And the people who'd flown in for this intimate first screening, a day after the film had been shipped to the Cannes Film Festival, included grateful Sept. 11 "first responders," suffering lung problems or other ailments from their days at ground zero. In the film, Moore takes them to Cuba and tries to get them treated at the U.S. base at Guantanamo Bay--where, he contends, terror suspects were getting better medical care than the heroes of 9/11.

you ignorant, malicious, willfully obtuse fuck.

of course they're not going to get treated at Gitmo, it's a military installation. and gawd, i should hope those prisoners are getting good health care. that's our fucking moral responsibility.

you want to be an actual voice of dissent, Michael? then have the true courage to "document" the whole story. because the whole story is messy, and it's gray, and has no clear cut bad guys, and maybe doesn't make the point you want it to.

the karmic wheel is going to come back around on Michael Moore, and when it does, he's Tony Goldwyn in Ghost. i could feel bad about that, and yet....
