When I last checked the Hamburglar was not trying to set his shoe on fire to serve me a Really, Really Unhappy Meal....they want to come back. For more apple pie.

Geez, is Michael Moore still alive?

Does anyone care?

His juvenile attempt to grab attention on 9/11 is pathetic and grasping. Have a good life, Mr. Moore. I long ago learned not to read anything you write, watch anything you film, or listen to anything you say.

And I have missed nothing.

Just imagine how many large bags of dog food Michael Moore could be processed into!!

On the other hand, maybe we should think of him in terms of pig food.

how about they build the mosque in the gated community he lives in. After all that is the left's America

Strange person. I can't figure out whether he's sincerely stupid or just a cynical exploiter. He seems to be somewhat good at his craft. His first big movie, Roger and Me, was his version of playing Cindy Sheehan: "I demand an audience with someone who has no reason to give me one!" He seemed in on the joke there and has tended to be somewhat in on it ever since.

Trust me, life and oxygen and water and comfy pillows and pink ponies have filled far more people than terrorists. We have several category errors here, and he seems to know it and enjoy the way he's fooling his audience, but I can't be sure.

Liberal loony logic from a fat pig who looks like he has never passed a McDonald's without stopping to get super-sized.

Chef Mojo said...

Hey, now we know where Garage, Robert Cook, etc., are getting their talking points. I guess Mikey got a bit out in front of the meme, so, c'mon GM & RC! Get with it! New meme! Run with it!

I mean, if you're gonna be a Mikey Moore bitch, may as well go all the way.

wv: tuffi - Yeah that's a tuffi; Michael Moore trying to pull his head out of his ass long enough to oxygenate his pea brain.

Skyler said...

What a complete an utter piece of filth that man is.

Chef Mojo said...

Give it to Mikey! He'll eat anything!

Don't you dare point out the fact that Mikey Moore is a corpulent tub of rancid lard. After all, he's a poor victim of the evil corporate thugs at McDonald's.

Hey, lefties! You own this piece of shit! Be proud!

Not worth my attention.

I was two miles away from the WTC on 9/11.

I watched 3,000 fellow New Yorkers die.

For six weeks afterward I could smell burning flesh and I heard the dead shrieking.

God bless their tortured souls.

MB said...

Ironic that a person who want to legalize drugs also wants to outlaw hamburgers and fries.

How many lives have been lost and families destroyed due to drugs?

Ah, freedom of choice for your poison, as long as it is politically correct.

Penny said...

"Give it to Mikey! He'll eat anything!"

Ha ha

TRUE!

Come on now...face it! We all got a little bit of "Mikey" in us.

Here, just because it needs to be said:

Fuck Michael Moore.

KCFleming said...

In a brief fit of altruism, Mr. Moore permitted a small rural village in India to capture his colonic methane, burning which generated sufficient power to light 200 homes and power 10 refrigerators.

But he soon tired of the apparatus needed for collection and, more importantly, found that he missed the smell of his own farts, and abandoned the project.


Just think of these statements in the same way, that of wallowing in his own odor, and enjoying himself immensely.

Imagine what Michael Moore would say if the Department of Justice announced the "Reno Initiative," a plan to build an ATF Training Facility in the vicinity of Waco, Texas.

(Fictional plan, of course.)

MnMark said...

The 9/11 muslim terrorist attacks were one of the worst things that ever happened to Michael Moore, because it made it appear that there are actual non-Americans who are bad and a danger to us. It flew in the face of Moore's belief that it is Americans that cause the problems in the world. And ever since 9/11 he's been using every stupid moral equivalence argument in the book to try to say that no, Republicans and McDonalds and GM are much, much worse that muslims that murder people. How filled with hate for traditional America do you have to be to have these kinds of hateful moral equivalencies even come to mind, much less publicly broadcast them?

The ninth anniversary of that atrocity, and what Michael Moore has to say to mark the occasion is the equivalent of "9/11 was nothing...McDonalds is much worse." What a repulsive man.

Anonymous said...

This guy made a whole movie to cash in on 9/11. This sort of behavior was not considered Bad at the time, though it has since become so.

KCFleming said...

Moore is a WTF Training Facility in the vicinity of Lonewacko.

TWM said...

Michael Moore and those like him are dog shit. We wouldn't even notice them if we didn't step in them occasionally and have to wipe our shoes.

Kensington said...

"Fuck Michael Moore.

How?

No big trick to fucking Michael Moore. Pick a fold and have at it.

Penny said...

In my next life I shall come back as President of Accountants, in charge of tallying up "the hate".

I will demand piece rates for my "haters".

Anonymous said...

michael moore? yawn...

Penny said...

Of course, being the good business person that I am...I will set up my brother in the business of tallying up "the lovers".

He will be paid by the hour to make it worth his while, and mine...if only to get him off my back.

Rialby said...

This is the same Michael Moore who was feted at the DNC in 2004, right?

The one who put out a movie that was a mainstream version of "Loose Change", right? That was the movie that ahole Democrats walked out of and announced a brilliant piece of work, no?

Democrats should be proud he's still out there representing you.

Synova said...

"Weighs in" huh.

Penny said...

OK, so eventually, my bro gets to talking with one of those "haters", and decides he is tallying up for the wrong team. "Haters" make more money, dammit!

He wants to meet to discuss this at the McDonald's at Ground Zero...and me? I like burgers and my bro, so I go.

blake said...

It's not true. (Setting aside the idea that McDonald's kills anyone--well, I heard they put out a hit on the Burger King but I don't think actually did him in. And he's just a figurehead, anyway. The Burger Prince is ready to step in.)

But McDonald's, in its whole history, compared to radical Islam--over the same period of years?

I don't think so.

What's more? Nobody enjoys death by terrorism. McDonald's doesn't rape anyone. McDonald's doesn't destroy priceless works of art. McDonald's doesn't knock down buildings. McDonald's doesn't demand to not be ridiculed under threat of death.

Etc.

Stupid ass.

Methadras said...

What did the hamburgler say to the terrorists?

Rubble, rubble.

Fen said...

This guy made a whole movie to cash in on 9/11.

Beth will be along any minute now with contempt for those "crass" celebs who exploit 9-11...

Any minute now... she's just fine-tuning her takedown.

Soon.

Kensington said...

"This is the same Michael Moore who was feted at the DNC in 2004, right?"

Yes! They gave him a seat of honor right next to Jimmy Carter, for crying out loud! They treated him like a rock star.

And when someone asked Carter what his favorite movie was, that SOB smiled and said "Fahrenheit 9/11."

Penny said...

So there I am at Ground Zero with my now hateful brother...AND no McDonalds? WTF? Now I am feeling equally hateful...and we haven't even said "hello".

sonicfrog said...

Actually, in a demented sort of way, I think it's kinda funny.... kinda.

gk1 said...

What an asshole, I can't wait for Michael Moore to have a stroke and die. This 280 lbs of dogshit stuffed into a paper bag shouldn't be commenting on anything health related, seriously.

Clyde said...

Get thee to a fat farm, Michael Moore!

Hypocritical douchebag!

Revenant said...

McDonald's has killed zero people, so far as I can tell.

Obesity has killed a lot of people prematurely. But McDonald's doesn't cause obesity; overeating does.

jamboree said...

No, big fat pigs who can't control their eating - like michael moore - have killed themselves, not McDonalds.

God, he's no different than that freak preacher who wanted to burn the Quran.

AllenS said...

The Huffington Post is a perfect place for Michael Moore to have his ideas displayed. He fits right in. I'll bet that most readers of that web site agree with him.

Bill said...

@Methadras

We have a winner. Spit my soda on that one.

Damon said...

There is so much wrong with his logic besides blasting Micky D's. Why is he and the times so he'll bent on pronouncing America's hatred of Muslims. Simply isn't true.

What's their motive?

jr565 said...

Of course, Michael "There Is No Terrorist Threat" Moore would say McDonalds has killed far more people than the terrorists. Because he literally doesn't believe in terorrists. Because he reflexively sides with murderers against this country. This is the same guy that called the Iraqi insurgency (the ones chopping off peoples heads and setting up car bombs to kill us and other Iraqis, not to setup a democracy but to prevent one from being formed).
THis is the same guy who said "If someone did this (9/11) to get back at Bush, then they did so by killing thousands of people who DID NOT VOTE for him! Boston, New York, D.C., and the planes' destination of California -- these were places that voted AGAINST Bush!” as if Al Qaeda were liberals similarly outraged that Bush stole the election. HE was the same guy who said that AFGHANISTAN was a war for a proposed pipeline (which would make Obama an neocon warmonger for escalating a war). Not only was he against the diversion from the war on terror, he was against the real war on terror too.
He's nothing but an arrogant fat, smug, communist bastard, who gets rich off of capitalism then pretends he is a socialist to sell more books.
Of course he would declare McDonalds as killers, since it meets with hsi anti corporate agenda, but also points out his endless hypocricy as he is probably one of McDonalds biggest customers, what with his endless girth and jowls of blubber.

William said...

It's fitting that he closes with a quotation from Brecht. Brecht did everything possible to ridicule and discredit the Weimar Republic. Nobody wanted to defend the Weimar Republic because of the efforts of people like Brecht. The Weimar Republic: What could possibly be worse?....Brecht's efforts to undermine the Third Reich were not as successful. More notably, Brecht went on to spend the last years of his life supporting and praising the East German worker's paradise.....Moore does not have the genius of Brecht, but he has the same kind of anti-bourgeoise bigotry.....

"'Fuck Michael Moore.'"

"How?"

Roll him in flour and aim for the wet spot.

gloogle said...

I don't normally comment here, but....

Fuck this fucking asshole.

Famous Original Mike said...

Fuck that horrible piece of subhuman garbage.

Chris said...

Maybe Moore would have a point if McDonalds employees flung acid in the faces of female customers who entered their establishments immodestly dressed.

R.L. Hunter said...

What Moore doesn't want to admit is if I eat at McDonalds until my arteries clog and I die, that is MY CHOICE.

The people at the WTC DID NOT CHOOSE to die that day.

Unknown said...

Terrorists (Writers, Authors, Bookreaders, Bookwriters, ...) are killing themselve. McDonalds is making money Baby :-)

Unknown said...

I think I saw 911 from that McDonalds (1990/1991). I asked my father to get a Juniortuete with Cheeseburger NOT with Hamburger ( https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamburger_(Begriffskl%C3%A4rung) - 2ND:-) and I got ...
now those baggages are called Happy Meals :-P
