Corporate whore spin in full glory. MSNBC has interviewed TWO republicans
and put out a statement by Boner. Trying to let them distance themselves from this tragedy.
Not ONE Democrat has been interviewed yet.
Disgraceful.

2. I know - I'm watching
What else can we watch that isn't worse?

OMG I thought we were the majority. How is it possible that our power has flipped so drastically in the past two years?

3. Dems are hunkering down for safety reasons. Repubs have nothing to fear so they can talk all day.

4. It's more than that. The story is in the SPIN CYCLE.
Democrats are NOT cowards--in fact, I seem to remember Cheney retreating to his hidey-hole and Bush looking like an idiot when 911 happened.

14. These people always smile and behave
politely with each other in public. I'm always appalled, but my intransigence is why I would make a terrible member of Congress.

Look at the way Pelosi behaved when turning over that huge gavel to Boehner a couple of days ago. I was disgusted, but that's how things are done.

7. uhh, well Boner is speaker now and the other two were Republicans in AZ
I don't think this coverage is about R vs D and let's not try to make it that.

8. Sorry. You are mistaken. Boner is speaker--for a few days
One was a republican in AZ and the other was a republican in Texas.

18. CORP MEDIA: THIS IS NOT A FUCKING
"ISOLATED INCIDENT",

Do some fucking research, right wing wacko's have been gunning down "the (snarl) liberals" for a while now. This is NOT an "isolated incident"
