Healthy debate?  

The GOP isn’t just misguided, according to controversial liberal filmmaker Michael Moore — it’s downright satanic.

Moore appeared via satellite at the National Press Club on Tuesday to promote the DVD release of his documentary “Sicko” and push for Rep. JohnConyers’ national health insurance bill, HR 676.

“Remember, it’s 676,” said Moore. “666 is the other people.” Snap!

He did soften the blow a bit later, adding, “I think most Republican candidates do care about sick children. I just think they care more about the money from their contributors” in the insurance industry.

“To those of you who sided against the children of America” on the recent votes to expand the SCHIP program, Moore said, “enjoy your last year in Congress.”

Immediately after the news conference, a group of nurses and doctors took a van up to Capitol Hill, where they distributed copies of the DVD to every congressional office.
