Michael Moore & Donna Smith: Still Sicko
March 19, 2011"Sooner or later people are going to realize that decisions about whether one lives or dies should not be predicated on 'How much money can I make off this?'" says Michael Moore, looking back at his film Sicko with Donna Smith of National Nurses United. They both note that it's the health care workers who are leading the fight for a better system for all, even as those workers are under attack themselves.Michael Moore & Donna Smith, and Rose Ann DeMoro

March 8, 2011Last week Michael Moore appeared on our show and talked about the economy as he sees it--and Fox News called in billionaire Donald Trump to comment. Fair and balanced -- a billionaire to comment on a critique of this Country's skewed accumulation of wealth? Well Michael Moore had the last word on Saturday in front of the Wisconsin state capital. Let's take a look.Dave Lindorff, Nawal El Saadawi, and Michael Moore in Madison
March 7, 2011"The mystery of American Raymond A. Davis, currently imprisoned in the custody of local police in Lahore, Pakistan and charged with the Jan. 27 murder of two young men, whom he allegedly shot eight times with pinpoint accuracy through his car windshield, is growing increasingly murky."Michael Moore: Acknowledging Working People
March 2, 2011"You essentially entered into a contract with the corporate clsss--if you work hard, you will be rewarded. Now it's you work hard, the company prospers, and you lose your job," says Michael Moore. It's time to return to a place where working people are treated with respect and honor in this country, Michael argues, from the Academy Awards to the schools our children attend.Vince Warren, Michael Moore, and Walker's Budget
March 1, 2011"The key here for the Obama administration is not just to talk the talk but they have to walk the walk," says Vince Warren of the Center for Constitutional rights. It's not just Libya he's talking about -- the US has a ways to go on many humanitarian concerns, from Guantanamo to the Mavi Marmara, the International Criminal Court to neighborhood policing.Michael Moore: People Still Have the Power
March 1, 2011"This is a movement that is not going to stop," says filmmaker Michael Moore of the uprising in Madison, Wisconsin (and across the country--all 50 states held solidarity rallies this weekend). "I knew sooner or later people would say they've had enough."Michael Moore, Peg Lautenschlager, and John Nichols

"I knew sooner or later people would say they've had enough."Megan Carpentier: Congress Votes, Progressives Debate
December 17, 2010Congress is passing tax cuts for the rich as well as everyone else this week, while Don't Ask Don't Tell is headed for a stand-alone vote in the Senate. Is gridlock over, or are these just issues that actually have some bipartisan support? Meanwhile, Julian Assange may be out on bail, but the debate over the charges against him still rages, and Megan Carpentier of TPM reminds us that it's possible for the arrest to be politically motivated and the charges still not be false.Megan Carpentier, Fighting Foreclosure, and Bradley Manning
