Lawrence O'Donnell just apologized to Alan Grayson on his show.

Gives him extra time.

edited for grammar tenses.

:wtf:

:wtf:

:popcorn:

Yes, Nader did a lot of good work 40 years ago.

Even listening to him tonight he is pimping what he did 40-50 years ago. If the Corporate News/Fox Noise would have been around 40-50 years ago, Nader would never had been heard from.

Fuckit.

another night. I guess good for him for his apology.

they disagree with some here. Geez

their thoughts and opinions. :shrug:

I'm not disappointed I'm infuriated! :mad:

I think LO is an honorable guy.... he has a hard time not thinking himself to have superior knowledge and instincts, given his experience with the Senate on tax issues, but he is still learning to be the host. I'll give him that time.

this is a lesson in bipartisanship, how we have to hug this shit to our bosoms. I can't take him anymore.

(talking about making your head hurt).... This Howard Fineman article (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/12/09/the-clinton-crew-takes-ov_n_794430.html ) discusses how Obama had brought in all the Clinton folks after the mid-term elections to deal with this issue, including: Lawrence Summers, Gene Sperling, Ron Klain, Jack Lew and John Podesta. Austan Goolsbee, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors, is an early Obama advisor, but he's philosophically in tune with the economic views of the Clinton types. He goes on to say: "The significance of this staff shift is beyond the operational. The Clinton-era alums, by outlook and experience, represent a centrist, pragmatic, pro-business "wealth-creation" wing of the Democratic Party that flourished during the Clinton presidency in the 1990s."

Now, given that LO was chief of staff to Moynihan's Senate Finance Committee in 93 and thus honchoed in the Clinton tax bill, is it possible there might be a bit of collusion going on?

'Hate to admit I'm thinking along these lines, but I am....

apologize. But Keith or Rachel or even Ed - he is not. (Cenk Uygur for MSNBC 10pm slot - then we'd really see how well people can handle the truth!) :evilgrin:

...retroactively.

Tonight, Grayson says December 31 is an arbitrary date. The President can direct the IRS to extend the current tax rates then we can rewrite them retroactively.

Unchallenged.

Quite different from O'D's diatribe on Tuesday.


Nader rocks :toast:

i thought he was rude and inappropriate as hell. definitely owes her an apology, as well.

I'm a huge Michael Lerner fan, too!

He was so hateful last night that I can't bare to look at him any more.

tune into a Presidential press conference. No commercials.

just to annoying, and bad.

in the first place but that's what happens when your own "concerns" are so damned important and you don't give a shit about anyone else. :mad:

edit: removed one word

And on and on and on.... And he barely talks to Jane Hamsher in comparison, acts somewhat civil to Alan Grayson, and cuts off Michael Lerner. What's that all about?

I wish Cenk would have gotten that time slot. I really do.

This pompous know-it-all should never have been given a slot on MSNBC, especially with Thom Hartman and Ceynk on the bench.
