Micheal Moore "Obama Didn't Save Detroit"

CuteOldGuy's Avatar
Apparently there has been a shortage of Hostess Twinkies, and Michael Moore had a brief session of lucidity. When asked if Obama saved Detroit, Moore answered:

"No, he didn't. He saved General Motors and Chrysler."

"'Detroit' (and Flint and Pontiac and Saginaw)," continued Moore, "are not defined by the global corporations who suck our towns dry and then split town to make more money elsewhere (except, of course, they continued to design and built crap cars, so eventually they didn't make the money at all). These cities in Michigan are about the people who live here, and in the process of 'saving Detroit,' Mr. Obama had to fire thousands of these people, and reduce the benefits and pensions of those who were left."


He continues, and says Romney has a good shot a Michigan. The people there aren't impressed with Obama.

Moore's description sounds like the most corporate of corporate towns - Washington, DC

Even Moore? I've read his books and that's a pretty huge statement from someone that hates the right as bad as he does.

He doesn't like Obama at all, but I'm sure he hates Romney even more. Still, it's a new perspective on the "salvation" of giant corporations by Obama.

I used to think Michael Moore might have a valid message, but I still haven't figured out what the hell it is besides causing general disruption to the establishment.

. . . I think he's just a typical swine who wants to hog the swill.

No sh*t, Cute Old Shit for Brains, so what's your point other than to provide a place for the limited-thinking, like Glenna, IB and the rest of the Tpunk Parrotriots, to waste bandwidth?

Not that it matters, but i think what Michael Moore actually says is a whole lot different than what you say the article says about what Michael Moore says.
