It came as no surprise today that Michael Moore exposed himself as a card carrying member of The Cult of Che.

  You see, Mr. Moore wants to bring Fidel Castro to the Oscar Ceremony.  That would be a very touching scene, wouldn't it?  I can see it now...Moore goes up on stage to accept his award for Best Documentary.  His acceptance speech goes off on a rant about how the Cuban healthcare system is like, totally better than America's healthcare system.  Moore looks down at Castro with glistening eyes.  The camera cuts to a close up of 'ol Fidel, slumped in his theater seat, looking like he just woke up.  He gives Moore a grin...maybe a thumbs up?  Moore chokes up and says, "I want to thank Fidel Castro..." and before he can finish, the entire theater stands and gives Castro an ovation.

  Sound implausible?  Come on, do you really think Fidel Castro would have any trouble getting into the United States if he really wanted to?  If you happen to watch the ceremony, be on the lookout for a scraggly old man with a nappy beard who's wearing crumpled army fatigues.

  And the irony of this is that Fidel Castro threw several documentarians like Mr. Moore into his Cuban prisons.  As well as writers and other artists, simply because he didn't agree with them.

  But I guess Michael Moore doesn't see any problem with that.  According to Michael and Fidel, as long as you think like a socialist, then your right to free speech is warranted.  But if you have different views...

  Speaking of "different views," a good place to find a different take on the Oscars is at this forum.  You can log onto it's live play-by-play analysis of the Oscar ceremony as you watch it on Sunday night.  The forum is sponsored by the Liberty Film Festival.

And the winner is...

  "Hello.  I'm Michael Moore.  You gotta believe me when I tell you that the Federal Government will make a wonderful HMO.  Of course, I'll be going to the Mayo Clinic, but trust me, socialized medicine will be good for you."
