88. I was actually more offended when he said:
"Yeah, I send them to a private school, I'm not going to left my kids be a pawn in some failied social experiment"
"I wanted to do something more important with my life than work on a line"
"I don't really think you can change much by where you buy your stuff"
These were from a Playboy interview 4-5 years ago.
I'm not a Moore hater,. I really appreciate the things he has done for our side, but I always keep in mind that his "profession" is "voice of the working class"
Al Franken is much funnier, but thats to be expected. Franken is a comedy professional, Moore has never really had to work a hostile room (just riffing to the choir)
For interesting insight to Moore, read Ben Hamper's "Rivethead"
