Moore's Underwear Crimes

This is too much.

The Michigan Republican Party has asked prosecutors in 4 counties to prosecute Michael Moore for “buying votes.” The basis for their complaint? Moore has been committing Michigan college students to vote while handing out free “clean underwear” and Tostidos on campuses.

The county prosecutors have predictably rejected the MRP’s requests. One county prosecutor stated "Although we are a small prosecutor's office, we are extremely busy prosecuting serious criminal activity...I choose to devote our resources to prosecuting those who are delivering cocaine to our young people rather than underwear."

Moore himself responded, "It's ironic that Republicans have no problem with allowing assault weapons out on our streets, yet they don't want to put clean underwear in the hands of our slacker youth,"

I saw this... how hilarious! Moore was doing this where I did my undergrad, Michigan State. I agree, MRP totally overracted on this. I think Moore was just being funny by offering the students underwear! I would have been there with all the other students laughing my butt off!
