3. John Avlon sets up the old discredited false equivalency.

And everyone piles onto it - nobody questions it.

The fact is Olbermann is not the anti-Beck. Alan Grayson is not the anti-Bachmann. The lunatics on the right are the base, and they're led by people like Beck and Bachmann who lie to them as a intentional strategy by the GOP. And the anger generated by the lies and broadcast by the RW corporate media is an essential (though manufactured) part of that strategy.

All the while the so-called "crazies" - the marginalized left - are reacting to the course of the national discussion set by the RW corporate media, by exposing the lies of the right wing, telling the truth about them, and only displaying appropriate anger when they are marginalized & ignored by the Dems - mostly because the RW corporate media ignores them.

4. He is the imaginary middle. The middle of the false equivalency

of today's corporate media. If you speak truth to power like Olbermann, you're a wingnut on the left. If you tell lies and engage in hate speech on the right like Beck or Breitbart, you are a wingnut. However, reality says speaking truth to power and telling political lies are not the same thing.

5. Glad to see that Eliot Spitzer

is emerging from being under the bus...his earlier criticism of Wall Street has been more than validated.

6. And was most likely the reason behind the investigation and/or revelation

of the escort service.

7. Yes, at least more and more issues are being acknowledged by the MSM

that just a few years ago were called conspiracy nut theories. Naomi Wolf was never allowed to even finish a sentence, at least here she was allowed to get her concepts on the air. We have to keep hammering the issues until they become mainstream, and have to be more resilient than the RW corporate shills. It has been so frustrating for the left, but it helps to notice the slow crawl of some progress.....

10. Thank you! n/t

12. Oath of office

The President takes an oath to "keep America safe"?

Since when has the mission of our government to "keep us safe"?

All "keeping us safe" does is justify the government taking away our constitutional rights. "Keeping us safe" is the scoundrels justification for turning America into a fascist police state!

I do not think the Founders wanted us to do this!

13. You are correct.

The founders explicitly did not want us to do this.
