Republicans acting like oh this is so terrible about Sandy Hook and how could this have ever happened. Well Republicans it is your total fault with your lack of wanting to have any proper regulations and incorporating corrupt Capitalism. What did you expect for your total stupidity and the total responsibility for what you Republicans have done. Now don’t play the game of well let’s not point fingers now, because that just doesn’t fly anymore. It is time to take total responsibility for what you Republicans have done in America and throughout the world with your kill kill attitude and allowing some rich bastards become so corrupt. You Republican excuses and your efforts to use the news media to cover-up your deceit and lies just will not cut it anymore. It is time to take responsibility for your actions over so many years and how really you all are total morons. And using the excuse that this the result of the Tea Party, when this has been going on for way longer than when some Tea Party was in influence. The Tea Party is just totally representative of what you Republicans really are worthless and totally lacks the ability of having any form of humanity in you.
Oh, MY! See Boehner run! RUN Boehner RUN!!
It's nice Boehner isn't going to waste the President's time anymore. Obama can cut directly to negotiating with someone who has the power to cut a deal without getting sonic-wedgied by his own caucus.
"Sonic wedgied" = CLASSIC
I suspect the "no more one-on-ones" between Boehner and Obama was Obama's idea. He seems to be losing his tolerance for the nonsense coming from the Hill.
Boehner: "If anyone wants me, I'll be in my room." SLAM!
where is drill drill drill baby Palin.... Lets see if we see her commenting on Fox if it starts to leak
There is still a war going on. Everybody who earns a paycheck will be paying more taxes. The speaker of the house won't deal with the president and he is bragging about it. Most of those who voted against hurricane relief were from the south. Scott Bown who served less then one term is leaving with full retirement benefits. Oh yeah and nobody is talking about the special interest groups who will benefit from this bill.
Red states get hurricane relief but Blue states do not? What happened to the United States of America - whoops forgot the Tea Party and it's denial that the Confederates lost the Civil War.
I can tell you right now the guest she is having tonight is against drone strikes. I'll have a debate any day of the week with him.
First of all this is Al-alwaki bio: http://awlaki.sethhettena.com/
And you want to argue to take this guy out when we have a shot at him?
Secondly, if we at actual intelligence before 9/11 that bin Laden was preparing for the attack, we should wait to see if we can take legal action? Absolutely no. Saving thousands of Americans is a little more important.
Just as the late Ambassador Holbroke told Rachel. War is hell and unfortunately there will be civilian casualties. We avoid them best we can but most of the time we get one chance to take out a guy we know is a terrorist out with a drone, we need to. The number of civilian casualties are taken from the word of the tribel people which will is greatly exaggerated. Drones avoid our kids from getting killed in action. And the accuracy of the drones are getting much better. There will always be some mistakes but they don't add up to 9-11. I love Rachel and agree with her on almost all of her positions except this one. She and her guest are totally wrong on the position they will be arguing tonight.
This is my argument for drone strikes. http://www.nytimes.com/roomfordebate/2012/09/25/do-drone-attacks-do-more-harm-than-good/drone-strikes-save-lives-american-and-other
Please inform all Republicans that the Democrats outvoted them for Congress by over a million votes. The House is controlled by Republicans thanks to gerrymandering. hj
I have the weirdest question and don't mean for this to sound sarcastic... In what country does boehner (BAY-NER) not sound like boehner (BOEH-NER)? How did he get that job any?
the word to best decribe Boehner: brat.
hard to believe an adult is acting like this. No wonder his family changed the pronunciation of the last name if they all act like this.
good luck to the 113th. They couldn't possibly have a worse showing than the 112th.....I hope.
@runaway oil rig in Alaska:
Read an report from Jay Holcomb at International Bird Rescue about teams on alert in Alaska, ready to respond should they be needed:

Did I miss something or is this blog strangely silent on AlGore selling Current TV to the Oil Sheiks?
Wow! Whoda thunkit? The liberals are as much in bed with the oil sheiks, who fund terrorists attacking the US and Europe, as righties like George the Bush!
Just another example of how the rich really aren't on our side when the chips are down. Rich taking care of the rich. AlGore: Sellout Of The Year!!
Is is possible to ask Joe from Morning Joe to move on to Fake News? His presence on the show is a distraction, he is totally condescending to Mika (who is by far the better commentator) and Joe would be much happier in the land of the right wing geeks on Fox. You don't have to go home, Joe, just go!
