I am not a fan of Senator Burris as I think his zeal for the seat allowed him to be used and ridiculed by the disgraced governor of Illinois. That said this poem redeems him if only for the 3 minutes 31 second duration of the clip. Viewers are encouraged to subscribe and join the conversation for […]
President Barack Obama : Where We Stand #p2 #hcr #politics
I am not naive. I am not easily convinced. I am with the President as I am now convinced that whether he had fought hard or not for the Public Option, the Senators (not only Lieberman but many others) were quietly against it irrespective of there public statements. That said giving the Right a talking […]

MediaMatters could not have had a better pick this year. Dear Friend, Every day, Media Matters documents conservative misinformation in the media — from cable news to right-wing radio, from online publications to major newspapers.

Democrats: Stop screaming and pass health reform #hcr #p2 #politics
Progressives listen up! E.J.’s analysis on the structural deficiency of the inner workings of the Senate on its own dictate the passage of this bill.

MUST READ: The Insidious Myth of Reconciliation #p2 #hc3 #politics
For those who believe reconciliation was an option to circumvent Democrats that have sold their souls to the insurance companies, Nate Silver’s analysis is very sobering. I think when all is said and done if Healthcare Reform passes, then the negotiating tactic performed by the President will ultimately go down in history as genius as […]
Victoria Kennedy: The moment Ted Kennedy would not want to lose #hcr #politics #p2
My late husband, Ted Kennedy, was passionate about health-care reform. It was the cause of his life. He believed that health care for all our citizens was a fundamental right, not a privilege, and that this year the stars — and competing interests — were finally aligned to allow our nation to move forward […]
Markos Moulitsas on Meet The Press on #hcr correct with nuance #politics #p2
I love DailyKos’ Markos Moulitsas’ passion for healthcare reform. I share that same passion. In a Senate that needs a super majority to pass this bill with some controls on the health insurance companies, incrementalism is necessary given the insurance paid off Democratic Senators. Though many want the bill passed by reconciliation, any bill passed […]
Joe Biden: Why the Senate Should Vote Yes on Health Care #p2 #hcr #politics
By JOE BIDEN Published: December 19, 2009 IF I were still a United States senator, I would not only vote yes on the current health care reform bill, I would do so with the sure knowledge that I was casting one of the most historic votes of my 36 years in the Senate. […]
