What a Liberal/Progressive Smackdown Looks Like

After Mike Murphy got his ass kicked (David Brooks was smart enough to STFU once they got rolling) by Rachel Maddow and E.J. Dionne this morning and Meet The Press, I will bet you David Gregory doesn't get many more "conservatives" to show up if they have to be on with those two.

If only we could have them on every Sunday....

ENOUGH!

That's it dammit! It is high time that President Obama started kicking some ConservaDem ass. These are the same assholes who a few weeks ago were bitching and moaning about liberal and progressive groups running ads against them. Well FUCK THAT! Its time for those liberal and progressive groups to get some help from the Oval office. Its time to make those Democrats' names mud in their states. I don't give a damn where they hail from. Give me a simple majority of all REAL Democrats over a supermajority full of DINOs any damn day! I am so tired of these sorry muthafuckas working against Democratic priorities and principles and then enjoying the backing of the Democratic establishment when its time to for reelection. Cut off the muthafucking money. Let them sink or swim with the Republican constituents and special interests they seem to court so fervently. Obviously it doesn't help that we have a pus...hover as a frikking Majority Leader. But dammit its not just Republicans who need to pay a price now for stepping out of line. With the shit they are trying to pull on health care reform this needs to be the death throes of the ConservaDems! Primary all of their asses and get them the hell out of Congress ASAP!

I apologize for all the exclamation points but I am pissed off right now.

Like A Hot Knife Through Butter

Lawrence O'Donnell guest hosted "The Ed Show" tonight and this guy was choke slamming right wing idjuts left and right. In the first clip he peeled the skin off of both Frank Gaffney's and David Rivkin's hide on the issue of torture. They will be licking those wounds for some time.

And then he took aim at Scott Wheeler over his planned opposition to Judge Sonia Sotomayor should she be President Obama's Supreme Court nominee and blew his ass right out of the water. They may just have to find a place for Larry in the line-up over there at MSNBC.

Krugman Off The Top Turnbuckle

Paul Krugman had two great contributions to American society today. First he wrote this column in the New York Times breaking out his own whupping stick about the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. For example:

A not-so-funny thing happened on the way to economic recovery. Over the last two weeks, what should have been a deadly serious debate about how to save an economy in desperate straits turned, instead, into hackneyed political theater, with Republicans spouting all the old clichés about wasteful government spending and the wonders of tax cuts.

It’s as if the dismal economic failure of the last eight years never happened — yet Democrats have, incredibly, been on the defensive. Even if a major stimulus bill does pass the Senate, there’s a real risk that important parts of the original plan, especially aid to state and local governments, will have been emasculated.

Somehow, Washington has lost any sense of what’s at stake — of the reality that we may well be falling into an economic abyss, and that if we do, it will be very hard to get out again.

Would the Obama economic plan, if enacted, ensure that America won’t have its own lost decade? Not necessarily: a number of economists, myself included, think the plan falls short and should be substantially bigger. But the Obama plan would certainly improve our odds. And that’s why the efforts of Republicans to make the plan smaller and less effective — to turn it into little more than another round of Bush-style tax cuts — are so destructive.

snip

It’s time for Mr. Obama to go on the offensive. Above all, he must not shy away from pointing out that those who stand in the way of his plan, in the name of a discredited economic philosophy, are putting the nation’s future at risk. The American economy is on the edge of catastrophe, and much of the Republican Party is trying to push it over that edge.

I am just hoping that President Obama is still reading the Grey Lady.



And second he kicked Joe Scarborough's teeth in with the facts on Morning Joe. Damn I wish I could wake up to this kind of entertainment EVERY morninig!
