It stars Kevin Farley, brother of the late Chris Farley, as a scruffy Michael Moore clone named Michael Malone. 'An American Carol' mixes the narrative of Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" with Fox News fodder.

Zucker’s trademark unvarnished humor
In a scene which shows anti-war protesters chant, “Peace now. We don't care how!” as they carry signs that read:
- End Violence — War Is Not the Answer!
- End Disease — Medicine Is Not the Answer!
- It's Too Dark Outside — The Sun Is Not the Answer!
- Overpopulation — Gay Marriage Is the Answer!
Movie Reviews
Don't expect any good ratings from movie critics because they are nearly all left-leaning liberals.
