1. Mark Haines
finally finds his goonies. It's about fucking well time. He seems to be the only one in that crew not looking for a job at Fox.

5. The right wing knew this
all along but they will go to any lengths to savage unions or those that support unions.

6. Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you. This is what real reporting looks like!
I heard this BS about the Jones Act come from my boss and wanted to scream. I feel like I'm always having to do the research myself to get to the bottom of any given allegation or story. It drives me totally crazy and I don't have time. That's why we have people who get paid to do it for a living. Why can't they just do their jobs like this guy did. I hope this man got lots of kudos for doing his homework and challenging the BS. Maybe that's what we need to do, find a way to reward those who do their job like this guy just did.

10. And Mark gets genuinely outraged over each egregious act of criminality as it is exposed. I really
like the way Mark approaches the thorny issues of the day and as lagniappe, his sidekick is not hard on the eyes. :P

is one of these useless assholes who thinks that America will become competitive only when the last real productive person who works a real job gets thrown out of work.

The wingnuts eat this shit up.
