Rachel Maddow Calls Out The Republican Lie That Obama Has Grown Government

[Galraedia]

[HopeHoops]

1. She's so far ahead of the curve that I don't even know how to describe her.

[ashling]

2. If someone is "ahead of the curve" does that mean

they've rounded the bend?

[HopeHoops]

6. Okay, that's rather funny but a REALLY good question.

I always took it to have a statistical meaning, but when you think about it literally, it does sort of mean "rounded the bend".

3. To what extent this lady has influence

I hope she continues to attack Republicans, rather than Democrats.

[Tanelorn]

4. Calls them out. But who is listening

[bjobotts]

5. Repubs saying what repubs want to hear, ignoring the facts...hmm

DUH! Clearly wanting to destroy democracy and replace it with one party rule these goobers are no longer a part of our democracy, just rock throwing fear mongering faces of a corporatocracy.

[TruthBeTold65]

7. Time for the RepubliCONs to move the goal posts.

[SemperEadem]

8. Well, Ezra--what's your excuse then?

if you say that we 'let' these political parties decide what's left and right and we don't hold their feet to the fire..", well, you are a part of that "WE", so what's up with that? All the outlet for which you write are telling you to writers to lay off doing exactly what you're saying?

When we have the NYT's asking the question "does reporting the truth matter?", then that's a bell ringing that is telling all of us the direction in which the NYT plans to take their enterprise. They want storytellers, not reporters and for that, they need to go publish in books, not publish in a newspaper.
