Michael Moore and Olbermann on Sicko

I've written before that I think this film, Sicko, is something every American citizen should see. Michael Moore has been taking heat lately, from bought-and-paid for Gupta on CNN, from the vast realm of nitwits from the right wing nuttery. Tonight, he was on Countdown with Keith Olbermann. The clip is here, and it's worth watching.

If you've not seen the film yet, please do. If you've seen the film and are as outraged as I am, please go to www.MichaelMoore.com and read what's happening. Head over to www.SickoCure.org for an easy, efficient way to take action. Go to www.PNHP.org, the outfit behind SickoCure, and read why physicians favor single payer universal health care. Nothing will change unless we all unite and take action. Meanwhile, stay healthy.

fair elections right now

Congress is right now holding hearings on S.1285, the Fair Elections Now Act. Kos has the details, but most important is an opportunity to take action today by calling your congressperson to find out where s/he stands.

If you haven't time to read the entire post, scroll to the bottom and you'll find the means of contacting your reps. There is NO reason for any congressperson to fail to support this act. Calling congress is a way to separate the wholly corporate owned representatives from those who are just on layaway.
