So, Fred Thompson doesn't want to debate Michael Moore on health care. Yet, he will take a cheap shot at Moore and Cubans by citing the case of a documentary film maker being subjected to electro-shock therapy by the Cuban mental health system.
I wonder what Mr. Thompson thinks about the treatment of Jose Padilla, whose lawyers describe as incapable of assisting in his own defense due to our governments systematic torture for him over the last 5 years?
What does he think about the Guantanamo detainees who have killed themselves in a Kafkaesque quest to clear themselves of charges they are not allowed to see, without legal representation? What about the "Gitmo" detainees force-fed when attempting hunger strike protests. I'm sorry Mr. Thompson, but the USA has no "moral high ground" for you to make snide and condescending remarks from.
