This is good. The conservative base wanted an Oscar Madison and they are being served a Felix Ungar.

I swear to God, for comedic posterity's sake, we need one of those classic family photos--standing together in two rows smiling--of Romney, Cain, Perry, Bachmann, Gingrich, Paul, Santorum, Trump, Palin, McCain, Joe the plumber, Boehner, Steele, Huckabee, Coulter, Hannity, and Limbaugh.

This ain't politics, it's Clowns "R" Us.

It's godam hysterical.

Bravo to the cast.

Enjoy this, savor the laughter. We shan't see the likes of this again.

There's no way the GOP can top this. This is the encore. That's a mouthful I know, but this is so far out there that if any drift does occur in the future it would have to be back toward the rational if only an inch or two. There are no more inches possible the other way. They have hit the humanly possible limit.

Rachel
since the Republican continue to claim all others not Christian therefore one
would have to ask are they antichrist since they use the Faith-Family-Freedom
as their motto. If you take this words it means 666.

The Komen Foundation should be screened for cancer, an especially virulent strain of cancervative Republican cancer.

But you see, Komen's attack on Planned Parenthood just follows on the heels of the cancervative Republican attack on ACORN, an organization that often referred low-income women to Planned Parenthood.

Besides James O'keefe's doctored attack videos against ACORN, didn't he also try the same stunt at some Planned Parenthood facilities, misrepresenting himself and the woman with him, lying essentially in an attempt to create video footage which he could then doctor like he did the ACORN ones?

omg.....i am watching my country go down the toilet....we need more people with more brains and heart.....people who care about American citizens FIRST....people like rachel............we need these people to have the ear of our president....bill moyers has an informative show with smart people who understand the problems and can correct them.....we need a round table of the smartest people we have.....why follow the greedy and dumb anymore? the bigger question is, why do we let them lead? the citizens need lobbists so we can buy our governing officials votes just like corporations do......we r on uneven footing....it's all about the $$$$$ America is it's people....HELP

Another context:

Many hardcore cancervative evangelical Republicans are against abortion in all cases, including if the life of a pregnant woman is endangered (also in cases of rape or incest).

So, these type of anti-abortion cancervative evangelicals are radical to the point that they are willing to see a woman die (along with the fetus), which actually mirrors the right-wing mind-set Komen just displayed, in which Komen executives are willing to see a whole lot of women die who currently employ Planned Parenthood for cancer screenings, those who can't afford to go elsewhere and pay more, all in an attempt to somehow shutdown the 3 percent of Planned Parenthood involving non-taxpayer-funded abortions.

IOW, how many American women have to die so that anti-abortion cancervative Republicans can get their way, banning abortion, shutting abortions down, as they proclaim, to save the fetus, no matter the number of women, pregnant or otherwise, who must die because of their rigid evangelical anti-abortion stance?

Rachel, I totally love you for fighting for the troops getting a parade. That is so deserved. I feel horrible that these brave men and women sacrificed so much for something that I think was a BIG mistake. I want all of them to know that I love them and their bravery despite my sadness about the war. This so much more important than a STUPID football game! Keep fighting, Rachel!

Based on the right wing's recent (and not so recent) anti-women positions and actions, it is becoming almost inescapable that the lunatic fringe of the Republican Party has become the American branch of the Taliban, and the rest of the party is too afraid to oppose them.

Rachel, I think that you unfair to George Romney tonight. In the 1960s many people initially supported the war in Vietnam, motivated by the prevailing view that the Free World was in a struggle against a wordwide Cummunist conspiracy, but took a closer and more skeptical look at the war as the horrifying body counts kept increasing. George Romney was not the only one. Many others in both parties did as well, including George McGovern who had voted in favor of the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution. George Romney's turn against the war was not the kind of craven political calculation that his son has come to master.

I'm surprised that no one is mentioning that Susan Komen recently hired as their VP of public policy the former conservative candidate for GA governor. I got this from an alert from the People for the American Way.

"The right-wing pressure leading to Komen’s decision also came from within the organization. Last year, Komen hired as its new vice president of public policy Karen Handel, an anti-choice former secretary of state and Republican candidate for governor in Georgia. During her failed primary bid, Handel vowed to cut off any state-allocated funds to Planned Parenthood and was one of Sarah Palin’s infamous “Mama Grizzly” endorsed candidates. Indeed, the bio on Handel’sTwitter account reads “Lifelong Conservative Republican formerly Georgia’s first Republican Secretary of State,” giving an indication of her priorities. "

As far as George's blunder, maybe back in 1965 "brainwashing" wasn't as understood as it is today, although it's now commonly known as psychological warfare. He should have used the word "seduced" by an overwhelming and dominant perspective over in the war zone. And it's not like someone can know "everything" all of the time; certainly "common knowledge" has been proven wrong...a lot...throughout history. Why shouldn't people admit openmindedness? Oh that's right, because of medias who seek to humiliate them and offer them up to the ignorant pitchforkers, for their own political persuasion.

In regards the insistance on waiting until Afghanistan is ended before doing thankyou parades for the returning Vets, where is it written that if you do two extraordinarily kind, brave, 'we will do this for America in your stead' things that you can't have a thank you for each?

In the middle of all this "If it weren't for Planned Parenthood all these women wouldn't be able to have their cancer screenings" talk, I wish that someone would point out that if it weren't for our profit-driven medical insurance system (i.e. if we had a system like Canada's) this wouldn't be an issue. We could all get needed care and wouldn't have to spend all this time, energy and gazillions of dollars fund-raising.
