Great point. Obamacare might order him on a diet and no fries for him anymore.

Michael Moore: Capitalism has proven it's failed - CNN
First of all a typo is not a sign if stupidity, but commenting about it and attempting to utilize the point as a way to negate the factual context of a post is stupid, not to mention petty.

As for Moore. Where is he wrong? Were you in favor of what the banksters on Wall Street caused? Is that true Capitalism? Apologize? Anyone that does not appreciate the corruption that has ensued being confronted is an idiot or lying or both.

Liberals and Democrates really listen to the wind bag? WOW Who knew.........

If he gets pushed off a cliff I want to be there to refine him for the oil.

If he ever talked about health care i didn't know, but he sure isn't any good example of health. Why would any sane person listen to him at all?

If I knew it would - then I could support Obamacare.

You may have hit on something - have a government plan but those on the government plan cannot eat fries and junk food of any kind, they would have to prove they are working on their fitness.

Yet - we still allow the food stamp crowd to fill their grocery carts with all kinds of junk. For their own sakes they should be limited to only certain purchases like rice and beans, peanut butter sandwiches but instead we let them go hog-wild in the food stores and then we have to pay for all their obesity related problems.

Wow you are so funny! All you have is an insult about his weight? His size isn't unique. Many in the US are overweight, many more so than MM. How that makes any difference to his position on healthcare is lost on me.

Oh there are so many more things to insult him about but this one was teed up so nicely I couldn't resist. Glad you enjoyed it!

Capitalism in America failed for the same reason Communism failed in the USSR -

Crony collusion of pooled resources and power.

In Russia, it was the politburo.

In America, it is the collusive influence of the Federal Reserve Bank.
