Is there a transcript of Moore on CNN with Wolf Blitzer?

[NewJeffCT]

I need it to respond to a Freeper who said that Moore avoided the questions on the facts of Sicko and kept talking about the war...

Thanks

or something like that.

5. freeper is wrong (again) -- Crooks and Liars has video, Moore clearly addresses gupta

Freepers seem to have some sort of reading/viewing/listening comprehension problem. I personally think it is deliberate, and learned from RNC blast faxes etc.

Links (video not transcripts -- but it is clear Moore refutes Gupta)

6. I can almost guess what happened

Rush Limbaugh played Blitzer asking a question, and then cut out Moore's initial response and gave his listeners a bit Moore going off about Iraq - and then claimed that Moore was avoiding the facts and the questions.

And then, what Limbaugh played got picked up by somebody on Fox, and by Glen Beck, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Neil Boortz, etc, etc.

Of course, that is just speculation. Maybe Rush didn't do something like that. (But, I'd suspect we'd have headlines about Hell freezing over today if that were true)

3. that is not true, Michael did both. He basically attacked the lying media for

lying about his movies and lying about the war. The avoider guy was gupta who kept nitpicking about what number Cuba was instead of all the people without insurance and how bad the system was...a typical karl rove game.

4. He had nothing, otherwise

there really is no legitimate defense against some sort of national health care plan.

8. exactly...gupta and all the rest have nothing on Michael Moore and Sick so they

have to invent something...just like they did with F911. Find a little nitpick and disqualify the whole movie...but since they can't even find an erroneous nitpick, they have to lie.
