I can't stand Limbaugh so I haven't seen what he looks like in years.

I'm commenting on why Moore(who is morbidly obese) dresses the way he does. He wears the typical "tubby" outfit.

He dresses like most of them in loose fitting clothing to try and hide their girth.

I'm tired of looking at all the fat people in this country.

It is almost impossible to find mens dress slacks when you have a size 30 waist these days.

I asked a salesperson at Macys and she told me they buy mostly in the larger sizes (36 and up). What does that tell you?

You don't see it over in Europe like you do here.

I don't know much about Michael Moore. Did he grow up working class? If so, there's your answer I suppose.

He needs to do himself a favor and get the plastic surgery to harvest all that extra skin.
Did Rush have a Gastric Bypass surgery?

I swear I didn't know!

Well good for him!

Maybe Michael Moore should have a Gastric Bypass surgery, too!

He dresses no differently than many other morbidly obese people. People that large rarely dress well.

That's because no one designs and sells good quality clothes in large sizes.

But jeans, a button down or Tee shirt and baseball cap is practically a uniform for factory workers which was Moore's roots and he don't want to give up that identity.

I think he does it to get you mad enough to care and compose a very short thread about it.

RL is a bigger guy but nowhere near morbidly obese like Michael Moore is. RL dresses okay. I don't listen to the guy, but he looks pretty professional when I've seen him in the media.


Michael Moore? Not so much... And why does he always wear a baseball cap?



He looks okay here though:

Probably true, although MM is wealthy enough to have clothes tailor made for him.
