Is she saying this as a host or a guest? As a host, this is blatant editorializing. But what else should one expect from NBC?

Deval thinks we need to be about the “greater good.”

And people are just angry because of the economy.

Says the bill doesn’t address tort reform or illegal immigration and that the “bend the cost curve” is just a flim flam. Newt nods in agreement.

I missed Bloomberg this morning - thanks for sharing...

Laura Ingraham - There are only 4,000 people on the no-fly list. (Did not know it was that few!)

Juan - It’s not fair after the fact to finger-point, second guess. Says we have no “proof” this was connected to Al Queida. Wow, his head is way down in that sand.

Krystol - The dude is not being interrogated, he’s lawyered up....that’s a real problem if you’re trying to keep ahead of the terrorist.

Are there any that haven't?

Meanwhile on MTP Newt Gingrich just made the sound bite of the week.

Referring to terror attacks around the country he said the only thing we can say about them "since we have not formed a message about how to even talk about terrorism" is that:

THEY WERE NOT ROTARIANS

I Fell out of my chair when he said that, classic Newt just too good.

Of course Gregory went right to Annnnddddrrreeeeaaaa Mitchel for the administration take and she made up some pap about how zero's Obama doctrine is not quite finished yet, even more puke inducing pap from the

Newt thinks that we can’t just say “no.” He’s wrong. Right now we will settle for that. Then we’ll take on the work of cleaning out this government.

follow the money,

how many democrats have invested in these companies?

how many democrats have invested in insurance companies?

how much have insurance companies paid to BUY these senators in order to have make a law mandating citizens have to buy their product?

again, this is a follow the money issue.

(of course with so many insurance commercials, no way is the government MSM going to investigate or report this)

I’ll tell you what Andrea Mitchell can do. She can go to another Sarah Palin book signing but this time bring my book I got for Christmas and get it signed for me, instead of trying to waylay Sarah with the stupid Newsweak story.

I’m sure Sarah would appreciate Mitchell doing something useful for a change!

Whatever you do don't miss the panel on MTP it is priceless! Newt at his finest hour once again.

You can just see Andrea and David kinda try and hide under the desk every time Newt speaks since they know he will slice and dice their side into fine sushi in a heartbeat and he scares them to death.

Andrea thinks that anger is just not American.

I wonder if the men with muskets on the bridge at Concord were feeling like reaching out to the British.

My recollection is that they were very, very angry.

White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel recently dismissed critics of the proposed bills by saying that legislation is not made by “people sitting in the shade at the Aspen Institute.” That may be the understatement of the year; these bills overflow with special interest giveaways.

Instead of containing costs, Congress is building support for the bills by institutionalizing the waste. Doctors get deals to lock in existing reimbursement formulas. Labor and consumer groups keep free health care, without any meaningful patient contribution. Trial lawyers veto malpractice reform.

Why do we think Congress will stand up to special interests tomorrow when it refuses to do so today?

I hope you saw the picture of rat faced Andrea “confronting” Sarah with the magazine cover. LOL. It was hilarious.

I’ve said it over and over. Politics is all about power and money, usually both. This is no exception.

From the Muppet old men on cspan, I just heard a new criticism that might become a mantra:

“I can remember when the Senate only needed 51 votes.” (Used to excuse Obama’s lack of progress on his campaign promises.)
Their recommendation: Change the Senate rules; aka, it’s the Republicans’ fault.

When a caller attacked “Wall Street”, their recommendation was - you guessed it - MORE government regulation.

Great catches maica, same goes for state governments. The ones run by hardcore dems like Mich. and Granholm are basket cases with the Governors more than willing to go down with the govt. ship and keep selling out free markets.

As for -c-spam, the left has taken it over as just another MSNBC. I think there is a serious funding problem there., C-spam gets money from other nets and its beginning to show.

I’ll have to catch that later today once it’s posted online.

Newt ‘can’ be good on occasion. He’s just not consistent.

FYI, Chris Mathews weekend show featured a panel that had few kind words for Obama. ... he overplayed, over-stretched, misplayed, "a terrible year for Obama".

Shocking. We heard not one word of that all year, and now THIS coming out of their mouths ! (Chrissy, Norah O'Donnel, Howard Feinman, New Yorker - Heileman ? + one other ?)

I sense a tide is turning. They're expecting some corrections from Obie (and won't find them), just like William Daley's shocking warning to Obie this past week.

HA ! They think '09 was bad for Obie
