*****Heads up DU!*****
Edited on Thu Dec-17-09 02:09 PM by dgibby
Bernie on MSNBC. Talking about Bernanke.

"I don't have a lot of faith in Bernanke" (on changing Wall Street). "Bernanke is Wall Street's guy."

Now talking about his health care amendement. "We could have proceeded in a much better way." Too many committees, too much confusion. Reiterated his belief that single payer (medicare like) is the only fiscally prudent way to go (I'm paraphrasing).

His segment is over now, but I would expect to to run again later.

3. I second that!
Howard/Bernie: wouldn't that be a great ticket? I wouldn't even care who's name was on the top.

4. It was a quick segment.
Wish they'd given him more time. I hate "sound bite" news.

7. It's morally and politically prudent, as well
Morally because health should not be a commodity, and politically because it would keep the Democratic majority in power.
