Can’t get coverage? Use Michael Moore’s name.
I just caught Michael Moore on Chris Matthew’s Hardball… he is encouraging people who are having a hard time with their insurance carriers to use his name to get things moving. He said to tell your insurance providers that you have spoken to Michael Moore, and that if they don’t help you and your sick child, that he is going to feature you in his next DVD. (Keep a look out on Michael Moore’s website for a new insurance card you can carry to demonstrate this in person)
And as Chris Matthew’s observed, nothing like good old blackmail.
