Michael Moore can’t get no respect from his homies:

“Would you want him as a role model? Would you want your son or daughter to be like him?” asked Don Hammond, a member of the Hall of Fame selection committee. “I haven’t talked to anybody yet who’s for him. The word to describe Michael Moore is embarrassing. He embarrasses everybody.”

(And note that, contra popular myth, he’s from Davison, not my home town of Flint).
