Gupta vs Moore (on CNN's Larry King)
CNN | 10 July 2007

Posted on 07/11/2007 12:18:14 AM PDT by Lorianne

Anyone see this debate on Larry King Live?

Dr. Sanjay Gupta gives Michael Moore a run for his money on his statistics and fact gathering skills.

Says Moore "fudged" his data and his terms "murky".

Unfortunately I missed this one, but I saw Moore on CNN yesterday during his crazy tirade. That waddle under his chin was going crazy!

So now Michael Moore wants CNN to "tell the truth"? The man is beyond delusional.

LOL! What a quivering mound of jello. I may have just ruined the concept of "jello" as a consumable forever...

Gupta should have pointed out that with socialized medicine you can’t get some procedures, like a Total Body Lift. If Moore were to lose that extra four hundred pounds, he’d have to walk with skin hanging to his ankles.

“That waddle under his chin was going crazy!”

One thing for sure, the doctor will be around to one day dance on Moore’s grave. Tonight the landwhale looked as if he was just a short step from a heart attack. Oh, I will have to check but I think the word may actually be “wattle”. But your intent was more than clear.

I can’t think of anytime in the past 21 years I’ve actually had to refer to that flap of skin, so it probably is wattle.

I saw a downloaded copy of "Sicko" and it's a typical Michael Moore Leftist Propaganda piece. Some parts are true (cruel, unfeeling HMOs denying coverage to get gretaer profits) and most of the rest creative fiction (superb and "free" medical treatment in Canada, France, Great Britain, and Cuba).

Mister Moore got called on the part he left out - the taxes required to support full-up socialized medicine - by Dr. Gupta and he got all quivery blubbery furious.

Something sadly amusing about an overweight guy being angrily arrogant: kind of like Oliver Hardy playing MacBeth. He somehow confuses being a mildly talented propagandist with being adequate for anything else.

Talk about friendly fire!

Moore has jumped the shark by attacking CNN as being pawns of corporate America!

Moore’s bullying, childish and boorish behavior was there for all to see when he was legitimately called on his suspect facts. His intimidation manner, wildass accusations and hysterical laughter was revolting.

CNN’s Dr. Gupta by contrast looked the epitome of a rational, intelligent and balanced investigator.

CNN’s Blitzter and King tried every way but Sunday to tell Moore they still liked his deceitful movie, but Moore wouldn’t have any of it!

Adult children like Moore are the heart and soul of Socialist America, the Democrat Party.

“Some parts are true (cruel, unfeeling HMOs denying coverage to get gretaer profits)...”

To be replaced by a ‘cruel, unfeeling Government denying coverage to reduce costs’. How are we better off?

Spot-on assessment! It also made me chuckle a bit.

LOL. Tonight was the first time in at least a decade that I have watched Larry “cadaver with suspenders” King. I really liked when the Doctor stumped Moore so badly there was at least a 5 second pause before the buffoon could reply.

I caught a little clip during a few minutes of O'Reilly last night. He had on a gal who does body language analysis and they were discussing the non-verbal messages of several recent television interviews. Moore's meltdown was one of them. They ran a clip of it and then re-ran it in slow motion (which made Moore look all the crazier). O'Reilly asked the analyst, "So what do you make of this?" Her answer, "He's really, really angry."

Duh. But it was great.

We have forgotten the principles the nation was created upon: From Thomas Paine's "Common Sense" Jan,1776, which was a best seller like no other and very much jump-started a reluctant America toward independence:

SOME writers have so confounded society with government, as to leave little or no distinction between them; whereas they are not only different, but have different origins. Society is produced by our wants, and government by wickedness; the former promotes our happiness positively by uniting our affections, the latter negatively by restraining our vices. The one encourages intercourse, the other creates distinctions. The first is a patron, the last a punisher. 1 Society in every state is a blessing, but government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one; for when we suffer, or are exposed to the same miseries by a government, which we might expect in a country without government, our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer. Government, like dress, is the badge of lost innocence; the palaces of kings are built on the ruins of the bowers of paradise. For were the impulses of conscience clear, uniform, and irresistibly obeyed, man would need no other lawgiver; but that not being the case, he finds it necessary to surrender up a part of his property to furnish means for the protection of the rest; and this he is induced to do by the same prudence which in every other case advises him out of two evils to choose the least. Wherefore, security being the true design and end of government, it unanswerably follows that whatever form thereof appears most likely to ensure it to us, with the least expence and greatest benefit, is preferable to all others.

Moore hates/despises/mistrusts the Bush administration and yet he wants to put the entire health care system under it? Something doesn’t compute.

Keep in mind that the HMOs were initiated as quasi socialized medicine. If they are halfway a failure now, imagine what they would be like if they were part of a completely socialized healthcare system.

Guess who helped develop and implement HMOs.

Teddy Kennedy. Surprised?
