Cenk Uygur, one of liberal radio and TV’s self-designated Young Turks, interviewed corpulent corporation buster Michael Moore. What could go wrong?
Moore: You know, I tell you, these Democrats are disgusting. Wimps and wusses and weasels. You know, get some spine. This is why I have to admire the Republicans. They at least stand for something. They at least have the courage of their convictions. They get elected to office, they come into town, and they go “Get outta my way, there’s a new sheriff in town. This is the way we’re doing things. Get outta here.” And then they do it. You know. I mean what they do is crazy. But dammit, they are good at it. We should take a page out of their book.
It was almost as if Moore realized he had bitten the hand that feeds him, so he quickly took a shot at conservative Glenn Beck.
Cenk: I couldn’t agree more with that. So to finish that thought, if you were, for example, Van Jones, how would you have responded to Glenn Beck?
Moore: Fuck off! That’s what I would have said. But again, you mentioned Glenn Beck, and of course, he’s the guy that’s called for my removal from the planet Earth.
Whew! That’s more like it, Michael. We were worried about you there for a second.
