ROUND 2: Michael Moore on The Sean Hannity Show, Friday, October 9th, 2009

Here's round two of Michael Moore on The Sean Hannity Show. It was recorded live-to-tape on the same day as round one of the showdown, but Hannity decided to break it into two separate shows. I suppose he likes to take his beatings piecemeal. Enjoy round two of the TV appearance that turned Fox News viewers against Sean Hannity.

That they rubbish our NHS to add colour to their fantasy (and notice the turncoat Hannity referred to was the UKIP-courting self-promoter Daniel Hannan, whose party is currently smearing the Welsh NHS) just rubs salt into the wound. The Dallas Buyers Club film got all the press attention for the LGBT issues it raised, but what it was mainly about was a corrupt government-endorsed privatised medical sector that was actively making patients sicker. Sure it took dramatic licence but that core message rings more true now than ever before. If that's not a national emergency then I don't know what is.

That Cuban "hospital" footage was hilarious in a very sad way. Just when I was wondering "if this is real 'undercover' footage of a hospital in Cuba, where is everybody?...", Moore brought up the exact same question and rightfully laughed at Fox News rhetorically asking if they're really serious. They splice a quick shot of patients in a single room and then return to what looks like an abandoned, dilapidated building (certainly not an active hospital) with literally nobody around. Most people know that Cuba has spent decades investing into especially educating Cubans to be doctors in their home country to send them all across the world, and it's one country (as small as it is) that has no shortage of doctors or nurses. Hannity and Fox have literally no shame or integrity to misrepresent such footage on a major news network. It's outright lying. Honestly, it's quite boring to watch Hannity debate anybody, even someone as entertaining as Moore, precisely because it's not really a debate. It's an exercise for a smug Hannity to throw intellectually dishonest "gotcha" questions where he promptly changes the subject and moves along when someone calls him on his bullshit over and over. There's nothing intellectually stimulating about watching Hannity; he exists only for bitter, angry conservatives to have him say exactly what they want to hear. It's dumbed-down, oversimplified talking points that have no place or purpose but to further condition Americans under this paradigm of two-party, Democrats vs. Republicans, us vs. them politics that possess no interest in actually learning anything. It's Republican porn and Hannity is a GOP porn star. I liked when Moore asked, "Why do you even have me on?". Even he realized what a bullshit waste of oxygen it is to appear on Hannity's show.

phoenix21studios it absolutely is bankrupt. the government just spends money and runs up the deficit to keep financing it.

[@phoenix21studios]

It is a logical impossibility for Social Security to go bankrupt. It’s not a pension fund into which you put your money when you are young and from which you draw when you are old. It’s an immediate transfer from workers today to retirees today. That’s what it has always been and that’s what it has to be-there is no other possible way for it to work.

[@rlyons6654]

phoenix21studios if it was a pension fund it might work. theres no way it can work. we are 17 trillion dollars in debt. how do you think these problems will be fixed? I'm seriously curious; not trying to fight or argue but i am curious about the left perspective on how we solve these economic problems

[@phoenix21studios]

What do you mean it cant work, it works every day, it has been working every day for over 50+ years. Their are more people working than people drawing social security, there is also a limit to the amount you can draw out. You get based on what you paid. Thats how it works.

[@adrianfisher3349]

***** I'm not bashing government here (but I certainly could). We do have private health insurance here but because of government interference in the market it costs much more than it should do. If people grow up and know they're not responsible for their own health because if X happens the government will pay for it, until they find out it won't because it would cost too much, the waiting lists are too long or because they decided to not build facilities in the country for it (as was the recent case when loving parents took their child out of hospital against the wishes of the doctors and fled to somewhere in Europe to seek treatment. The hospital contacted the police and had them tracked down and treated like paedophiles when all they wanted was to get health case for their daughter that would save her life. They were arrested and treated like criminals which disgusted me). If we had a range of options from which to choose such as private health insurance and a healthcare fund like I heard was becoming more popular in the US before Obama ruined the system with his illness insurance system known as Obamacare, we'd be better off. People that looked after themselves would have to pay less than those that didn't so there wouldn't be any need for government to try and regulate things. The free market would ensure that costs were lowered but quality of care rose. I must point out here though that your characterisation of the UK health situation is a little unfair (let's ignore battered chocolate bars or balls of butter that are popular in Scotland for now though). It's not as bad as you said and I was born here. I always seek ways to treat myself if I get injured because I prefer natural remedies to those concocted in a lab somewhere.

[@ItsSpecialHands]

Same with us in Britain. I have never, NEVER met an Englishman, a Scotsman, a Welshman or an Irishman that has gone to the US for any form of health care when we have the NHS here. The only health tourism I see is some of us go to Hungary for their cheap and excellent dental care.

[@jpol1439]

Thousands of Canadians who have free medical care in Canada are flocking to the USA to pay for it each year, and thousands more would do the same if they could afford it. Michael's movie Sicko was good although it missed a lot of problems and exaggerated others because he didn't know the full story and it could take ages to learn the massive missing parts. In the USA I believe people can get a referral for a second opinion, I believe, whereas in Canada this is nearly unheard of. In the USA I believe Americans can also get copies of their medical records, whereas in Canada this is nearly impossible without paying a lot of money for them. Even under the Access to Information Act, most will still be missing because dozens of medical records simply get lost or disappear. Once I stayed in a hospital emergency room for 3 days waiting for a hospital bed to become available, (and yes, this is common in some hospitals). Standard waiting time on a normal evening in most emergency rooms is about 2 to 5 hours. If they can't find your records (which happens very often, that time may be increased to 13 hours because they may have to take tests again. If you are waiting for a bed in a short term care centre and go in on a weekend, that wait can be 23 hours. Ambulance service is probably the best in the system, although even they are often tied up waiting in hospitals for patients to see a doctor, instead of being able to get out on the road to help others. After 3 days of looking at four walls in emergency, I checked myself out because I felt so filthy I feared I would die. Even my lymph glands were swelling. During that entire time I got about a half inch of toothpaste and 1/2 tablespoon of foam soap to use. Canada needs desperately to take up collections for soap and toothpaste for hospitals. At one time lottery money went straight to hospitals but now it goes to mostly other places and hospitals have to run their own lotteries. Yes, Canada has some good medical benefits with regard to testing, and you can probably be killed with as much radiation and chemo as you desire if you get cancer, but treatment for other things can be hard to come by since the entire system seems to now be tightly controlled and run by insurance companies. Free medical care paid for by wealthier people sounds like a great idea but there is still a problem in that the WEALTHY (as well as government employees, those on worker's compensation, hockey players, doctors, and teachers and/or friends of medical staff), will always have PRIORITY access. Women, (especially single and unemployed full time) are generally on the bottom of the priority list for any sort of medical care, although medical problems for them can be harder than for anyone else because they have no support. That's because without support, their recovery time and places are also more expensive and insurance companies don't want to pay the added cost. I'm not sure Michael realizes that society is based on the fact that "money buys everything" and without it, people are basically left out of the system no matter what dreams are put into place. Just because people pay to supply free medical care for the poor, that doesn't mean the rich won't still steal most of that care for themselves even when they can very well afford to pay for it. Most of the poor are denied medical care for serious problems until their illnesses are so severe they can no longer be reversed. Michael's ideals are wishfully dreamy and good willed like the ideas of many Liberals, but they tend to not work. No matter which way you look at it, the biggest fish will always consume the smaller, and will do so even when their bellies are so full they can hardly swim.

@@jpol1439 I have never, and I don't know anyone who's ever had any experience similar to what you described in a Canadian hospital.

However, my American cousin had to put off divorcing her husband when she found him cheating on her so she could stay on his medical insurance because she had cancer. She would have died otherwise, because it would have cost her thousands that she didn't have without that insurance.

[@shavenhobo3086]

I'm from the UK and I was laughing at this!

[@andrewe3165]

See how Hannity chickened out of the 60% bet.

[@2mextreme]

I wish we had more people like Michael Moore in the world.

[@brittinimartini]

When Hannity says you have the last word, I encourage u to have a good laugh.

[@Hotspur560]

Did fox seriously think that "hospital" footage was gonna work??

[@smeechdog]

Ahahahhaa - that "hospital" clip was hilarious! Genuinely awesome. I wish I taught media bias and manipulation - because that, right there, was textbook!

[@grandtourbear9497]

Being from Australia, I'm truly blessed regarding healthcare. My wife had breast cancer, from start to finish, we didn't have to worry about cost.

[@woodywoodlstein9519]

offtodamoon what are you talking about? Are you dumb?

[@grandtourbear9497]

Hey guys, I know that taxes attribute to the Medicare system, I'm simply stating that in a dire situation, such as mine, we didn't have to come up with thousands of dollars, to get treatment. I pay my taxes, and as a consequence, I feel blessed to have the help we needed. I assumed you would know, that I knew about tax money funding healthcare, that's all.

[@grandtourbear9497]

Can we agree that michael Moore isn't the man that should be talking about healthcare or gun control. Such a fukn hypocrite.

[@grandtourbear9497]

Also Sean Hannity made around $29 million in 2016. He's good, but far out.

[@chuletaization]

This video was made in 2009 and Hannity is saying Social Security will be bankrupt next year in 2010. Now its 2016 and my parents just got their check for November.

[@magoo1950]

Paul Romano And what is his solution? Cut taxes for the wealthy and eliminate it. On one hand he is using fear to undermine the program and scare people, on the other he wants to end it anyways. This continual worshipping of supply side economics is interesting as well. After all of the tax cuts for the upper brackets the last 35 years, wages have stagnated and income inequality has sky rocketed. He should have asked Hannity to explain why the 09 economy meltdown happened despite the Bush tax cuts.

[@larrymattera6678]

Social Security was funded by our government borrowing from itself look it up.

[@ronjeremy65]

I can't believe they edited footage to a vacant hospital. That's editing 101

[@gdreyer]

Michael Moore, the king of appeal to emotion fallacy...

[@triquepersonalwork6369]

I lived in Cuba, and I can tell you first hand, the citizens of Havana always talk about what a joke the healthcare is there. There are medicine shortages galore, and Cuba doesn't send doctors to other countries, the doctors leave Cuba to practice in other countries because they can't make a good living there.

[@wedgeantilles7731]

He never let Michael even finish ONE sentence!

[@Herbwise]

The question about how much of one’s income somebody should pay in taxes is the wrong question. How much of the money that the govt spends into the economy should be taxed back in order to prevent inflation or balance the economy.

[@funnygirl977]

"They're laughing at you, they're literally laughing at you. You look ridiculous."

[@MattJames1958]

Donna Shackelford We were laughing, very hard

[@phoenix21studios]

Here we are 2016. 71 months in a row of private Job Growth.

[@maxcohen13]

+phoenix21studios Ebb and flow, sport. It's just ebb and flow.

[@bsm6776]

No 71 months of heavy regulations and taxes and the FED printing money

[@maxcohen13]

***** Well, that too.

[@phoenix21studios]

regulations aren't bad. Take a look at Flint Michigan. Poison water because people neglected safety.

[@maxcohen13]

phoenix21studios He said _heavy_ regulations, as in overstepping the bounds of government's role. We pay government to handle things like water regulation.

[@IantheLiberal]

Sean Insanity is such a cartoon corporate villain.

[@eyemastervideo]

I think Moore is doing good. He might not be right about everything, but he's right on most.

[@chucknchar]

Michael you can't fix insensitivity.

[@teresanorris2431]

What does Michael Moore say about Obama now?

[@spanishcobra805]

Teresa Norris 4 more years, please!

[@spanishcobra805]

Woody Woodlstein i responded to a comment made by teresa norris. too confusing?

[@jsequine927]

My friend just moved back to Washington from the Netherlands where he had affordable health care (about 500 euros/per year), housing subsidies and received a small health subsidy. He's 28 and applied for health insurance as soon as he returned. He got a letter about a month later saying 'thank you for your application, unfortunately we're not able to cover you right now but please try again in the new year'. Great system.

[@slikdarelic]

the power of editing is shown in full force in this vid.. thats why u cant trust tv, or anything.

[@mamster233]

Who do you trust then?

[@JamesSmith-bb3tm]

not coorporate owned media.

[@congajoel]

So where do you think the advertisements should go?

[@danpalmer8235]

If I was American I'd be bankrupt because of my medical issues, I'm extremely proud of the NHS, it's absolutely brilliant

[@danpalmer8235]

You can also choose to have private healthcare if you want to, I don't see the point but it's an option

[@ZachTheRantingGuy]

I am in 2023 and fast forward 15 years later, Sean Hannity is still full of what makes the grass turn green.

[@jacktrayes2456]

Being British I will never understand why some Americans think that we don’t love the NHS. We couldn’t be more proud of it

[@htetsiehta3335]

NHS is so much better than the american bs

[@htetsiehta3335]

and yes, I am laughing at him!!!!!!

[@TheChroniclesOfFab]

just look at your teeth, then say that again. And, unless you've ever been here then your opinion is invalid

[@htetsiehta3335]

Julian Roach I've got great teeth thanks, and guess what, I am 'here' as you put it . . . So . . . You're the one with the invalid point. Thank you and farewell!

[@TheChroniclesOfFab]

well how would you know how good NHS is?

[@htetsiehta3335]

Julian Roach I'm British, I'm in America. There we go, thank you and goodbye.

[@TheRelativeUnknown]

Did Hannity seriously show an abandoned hospital building as his rebuttle? With no patients or doctors?

[@rickymallard7837]

Yup! And then they cut to a scene of a nice looking room with some patients in it before cutting back to the bordered up husk of a building...

[@harrisonbrand8985]

i've had a personal tour of a cuban clinic in haiti and interviewed 2 of the cuban doctors. this was 2 cuban doctors and 3 haitian doctors serving a town of 3,000. the clinic certainly wasn't glamorous, but these 5 doctors alone were delivering babies, treating malaria, prescribing medication, etc. based on the cuban healthcare system and they were incredibly knowledgeable individuals with more well-rounded medical training than most any american doctors you will find today. the most profound thing i realized was that in this absence of pursuing the medical field based on both income ability to go to school and the pursuit of more money out of the field was that these doctors were incredibly passionate purely to pursue the treatment of others, and willing to endure highly difficult education to achieve this. quite a contrast with the american medical industry.

[@walker11288]

As an Australian I find it an absolute joke that America has no public health care system.

[@LeGioNnd]

America is treating their people as a resource, they're slowly loosing their humanity. Look at wealthy European states that have social benefits. It works and people are happier and healthier.

[@povelvieregg165]

As a European living in one of these well functioning states married to an American, it really hurts watching how America is destroying itself. I see how hard it is for people and relative we know there. So many problems they have we know would never have existed if they lived where we live. We have tried convincing them to move, but I think it is hard for many to realize that things can actually be considerably better outside of the US. I got American colleagues, who after living here for a while are like "you know I never realized how cruel the American system can be." People just take it for granted that this is how things are supposed to work.

[@pakko33]

+Povel Vieregg 👍 yup

[@joeywalker9061]

TheGodOfSmallThings compare theyre populations to ours and then compare the number of people who dont work with our number of people who dont work and youll understand why it wont work here.

[@MaghoxFr]

Europe isn't doing well at all. You and America are falling fast.

[@MaghoxFr]

brassmonkeyjew It must be awesome to live in your rainbow bubble. Alas, I live in reality. The only country in Europe with some chance to grow out of debt and regain economic freedom is the UK.

[@mcpure9083]

What? Wait was Hannity serious with that video?!

[@LindaCasey]

Now I remember why I like Michael Moore.

[@davidfrison2765]

Micheal Moore isn't used to being on the receiving end of the browbeating... He's used to having the camera work in his favor

[@centeristextreamist1037]

I'm English the NHS is fine, i have had free asthma medecine for twenty years saving me tens of thousands of pounds :D except in the capital where there's too many people lol :)

[@PurushaDesa]

The Republican argument is "Why should I wait forever in a queue?" The obvious response is : the waiting times are manageable and at least we don't tell you to fuck off home if you don't have enough money.

[@centeristextreamist1037]

PurushaDesa and its not going to cost like $500 for some bloody inhalers, republicans would say I'm stealing someone else's services, i say I didn't choose this shit i was born like it.

[@jimbeaver27]

The problem is if the medical and insurance industry lost the Health Care cash cow the entire US economy would fall apart.

[@Thefreshp]

Yup.

[@yohannes6369]

It will be too painful and full of hardships to change the system-which no body is willing to take.

[@jimbeaver27]

Ya, it will be too painful to the rich who control and milk the medical system.

[@yohannes6369]

Even to the working class. Most of them work in the rich chain control companies so they more likely to be fired-if that's necessary-to maximize profits. Just like they doing with Obama Care-they laying off or cutting hours- so that they don't have to provide insurance.

[@jimbeaver27]

No profits in universal healthcare. People in the medical insurance industry and some lawyers would have to look for other work. They're just parasites anyway. See there would be no more medical insurance, everyone would get healthcare period. I know, it's a hard concept to grasp.

[@salvadorvizcarra769]

What? A hospital in ruins and dirty in Cuba? A Hospital? And where are the patients, the nurses, the doctors, the equipment, the serums, the medicines, wheelchairs? What? Beds without mattresses, without pillows, without sheets. Bathrooms without water. Windows without glass. A hospital? And immediately, they put the image of two bedridden patients who could well have been AIDS patients in a hospital in Tijuana, Mexico. LOL Also, it is not mentioned that Cuba has suffered from an Economic Blockade for 60 years. And finally, Cuba is NOT La Habana. Cuba is a country. La Habana is a little dot on a map.

[@Karemaker]

The part with the hospital footage cracks me up.
