Gah! Mitch McConnell on George Stepanopoulis.

I soooooo hate that guy, he's going on about spending too much, "entitlements", etc. I can't believe he is even getting this much air time. I really want to smack the living shit out of him. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.....

1. MSM is like a cattle prod to liberals.

Boycott. It feels so much better and actually does some good.

2. Good advice. I rarely watch it. Now I know why.

3. the Tortoise has never held a private sector job and

he has been in Congress since 1985
so we can blame the Tortoise for the runaway spending
I guess he has spent the money he needed to spend so now it is time to stop spending

talk about an ass

4. How come he's not talking about the costs of the military and subsidizing big oil and corporations?

All ANYBODY talks about is cutting entitlements (which aren't really entitlements.)
Even Dems don't ask or request cutting something else.

5. You should have heard him on MTP

He said the same rehearsed lines over and over. Instead of answering questions (that Gregory surprisingly asked) he just regurgitated the memorized statements.

At one point, when asked if he was in agreement to hold the debt ceiling hostage, he was silenced and after what must have been for him an excruciating lull (I actually enjoyed the dumbstruck silence) he started the same line he said at least 6 times in the previous 10 minutes.

Gregory actually pushed back when he stated that Obama had not ever tried to bring forth cuts in spending.

His refusal to answer questions was obvious and he looked the like the lying fool he always has been.

I have hope. The obvious nonsensical lies are not as easily excepted. The looking glass (where reality is upside down and backwards) is cracking and the truth is closer to squeezing through.

8. Happy you have hope.

I am very concerned that McConnell and the fuckheads in Congress under Cantor's command, will gladly lead this country into destruction rather then paying the bills THEY authorized and thanks to their unnecessary wars and tax breaks for millionaires, they created. I hope you are right and sanity will win out but we are dealing with crazy people who have no sense of anything except their own egos.

McConnell behaved like a dope on both shows that I watched today- demonstrating his worthlessness as usual.

6. Hear that, senior citizens (or those nearing retirement):

Republicans are coming for your "entitlements"! Might want to reconsider voting for them next time.....and the next time after that......

7. all i could think of was the movie Sixteen Candles...

i was expecting him to just say out of nowhere-

"george, there's a drunken Chinaman on your lawn..."
