Moore: Democrats are 'going to get an ass-whoopin' of biblical proportions'

Moore: Democrats are 'going to get an ass-whoopin' of biblical proportions' By Tony Romm - 03/07/10 09:08 AM ET Liberal filmmaker Michael Moore on Sunday railed on Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel, predicting, "Democrats on Election Day 2010 are going to get an ass-whoopin' of biblical proportions if things don't change right now."

In an open letter to the White House, Moore placed the blame for Democrats' dismal electoral prospects in 2010 squarely on the shoulders of Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel, recently a popular target for liberals dissatisfied with the White House's handling of healthcare.

While Moore praised the sitting chief of staff for long being a "no apologies, take-no-prisoners fighting machine," he ultimately said Emanuel had "turned into a fighter -- not of Republicans, but of the left."

"Well, you and the Democrats have been in charge now for over a year and not one banking regulation has been reinstated. We don't have universal health care. The war in Afghanistan has escalated. And tens of thousands of Americans continue to lose their jobs and be thrown out of their homes," Moore wrote.

"You're such a good guy, Mr. President," Moore added. "Yet, you kept on saying you still believed in bipartisanship. Well, if you really want bipartisanship, just go ahead and let the Republicans win in November. Then you'll get all the bipartisanship you want."

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!!"

Don’t worry Mikey ... Obama is on his way to being the “most excellent, messianic, amazing, thoughtful, smart, well spoken, nice guy” one term President in US history.

The Obama/Moore team will become the Laural & Hardy comedy team. The lines out of the White House will be, “Now look what you’ve made me do... Sorry Ollie.”

Mmmmmmmm.........Moore forgot to mention all the Kennedy's dropping out of politics.

Ohaha is going down in history as a Camelot killer.

Mikey seems not to have mastered the balance of powers concept. No wonder he loves Fidel so much.

This is what is driving Nancy Pelosi.
When you surround yourself with only like-minded people, you really think everyone else is loonie.

Keep it up Moore, you are the best conservative recruter we could find.

Oh please, Obama, place Moore in as White House Chief of Staff.

I can’t think of much more than would finish off the liberal Democrats.

I think Moore has just unwittingly revealed the real cause of the Hatian and Chilean earthquakes.

*** Moore forgot to mention all the Kennedy's dropping out of politics. ***

Fatso Moore also forgot in his offer to Ohaha that as Chief of Staff it is required to Bathe, Shave, and get a Haircut more than once a year so he doesn't look like a dirty stinking Wino / Hobo.

When I was a kid there were people like Moore who 'lived' in a little stand of trees by the RR Tracks 1½ blocks from my house. They'd stay for one night then hop a freight train out of Chi at dawn. . So that's my guess why he'd like to live in the WH Basement -- his father was a Wino & Hobo and deep down he wants to be like daddy.

(we rarely saw them, just their [cough] bodily remains [cough], empty soup cans and wine bottle)

Could Michael Moore do 10 jumping jacks?

Maybe split over twenty sessions.

Ohaha is losing bigtime. The WH's lack of political savvy is glaringly on display. There was talk the WH refused to give Coakley money to take a poll---which would have showed she was losing to Scott Brown---and killed Camelot. I never tire of recounting the huge WH flop last Nov in NJ. So here goes.

The Ohaha WH micromanaged the NJ incumbent Dem's gubernatorial campaign. The NY Times reported:
(a) incumbent Dem Gov Corzine's aides gave the WH daily briefings.
(b) every TV ad the NJ Dem put on the air was being screened by Obama's WH team.
(c) Obama’s pollsters took over for Corzine’s polling team.
(d) White House operatives were on the ground for internal strategy sessions.
(e) White House operatives were orchestrating secret pep rallies with Latinos to get the illegal vote.
(f) Ohaha campaigned in NJ three times, Biden twice. Ohaha TV ads ran relentlessly in costly NY media markets.

WH know-it-alls had Ohaha and Biden campaigning in NJ incessantly----Ohaha only went to MA once but that was enough to lose the race.

The NJ race considered a "squeaker" was declared for the Pubbie 2 hours after the polls closed. Coakley conceded 45 min after they closed.

Other pertinent facts:

>> Incumbent Dem Jon Corzine (the wealthy loser) outspent the Repub winner about 4-1.
>> New Jersey has a huge Democratic registration.
>> Corzine bragged he had 20,000 paid union helpers on the ground election day to get out the vote.
>> There was a third party candidate siphoning off Republican votes.
>> Corzine had the power of incumbency.
>> Corzine had the power of a crooked Democrat Machine cooking the vote.
>> Ohaha hid $17.5 BILLION stimlulus in New Jersey.....for Corzine's reelection campaign.

And still Corzine lost. The Repub winner publicly declared victory 2 hours after the polls closed (in what was supposed to be a "squeaker.")

In Mass, Coakley conceded 45 min after the polls closed.

THE UPSHOT According to Ohaha's slimy Press Secretary, Robert Gibbs, Ohaha was "busy with other matters" election night and "wasn't really concerned" with NJ's election results... an indication the WH was sucking up valium and vodka in order to anesthetize themselves from the aftermath.....trying to convince themselves the election was not a referendum on Obama.

The day Michael Moore does 100 jumping jacks will be the day his valet calls 911 to haul his cardiac-arrested fat ass to the hospital.

Moore is totally irrelevant, he made his $$$ and now he thinks he is an authority and that people *naturally* want to hear him opine about this and that, basically he has evolved into a white trash version of Roger Ebert.

I see Mr Moore manged to flunk every single Civics class he ever took. His comments here demonstrate a less then infantile understanding of how politics in a Constitutional Republic works.

“Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream.

TRI CARE FOR LIFE This from a google search:

http://economicspolitics.blogspot.com/2009/05/tricare-for-life-is-obama-trying-to.html

This option would help reduce the costs of TFL, as well as costs for Medicare, by introducing minimum out-of pocket requirements for beneficiaries. Under this option, TFL would not cover any of the first $525 of an enrollee’s cost-sharing liabilities for calendar year 2011 and would limit coverage to 50 percent of the next $4,725 in Medicare cost sharing that the beneficiary incurred. (Because all further cost sharing would be covered by TFL, enrollees could not pay more than $2,888 in cost sharing in that year.) http://www.cbo.gov/ftpdocs/99xx/doc9925/12-18-HealthOptions.pdf

By Rick Maze - Staff writer, Oct 7, 2009

Tricare fee increases imposed last week by the Defense Department will be repealed by a provision of the compromise 2010 defense authorization bill unveiled Wednesday by House and Senate negotiators.

The fee increases were announced on Sept. 30 and took effect on Oct. 1, but the defense bill, HR 2647, includes a provision barring any fee increases until the start of fiscal 2011.

Retired Army Maj. Gen. Bill Matz, president of the National Association for Uniformed Services, said the announcement of fee increases was shocking considering that the Obama administration promised earlier this year to hold off on any new fee Tricare fee increases until fiscal 2011.

“President Obama and DoD assured NAUS and the entire military family earlier this year that there would rightly be no increases in any Tricare fees” in fiscal 2010, Matz said. “We took them at their word, and I can’t believe that a co-pay increase like this was allowed to go forward,” he added.
