I'm waiting for workaholic Michael Moore to croak any day from obesity. If he wants to cover a problem, I think he's best equipped for the MO topic or WLS. But instead:

There isn't any money or notoriety in doing a movie on obesity.  I pose the question that if the economy is so tanked and he is making a movie about it - who can afford the tickets? If I'm not working that $20 for two tickets is better used going to gas or groceries.  

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!

I'm not that big a movie fan, but you can bet if I do watch one, that I get it for free! So this may only be an issue for those who watch it right away on the big screen.

Looks like there's actually a movement to help Michael Moorebid with his own personal "sicko":

This one is downright cruel and insensitive to MO folks:

 I don't know, Don ..   Supersize Me got a lot of viewing time, and bad p.r. for McD's  ..     Apparently Dr. Naaman in Houston (RNY surgeon) got busy enough after he was featured in it that he was soon ready to retire ..

The problem with Michael Moore is that he stretches the truth to make his points, therefore, even if some of his points are valid, he has no credibility.

ALL news agencies twist the truth...ALL of them, to suit their particular needs or view points. I dont' think Michael Moore is any different, actually I find his perspective while not always acurate, refreshing. He does look at issues in a unique (liberal) way. Like any view point, I don't throw out the baby with the bath water...

 Hey, Michael's my main man .    !           Don't be dissin' him, NotDave    

 And, back when he was getting set to flim Sicko I suggested he include the stories of those of us that needed WLS but our health ins. carriers had blanket exclusions in them against it ..   To show how economically foolish (at best) and inconsiderate of human life (at worst) the ins. cos. are ..   (I guess he decided not to include my idea for that one) ..   

  As to Michael's weight, either that pic in the article is an old one (although I don't remember him ever having a beard before)  or he has regained weight lately .   He was amazingly slimmed down when I saw him on T.V. right before his latest movie came out .    (I wondered even if he might have had WLS   ) ..
