Rush, Hannity and Beck - the Three Stooges of the Right Wing (with apologies to the real Three Stooges)

@!$%# Middleborough Massachusetts! So, if you're sore because your overall value and your home's value has plummeted you can't say Holy Sheep @!$%# when President Rmoney dissolves your only shot at health insurance and your Social Security? Again, @!$%# you Middleburg.. (Here's your $60.00?)

Good morning, Trish, and the TRMS team. Yes, missing Rachel, although I believe we all <3'd Ezra Klein's guest hosting last night. Ezra's appearances are ( to me, anyway) always a 'nerdgasm.' No doubt there was some serious TRMS team ribbing about Ezra's deelish seque from Kardashian to elderly, disenchanted tortoises?

Worth reading and sharing: via ProPublica's Twitter hashtag, #muckreads, just making sure that the TRMS team is aware of fellow MSNBC contributor, Robert McClure, and his report posted yesterday about how the nation's federally-funded parks are being nibbled and/or gobbled up by big and small business interest. The report leads with the Benton Harbor, MI Lake Michigan park that has now been "stolen" and transformed into a golf course. Here's the link:

I also forwarded it on to NPCA.org, a volunteer group that plans and coordinates works projects at national parks, like tree-planting and stream restoration.

Lastly, sharing a grin with you: ever see a trout on a bicycle? If you were in Livingston Manor, NY on Saturday, you would have! This, via the Times Herald Record and troutparade.com :

I must have found religion in my old age because every morning I wake up and thank God on my knees that I am not American. I also thank Her for our other trading partners like China and India. Face it America, your glory days are over. The world is moving ahead and you are wallowing in your own ignorance and arrogance. LOSERS!

Okay, a $20 fine for swearing? For those who always scream about their 2nd amendment rights being in jeopardy, did they forget there is one about freedom of speech. Might want to read that Constitution again f— _kers. Check is in the mail.

"American families' median net worth plummets along with their home values."

Of course, most of the American public has known this since 2007. Where have the politicians been for the last 5 years?

Oh yeah - rising BILLIONS in corporate bribes, donations so they can stay in power.

Comparing Glenn Beck to Dick Clark is a serious insult to the guy who mainstreamed rock 'n' roll at a time when the Glenn Becks of the country were calling it a communist plot.

Comparing Glenn Beck to a human being is an insult to the species. He proves what Paddy Chayevsky meant when he was asked if he was "forecasting the future" with Network. "No," he replied, "I was writing about today."
