| I ran across a post from Lauren Turner, who works for Google as an

| contains two posts, she assures potential advertisers that Google
| can help protect them from the negative impact of Michael Moore’s
| just released film “Sicko,” which does to the U.S healthcare system
| what Fahrenheit 9/11 did to the Bush administration.
