Notes About The Poem

TWINS of DECEPTION

The Lies of Michael Moron

The Lies of Michael Moron

Among the left and the delusional
He is the unsung hero
As long as you don’t fact check
And live in a world called reality

An advocate who lies and twists statistics
I invite the man
Go live in Cuba
With no money

He is a multimillionaire
Pulling the wool over the poor
And uneducated
Need I tell you Moore?

These days we expect politicians to lie and steal
When I see environmentalists and advocates doing far worse
It makes me sick
To think they profiting from slick propaganda's’ tricks

He reminds me of a hybrid of
Trump, Clinton, Suzuki and the preacher
Called Jimmy Baker
A snake oil salesman

Would have higher standards



Notes: He claims Cuba and Canada have better healthcare than the USA, well I invite him, come here, or go to Cuba, with out his millions made from lying and deceiving people, and give that a try. I have been all over all three countries, and let me tell you, he is completely wrong. You have to be delusional to think Cuba has better healthcare, they have trouble feeding their own people, there, and everyone is equal, equally poor that is.
I actually worked with a brain surgeon from Cuba, who, on his vacation drove a taxi to make more money in 2 weeks than he did all year. The stories he told me of shortages and lack of care was horrific.

In Canada, we have free healthcare, except when is not free and you have to pay, oh my, confusing yes? It sure is, yes many services are free, and many are not. However, what is the point of free if the waiting list is 2 years and you will die in 3 months? In some parts of Canada, over 1000 patients leave the emergency rooms of hospitals a day, because of the waiting times. A boy with a finger cut off waits 18 hours to see a doctor. And on and on I could go.

Hello, dear. I can feel the angst in what you write. My life would have been much different now if Canada had accepted our immigration bit when I was younger. Dad being the honest man that he is....he mentioned in the forms that my other had MS, and that was it. We were refused. I have a Canadian sis-in-law...my step-mom has Canadian citizenship as does my brother...and I know that what you are writing of the health care is true. You want an eternity for that much needed appointment...Hugs, dear

Dear Arthur Got your comment, and yes I'm doing much better I had a few set backs but I'm a fighter, but I don't do marathons YET, OMG. I'm going to try and be on more often now, starting tomorrow, hope you are well. It's cold here, But I'm making progress on alot of fronts, they won't let me go back to work and I really miss the people there. I'm a social animal most of the time, and although the managers are a pain, I love most of the people there, anyway, wanted to touch basis, cheri

It looks as if no one can be trusted anymore. We need more angry people like you to point us in the right direction. Too many are like sheep, hypnotised by what they see on T.V.

I am not angry, nor the angry type, just when I see some say things completely false, speak out. Never be a silent one! Hugs!

I like it Arthur. HE lies to build up fame. It is a tactic used by many to gain wealth and fame abusing the honesty and loving nature of the under educated.

Yes, and he for sure lied, when he claimed Disney would not distribute his film. They had advised him a year earlier, and for completely different reasons, yet he chose to be a silent one and only spoke out days before the films release, already agreed too by Lionsgates films. Pure propaganda.

Good poem, Moore and Trump just telling the masses what they want to hear. And Trump going to put a leash on China, right, when they buy a lot of our debt. I was not surprised by Cuba, but what you said about Canada, I did not know.

Thanks Andrea, it depends what province one is from, and some services are great here, however others are not, Quebec has a population of about 8 million and 2 million can not find a family doctor.
