Show AllSo much BS, so little time.
The first video.
Which "game" is the best analogy?
8 years working on campaign finance "reform" produced McCain Feingold.
The critic are just trying to "embarrass the president."
Did you realize Iraq and Afghanistan are the only places we have been at war?
At least, they are the only ones mentioned.
The second video.
Scott Walker is the cause of all the problems in Wisconsin.
The former senator would have us NOT connect Wisconsins' troubles to the rest of the states' troubles.
He says that politicians have always worked things out for us because , as Jon Stewart wants us to believe, we are all about "live and let live."
Yeah, let's interview a corrupt lying Establishment politician. How wonderful. More insults to informed readers. And CD has the nerve to ask for money? To support the status quo?
Oh but he has a D after his name and he has a slick line of "progressive" BS, well that's different init?
War Criminals for 2012!
I have to say I agree that this is an establishment guy with another establishment guy. I'm no fan of Stewart, even with so many centrist/liberal blogs pushing him all the time. Let's stay firmly on the left and never allow an Overton window to move us, eff the superpacs.
