There is something extremely humorous when old people swear on camera, especially in this Michael Moore-produced message from what he calls "the greatest generation."

Michael Moore turned to a group of seniors in an old folks home to help advocate for President Barack Obama. The video is loosely based around the idea that if we do not vote for Obama, these seniors will come after you or, at the least, punch Mitt Romney in the genitals.

The actors used in this video are very good at playing their rolls -- one of the older men actually starts to bust a move closer to the end of the video. The video does have some offensive language used to drive a point, so be warned.
