I bought "SiCKO" today....and I'm hosting a little viewing party right now.....

[marmar]

All five of my guests, none of whom had seen the movie, are SOBBING into coffee cups right now. It's quite an amazing scene.

1. Let's hope they're mad as hell by the end of it

and won't vote for anyone who's plan takes care of insurance company profits over the health of American citizens.

[Viva_La_Revolution]

2. Have you turned them on to DU?

I smell fresh meat. lol.


good for you!

[marmar]

5. That's the next phase in tonight's Leftist propaganda evening.....

:evilgrin:

[Justitia]

10. LOL - subversive, I like it.... -eom

[SeattleGirl]

3. "SICKO" is a great movie.

I'm going to get a copy of the DVD too.

[The Wielding Truth]

4. I wish I could be there,too. I haven't seem it.

[Doctor Cynic]

6. Heh, I bought the DVD two weeks ago.

Beat that! ;)

[marmar]

7. Where? Was it one of those "special" copies?

n/t

[Doctor Cynic]

20. Bootlegged...

at this huge mall owned by Hong Kong businessmen in Toronto. Only $5.

[marmar]

22. Ah.....The corner of Dundas and Spadina in Toronto is bootleg capital of the world.

I was there a few weeks ago.

[Doctor Cynic]

23. Nope.

Try Pacific Mall in Markham. It's basically a transplant of Hong Kong in suburban Toronto, so it's required to have stores selling bootlegs and porn in plane sight. ;)

8. Great movie.

Snowball's chance in hell we get a system not run by the insurance companies. We live, fight, give our tax dollars to and die for those that run our corporations.

[SutaUvaca]

9. We ordered one, too.

And will host a viewing party at home. We saw the movie about 3 months ago. Had to drive nearly two hours to a city where it was shown. But now, we get to spread the word!

Moore's web site had a link to Amazon the other day. Sale price was $19.95.

11. I'm watching it and am so saddened and envious

I wish I could convince my sister and bro-in-law to watch it. They won't because it's Michael Moore.

I have little doubt I will probably die from lack of health care. I am envious that I don't live in England, France, Canada or similar country with medical care.

[BeyondGeography]

12. It's a masterpiece

Who ARE we?

[marmar]

13. The most important line in the movie.....

With health care and everything else, who are we? How did our priorities get so bollocksed up?

[BeyondGeography]

14. Turns out we're way out of the mainstream of the western world on this one

Market extremists whom no one else would even think of imitating, with healthy doses of hatred and suspicion blocking our ability to bulldoze those who profit when we're sick.

Can't wait to get my own copy. Give your friends a hug for all of us socialists, ok?

[Zywiec]

15. Why are you on the computer if you're hosting a party? n/t

[marmar]

16. I've seen it. I'm watching the movie, talking and using the computer at the same time....

Multitasker extraordinaire. :)

[Zywiec]

17. Just so long as my drink is always filled

:beer:

[Lisa]

18. thanks for reminding me it's out -- I promised I'd pick up an extra copy for my local library

The one they ordered already has 2 dozen holds on it.

[SNAKE MAN]

19. GREAT MOVIE!!!!!!

I have watched it over 100 times. Every time a friend comes over I put Mr. Moores movie on the tube!!!!

[triguy46]

21. I was a panelist following its showing on our college campus.

Fielded many good questions. Of course, the audience was overwhelmingly supportive of the film and reform, so it was like preaching to the choir.
