Pat & Joe in "sky is falling" overdrive this morning.
Wow, apparently health care is dead, Obama has plummetted in the polls, the protesters are all real, honest, 'Merkins, and the president is doomed.

IOW, nothiing new.

I watch -- for a few minutes while getting ready for work -- so you don't have to.

2. They truly are working for outright collapse of the Obama administration
In most countries, such active, public sedition is actually a crime. But this is CORPORATE-backed, so no problem, I guess.

6. Thanks for your sacrifice... :)
I've quit watching MSNBC (which means I'm not watching any tv news at all anymore), because even on Keith's and Rachel's shows lately, the majority of topics deal with what the rethuglics are saying or doing. It's good and necessary to refute the rethuglics, but in devoting so much time to it, Tweety, Keith and Rachel are inadvertently giving the rethuglics certain significance that they do not deserve, and I'm getting a steady stream of the rethuglic's stupid propaganda and lies whether I want to hear them or not. If I wanted rethuglics all day, all of the time, I'd listen to rush or watch fux.

Who gives a shit what every single MF rethuglic thinks, does, or says about what Obama is doing? Everyone already knows what ever Obama or any Dem does sucks in their eyes, so how about a healthy segment or two devoted to their antics on each show, then devote some time to what the Dems are doing Regardless of, and Without Mentioning the rethuglics.

It would be refreshing to hear about the positives coming from the Obama administration, not always couched in refutation of the rethuglic thought process (or lack thereof), but as n e w s, meritorious of mention all on its own.
