...of über-leftist fat fuck Michael Moore, who has never served a single day in the military, channelling R. Lee Ermey in describing how he'd motivate the President and Congress on a daily basis:
Consequently, Moore later implored President Barack Obama to "replace Rahm with me." He subsequently offered to serve as chief of staff for $1 a day, while living in the White House basement.
"Now, don't get too giddy with excitement over my offer, because you and I are going to be up at 5 in the morning, 7 days a week and I am going to get you pumped up for battle every single day," Moore continued.
Continued Moore: "Each morning you and I will do 100 jumping jacks and you will repeat after me: THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ELECTED ME, NOT THE REPUBLICANS, TO RUN THE COUNTRY! I AM IN CHARGE! I WILL ORDER ALL OBSTRUCTIONISTS OUTTA MY WAY! IF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DON'T LIKE WHAT I'M DOING THEY CAN THROW MY ASS OUT IN 2012. IN THE MEANTIME, I CALL THE SHOTS ON THEIR BEHALF! NOW, CONGRESS, DROP AND GIVE ME 50!!"
Michael, if you're going to act like a Marine drill instructor, how about running some of that lard off your fat body and then attend the boot camp down in Parris Island? Then I might just be prepared to think that you're entitled to act that way around adults.
h/t Big Hollywood.

I'm no fan of Michael Moore, but I do enjoy how easily he can get y'all's dander up. As for irony, I seem to recall our troops being questionably sent into harm's way by duty-shirkers of the highest order.
@wally: both sides avoided service during that time period, but only one side made a habit of spitting on veterans and calling them "baby-killers." And if you're going to avoid service there are honorable ways and dishonorable ways; entering the Texas Air National Guard is an honorable way, fleeing into Canada a dishonorable way. Cheney did indeed dodge the draft; Donald Rumsfeld, the SecDef during Bush's term, served in the Navy Reserve from 1957-1975, so it's hard to classify him as a shirker.
I'd love to see that fat fuck Moore try to do a hundred jumping jacks, then I could piss on his grave.
Bob: entering the Texas Air National Guard and then fucking off instead of serving may fit your definition of honorable, but not mine.
Apples and oranges, Bob. I'm talking about Presidents and Vice Presidents. Save your "baby-killer" rhetoric for the next tea party.
Why do right-wingers love to piss on people's graves? Sounds kinda perverted to me.
@wally: you don't get an Honorable Discharge from the National Guard if you "fucked off," Wally. Don't pretend otherwise.
You'll be happy to know that there is now a coffee party you can join, but unlike that spontaneous movement, the coffee party seems to be manufactured out of whole cloth, its "founder" a former NY Times employee and Obama campaign volunteer. *cough*(astroturf)*cough*
Getting an honorable discharge is not the same as behaving honorably, especially if you're the scion of a powerful family. The facts have been known for years. Don't pretend otherwise.
To my knowledge, the Coffee Party was created with tongue mildly in cheek, and has never claimed to be a grass roots phenomenon. Do you have evidence to the contrary, or is this another swing of the famed cutlass at a phantom?
Bush served his country in a military organization. Reviewing the Wikipedia entry on his service, I see no crimes he committed nor any behavior problems other than those that any young man might engage in. How you infer this to indicate dishonorable behavior is beyond me; what "facts" are you referring to? If it is the forged Killian documents that CBS tried to use to smear Bush in 2004, don't waste my time, OK? And how you equate Bush's service with running like a yellow coward to Canada is beyond me, but moral equivalence arguments are the stock in trade of the devoted leftist.
If the coffee party was created "with tongue mildly in cheek," then your knowledge is greater than mine. The Wikipedia entry and the coffee party website mention no satirical motive, and seem motivated only in offering a liberal equivalent to the Tea Party. While the coffee party may not have "claimed to be a grass roots phenomenon," it certainly seems to have been presented as such by the MSM, rather than as the artificial construct that it most certainly is.
(off to bed now, any further replies will be late this evening).
You go too far, Bob. Nowhere do I equate Bush's service with "running like a yellow coward to Canada." And I'm growing weary of carrying the burden of the entire evil left wing in my conversations with you. I'm not an automaton who mindlessly spouts "moral equivalence arguments."
i'm not used to monitoring the mainstream media, so I did some searching on the web for mentions of the Coffee Party. I finally found a CNN video and a Washington Post article. Both clearly identify the founder and her affiliations. Neither claims it to be a grassroots movement. I may have erred in assuming it was mildly tongue-in-cheek. They seem fairly earnest.
Let me go back and make this point more clearly: I don't believe George Bush is a dishonorable man. I don't believe he served his country dishonorably. The term I used in my original comment was "shirker". I do believe this: choosing the National Guard during this period (and I was there) was widely seen as a way of avoiding the draft. Consequently, the waiting lines were quite long. Strings would have had to be pulled to get to the head of the line. In addition, contemporary accounts by fellow guardsmen indicate that Bush was kind of erratic in his attendance, which in a more formal branch of service would have been considered being AWOL.
I won't "waste your time" on this subject any more, Bob. I think we've made our respective positions clear.
@wally: you're right, obviously, and I apologize if I offended. We very quickly got off the track of my main point, which was that I found it ironic that a fat slob like Michael Moore was making noises like a Marine drill instructor, talking of doing 100 jumping jacks; such an effort would probably cause him to have a coronary.
