We Remember Why We Liked Chris Matthews

Here's a clip of Rep. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tennessee) on MSNBC last night, explaining how Republicans will cut vague "discretionary spending" to achieve magical savings. Chris Matthews is like "What will you cut? WHAT WILL YOU CUT?" The poor man's apoplectic!

This was the single best interview we saw all night. Evade the question at your own peril, ridiculous lying Congressperson! Chris Matthews, you're alright. (Today).

The Seattle Times calls it for Patty Murray. The Western firewall remains intact.

Welcome back for another six years, Sen. Murray!

More Blue Dog Fail
by John Cole

Complete idiots:

Last summer, we met the Democrats who hated the unemployed—the 16 House votes from the majority party against an emergency extension of unemployment benefits. They were:

John Adler, D-N.J.
Brian Baird, D-Wash.
Melissa Bean, D-Ill.
Marion Berry, Blue Dog-Ark.
Bobby Bright, Blue Dog-Ala.
Travis Childers, Blue Dog-Miss.
Jim Cooper, Blue Dog-Tenn.
Joe Donnelly, Blue Dog-Ind.
Stephanie Herseth Sandlin, Blue Dog-S.D.
Baron Hill, Blue Dog-Ind.
Frank Kratovil, Blue Dog-Md.
Betsy Markey, Blue Dog-Colo.
Jim Marshall, Blue Dog-Ga.
Walt Minnick, Blue Dog-Idaho
Glenn Nye, Blue Dog-Va.
Heath Shuler, Blue Dog-N.C.

These brave politicians bucked their free-spending, ultra-liberal party, and cast votes in favor of fiscal responsibility. And for their willingness to oppose Barack Obama’s liberal agenda, nearly all of them were rewarded with early (and ironic) retirement from public service.


I’m particularly happy to see Herseth Sandlin retired, and for the sheer number of spam emails, Betsy Markey can just drop dead for all I care
