The Repub on the Ed Show....

This guy is going crazy. Ed asked him what do you say to the two women that came on the show and lost relatives when if this bill as is was passed years ago---they would have lived. The guy just started stuttering and shouting weak repub talking points like..."We got something better" "We care about you too." I was like...what the fuck. The black, who I think is a REpub too..he just came out and said he was diagnosed with prostate and when he heard the cost to cure him of the prostate he was like...if he didn't have insurance he'd go bankrupt. So he caved too...and basically said Dems have to push this.

Interesting show.

1. He wasn't as confident

and forceful like he usually is. They know that they're losing this fight and that it will come back to bite them big in November.

3. that's why the Repugs are fighting it hard and with lies lies lies ...

because they know that, if a plan goes into place, and it starts helping non-billionaires, the Repugs are toast, possibly footnotes.

2. No, the African American was joe Madison--a radio talk host

on satellite radio.... He is a progressive... He didn't cave... He was in agreement that Dems have to push this.

Thanks for the clarification.

4. Actually that guy (the Republican strategist) is one of the more reasonable

ones who appears on these shows. I think he just COULDN'T say anything to that question -- he knows the truth.

And the other guy -- who's just been diagnosed with prostate cancer :( is a progressive radio host.
