In a sneak peek at "Sicko" broadcast on "Oprah", we see some politically charged footage of how the Bush Administration turned their back on 9/11 rescue workers.

While many pundits believe Sicko will be responsible for opening up debate on health care, and I agree, I also think it will be seriously harmful to Rudy Giuliani, whether he gets the Republican nomination or not. I say this because the story of the 9/11 workers haunts him now and it will completely obliterate him once more Americans have a specific face and story to attach to the trauma. Anyway, that's the power of film I suppose. I can definitely do without Moore overly self-righteous narration sometimes, but his films are so terrific and rabble-rousing that I can almost always look past it. Check out the video to your right and weigh in yourself on how the movie looks to you.
