1. He also interrupted the Newsweek guy
Edited on Mon Aug-10-09 08:16 AM by RDANGELO
when he tried to state that, when the health plan is described with all the details. that the public favors it.

3. He said it over and over
And equated her supposed line about "protesters bringing swastikas" with the ACCUSATION of these people BEING Nazis, when in fact, the speaker was pointing out that the WINGNUTS, following Rush, Palin, Beck and the rest of their overlords, were equating OBAMA and his healthcare plans with Hitler, Nazism, and "death panels."

Even worse than Mika, no less a personage than Lawrence O'Donnell sat there and while he tried some weak responses, he basically let Joe get away with this as well. Even the puketard Halperin was better on the subject.

No one with any sense of ethics would or should appear on this show.

4. Bet a dollar Lawrence O'Donnell's mike was turned off during that or he would have said something
That is my suspicion.

5. Who is mike? Why was he turned off? What would've mike said?

You mean mic (short for microphone)? ;)


Just one of those little niggling misnomers that we audio engineers feel compelled to correct. No offense meant.

:hi:

when she said some on the right are spreading misinformation and lies?

7. Joe is no different than any other right wing liar
But he presents his lies carefully to make it LOOK like he is condemning excesses on "both sides."

All the better to place majority blame on the Democrats, of course.

O'Donnell may have been trying to be polite, but he ended up seeming to endorse the lie.
