For the love of christ, use that poor basterds death to pass public option

Chicken Hawk draft dodger Ted Nugent whines about something

Nugent bitches, but fails to act. Like aWol. And Darth Cheney. Fuck you Nugent. Pathetic coward.

And we pay over 50% more per person for health care than Japan or France

“I am a proud right wing terrorist,”

“Amen, God bless you,”

Because after all. Isn't God a Right Wing Domestic Terrorist?

Have no fear, the Times will get to it 15 paragraphs later:

Republican senators are holding up nominees like John McHugh for Army secretary to influence what happens to the detainees at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba.

The United States ranks 29th in the world in infant mortality.

Fuck you Latvia.

The most religious societies are the most unequal

Inequality leads to religion.

The Federal Government Claims That Goldman Has Stock Manipulation Software

The federal government effectively claims that Goldman Sachs has software that can be used to manipulate stock prices. If the software can be used for illegal purposes, why is it more serious that a relatively low level employee has access to it than Goldman Sachs' top executives?

“We weren’t privy to the intelligence” is the new “no one could have predicted”.

This shit never changes. Governments like to bamboozle people. One way they can do this is by claiming there is top secret intelligence proving whatever it is that they people to believe. In Ambinder’s world, even if this top secret intelligence turns out not to mean what the government said it meant, we were still wrong to question it.

Inglourious Basterds: Jew is the new Nazi

Tarantino's next film involves a fiesty group of Palestinians who take the scalps of the members of Likud.

David Brooks as usual, is wrong on just about almost everything that comes out of his mouth in this segment.

Health care reform is popular.

I cannot enjoy health coverage and turn to my neighbor and tell him he doesn't deserve it.

It is a moral imperative.

Marc Ambinder continues to cover for Chimpy

Journalists, including myself, were very skeptical when anti-Bush liberals insisted that what Ridge now says is true, was true. We were wrong.  Our skepticism about the activists' conclusions was warranted because these folks based their assumption on gut hatred for President Bush, and not on any evaluation of the raw intelligence. [Addition: That's a hasty generalization. Many of the loudest voices were reflexively anti-Bush, but I can't accurately describe the motivations of everyone, much less a majority, of those who were skeptical. There were plenty of non-liberals who believed that the terror threats were exaggerated.]  But journalists should have been even more skeptical about the administration's pronouncements. And yet -- we, too, weren't privy to the intelligence. Information asymmetry is always going to exist, and, living as we do in a Democratic system, most journalists are going to give the government the benefit of some doubt, even having learned lessons about giving the government that benefit.Journalists, including myself, were very skeptical when anti-Bush liberals insisted that what Ridge now says is true, was true.

Bullshit Marc Ambinder. Chimpy was a life long fuck up. Everything he touched turned to shit. Any sentient being saw that. Only self serving villager like you would continue to cover for that felonious crook. Fuck you Marc Ambinder for blaming those who were right all along. (hint! That's not you.)

No, Jay Leno. Ask a cop what a single woman should buy to stay safe,

they will say buy a dog, not a gun. A young single woman is more likely not to train with the gun and is more likely to have the gun used on her.

By the way, you have over done the whole 'crap car' thing, haven't you? Really?

Dear Chuck Todd. You want to know why "Old" journalist did it better?

There was not profit motive then. Walter Cronkite wasn't there to make a buck. When he did make a buck it was nice, but it wasn't the sole, (soul?) motive.

(Gasp! You mean, in a capitalist society you don't suck every dollar out of a market? Like health care has? Or Goldman Sachs is doing to the financial markets?!?!) Yea. That's right.

Look, you think Bill O'Luffa is on the faux spews because he's a journalist? Glenn Beck? Please don't call those perception managers 'journalists'. They are whores. Well paid, fucked up human beings.

Chuck Todd, you disingenuous fuck....
