Can I pay money and watch TRMS without the stupid ads?

Ezra needs his own nightly show. He has a way of making the machinations of congressional budget fights clearer, the consequences more frightening, not from the actual consequences, but from the stupidity of those willing to damage America for their own gain. With so much to lose, we helplessly watch as common sense is ignored.

Here's my prediction. The true teabaggers really believe it will be time to get into the fallout shelters if they give up. If the true believers vote 'present' for Speaker, Nancy Pelosi could be a Speaker without a majority and take the fall for the end of human civilization Wanglom (White Anglo Male) Edition.

They are nuts enough to do it and they are really only happy as a responsibility free fund raising opposition. The only reason this happened is that the press let predatory grifters, like Karl Rove, scare them into treating fund raising scams as the equivalent of our founding fathers.
