Morning in
America …a note from Michael Moore
Wednesday,
November 7th, 2012
Congratulations
everyone!!
This
country has truly changed, and I believe there will be no going back. Hate lost
yesterday. That is amazing in and of itself. And all the women who were elected
last night! A total rebuke of Neanderthal attitudes.
Now the
real work begins. Millions of us – the majority – must come together to insist
that President Obama and the Democrats stand up and fight for the things we
sent them there to do. Mr. President, do not listen to the pundits who today
call for you to “compromise.” No. You already tried that. It didn’t work. You
can compromise later if you need to, but please, no more beginning by
compromising. And if the Republican House doesn’t want to play ball, do a
massive end run around them with one executive order after another – just like
they have done and will do if given the chance again.
We have to
have Obama’s back. As he is blocked and attacked by the Right, we need to be
there with him. We are the majority. Let’s act like it.
And please
Mr. President, make the banks and Wall Street pay. You’re the boss, not them.
Lead the fight to get money out of politics – the spending on this election is
shameful and dangerous. Don’t wait til 2014 to bring the troops home – bring
‘em home now. Stop the drone strikes on civilians. End the senseless war on
drugs. Act like a pit bull when it comes to climate change – ignore the nuts,
and fix this now. Take the profit motive out of things that any civilized
country would say, “this is for the common good.” Make higher education
affordable for everyone and don’t send 22-year-olds out into the world already
in massive debt. Order a moratorium on home foreclosures and evictions. Enact
economic policy that will create good-paying jobs and spend the money that’s
needed to do that. Make your second term one for the history books.
Finally,
thanks must be given to the Occupy movement who, a year ago, set the tone of
this election year by getting everyone to talk about the 1% vs. 99%. It
inspired Obama and his campaign to realize that there was a huge popular
sentiment against what the wealthy have done to the country and there was
something wrong if just 400 rich guys owned more than 160 million Americans combined (all those moochers and bums). This led to Romney’s “47%” remarks and THAT
was the beginning of the end of his campaign. Thank you Mother Jones for
releasing that secret tape, and thank you to the minimum wage worker who placed
a camera on the serving buffet next to the candle. This morning’s headline in
the Washington Post says it all: “At Romney headquarters, the defeat of the 1percent.” Thank you Sandra Fluke for enduring the insults hurled at you and
then becoming an important grassroots leader against the war on women. Thank
you Todd Akin for…well, for just being you. Thank you CEOs of Chrysler and GM
for coming out forcefully against the Republican(!) candidate, saying he lived
in “some parallel universe” when he lied about Jeep. Thank you Governor
Christie for your new bromance with Obama. You know, you really didn’t have to!
And you,
Mother Nature, with all your horrific damage, death and destruction you caused
last week, you became, ironically, the undoing of a Party that didn’t believe
in you or your climate changing powers.
Perhaps
they’ll believe now.
Once again,
thanks to all of you who brought a nonvoter to the polls. In a last minute
effort to get Obama an extra million votes he wasn’t counting on, I enjoyed
talking and texting with your loved ones and friends yesterday who weren’t
going to vote – but then changed their minds after a little nudge and some TLC
(“Damn! Michael Moore? I’m getting in to car right now to go vote.”).
To my
fellow Americans, I think you’ll agree: it was nice to wake up this morning in
the United States of America.
Yours,
Michael

"... GW: Okay.
That’s wonderful. Now, I was going to ask this question earlier, but since it
appears to be tied into what you have just shared, Michael, I think I’ll go to
this question.
One of the
states that was hit hard was the state of New Jersey. The governor of that
state, Chris Christie, is a Republican and has historically been a very strong
and very vocal critic of Obama. Yet in the last week he has been showering
praise to no end upon Obama, and doing it publicly.
I don’t
wish to spend much time on this, but is this merely two humans demonstrating
their true humanity ahead of politics, or is this potentially a sign connected
to a larger change that will unfold within the political structures?
AAM: It is
actually both. It is a governor seeing and moving away from simple rhetoric and
the rhetoric of party politics, of alignment in terms of self-interest and the
desire for power, to a place of actually entering into his own humanitarian
heart and seeing that the reason that he got involved in the political arena in
the first place wasn’t for reasons of power or greed or control.
It brought
him back to his own first principles, which was he really cared about people.
He really cared about people within his geographic area, the state. And then
what he has witnessed and what he has seen is that there is a camaraderie with
the President and that in fact there is no difference and, the rhetoric aside,
that they both care about the same things.
But in the
bigger picture, as you have asked, what you are also seeing is that people are
going to put away many of the labels. There has been a huge emphasis on labels,
rather, “I am this,” “I am that,” whether it is political power or not. The
shift is to, “I am a human. I am a galactic human. I am part of my community. I
am part of this family,” and the need for the labels is dissipating.
Because
when you see someone drowning, whether it is emotionally, physically or
mentally, you do not call out and say, “What is your political affiliation?” Do
you? No, from the core of your heart and from your physical body you reach out
your hand and you assist however you can. And that in fact is exactly what the
gate-keepers, the showers of the way, are doing. They are reaching out their
hands and helping others to a higher realm, to a different understanding.
So what you
are seeing is a catalyst, yes, a very dramatic — what one would say — very
devastating catalyst that is opening people’s hearts. ...."
