Lawmakers who want to establish a publicly financed national health care system hope a new Michael Moore documentary called "Sicko," which highlights current health care delivery problems, will win converts to their cause.
Moore appeared at a jam-packed Capitol Hill press conference this afternoon to tout his movie and urge support for the United States National Health Insurance Act, authored by Michigan Democratic Rep.
