[calimary]

3. LOVE THIS!!!!!

[DesertRat]

4. Perfect!

[frylock]

5. i say that all the time. if i could line item where my tax dollars went..

I'd pay for education, improvements to infrastructure, job training programs, increased welfare benes, the arts. conservatives can use their taxes for war, farm subsidies, and tax breaks for the 1%. who do you think would reap a greater return on investment?

[shireen]

16. that would be an interesting way to raise awareness

Make a list of all major budget items with current costs. Put a checkbox next to it, and unleash it on social media for people to check off, and see how much is currently being spent.

6. HUGE K & R !!! - Thank You !!!

7. Treasure

John Stewart is a national treasure...keeping the global disgrace known as the Republican Party in furious lather day after day. Every time John strikes a comedic iron a republican gets his flaming lump of coal from one of the denizens of the netherworld.

13. Everyone boosts The West Wing

Well if you must steal, steal from the best

[Sophiegirl]

14. That was awesome!!!! nm

[sarge43]

15. Yes it is.

If you haven't watched The West Wing, especially the first four seasons, you're passing on a brilliant political tutorial.

[demwing]

23. Ah, now I just wanna go watch West Wing all over again...

Someday, maybe someday soon, there will be a Jed Bartlet in our White House. Maybe he'll be a she?

And for what it's worth, I always thought Governor Ritchie was a GW/Jeb Bush mashup (Governor of Florida with an anti-intellectual streak) not a Perry clone, like the video title.

[sarge43]

24. "You make non involument into a zen like thing"

Barlet's slam of Richie. Bush boys to the core.

[demwing]

25. I don't know the exact line, but I remember "That's when I decided to kick your ass"

and I remember being floored.

I want a Dem administration come to kick all asses.

[sarge43]

26. Richie said "Crime, I don't know."

after Barlet told him about CJ's Secret Service agent being murdered. That put Jed into kick ass mode.

17. Historical benchmark

This may go down as the most immoral democracy in world history.

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

18. Nailed it!!!!

Why is this idea never mentioned by prominent Dems?

[JDPriestly]

19. So true.

[butterfly77]
