As Taxi Driver and Raging Bull scribe Paul Schrader says in the film, "if you...

Bart Stupak has a challenger (Mercury Rising 鳯女)

Connie Saltonstall will challenge Bart Stupak in the primary. Michael Moore vouches for her. Stupak, of course, is the idiot stalling healthcare reform because he wants to make it financially impossible for most women to have access to abortion. His measure is wildly unconstitutional (if the Supreme Court were not a bunch of intellectual [...]

Michael Moore Warns Democrats 'In for an Ass-Whooping of Biblical Proportions in November' (NewsBust

When Michael Moore starts getting panicked, you know times are getting tumultuous for the left and the Democratic Party. The anti-corporation, sometimes conspiracy theorist documentary filmmaker aired his frustrations about the current health care reform predicament. Congressional Democrats have gotten themselves into a mess with time running out as the midterm election cycle fast approaches and...

Cuban Health Care is Sicko (Verum Serum)

Over at Big Journalism, Humberto Fontova notes a story that has bubbled up from Cubans on the street to Spanish language blogs and finally crossed the language barrier: During that cold snap in mid January, Cuban dissidents snuck out (by internet) a report claiming that over forty patients had somehow frozen to death in Cuba’s [...]

Reagan, after all, raised taxes by what at the time was a record amount and signed an immigration-amnesty bill," said [REDACTED]. Michael Moore? Susan [...]

Update: Walmart is Selling Capitalism in Stores (MediaBistro.com)

Yesterday filmmaker Michael Moore tweeted that the DVD of his movie Capitalism: A Love Story was not being sold in Walmart stores, only online. Then he was sent photographs from people all over the country showing that Walmart was in fact carrying the DVD. Crowdsourcing! So the Walmart site was incorrect. In a funny twist to this whole saga: Moore released his last documentary Sicko online for...

Open letter to youtube. (Vlad Tepes)

I loath this open letter nonsense. Such a ‘Michael Moore’ism. However as youtube does not provide a method for feedback that I can see, I guess I will have to do this. Youtube removed a video I put up yesterday. One which I am quite confident remains up in the original Dutch with English moments. [...]

The pile on never ends (Like Maria Said Paz)

Don't you get tired of it? All the piling of any woman who accomplishes something? The refusal to let a woman bask for even one moment? Megan Carpentier is a British woman who writes for the British newspaper the Guardian . Today she has something on her mind and, sadly, it's not about how to replace her bi-level do . No, she's pissed at Kathryn Bigelow: At this year's Oscars , Kathryn Bigelow...

DVD Tuesday: Up in Precious! (LAist)

Following its debut at the Telluride Film Festival , Up in the Air was being heralded as a strong contender for a Best Picture Oscar. The fact that it didn't win anything at last Sunday's ceremony should tell you it wasn't nearly as weighty and significant as early press indicated. Still, it was another solid film by Jason Reitman and another effortless turn by Clooney. I loved everything about...
