I meant to hit this story yesterday. It also exemplifies the problems I’ve posted about in the past when it comes to MSNBC. Markos and Joe Scarborough got into a little Twitter back and forth a couple of months ago: JoeNBC: The Sestak story is as unbelievable a cover story as Nixon throwing little Checkers […]
I was just watching Bill Maher and they were talking about the Joe Sestak deal. The talk was about how the right wants to impeach President Obama over this, despite nothing illegal being done. Patrick Ruffini, a former Bush adviser, defended this by saying “Obama promised not to do this stuff”, to which Jonathon Alter […]
There has been non-stop talk this week about Joe Sestak’s job offer by the Obama administration if he wouldn’t run against Arlen Specter.

Joe Sestak, by questioning his choice in hospitals for their five year old daughter who is recovering from a brain tumor. Read the piece here – it shows you how […]
