What people don’t realize is how narrow-minded men in religious church’s are really so responsible for the harassment and murder of these doctors. Plus a much bigger atrocity of people to be hatred based, instead of love, understanding, and compassion. For too long, certain so-called religious leaders have pushed down the throats hypocritical made up religious views that totally conflicted with what Jesus looked to teach. In addition, made it look like women were to be treated as slaves and servants to men, which is a total falsehood. So many women flocked around Jesus, because Jesus offered women equality, freedom and a woman’s right to make her own choices. Probably, why these hypocritical narrow-minded men refuse to this day that there were women who were Apostles of Jesus, regardless of what type of sin these women might have committed. But really as all people who learn the real truth come to realize that these narrow-minded men are nothing more than religious extremists of hatred and have caused more damage to women, men and children than ever realized.
Fast and Furious, huh? That WAS instituted by Bush/Cheney, right? Hey, what happened with all those Mexican Special Drug Agents who were armed and financed by George W. and then started working for the Drug Trafficers? What about those two Federal Air Marshalls who were caught smuggling cocaine? Did Issa or anyone in the Republican Corporate Ho Party investigate ANYTHING during Bush/Cheney?
Funny but I didn’t see any Issa hearings after 175,000 weapons turned up missing in Iraq during the Bush/Cheney disaster. By the way, wasn’t Darrell Issa a car thief? What a bunch of shameless hypocrites. It seems the real crooks are politicHo’s making laws to protect themselves from being prosecuted for the 100’s of crimes elected officials have committed since 2000.
When I heard real life “Goodfella” Henry Hill died, the first thing I thought of was how much Republicans reminded me of the crooks, RIP paisan, ya ****’n rat (sorry, lol)
They say Mitt Romney learned how to be a Vulture Capitalist watching the scene in “Goodfellas” where the hoods takeover the chump’s restaurant. Voting for Romney is a vote for fascism. “…more appropriately called Corporatism…” or will he make the trains run on time? (lol)
Italian-Americans got a saying about Rudy Giuliani, “Rudy got rid of the Mafia in NYC and then the US Government took over organized crime”. (LOL) I know, I KNOW, it’s just another coincidence a new smokable form of heroin showed up in inner city America not long after Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld invaded Afghanistan. The same thing happened during Reagan/Bush with crack cocaine, Tosh Plumlee & Iran/Contra… strange, right? Rumors since tell how the GOP learned to launder drug profits through their campaign contributions. Evil, right?
HEY, I heard George W. Bush’s favorite movie is “Goodfellas”, lol. I wonder who killed more people and stole more money, the Mafia since 1932 or the Bush Crime Family since 1988. I know, I KNOW, it’s just another coincidence every time a Bush is in the White House Americans have to suffer through a banking,/financial crisis/scandal, suckers. WASP, white collar, Bank robbers with police and Secret Service protection, now THAT is Un-American. Maybe economic terrorists?
Talking about an evil mob, the Republican Corporate Ho Party turned us all into the United Suckers of America. The Wise Guys would’a loved the suckers of the Right-wing because the hypocrites are thick as thieves. Open your eyes and look at the Bush/Cheney catastrophe… The rich guys spit in American faces, pulled down Americans pants, f***ed Americans in the @$$ for 8 years and stole your wallet before they left in 2008.
All the adults of my youth were Italian immigrants, so I’ve heard the stories about living under Mussolini during WWII. They suffered, they endured and they DAMN WELL KNOW A FASCIST POLICE STATE WHEN THEY SEE IT! So forgive my inbred hatred of anything resembling totalitarian tyranny.
Speaking of tyranny has anyone read the new Free Trade Agreement?

I have done in my years in school many a study on political environments coming to the conclusion early on that being a Democrat is the only way to be, at least for me, and I was raised in the south. Also any kind of positive wording, energy, protesting, etc. for the Republicans is a damning situation for the Democratic side of the party.
Rachel Maddow says, in one of the sound bites that are on msnbc, "your vote cannot be bought", but is that not what the Republicans or the GOP doing by piling a boat, scratch that and say, TANKER load of money in support of the Mitt PARASITE Romney campaign. I mean, I know in someway how all of the pac money and donations gets doled out, however you cannot tell me that some of those dollars are going into some voter's pockets just to secure the fact that they will vote for the Republican ticket no matter what, and I am also quite sure that any voter that has the slightest insecurity of who to vote for will be persuaded to lean farther to the right, which will benefit the voter finacially and the Republicans with one more vote, and once they, the Republicans, have secured that vote and with the smoke and fanfair in congress happening the GOP ticket will be the one that will be in the White House in January.
Now please do not get me wrong Rachael, I love every word that you speak, I just think that my or anyone's vote not being bought is in a sense wrong, is that not what they did in Mich. or Minn. with that (R) Gov. Wayne. The GOP party got out and bought all of the undecided votes. My vote is I am secure with as I know who I will vote for------the only Political Party the Democratic Party that is the only one until we are a muli-party system instead of a two party system. BRING THEM ON!
We need to run an ad " count down to the vote for the student loan increase...daily" We need to run this ad in every state....after the time runs out on that issue we need to run countdown ads on the other bills... due to expire any day!!!!!! Let's put this issue front and center....lets hold the Right-wing accountable...
I definately must agree with you. I have a small but for me substantial school student loan and find it very difficult to be able to make ends meet as I am also on disability and can bearly make it through. And then there are the other programs that the republicans are wanting to kill as far as social services for the present as well as for the future of all U. S. Citizens. To Hell with the top of the 1% ruling class. They should look back in history and realize that a revolution is in the making and the 1% will become the losers of that revolution. That revolution may not be RED but I would be willing to bet that it will be nothing short of RED, WHITE AND BLUE!
Congress is in contempt with us the voters and constituents that put them there, one can only hope that they will enjoy being cellmates!
I hope someone could tell me why these crazy conspiracy theorists can do this? People are entitled to their opinions, but how can they legally just make something up like this and not provide proof? They can just accuse your president and his attorney general of these things without legal consequences?
I mean are they not accusing the president of something like treason? Jeez. I am blown away. I just cannot believe this. Please talk about this aspect.
I think of this every time I read media matter or msnbc.
What we need is a gullibility index so we can measure the success of Fox programing (mind control?). The Maddow staff seems to be quite qualified with creating charts and graphs. Do you think you folks can come up with an index to measure American gullibility?
I am an uncle, 65, male, white, Democratic/Progessive and DO NOT watch Fox News. Please don't stigmatize our fellow Americans with "Uncles Watch Fox News"! I am a loyal watcher of MSNBC. And I receive information from numerous sources, including books.
Ron Paul, I think, is trying to pave the way in 2016 for his son Rand Paul. In that context parties definitely do matter.
We need to accept that Issa and the other congressional representatives that are
outside of the house claiming knowledge of a gun control conspiracy connected
to the fast & furious issue.
The senate must hold a hearing and find the underlying cause of this conspiracy.
These congressional representatives must have been leaked such information or
have found a document with such plan because surely they are not just making
this up.
Call me naive but wouldn't that be like yelling fire in a theater, it would be purposefully
causing unnecessarily stress and chaos to the public and who knows what danger
that may lead to.
So senate please hold a hearing and be sure to have the congressional
representatives testify as to how this information was obtained because someone has went over the line.
On Dec 1, 2009 Intelligence Squared US held a debate titled "America is to blame for Mexico's Drug Wars". It is very informative from an historical point to a current point. By the way - one of the "Against the Motion" is Chris Cox of the NRA. All he can talk about is NRA's opposition of more gun control. The audience even laughs when he stays on this one track. He is basically all the Republicans rolled up in one and doesn't seem to listen to what the For Side is saying. Fareed Zakaria is on the side of For the motion. You can watch it on their website. The debate was won by Mr. Zakaria's side 72% to 22%
Rachel--I love your Energy!! Thanks to you and your colleagues Ed Schultz, Chris Matthews, Al Sharpton, and Martin Bashir, plus all of your guest contributors like Johnathan Capehart, and Chris Hayes (sorry for any spelling errors), I and many people like myself, are well informed and have our "eyes wide open" and what we see is truly frightening! Please keep telling the American people of the "dishonesty" of the far right. It's nice to see that integrity and truth in reporting the issues. By the way, how are people like Rush L. and Shaun H. allowed to keep their FCC licenses when all the stories that they "report" on, are based on deceit, misdirection and (not so) creative editing? Keep up the GREAT work you guys!
Why is Rachel havin a Neo Con on her show hawking her book?
These blue dog liberals make me sick! Just go to FOX NEWS RACHEL..
Fox is not news, it's professional wrestling
The barbarians are at the gate! MSNBC just gave a show to one of Beck's girls......
Responding to your ad on MSNBC stating how BIllionares are now able to buy elections, I take offense with your implications that Soros is influencing the DNC message. Sure he has invested heavily and we thank him for his contribution. However the DNC remains pure in standing for people who believe in ensuring the economic well being of all Americans. Soros has not changed the core DNC message even though the far too many have cast that shadow. Plus, what motivation would he have for redistribution of wealth. He is after all wealthy.
Hint to Scott Brown; Don't verbally attack someone who has a prime time media show on which they can hit back over and over and over for years...
