[muntrv]

[nadinbrzezinski]

1. It is good to see

[Tatiana]

2. Michael is still (rightfully) pissed.

But it's good to see a healthy and civil discussion of such an important issue.

[eleny]

3. This is a good discussion with some facts shared by Potter

The video of this interview will no doubt go viral.

[bluestateguy]

4. 'bout what?

???

[muntrv]

6. For discrediting the movie "Sicko" on behalf of the health insurance industry.

[Matariki]

"discrediting" is putting it mildly.

10. For being part of the conspiracy to discredit "Sicko".

[Capn Sunshine]

5. Shouldn't he apologize for trying to take down the Bailey Building and Loan?

set a poor precedent for the FED if you ask me.

7. Watching.

Good piece.

[northoftheborder]

8. Potter has written a book...

"The Campaign Against Sicko". Moore is almost speechless with emotion over Potter's apology and active participation in the movement for health reform.

[eleny]

11. Moore called Potter "the Daniel Ellsberg" of our time

Potter is to health care what DE was to ending the Vietnam War.

Wow. :cry:

[malaise]

12. Nice discussion - Keith is a pro

He just let them talk - I hope Tweety was watching. :evilgrin:

[eleny]

15. It was definitely a "tingle-worthy" discussion

[immoderate]

16. Michael Moore no slouch as an interviewer either.

The victim interviews the perp. Reality TV, or something.

18. I hope

Tweety chokes... after how he handled a liberal female guest on his show. He HATES liberals, and swoons over chicken-hawks. Yet is anti-war?

Conficted comes to mind.

[Mimosa]

19. TRUE! n/t

[Luminous Animal]

14. Actually it is called "Deadly Spin"

13. very good segment n/t

[BrklynLiberal]

17. I look forward to seeing the video since I missed the show...

[Festivito]

20. Oh, that's so nice. Only a few tens of thousands needlessly died, I guess.

An apology. How nice.
