Sheldon Whitehouse is magnificent batting down their holier-than-thou newfound fiscal concern for the American people.

8. I'm sorry, but
their relationship on that "show" is downright creepy. It just gives me the willies.

Makes one wonder what goes on in private between the two.

2. They were spewing that corporate slop yesterday
My husband had it on, it was so disgusting I had to go upstairs. It seems they have managed to come up with a poll they can twist to try to say that Americans don't want health care either because of the deficit. Just crap, their whole act.

3. It makes me ill.
I wish Eugene Robinson, who is on now, would ask them which people they think it's okay to let die.

4. What they are saying is that health care for everyone is the morally
correct thing to do, but hell, it costs too much money to what is morally right. Proving again that for Repukes, it's only about money and profit. They could care less about what is morally right.

6. Almost as much as when other millionaires
want to mandate what they call 'affordable' purchases, with no mention of price, just mention of the force of law that will be used to make people buy what they might not want or be able to afford.
Almost as much as when millionaires refuse to discuss the one reform that will really work, and insist that we elected them to sell insurance to us.
I'd never watch that show. I get enough of that sort of crap direct from the elected officials.

10. Perfect! You know who I like on Morning Joe? - Dylan Ratigan
Edited on Fri Jun-19-09 08:42 AM by Phoebe Loosinhouse
He comes right out and says, yes. The rich should pay more in taxes.

Then the blood drains from Joes face and he scowls like he can't believe what a turncoat Ratigan is towards the common cause of the wealthy.
