1. WOW !!!

Johnathan really laid out how the fix is ongoing @ the WP.
A very brave moment for him and the press .
MSNBC days may be numbered, but they are going down fighting
along with Colbert and the Daily Show cast.
Voices of reason and analysis might be a rare commodity moving
forward.
Support your favorite pod caster and blogger. They are on our
side of this disaster we are facing.
