To Dems on MSNBC re: David Gregory's conflict of interest
Every conversation regarding the economy with David Gregory should begin with this sentence:

"David, your wife is an executive in one of the bailed-out companies, right? The American people need that information before we begin."

The conflict of interest is outrageous and should be exposed.

For that matter, every Andrea Mitchell conversation regarding the economic crisis should begin with the same kind of exposure:

"Just for the record, Andrea, we should note that your husband Alan Greenspan presided over the Federal Reserve for many years."

And for Campbell Brown when discussing national security matters:

"Campbell, we ought to let the American people know that your husband is a former military advisor to the Bush administration."

1. I've seen Andrea Mitchell talk about

how great Greenspan is....without the irony, and I'm like "are you fucking kidding me?" I think that Gregory's wife quit four days ago (I think someone posted that, don't have a source), which makes it even fishier. Mitchell and Brown have their moments though, Gregory NEVER breaks the script...he is the worst.
