Had an appointment this AM so was watching MSNBC while I dressed. Who IS this Dylan Ratigan

and how can we get the Democratic politicians to take lessons on how to shut down the pukes?

Saw him "savage" the creep from the Chamber of Horrors (Commerce) and just loved it. First time I have seen any of this show and it was a good way to start the morning.

1. Bloomberg finance reporter, hired away by CNBC where he was for 15 years

From what I understand, he was so fed up with the Wall Street/DC comingling he jumped at the chance to move over to MSNBC where he could say what CNBC wouldnt allow him to.

2. Just Commented On Him Earlier This AM!! He's Sort Of New... But I LIKE

the way he talks. He called Big Insurers & Corporation Communists last week. I think he resigned his job with NBC or CBS not too long ago and got this job at MSNBC!

I think he's GREAT and is going after the Health Care Reform issue like gang busters! I think I'll Google him, didn't think of that until now!

Keep watching, he asks some hard hitting questions almost everyday! I even stopped watching the last hour of C-Span most of the time just to switch over to see what he's talking about! 10:00 A.M used to be my last TV hour for the daytime, but now it's 11:00 A.M. because of him.

Going to Google now!

5. He's Become One Of My Favorites These Days & I Did Check Google!

He was a financial guru of sorts, but says he's excited that MSNBC gave him a two-hour show without restriction on what he can cover! He's also single and 36 if that matters to anyone. Not me, but he's a VERY interesting, in your face, I want answers type of person.

Just this morning the head of the Chamber of Commerce was on and he started asking him a bunch of questions. I thought the guy was going to unhook his mic and walk off! Dylan didn't bat an eye lash and basically said we're done! Seems the Chamber of Commerce is the LARGEST lobbyist group in D.C. and Dylan called him on it!!

LOVED IT!!

4. I missed his show this AM, but I've seen him verbaly castrat

Pubs on his show in the past. He doesn't take any BS & he doesn't pull any punches either!
