The “community” may be largely “Republican”, but that does not mean they’re clear-eyed conservatives.
Nor does it even mean that those local elites and “fans” kissing Moore’s prodigious ass were even Republicans to begin with.
More propaganda from the utterly worthless NY Times
Traverse city republican is the epitome of RINO for the most part.
From the article:
‘’We share a desire to have our community thrive, improve the arts and culture, find ways to bring in more jobs,’’ Moore said in an interview. ‘’I really have more common ground with the Republicans in this area than the things we disagree on.’’
But he acknowledged some business and civic leaders were suspicious at first: ‘’They seemed to think I wanted to turn the place into the People’s Republic of Traverse City.’’
‘’I don’t like Michael Moore’s movies. I don’t like his message,’’ said Al Bonney, 65, a Rotary Charities board member. ‘’But I certainly like what he’s done for this town. The guy has shown he’s legit and honest and he believes in serving the community, so he’s OK by me.’’
IMHO, Moore would be ok with as lot of the republicans who still believe more in their community more than they do with trying to protect big business and the wealthy.
parsy, who agrees with some things Moore says and disbelieves others
