Michael Moore on Reagan voters: They're dying By: Patrick Gavin December 13, 2012 09:16 AM EST
Michael Moore thinks the country is getting better — “I’m very optimistic about the future” — he says, and what explains that?
Reagan voters are dying.
In a discussion on Current TV about Sheldon Adelson on Wednesday, Moore told host Jennifer Granholm, “Adelson and all those people will be gone, just like the people who voted for Reagan, the older generation that was really behind Reagan.”
“If you were 55 or 60 years old in 1980 when Reagan ran, you’re dead now,” said Moore. “They’re not alive. They left. And when they left, you know, things got better.”
Sensing perhaps a verbal misstep, Moore clarified his comments.
“My dad is 91. I love old people. Don’t get me wrong. But, I’m just saying that the previous generations, which were willing to live under segregation, were willing to live with women making a third less than men, were willing to live with all this stuff.

“My dad is 91. I love old people.”
Wait until ObamaCare kicks in and My Father is denied healthcare due to rationning while being escorted into a Death with Dignity program
“Don’t get me wrong. But, I’m just saying that the previous generations, which were willing to live under segregation”,
.... and we had a lower crime rate—black crimes has ALWAYS been very high
“were willing to live with women making a third less’ than men,”
...less technology meant more physical labor careers, a job very few women could do: Furthermore, women were homemakers which many will tell you was NOT like the scenes on the Donna Reed Show.
“They wanted gays in the closet.”
...and fewer child molesters—all gay—, few communicable diseases etc
Keep that cholesterol flowing, Mikey-boy. You’ll be joining your commie cohorts in Hell soon enough.
I'd *love* to see tax legislation that would immediately bring that down to $500,000 and keep it at that ceiling (inflation adjusted) for the rest of his miserable existence.I'd also like that legislation to cap his gross annual income at $75,000 (also inflation adjusted).
Our biggest problem IMHO is that people under 30 seem totally ambivalent on all relevant social issues.
Just wait until their freebies run out and their parents water well runs dry. Wait until they have 4 or more years of marxism. They will be reaching for their AK47’s. Oops, the government took them - so sorry. They will get the picture eventually but unfortunately it will be too late. Another civil war? Possibly.
Half probably have no idea what socialism is, even while descending into it.
When I was growing up the nuns at St Joseph were always pounding the evils of Communism into our heads. I wouldn't doubt it if history classes don't go back further than the 60's nowadays.
My coworker's kids are in 3rd and 5th grade. Looking through their homework books, chapters featured Jimmy Carter (!), MLK, and Obama. Not one mention of Reagan or 911. Luckily, the kids are being indoctrinated by their parents...the right way.
If you were 60 when you voted for Reagan in 1980 it means you were 21 on Dec. 7, 1941.
None of us who had to live through the Carter Administration would ever vote for this stuff again.
And there just aren’t enough of us anymore.
YEAH!! What is YOUR tax rate, Michael Moore?! Are you paying YOUR fair share? How much do YOU have in offshore accounts?
I look forward to reading Michael Moore’s obituary.
This degenerate piece of work should choke on his ill-gotten wealth. He will be the mama cass of his generation. someone will find his bloated rotting corpse in his mansion with his mouth choked on fast-food. He is an insufferable moron.
Actual Reagan voters are now much older and dying, but the legacy lives in the younger generations. An important point was made since the election...that every candidate for president since Reagan was against Reagan in 1980. We had two Bushes, Dole, McCain and Romney. None are Reagan Republicans by choice. I think GWB actually carried about 2/3s of the Reagan legacy well, but clearly was a supporter of his father in 1980.
Our party has an entire generation of politicians now who grew up in the era of Reagan. Many were too young to vote, but they and their parents were inspired by RR. There is a huge opportunity to expand the legacy if we can get control of the party from the DC elite.
The tea party is very much a representative of the Reagan spirit. Point by point, it matches up to Reagan’s philosophy and his political agenda. It is up to us to educate a new generation. We need to sell why governors like Kasisch, Walker and others are implementing sound conservative solutions and why they work. We need to compare California with Texas. We have to educate the populace on the facts, and we can have another Reaganesque movement.

aren’t we all?
In the end his “works” will be rotting away in some library, ignored and forgotten.
Yep, it is comforting to think that Michael Moore will eventually be taking the dirt nap too.
It can’t happen too soon, as far as I am concerned.
Hopefully that last major artery of your’s is about to close up, you fat marxist f&^k.
I turned 18 just in time to vote for Ronald Reagan the first time.
I’’m younger than you Michael, you fat nasty slob.
I bet I outlive you. Get bent bozo.
