1. I miss Keith

and I don't watch ESPN ever but that was a beautiful tribute to a friend and colleague as it should be done. Well done Keith. RIP Mr. Scott.

3. I would have agreed

several months ago but I got sick of "the GOP are horrible" talk on MSNBC. Yes, we know they are horrible but they sounded exactly the opposite of Fox that I just had to stop watching it. I liked Rachel but she repeats herself so much it got annoying. I am a died in the wool liberal to the day I die but we need to figure out why everyone stayed home on Nov 4th and we have what we have in Congress now with no help from them. How the hell did that happen? Because instead of supporting the President, the liberals avoided him and got handed their ass on election day. MSNBC didn't help the cause at all. I don't follow personalities on tv. I want facts. I want solutions and all that bitching got us the worst congress ever.

5. It is all still "corporate media." The solution that I am fighting for is one that could turn

things around if enough Liberals would wake up and support it. The single biggest cause of our current problems is the ability of the wealthy to buy our politicians. Everything wrong with our government starts there. In order to set things right, we have to stop their ability to bribe our politicians.
Bernie Sanders is on record stating that his number one issue is getting the money out of politics. He supports Publicly Funded Elections and an end to the "Revolving Door" between business and government. We need to help Bernie fight for this issue and rally around him. Those that think we just need to elect more Democrats ignore what happens to these Democrats when they get to Washington. They realize that in order to stay in Washington they must get corporate money. Then they slide down the slippery slope and Represent Donors instead of their Constituants.

6. Preach it

You are so right and I'll vote for Bernie or Warren or Franken if he ran too. Overturn Citizen's United is the best place to start. We HAVE to do this.
