That's Scarborough's message tonight. He's seeing how USELESS the Republican party is when a situation requires anything but POSTURING on the LAZY W RANCH.

5. But they always react like this when it affects them directly
for example, Michael J. Fox.

9. True. But how life affirming to hear.
Desperate, horrible times brings out qualities in people. The worst of the worst will say despicable things. True enough he will probably soon enough go back to rw talking points. For tonight, though, it is a good thing. I will take any signs of humanity I find.

10. Maybe. But more and more people you don't like may come to see the truth
Its important not to turn off on people who before have been contrarian to progressive causes, because you WANT people on your side, and nobody is perfect. Nobody. Everyone comes with a soiled past, if they are human. Let's just hope he has seen the light.
As Martha Stewart would say, its a good thing.

8. That's an awesome quote.
Liberals understand that sometimes tragic things that you can't explain will happen, and that people should live every day like it's the last while still planning for the future. Preparing for the worst once in a while is a smart thing to do.

Imagine smart people with money who actually do something to further humanity and our understanding of our existence. How nice it would be to have this kind of leadership.
