Michael Moore Enjoying Corporate High-Life
NewsMax ^ | 10/31/03 | Limbacher

Posted on 10/31/2003 2:20:40 PM PST by Tumbleweed_Connection

America's most obnoxious corporate critic, Michael Moore, is living high on the hog thanks to the perks two corporations have provided him for the West Coast leg of his book tour.

Moore was flown around California aboard a private jet, reports the San Francisco Chronicle, courtesy of media mega-corporation Time Warner.

And while he wasn't enjoying the corporate high-life at 30,000 feet, he was tooling around the Golden State in the kind of vehicle anti-corporate environmentalists routinely decry as public enemy No. 1 - an SUV paid for by his publisher's corporation, Warner Books.

Moore's man-of-the-people image was further dented when it was revealed that he gladly accepted the protection of several bodyguards, who helped the left-wing crusader keep the unwashed masses at bay.

Asked if his new chairman-of-the-board lifestyle meant he was being hypocritical, Moore told the Los Angeles Times that the only reason he's feeding at the corporate trough is because it's there.

"I would never pay for this," he insisted.

"I would never pay for this," he insisted.

"Because that's where the money is."

They didn't want anyone to get to close to his suitcase full of doughnuts.

What a moron!

One of my favorites came from Arianna Huffington when questioned about taking private jets -- she only took them because they were going somewhere anyway.

Typical. Hypocrisy, for the left it`s a religion. He should get together Bruce 'workingman' Springsteen who lives in Beverly hills and bashes cops every night at his concerts singing his song "41 shots" (Yeah Bruce, 41.. that`s about how many cops are dead for letting guys reach into their coat when asked to freeze. And it ain`t just blacks you moron. I`m white and three times I had cops do the same to me..Hands up, guns on me.. The keyword is SUSPECT and you COOPERATE. Why don`t you blame the perps for once who are making them do that?)and then his asking for the impeachment of Bush every night. Funny, can`t say I can recall him asking the same for Clinton who made Watergate look like childs play

I've never thought much of S'steen's music or his guttural opinions, either.

He will fall because he flaunts himself. He enjoys sticking his con game to everyone especially the ones who allow him too.

Who knew that Michael Moore and ZsaZsa Huffington were the same people!
