Yeah I guess literacy is anti-American.
Maybe it isn't health care but the education system that needs re-working.
You are a prime example my friend.
Can I put you on TV?
"Our American Education system is broken. We have our children posting on sites, acting like they know something, who can't even spell 'Michael' and 'anti' correctly"

Why Bother?
Although he has raised some good points in all his movies, they are still fiction due to the fact that he edits interviews to suit his purposes, doesn't interview the opposing side, and in some cases, lies outright.
Take Sicko for example.....
He goes on about how other countries that give free health care, and how thats the greatest thing. What he doesn't tell you is how long it actually takes to see the doctor you need, especially when you need to see a specialist.
In cuba he shows excellent health care for everyone. Thats an outright lie..........Only the rich elites in cuba get the best healthcare for free....the little guy gets screwed there too, but he doesn't show this....Then they show him with a loudspeaker at Guantanomo Bay asking that US citizens get the same healthcare that Al-Quaida is recieving......Yet if the American military were not treating captured terrorists good, it would be him and his far left followers screaming the loudest that we are mistreating prisoners......
I think most people( I hope anyway) are smart enough to draw their own conclusions when it comes to his fictional movies......
Don't forget, he's just trying to keep the fanatics on the Far- Left Relevant in todays politics.........

You can stop Michael Moore if you stop trying to stop Michael Moore; ignore him, don't buy his DVDs, don't go to his movies, stop asking questions about him, just let him rant to those who believe his drivel. As hard as some of the propaganda he says may be to endure, he is still an American (even if he hates America) and has the right to say any stupid thing that comes into his "sicko" head. He is only relavent if we allow him to be so.

We can stop people like Michael Moore in a very simple and straightforward way.
Abolish the first amendment to the constitution.
I personally believe that the safety of each and every American depends on the ability of a strong central government having the ability to stifle dissent and ensure that all true Americans think, act, and look the same.
Is that how you want to live?

It would be anti American to stop Michael Moore. There is nothing in the constitution that says "If you are an idiot, you have no right to free speech". Let him rant, he creates more Republicans than Democrats.

Why do you want to stop someone from using free speech. That is one of the hallmarks of democracy ....that people can say what they feel. One who wants to censor or stop that means censorship and stopping democracy. What exactly do you think freedom means? Tough that other people can also say what they want even when it disagrees with your theory. You used your free speech in saying you want him stopped. He used his in making films..... People have the right to say what they will in this country without fear of reprisal. Anyone that seeks to stop that or deny people that right is definatly Anti-American. Guess what....to be anti-Bush is not to be anti-American. Being a patriot means more than empty rhetoric and flag waving. Imagine ....Thomas Jefferson must have had an anti-American machine going too when he composed that nasty Constitution..............

There really are just two options: ignore him, or continue to feed him.
BTW, in case the dullards have missed this point, freedom of speech also protects the questioners right to ask this question.

Ignore him. He is a quack, why should we give him any air time. If people stop watching the news when they talk about him, don't click on articles about him, eventually he will be marginalized and go away.
In his defense, it is healthy to have people like that in our society to remind us of the dangers of moving to far one direction or the other.

Let him talk. It is better to remain silent and be thought the fool, than speak and remove all doubt.
