Moore vs. CNN

Okay, maybe everyone has seen this already, but here's the Moore on CNN clip reacting to be kept honest by the fact check squad!

Moore's site does a great job debunking the debunking of the piece. The best part is CNN's claim Sicko doesn't mention that Cuba is ranked lower than the US in quality of health care when in reality it is ON THE SCREEN WHEN THE US RANK IS GIVEN. In fact, it would have been on CNN too, but their scrolling text blocked it out. Wow.

Although the whole piece is supposed to be about Sicko, its really interesting how it all goes back to the war (aka that stupid, pointless, endless war). The war on the other...um, terror is everything, it is the beginning and the end. It is not only costing thousands of lives and trillions of dollars, it is posioning our political discourse, warping the minds of a generation of the US army, and closing down the foreign and domestic possiblities for our nation. Don't worry though, the guy in charge is sleeping easy. A lot easier than [asshole citizens] would assume!
