Bartlett acknowledges

-the influence of the FOX News echo chamber on keeping people uninformed.
-the problems of income inequality.
-the Republican MO of cutting government to the point that it fails and then pointing to failures as an excuse to eliminate programs.
-the fallacy of supply side economics.

Great interview.

Recommended.

I read his book and it one part apology and one part recognition of reality.

He was cast out because heretics must be burned. It is a religion.

Love me some Bill Moyers. Interesting comments from this guy Bartlett. He hit all the highlights. Pretty much sums up why 99% of the Republicans I know are now either Democrats or Independents AND support Obama.
