Steven Crowder may be the Michael Moore of the right


Steven Crowder

For years, conservatives have longed for our own Michael Moore — a politically aware documentary filmmaker with brains, talent and a sense of humor — but without Moore’s habit of comparing Islamist terrorists to the Minutemen, fibbing about his stock holdings to maintain his “everyman” image, and larding his “non-fiction” films with lies and half-truths.

Younger, friendlier (and far more telegenic) than his loony left counterpart, Steven Crowder may finally be our “great right hope.”

A self-made YouTube sensation, Crowder built a cult following with his short, funny and perceptive videos (and his personal “thank you’s” to bloggers who link to them). Crowder has recently made the move to the (conservative media) big time, signing up with BigHollywood.com and PJTV.

On Monday, Crowder appeared on Sean Hannity’s show to discuss his latest offerings. One video gave viewers a firsthand look at where those “stimulus dollars” are going: Crowder took his camera to “yacht clubs and hotels and even a skateboard park” that have received millions in taxpayer dollars — and which look like nothing more than littered empty lots.

Crowder’s latest short film depicts his visit to an anti-Obamacare town hall, to witness the “angry mobs” in action. Crowder teases ordinary citizens about their “unAmerican” behavior, and, unable to incite them to violence, winds up beating himself up, a la Fight Club.

Crowder told Hannity that, unlike events “like Woodstock when liberals get together,” the people he met at the town hall rally also “left the place cleaner than they found it.”

    This guy is a bore. At least Michael Moore produces some entertaining movies. I couldn't even get through half a youtube posting from Chowderhead. He's so smug and self-righteous.

    Crowder Crap can't even speak French properly. He should go back to Toronto, Canada. I was going to say where he belongs but they don't want him there either and understand why. Crowder Crap classifies himself as a stand up comedian. He's not even close. He does entertain the racist faction of the U.S. with his comedy. The humour he performs is the kind bullies do to little kids on the playground. Who ever says Crowder talks about real issues is delusional and should consider taking a critical thinking class or freakin just pick up a book on the subject. StevenCrowder Moron says the health care system in Canada is broken and we should take his word as fact. Please bitch get a blues clue and don't listen to this idiot. HealthCare in Canada is working. Read the statistics. The U.S. at the least needs a public option to make healthcare affordable and give the insurance pricejackers real competition. Let's take the insurance middle man taking 30% (60Billion in profits)out of the equation.

    "This guy is a bore. ....He's so smug and self-righteous."

    Exactly what I think of Mr. Moore.
