Joe Scar and Charles Blow go at it about cutting Medicare,Medicaid and SS..

[butterfly77]

And everyone else on the panel seems to think Scar is right,except for Mika. Barnicle,Willie and Joe seem to think that we all should run our budgets like the government...

1. I don't care to watch Dead Intern Joe.

2. What do you expect from someone who really hasn't worked since he started working as a DJ?

I mean admit it talking into a mic for a few hours a day is not "hard" work yet he gets 10 time the wages then the guy who works in a factory. Also why should he worry about any of these programs, he will never have to depend on them. You actually think he will be sitting at home when he retires waiting for his SS check then trying to figure out which drug he must have to stay alive and which one he can give up so he can have heat that month.

3. "You actually think he will be sitting at home when he retires waiting for his SS check"

Did I say I thought or heard that he did?What I particularly enjoyed about the clip was the part beginning somewhere in the middle where Charles Blow began challenging Scar on these issues, which hardly ever happens and the exchange went on for a long time which usually never happens,it ended with Mika telling Joe that the only ones making all the decisions on destroying the country were white men.

5. Ever hear of rhetorical questions? You know questions that don't need answers

4. Joe accidentally told the truth at 11:30 in the video he said

"We are stealing money from SS" "I mean we are spending more money on SS then we are taking in"

6. Willie is a real disappointment unless I have misunderstood

his Dad's politics all these years. I am pretty sure the elder Geist is extremely liberal. F_k Willie and his blatant opportunism. He's only a miniscule degree better than the talentless progeny of the late Tim Russert. :eyes:

7. Willie is starting to remind me of Tucker...n/t
