[Rosco T.]

I likee :)

[aquart]

1. If it isn't in a ditch with cleats, I don't care.

Nothing hurts that POS.

[elleng]

2. LOVE IT!!!

[trueblue2007]

3. Isn't former Senator Simpson something. He is tearing the GOP a new rear end

Lawrence and Simpson are ripping that idiot Grover to pieces. I love it


AND... NOW IT'S TIME TO TURN ON KEITH OLBERMANN

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. That was interesting.

You know this country has gone to hell in a handbasket when Alan Simpson starts sounding liberal.

[Rosco T.]

5. Not necssarly "liberal"...

but "rational".

[trueblue2007]

6. MY GOSH...... from 1 being GOPig to 10 Flaming liberal

Sen Simpson was a solid 9

and every statement was totally right on. He spoke solid truth. Grover is slimey. Simpson kept asking.... WHERE IS GROVER GETTING HIS MONEY? HOW MUCH MONEY IS GROVER GETTING? HOW BIG IS THE STAFF?? WHO IS THE POWER BEHIND GROVER!!

[Blue Meany]

8. His funding his an issue on the right, because he has gotten money

from Muslim organizations, one or more of which are alleged to have terrorist ties.

[Aerows]

12. LOL

You said it, TVO. How the hell did we get here?

[Whisp]

14. I thought Alan Simpson ate teachers for breakfast?

or is this the one that force feeds catfood into old people?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

15. Exactly the same. So that's my point. When this guy

starts sounding relatively sane and moderate compared to the GOPers in Congress, you know things are fucked up.

[Whisp]

18. well somebody's fucking things up, that for sure.

this simpson guys sounds smarter and more direct than anyone in the media

[Firebrand Gary]

7. I never thought that I would say this, but how can we help Senator Simpson?

How do we find out who is behind Mr Norquist? Who's paying his bills, what industries is he shielding? Who's on his payroll? What's the history behind his organization?

[MadMaddie]

13. What is the saying "Follow the Money"

We need some energetic real journalist to find out....in my opinion, "All Roads lead to the Koch Brothers"!

[WorseBeforeBetter]

21. Some of those questions can be answered in this book, written in 2004.

Follow the money, and the prominent Republicans who created the little shit.

[Davis_X_Machina]

9. He's afraid Norquist is going to ruin the brand. n/t

[trueblue2007]

11. No.... I think Sen Simpson is going to RUIN THE USA

HE SHOWED HIS UTTER CONTEMPT AND DISLIKE FOR GROVER. He was not acting.

[spanone]

10. any politician who believes in civility and intelligence has to be horrified by the teaparty

regardless of his party

[Whisp]

16. let me know when a vid is up, if it does get up. I want to see this guy.

http://www.mediaite.com/tv/alan-simpson-calls-for-investigation-into-grover-norquist-where-does-he-get-his-money/

found it

[Whisp]

17. holy shit, this is a Republican!

I haven't seen one of those for what seems like years.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

20. Yes, the old-fashioned, nearly extinct kind.

The ones you might not necessarily agree with, but that you can have a reasoned debate with because they aren't criminally insane.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

19. Maybe I'm not well liked because I'm getting my ass kicked on the thread that I started.

Oh, well. You can't win them all!!

I agree that Simpson was on point tonight.

Arianna, on the other hand, made absolutely no sense!

[Dawson Leery]

22. Unrec (Simpson is still a weasel). I agree that we must

know why Norquist has so much influence within the GOP.

[Whisp]

23. I guess the bar for weasels has gone up so high with the Cantors and the others

Simpson really does look normal and reasonable.

but for sure, I wouldn't really trust him either. But I don't mind listening to him, which is Very Unusual
