Michael Moore - I wonder if he had a cigar while he was there?

A ban on Michael Moore would make my day. I'm fairly liberal, but I realize that this guy is the worst thing to happen to liberals in quite some time. Polarize much?

I used to like him, but now hes just a guy that people can make pot shots at. He should go back to battling huge companies like in Roger and Me

sez he applied to go legally as a full-time journalist.
Calling him a journalist is like calling Paris Hilton a singer. Or should I say actor?
Ah, whatever. You get the point.

I wish he made good documentary's....he's good at making films, his views are just right out of his ass.

This is good about all the OFAC getting press

I just saw the movie, SiCKO. It is very good. I don't think Moore is objective, but his films are always engaging. I work for a health insurance company in the U.S. The situations he highlights in the film are not uncommon. I think it is an important film for Americans to see. It says something broader about American politics, and not just about the health care industry.

I do not like Moore at all, but being in the industry I will see the movie.. the issue here inlies with the fact that the common insurance consumer is uninformed, not only about the product but what it is they need and how much of it they need.. the multitude of consumers in this market do not understand, and that is a problem for the insurance industry just as much as the consumer.

Rising health care costs in this nation is an issue but when you look at other alternatives then you can make your own decision, and the problem is, is that people wont look at facts about socialized healthcare, they will just like the "ideal" behind it..

I am done.. there is a long ass thread on here about this somewhere..

I like how his movies are shot, just not the views he puts in them. I'll most likely see it too
