Default Re: What\'s your opinion on Michael Moore?

[ QUOTE ]
I'm probably the most far right wing nut job on this forum, so you know what I think.

Having said that, I wish, we conservatives had our version of "Michael Moore." Hopefully we can find someone who is not oppossed to creative editing and who is in favor of trying to destroy people and employers.

Lastly, I'm not going to be one of those people who judge "Sicko" without seeing it, (I won't see it), but I don't understand the idea of going to Cuba, and holding up their communist health care system as an idea to emmulate. How many world leaders travel to Cuba for treatment? You know how all of those Cubans risk their lives on flimsy rafts trying to get to America? Perhaps Moore will go down to South Florida and tell those boat refugees that they are wrong, and convince them to turn around and paddle back to Cuba's "wonderful" system.

But like I said, I wish we had our own "Michael Moore" that the media would fall all over for. That would be great.

Coors,
The right has plenty of people who do their own creative editing(Bush,Fox News,Coulter, etc).
World leaders don't go to Cuba for medical treatment because they can afford the best. Michael Moore is trying to point out how f-ed up our medical/pharmacutical industry is. He's not saying to emmulate the Cuban system, but for some poor/uninsured people, going to Cuba or another country for treatment may be their only alternative. The fact that 40+ million people in this country do not have health insurance is a disgrace.
