Republicans Accuse Micheal Moore of "Voter Bribe"
LANSING, Mich. - Republicans say filmmaker Michael Moore should be prosecuted for offering underwear, potato chips and Ramen noodles to college students in exchange for their promise to vote.


The Michigan Republican Party has asked four county prosecutors to file charges against Moore, charging that his get-out-the-vote stunt amounts to bribery.



"We want everyone to participate in this year's election, but not because they were bribed or coerced by the likes of Michael Moore," said Greg McNeilly, executive director of the state Republican Party.

1. I plan to ignore this
When multi-thousand dollar contributions to politicians from fatcats and corporate donors is considered bribery then I will support investigating Moore for these allegations.

2. Like phantom "tax cuts" aren't a voter bribe?
And "faith based" funding, and "student vouchers" et al ad absurdum?

Fuck the nazi publicans. Their time is up.
