Video: Michael Moore Admits Democrats Are Owned By Wall Street
To be fair he says the same for Republicans which though undoubtedly true, is not really news in the same way as Moore attacking his own party. He is not alone in this sentiment; Bill Moyers made the exact same point to Bill Maher recently. We and our commenters have also been grinding this particular axe since the day we launched the site.
The banking oligarchy runs the show in Washington regardless of which side has the majority. Geithner is but Paulson with hair and more active hands. Even conservative darling Sarah Palin is a flaming bailout socialist. Sadly, Wall Street and its powerful banking lobby own the majority of politicians from both sides. It's merely a coin-flip for last place among the disgraced. Just how the bankers planned it 120 years ago. A pox on everyone but a resilient few. An outstanding 2-minute clip.

Moore and Jay Leno broadcast Sep. 15, 2009. Goldman Sachs, Hank Paulson and Senator Chris Dodd are singled out for abuse.

Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." -- Benito Mussolini
Starting to sound eerily like the system that has been building in America since WW2, doesn't it. General Smedley Butler may have saved us from the corporate coup, but the plan has proceeded none the less.
"Go for Capitalism or Go for Broke?"
"Two documentaries have recently been released about the current economic crisis. The first is Michael Moore's film, Capitalism: A Love Story and the second is Michael Covel's Broke: The New American Dream." http://mises.org/story/3762
Never heard of Broke before the review... sounds good.
On a Michael Moore note, paraphrasing Doug Casey: You know, Michael Moore is physically obese, intellectually dishonest, and philosophically unsound (what a pathetic combination – he should run for Congress).
