OT- Another Michigan Man in the White House
It's been 38 years since Gerald Ford left the Oval Office, and now we'll have another dyed-in-the-wool Michigan Man back in the White House. Hooray!*
TV Journalist/Brain Surgeon Dr. Sanjay Gupta is expected to be named US Surgeon General:

Gupta grew up in Livonia and got both his undergrad and doctorate at M. He's given interviews on how big a Michigan fan he is and (for all you conservatives) even took nasty Sparty Fan Michael Moore to task for his factual omissions in Sicko. Plus, he'd cut your head open and then laugh about it afterwards. That's all kinds of bad ass.
*Ok, so TECHNICALLY I'm sure that there have been several M graduates to work in the Executive Branch in various capacities between Ford and Gupta, but we weren't in a bowl this year so cut me some slack.

What's the deal with Moore and that MSU hat he always wears? Didn't he actually go to UM?
January 6th, 2009 at 6:37 PM ^
He went to UM-Flint.
I bet he was just a big fan of the Flintstones.
January 6th, 2009 at 6:48 PM ^
He dropped out of UM-Flint. And wasn't he asked not to wear a Michigan hat? I know he wore a UCLA one for a while before going to the State one.

That would be awesome. I've talked to Sanjay Gupta on the phone.
Now that I've high fived Ricky Powers and Desmond Howard and talked to the future Surgeon General on the phone, I'm running out of body parts that I can wash.

whoever told michael moore to not ever wear a michigan hat deserves a thousand virgins when he goes to heaven (or his own suite in the big house).
