eCanadaNow.com - Michael Moore Hits Iran With SickoMichael Moore Hits Iran With Sicko
Tehran (eCanadaNow) - Michael Moore has reached Iran for a screening of his new film Sicko.
This is the very first international documentary film festival in history held in Iran and the writer, director, and producer was proud to be a part of it.
Michael Moore interviewed many Americans who have received poor or no treatment by U.S. health care insurance companies in the film Sicko. To say that it paints a less than flattering image of the health care system in the United States would be a huge understatement.
The flim already has many critics in the government in the United States simply because the criteria of the film makes a lot of people look very bad.
The universal free health care systems in Canada, France, Britain, and Cuba are all looked at closely and compared to the poor health care in America.
The film is pushing for a universal health care plan and because of it the support continues to rise.

Wouldn’t it just be too sad if somehow in Tehran Moore would suffer a heart attack and die because how bad the Iranian medical facilities are?

My brother’s girlfriend recently said she wanted to go see the “Sicko” movie. I told her not to waste her money. She gave me the same look I get when I tell her Al Gore is a fake and spouts propaganda. She belives unquestionably in Al Gore’s movie “An Inconvenient Truth”. It is hard to believe she can walk and chew gum at the same time.

Tehran Mikey!LMAO!
Hopefully US Customs will give him a 'particularly' thorough search upon his return, as a nice 'welcome home' from the country that he obviously loves so very much and has so much respect for.

So Iran rejects Oliver Stoned for being too close to the Great Satan and Hollywood’s Jews but the Iranian Hitler clearly likes Michael Moore. Let’s call him Lord Ho Ho in tribute to the WWII Nazi Propagandist who was justly hanged after the war for treason.

It’s a perfect fit. Even there, it’s not quite the most honest film.

You may wish to consider suggesting to your obviously smitten and temporarily incoherent brother that Conservative women are far better looking, far smarter, far more congenial and much better cooks than Leftist women. Also, with a Conservative woman he won't be begging all of his friends to shoot him in the head and end his misery after a couple years of marriage, when reality starts settling in..

I suppose that in this case they are making an exception because of the propaganda value of this particular swine.
