My recollection is that he was all over the spectrum and back, depending on what day of the week it was.

I’m glad he lost his show but he went overboard in worrying about Bernie’s candidacy.

I hate the way Republicans are always arguing about who's the most conservative. They actually brag about being the most conservative candidate in any election.

The Overton Window is waaaay over to the right!

Stop trying to make yourself relevant on the backs of efforts to GOTV and stem the tide of anti-democracy!

We’ve got David Ploofe and Thom Hartmann telling us that Democracy as we know it is quickly circling the drain.

And I lost sleep over it over the holidays!

And Chris (I feel tingles down my leg) Matthews telling us basically to stop fighting for our future and Democracy.

Go away Chris. Just flippin go away.

I stopped watching Tweety because he was always wrong about everything. I remember when his pal Jonathan Capehart was on with a picture of Bernie on the front page of a newspaper back in his college days fighting for minority housing. Capehart insisted the person in the newspaper wasn't Bernie, that Bernie had nothing to do with minority housing. Turns out Capehart and Tweety were wrong, it was Bernie, but neither one of them apologized to Bernie.

I also remember when they had news reporters on Jeopardy. I believe that Wolf Blitzer was the dumbest, way in the negative, and Tweety was the 2nd dumbest, also in the negative.

let's get correct chris/

When are we gonna put wall street banksters in jail for the 2008 collapse ? if a regular person bets on mult-level marketing or lottery tickets and loses, nobody bails them out.
When are we gonna claw back all the taxes, that have been cut from billionaires, who wallets are so bloated, there was not a billionaire when I was born, I think we can live without them.


Chris,
How bout we elect people who care about all the people.
If people have to work less then ideal jobs and have less then ideal insurance ($1000 deductible is don't die insurance ) cause if you have a family, you are not saving up a $1000 anytime soon.

Hout bout we have some affordable child care ?
How bout we have paid maternity leave ? If men had babies we would have 6 months to a year or more Paid for sure.

Too far left means caring for everyone, never a bad thing. despite what some people think, you can never be too far left
