Disgusting that they still consider themselves the party of fiscal responsibility, and the fact that people still believe it.

... he's probably popular with the younger crowd. He talks entirely too fast, (like this ) which strangely is a distraction to me.

The in depth discussions and people he had around the table were fabulous. The hour show is too small for the type of amazing intellectual discussion that occurred on the weekends. Now, it's like having a male Rachel Maddow on before her who talks fast and has less interesting guests, and he talks faster because there's less time for analytical thinking.

And now, I don't watch Up with that Kornball (kornaski I think is his name). He tends to be slanted right, his line up of guests aren't as good, and it's like having a smarter version of Morning Joe... And because Chris is missing, I forget about Melissa too often.

I'll catch the vids online, the MSM annoys me too much. I simply can't stand all the breaks, for starters.

The rallying point should be to point out to every one of their supporters the individual burden we each now have to pay off that debt and the number of jobs and lives undoubtedly lost because of this.

Don't call them Tea Partiers or Teabaggers. They are the Tealiban or the Tea Taxers. And if you encounter a Tea Taxer demand they pay give you their share of the Tea Tax they extracted! It should be between $500 and $1000 for each Tea Taxer.

20. Hmmm ...a sequester over $83b - $24b = $59b of unnessesary sequestration?

Is the sequestration even valid yet? IMO ...it is 100% bullshit ...or are they addressing it yet? If they are I certainly haven't heard anything about it. WTF ...is it permanent now?
