Absolutely fucking amazing. Scarborough dishonored the memory of the slain officers just to protect his BFF Huckabee. MSNBC should hang their head very low in shame today and Morning Joe should be cancelled. UPDATE: Within 8 minutes of his show starting, Dylan Ratigan started covering the shootings.

She raises some very good points: Don’t veto the people’s choice. “I think there is a concern when the public speaks and there is a counter-decision made to that,” she said, adding quickly, “I don’t think that will happen.” She said the governors, lawmakers, DNC members and others picked as super delegates are chosen through […]
Wolf Blitzer just got done with a White House briefing. They are saying that Army and Marines will have their tours extended 3-6 months. Also additional National Guard will be called up as well as reserves. The financial side of this is “well into the billions”. This will throw a renewed voice into the debate […]
