Congratulations everyone! We did such a great job getting Glenn Beck’s advertising pulled, advertisers are now pulling their ads from ALL political talkshows.

You knew this was coming. New York’s incompetent unelected Governor David Patterson’s abysmal approval ratings are because of...... His race!

It gets better.

I know, I know; she’s a crackpot and she’s been washed down the Memory Hole here at Daily Kos, but she’s right on this.

The White House is trying to have it both ways: saying out of one side of its month that public option is the essential element of a successful plan while out of the other saying public option is not the essential element of a successful plan.

Law enforcement agent provocateurs are a common sight to anyone that’s participated in any kind of rally or protest. The tactic is simple: have some law enforcement goons try their best to dress and act like they're part of the protest, then have them go too far – hurling stuff, pushing people, smashing windows, yelling threats, and starting trouble. This then gives law enforcement the excuse to disperse and shut down the entire protest, with the added benefit that it gives corporate media stories to run on those bad, bad protesters. It also allows law enforcement to identify those that were willing to go along with the agent provocateurs.

Well, we can’t say we didn’t have fair warning on Barack Obama’s gutless "leadership" style. As a state legislator, Obama cast the shameless cop-out vote of "present" nearly 130 times on issues ranging from juvenile crime to abortion.

Word comes today that Obama and team are ready to throw public option under the bus. Really, can we say we are surprised at this after all his sellouts already?

But this latest and greatest sellout - tossing public option aside - is the real test of the Netroots. If we can't rise up and exert our power to stop this bullshit, Netroots will prove itself as the joke so many already claim it to be.

Sheila Jackson Lee shows us how it’s done. In a town hall in Houston, TX, Lee takes a cellphone call as yet another insurance company shill whines her talking points. Priceless!

That’s the title of an interesting piece in the New York Times published late last year about the barrage of holocaust films that have hit theaters in recent years.

Keith Olbermann’s special comment last night on the healthcare reform debate was certainly full of sound and fury and some excellent points, but his promise to watchdog what’s happening with healthcare reform rings a little hollow when he couldn’t even properly vet corporate lobby hack Richard Wolffe for his own show – letting him guest host his show and having him as a nightly perma-guest.

I’ve got to laugh at these idiots that say Obama’s health reform is socialism, SOCIALISM!, as if that was a negative. Leaving aside the question of whether the plan is or is not socialism, what’s so bad about socialism?

One thing that’s striking about the harassment protests at the town halls these past two weeks is the age of the protesters: a great majority are of that age the speech-impedimented hack Tom Brokaw called "The Greatest Generation" in his tug-job homage to this age group.

Most anti-"Obamacare" protesters are White, over 65, middle class, and Christian. This is exactly the generation that has been selling and trading off the stinking fart that they are somehow more adult, more willing to sacrifice, and have saved this country by their heroic actions in wartime and their chamber-of-commerce obedience in peacetime.

Total bullshit.
