1. It is great television isn't it!

Fact checking him live with real numbers...throwing up slides with real data....great job Ali Velshi!

3. The only metric that is reliable to Coburn is his own opinion.

[SticksnStones]

4. Right! Came across as only believing the sound of his own voice!

6. It was great when Ali said to take the poll graphic down because Coburn said he distrusts polls

8. Coburn had a point about better outcomes, but what good are they if you can't afford them.

We have the best doctors and hospitals in the world. Let's build on it.

11. He was defunct Al Jazeera America's economy guy.

And a nice and interesting watch. I now wonder, as some of their executives probably do as well, whether it was a good idea for AJ to close down shop here. Sounds like one given the assholization of society that was beginning to unfold at that time, but it will also miss the upcoming, unavoidable, rebound and a shot at establishing itself as a major, reasonable source of information and journalism for the long run.
