Michael Moore is making headlines with his controversial documentary, but one group is targeting the filmmaker for his waistline.

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals has selected the gadfly filmmaker as one of its “Flab Five” and is treating him to a Veg Eye for the Fat Guy makeover. “Looks like the ‘Downsize This’ author has been doing too much supersizing,” notes PETA.

“We’ll be sending him a nice little care package, a makeover kit filled with health and diet tips, PETA’s vegetarian starter kit, and suggestions on how he might change his lifestyle,” PETA’s Michael McGraw tells The Scoop.

Dude, wheres my breakfast?

[CaptRon]

I love it when thieves fall out.

[babyface00]

Egad! Even his fingers are fat.

[CaptRon]

When's the expose on PETA, Mikey?

[cvq3842]

You've got to be kidding me! This is TOO funny!

[TonyRo76]

Liberals bashin' on other liberals. Now that's entertainment! :)

[Jenya]

The size of the pig's body is rapidly catching up with the size of the pig's ego.

a makeover kit filled with health and diet tips

He'll eat them too.

[Mo1]

Do ya think PETA will put up Bill Boards just for Moore??

[flashbunny]

I'm sure his fingers are stupid, too.

Fat and stupid runs all the way through that boy. It's not just skin deep with him.

[Frank_Discussion]

Looks like Greenpeace may need to intervene with their "Save the Whales" campaign, too...

[tm22721]

Don't laugh.

Corporations are examining their more 'corporal' employees for downsizing (slim down or get out).

It's the health cost monster and it's eating our country alive.

BUMP

[KellyAdmirer]

Moore talks the talk, but waddles the waddle.

[BrooklynGOP]

He sweats Crisco!
I heard when he broke his leg - gravy poured out! :]

[eleni121]

More troubling than moore's surplus weight is his lack of brain tissue.

What a nation! Even lunatics get to run around making noise.

Thanks for making my day, and it's just getting started. :-) It'll be hard to top this. It's amazing how Liberals eat their own. LOL

[Big Mack]

I think he is about the correct weight for the creature that he is.

[cripplecreek]

Fat, drunk, and, stupid is no way to go through life son.

[NRA2BFree]

LOL! I LOVE that picture. :-)

[ErnBatavia]

“We’ll be sending him a nice little care package, a makeover kit"

I don't think they should categorize it as "little"...the care package is gonna require a double axled vehicle.

[isthisnickcool]

[Aquinasfan]

He'll eat them too.

LOL!

[freedomlover]

News Flash: Pigs are fat.

[Redleg Duke]

The first positive step in downsiding this tub of rancid lard would be to remove his head and throw it into Nadjif!

Moore talks the talk, but waddles the waddle.

Mike: Big Fat Geek Waddling.

[William Terrell]

The notion of worrying about the health cost of another person's waistline is based on socialism and that's eating out country alive.

Ladies and Gentleman - New from Fox and the RNC - It's EXTREME EXTREMIST MAKEOVER!!!

We'll take a ugly-as-sin commie pinko liberal extremist and turn him or her into an educated, logical, beautiful Conservative. Besides the liposuction, facelifts, and boobjobs (yes Rob Reiner, you're definitely a candidate for a reduction), we'll teach these poor souls how to logically argue a point, appreciate lower taxes, shoot firearms, and understand what liberty, freedom, and being a true blue American really means!

On next week's episode, Michael Moore will lose 400 pounds and receive a brain transplant, followed by the astonishing miraculous transformation of Helen Thomas into a Republican Supermodel!!! See you Tuesday at Eight, followed by That 70s Show!

[Eric in the Ozarks]

The guy's a pig. Let's move on.

[RetiredArmy]

PETA’s vegetarian starter kit

Oh, that is classic. Just priceless!!

[valkyrieanne]

I'm no fan of Michael Moore, but he should tell the obnoxious food nazis of PETA go *@%$ off.

[adam_az]

He ate James Carville!

[headsonpikes]

He'll eat them too....LOL!

"Strap a tin beak on him and he can peck sh*t with the chickens!", as my grand-dad would say.

[Liz]

I say send him for an Extreme Makeover. Maybe they can lipo out whatever is left of his liberal pea brain.

[Alouette]

[Gunder]

Where exactly does PETA get off "selecting" fat people for a makeover? How offensive can they be?!

(I guess I just answered my own question.)

How about a bath, a shave, a diet! When he sees himself then, he might loose his self loathing, start to feel good about himself, and vote Republican!

[Lil'freeper]

American Idol winner Ruben Studdard is also getting targeted by PETA. “If ‘The Velvet Teddy Bear’ doesn’t want to become known as ‘The Velveeta Teddy Bear,’ he might want to idle his meat and dairy intake,” notes the group.

Woah, I didn't think there was actually any dairy in velveeta! LOL. Seriously, though, their PETA-brains are a little B-12 deficient if they think obesity is caused by eating meat/dairy.

[skinkinthegrass]

but waddles the waddle.

HA!HA!...LOL! :))

[Alberta Pride]

Let Miramax distribute the film....

But only after it had been held to scrutiny to determine the amount of doctoring of words and scenes that he did with the Columbine Mockumentary.

I nominate Charleston Heston...for a little payback

If it passes muster...so be it.
Put it out, and let the public decide.

His track record almost assures us that this will be juct another 21/2 hours of lies and Bush-bashing.

[Grampa Dave]

This over weight lunatic left hog needs to lose about 400#'s.

[Grampa Dave]

You had best put on your Kevlar and Nomax suit. :)

[talleyman]

PETA resorts to cannibalism...

[Afghan Whig]

PETA: "We're not against people, we're just against fat people." At least one of them is Michael Moore.

[EQAndyBuzz]

I prefer Michael Moore loses weight by getting stomach cancer.

And he should go to Canada for treatment.

[Liberal Classic]

Gives new meaning to 'leftists eat their own.'
