50 States Held Solidarity Rallies This Weekend

"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 joins Laura in studio for part one of a two-part conversation about the war on working people in America. He notes that it started in 1981 with Reagan's attack on the air traffic controllers, and it's mostly targeted the poor, as with Clinton's welfare reform. But the attacks on middle class families have finally reached a point where people aren't going to take it anymore.

Every time I watch this (3 times already), tears come to my eyes. Tears of joy, relief and thankfulness that America will survive.

While it's entertaining to watch fashion and fluff and essays about new puppy's, Bill Moyers is saying it loud and clear on health care reform:

And let's all bless Michael Moore and his blatant honesty. His new film Capitalism: A Love Story debuts tonight at the Venice Film Festival. Will some of our numbed out Americans get the picture now? Otherwise we will have to storm the capitol and physically throw the bums out. Count me in!
