The most popular AlterNet videos of the year are an eclectic bunch. They feature plenty of animation and a rather animated Tim Robbins. There's shocking footage (US troops attacking Iraqi sheep with grenades) and probing insight (Noam Chomsky). What they all have in common is that they provoked a lot of laughter, anger or discussion this year.

Michael Moore slams Blitzer and CNN for their lies about universal health care and his film "Sicko."
2) The Cartoon Mitt Romney Doesn't Want You To See
This piece of propaganda may or may not be inaccurate, but it definitely would persuade or provoke a lot of people to be uncomfortable with Mitt Romney.
3) Colbert Says Impeach Bush Now

4) Tim Robbins: "If You F**k Things Up You Can No Longer Be An Expert"

7) Evangelist Chuck Missler Disproves Evolution With Jar Of Peanut Butter
