When did Tweety grow a spine?
I actually enjoyed Chris Mathews(Tweety)calling out the think tank idiot over the lower taxes helps everyone bald faced lie.
If they have their way then the only entitlements will be Welfare for the Wealthy and mass graves for the poor.

for the wealthiest for 30 years and what did they do with them?

They ran away with them to create jobs oversees or to sit on their mountains of CASH! For THIRTY YEARS!

And if they were to get MORE tax cuts now, WHERE do you think they'd go create JOBS, huh???? Mexico???

Now, everytime the GOVERNMENT wants to create JOBS to restaure our falling infrastructure or help the middle class, since the wealthiest refuse to do, what do you think the Teabaggers in Congress have done since the first day they were elected, huh?

Too bad the time was up.

Hello Mr. Mathews: PEOPLE PAY INTO SS and Medicare for Christ sake,
these are NOT gov't gifts, they are NOT like welfare.

Chris is too bright to not know this, so it is disturbing that he still refers
to these tried and true and very effective programs as "entitlements".

Otherwise, he did great.
