Congressman Jim Moran on Ed Shultz
In case you're interested it seems that Jim Moran is a regular on Ed Shultz. He was just talking about a counter rally he sponsored against changes to social security. So if you want to keep up with Jim (who can) try to catch Ed now and then.

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW
In scathing interview, Democrat says Bush Social Security plan won't help; Dubs Cheney 'ass kisser'

By John Byrne | RAW STORY



In an exclusive interview with RAW STORY, Rep. Jim Moran (D-VA) slammed President Bush and Congressional Republicans' attempts to take on Social Security, saying he believes Bush has surrounded himself with those who agree with him and has lost touch with America.

<snip>

"I think the Republicans basically resent the poor and they figure if we can get the poor investing in the stock market, maybe they’ll start thinking like Republicans," Moran said. "God help us."

The Virginian said he believes that the Republican base has used Bush to push Social Security reform, a project that he says is essentially one to axe Social Security.

"I think they realized that they’re never going to find anybody who is as willing to carry out the agenda of these Republican right wing nuts and reverse the course of American progress," he remarked. "This is their chance. This is their chance to cut taxes down to the bone. This is their chance to repeal Social Security and to bankrupt Medicare and Medicaid."

<snip>

"He doesn’t read any books, and he doesn’t talk with people that don’t already agree with him," he added. "He’s surrounded himself with ideological sycophants. And the biggest ass-kisser of all is Dick Cheney." (Red State Dem saying this, Alert! He talks like this all the time..."walking tall for our Party.)

NEW LEADERS FOR A NEW DEMOCRATIC PARTY

PS. Stop with the anti-Red State stuff. This guy is a red meat eating liberal in a Red State!
