What I noticed was the two "establishment" folks on Melissa's show did not want to ge over the cliff. So Richard Kim and Bob Herbert did want to go over the cliff, but those hooked into the Obama/Pelosi/Reid establishment did not want to be on record advocating it. They would probably get in trouble is they said so.

I have seen that show a zillion times in my life. So now I have to decide do they want it but can't say it, or is it just too radical an idea for them?

Ideas outside the conversation. That is such a good concept.

Global Warming is certainly at the top of that list. But I could list 20 in the next few minutes. All the way from the war on drugs to the free education and universal health care, massive effort to increased unionization, and on and on.

People call those kinds of ideas radical. I call them correct.
