oh haaaaayyyyyy! look @ that, a republican w/a realistic viewpoint on tax policy
UPDATE!
thank you mr. bartlett!
thanks lawrence!
i wish we could get more sensible analysis of economic policy.
i really appreciate lawrence o'donnell's show, the last word's ability to book guests from all political stripes, beat them down w/rational & logical arguments, then convince them to return!
this is in no way a knock on my msnbc crush, rachel maddow. i believe conservative politicians are just afraid to come on her show.
anyway, here's a great exchange between lawrence and former reagan administration domestic policy adviser bruce bartlett on some of the cockamamie tax proposals by republican candidates for president:

councilman joel burns & his husband j.d. angle interviewed on msnbc's the last word
this interview was done last night, during lawrence o'donnell's the last word.
it's a great view of the lead-up to mr. burns' epic speech at the fort worth city council.
something that mr. angle, a political consultant, said really made an impression on me & it's something that politicians should live by:
"when our elected officials and our public servants act with courage and integrity, they're almost always right."
words to represent by.

motherfuckers need to pay attention! #whyimvotingDEMOCRAT!!
i read/listen/watch/breathe/eat/drink politics 23/7.
y'all may have noticed.
we're less than a month away from the midterm elections.
the meme is that democrats are plagued by an "enthusiasm gap".
the meme is that democrats are going to lose big this election.
the meme is that in the last year + 1/2, the administration hasn't done anything/enough.
the reality is that while we're not out of the shit hole [dug by politicians of the republican persuasion], we ARE on our way out of said shit hole.
took 8 years, for a previous administration & a compliant senate/house of reps, to get us in said shit hole.
com'n sonnn! it's gonna take a bit longer & lots MORE hard work to get out of it.
peep:

the unrealistic dream of "bipartisan" health insurance reform
i really don't get it!
the white house wants the almighty olympia snowe to vote for their watered down version of the public plan in order to achieve the holy grail of a "bipartisan" bill. they hope that she will attract d.i.n.o's [democrats in name only] to vote along w/her. does the white house not realize that their critics will still call foul, they will still call this "socialist" legislature, they will say the white house "rammed" the bill through, etc., etc.? it doesn't matter how "bipartisan" the bill is president obama, your critics will still call you hitler, anti-christ, mao tse-tung, et al.
why not just get the best bill passed, get a robust public option that covers a majority of united states citizens? remember your campaign promise of health care for all?!
have you seen the polls that show that less americans now consider themselves republicans than EVER?! if the white house gets a real health insurance overhaul bill passed through, if it truly helps citizen's access to health care, the democratic party [which you are a part of] will be compensated w/votes. if you pass REAL health insurance reform, the democratic party will reign for a loooooong time.
i understand the health insurance insurance industry is in the pockets of some of the administration [maybe not now, but surely in the past], but this is a cross roads, the obama white house will go down in history for not only having the 1st black president, but for passing legislature that changed this country in a deeply & positively profound way.
STOP this "bipartisan" wet dream! it's not realistic & it really will not be effective in providing us w/the help we need.
i am nearly $20,000 in the hole w/the health care industry because i happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. a [most likely] drunk driver ran a red light & i was struck while riding my bicycle at about 25 mph. my story is nothing compared to the woman who was shot by a suicidal killer & now is in debt for all the care she received, or the baby who was too "obese" to receive health insurance, or my friend's roommate who was struck by a car while [also] riding his bicycle & spent weeks in intensive care, or the riverboat gamblers' guitarist who was also in a bicycle vs. auto wreck & is still in intensive care along w/a quickly growing pile of bills next to him [help here]. these stories are just a handful of the millions out there.
help us, help your country!
