problem during the Bush administration was just sitting back absorbing the blows from vile leftist. Never again.

  23. August 26, 2009

    I live 45 minutes north of the land of gay liberals. If Mike Moore comes up to Sonoma wants to come up here and spew his leftist bullshit, I will be glad to kick his commie ass all the way back to L.A. or wherever he was spawned. HD.

    I’m NewsReal’s Assistant Managing Editor. And when your comments are embarrassing and immature and fail to really contribute anything of value to the conversation I’m going to call you out for it.

    Leftists sites love to troll conservative sites and pull out extreme quotes that they can use to embarrass us. You do know that don’t you?

    I don’t believe in censorship so it’s not like I’m going to delete your comments. Just try not to give our opponents ammo to shoot at us. Fair deal, my friend?

  25. August 28, 2009

    Good point David. Sometimes one that is hard to remember, but it is very important. The libs are so good at inciting such frustration through their ridicule that it can be easy to come out swinging when we should not.

    On a side note, I am seeing lots of manipulative techniques like the libs posing as conservatives and posting very innapropriate things. The most disturbing is when they make a post that incites violence against another for political reasons. That is starting to happen at an alarming rate. We need to keep our eyes and ears open for this kind of stuff and denounce it right away.

    The liberals are losing and their ways will only get more rabid and more radical. Their plan is not to just roll over and take it. They will go down kicking and screaming. and trying to destroy anything conservative leaning in the process. We are starting to see it with the staged vandalism in Denver, and the fake gun toting protester at the townhalls. I really fear that something worse might happen, so I am warning everyone I know. I suggest we all do the same. A good tactic is to be informed.

    Use video cameras wherever you go and document, document, document. Be careful, stay safe, and never EVER promote any kind of violence whatsoever.

    They are going to shoot at us no matter what. I believe you are the embarassment that wants us to do the same old crap that we have done for years just sit and take it with no response. I was unaware that you had anything to do with managing this blog so I will delete it and unsubscribe. You are as bad as Moore. You are part of the problem. It is time we stop being a catch all for these left wing zealots and I certainly do not need any guidance from you I earned my right to speak my mind with my blood and my flesh. As a matter of fact I do not know how I started receiving this in my email any way. Are you sure you do not work for the DNC? I am done with your qivering ass.

    You won’t be missed. Unlike the vast majority of our commenters who consistently give thoughtful responses you were unable to ever contribute much of value. If you’re going to write disgusting fantasies about killing leftists then you can post your bile somewhere else.

    Being aggressive is fine and necessary, but being so RADICAL that you embarrass yourself and the movement you seek to support is counterproductive. Simple point that true conservatives get.

    Jack, my collegue, we are all mad, but let us not fight amongst ourselves. I don’t always agree with David’s opinion, but respect the fact that civility rules and to want to shoot everyone in Congress might be justified, so to speak, it is not the way to solve our problems. I thought you brought up some good points along the way. Good luck, sir.

    You are also a liar darling I never had fantasies of killing anyone that is the last thing I want but glad I found out the facts about you and your smal gaggle of kiss asses. You knew nothing of Buckely and a piss ant like you has probably never contributed anything to this nation. Your little blog will not last long. Any further comments from you will go to the trash bin. So do not waste your time sweetie. By the way Carter thank you sir and good luck to you I hope you are not hounded because of a jest

    “Another pile of wasted human debris. If we could talk Moore into eating Bill Maher doing it in the state of Florida or Texas then we could relieve the world of both these quaking sniviling piles of dog excrement.”

    What do you call that? I’m not lying about your remarks. You’re fantasizing about Michael Moore cannibalizing Bill Maher. You’re dehumanizing them, calling them human debris and dog excrement. That’s how leftists behave — attacking people instead of attacking arguments.

    You’ve had similar comments on other threads:

    “I do not know of any one that watchs Bill Maher. I am sure some people do friends and family but this phoney should as I have stated before remove his carbon foot print to stop global warming besides that foot is in his nazis mouth.”

    And this comment toward me is just really disgusting:
    “Let us try an experiment you refrain from making comments directed at me and I will reciprocate this way you will have more time to perform Maher’s personal hygene requirements hope you do not have a hook for a hand that might be uncomfortable however if you are really good perhaps you can convince him to transplant his spinchter directly to your lips. Now do have fun with your mud pies.”

    What’s this juvenile fascination with feces? None of our other commenters throw this kind of crap at us.

    I think I’ve proven my point. Your comments are disgusting, immature, and extreme. And you’re unable to see the forest for the trees. I’ve been critiquing Maher for his rhetoric, Anti-Americanism, and deceptions for weeks. And everyone else seems to recognize and support it except you. You’re mad that I don’t embrace your disgusting fecal matter fantasies in my critiques of him. And thus you claim that I’m worse than Michael Moore. Absurd. You embarrass yourself, sir.
