Michael Moore Reacts To Wisconsin Union Vote: "This Is War" (video)

Michael Moore is enraged after the Wisconsin State Senate voted to strip public unions of the ability to collectively bargain. Speaking on MSNBC's "Rachel Maddow Show," Moore said "they think they can get away with this."

Moore also calls for a "student walk-out" across the nation on Friday in response to the Wisconsin vote.

"This has to continue day after day and these governors have to step down," Moore declared.

"The rich have committed these crimes and the people will demand your ass is in jail," Michael Moore said with a pair of handcuffs on the set of Maddow's show.

Moore also shocked the audience by telling the rich and bankers that "we have a right to your money!"

I heard the Wisconsin legislature told Moore he is welcome in the car, he just has to ride in the back, because, “We won.”

Michael Moore is an attention whore. He needs to be in the limelight to generate cash. He is a complete phony who says these things in order to get on TV, and since he hasn’t been heard from in a while, he had to do something. I can’t believe that public universities pay him thousands of dollars to for a speaking engagement. What a crock.

He has no beliefs or principles. It’s all about making Michael rich.

Someone should tell Micheal that it’s hard to have a war without guns. I seem to remember a lib making a movie about why people shouldn’t have them.

A student walk-out?!

Don't they pay to be there?

Don't they fail of they walk out?

Daddy won't pay for their school if they fail.

I guess he’s a hypocrite like Gore. (My fav laugh last year was finding out Gore shelled out millions for a seaside condo).

Does he really want to pay 70% taxes like he told OReilly? His spending habits say no.

Send Moore to his dacha on the Black Sea to calm down. The revolution was progressing well without his threats. Haven’t the Bolsheviks seized the capital.

We are seeing the result of 50% of the population not paying taxes, relying on the other 50% for their existence

"Moore calls for student walkout.

"Students missing out on a day of indoctrination at their university".

He also mentioned high schools in his rant.

Can nursery school be far behind?

I believe that spring break in Madison starts this weekend. I guess we will see how many students will cancel their plans and stay. Perhaps this was a factor in the timing?

Student walk out Friday at 2:00? In most of the country, the teachers unions have school let out at 1:00pm so they can start their weekend early to beat traffic.

Does this mean man-bear-pig is going to ignore assault weapons bans for now?

He keeps talking about “the rich.”

The average tax payer is not rich. The tax payers that are rich likely contribute more than their share if they pay income and property taxes.
