He talks about health care in Canada and Europe, their public system, etc. He glorifies it and makes you realize it can be done. I think a lot of people down here associate "public health care" with "Earl K. Long," which is probably not a fair comparison. Anyway, while Michael Moore can be an inflammatory, pompous ass, he's also got a few good points. Has anyone else seen it?

I saw it and I agree with you on the Gitmo point. I wish we had the public health care system that other countries had.
