Michael Moore for U.S. Attorney. What’s this world coming to?
Well, it’s not actually the Michael Moore of “Roger and Me” fame, the target of the right.
It’s the other Michael Moore, a former Georgia state senator and a former chief assistant district attorney. He is currently a private attorney.
President Obama has nominated him to be the U.S. Attorney for the Middle District of Georgia, according to the Macon Telegraph.
In other moves, President Obama nominated Ed Tarver for the U.S. Attorney job in the Southern District of Georgia and Carmen Ortiz for the Boston U.S. Attorney post.
