Let's Watch the Oscars Together -- Right Now! ...from Michael Moore

Friends, The best movie I saw this year won't be winning any awards tonight at the Oscars. It wasn't even nominated for anything. In fact, it wasn't even shown in the United States. Yet, I'm confident that, if you had had a chance to see it, you would likely agree ... continue reading
