Thank you Mr Lewis Black

WTF Neil Cavuto?!

The DAILY SHOW made me aware of the fact that there is apparently a "SWIRLING CONTROVERSY" surrounding the movie HAPPY FEET.

Sigh. Really?

I haven't seen it, so I can't really defend it right now, but because of the nature of the controversy I am going to go vote with my wallet tonight and support it with some of my hard-earned cash.

Apparently, conservative douche-bags are labeling it "an animated version of AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH." They are also calling it a "shock corridor for kids." It seems the film has some undercurrents about humans and our abuse of the environment and how it's effecting the penguins habitat. The critics seem to be saying that the movie is a wolf in penguin's clothing, as it were. They are declaring from the rooftops that this is dangerous, hippy propaganda masquerading as a harmless kids movie.

This is just silly. Firstly, if the environmental info in this film is really on par with Inconvenient Truth, then its all based on scientific data. This contrived dialogue is just a further attempt to put it into our heads that there is controversy among scientists about what we are doing to our planet. Have you ever noticed that it's scientists with graphs and stats and research and photos that will tell you there is a problem, but that it's unqualified media personalities and even less qualified politicians telling that it's all sunshine and lollipops from here on out? Do they ever have any intelligible reasons? Any graphs or data of any kind? Not usually.

Watch out for phrases like "bad science" and "junk science" and even "good science." These are catch phrases used to get you to subscribe to their point of view and ignore research that says otherwise. There really is no such thing as good or bad science. All research (if done properly) has it's place, but they would have you believe any research that disagrees with their stance is junk.

BOO CNN. BOO Fox News. BOO White House. For Shame.

Oh, and one reporter actually made some comments about the movie pushing the gay agenda as well. To her I would like to point out a little-known scientific fact; penguins are one of the few species that we have documented evidence of homosexual pairings. And they mate for life. Isn't that just adorable?

If you folks can't watch a cartoon about danging frigging penguins without feeling a rush of nauseous homophobia, then maybe you should look around your house for that memo. You know, the memo that says HOLLYWOOD IS OWNED AND RUN BY HIPPIES, JEWS AND FAGS!

I'm sure this mess was an attempt to discourage people from going to see this film, and I'm sure it worked on the brainwashed and like-minded. For this guy, it pushed my butt right into the theatre seat.

Review tomorrow.
