An American Carol

My wife and I watched a humorous movie last night. Well, actually, my wife slept through much of it. She was tired. She's been working hard, as usual.

The movie is called An American Carol. It's a funny flick that slams hard on left-wing lunacy.

At the heart of the story is a character by the name of Michael Malone (a parody of wackjob documentary filmmaker Michael Moore) who believes in everything anti-American. He even wants to abolish the fourth of July. Much like Scrooge from A Christmas Carol, Malone is visited by a few spirits (former U.S. greats like JFK, and George Washington) who attempt to save Malone's poor wacked-out leftist soul.

This movie has its comedic moments, no doubt about it. And I love the way it deftly illustrates the utter insanity of extreme leftist ideology and the way it correctly depicts the majority of Americans as flag-wavin', God-fearin', decent human beings. On the downside though, it's just not funny enough for my taste. It too often gets downright silly, crude, and egregiously irreverent. Yet still, all in all, I recommend this show for its overall commonsense message.
