Well done, Markos.
In a single sentence, Markos has done what the MSM should have been doing continually; and what the spineless majority is helpless to accomplish: confronting a coward.
Tancredo is an indictment of the deterioration of our hold on the system; infestation with pretentious phonies.
The bloggers have no master to obey and it is a breath of fresh air to watch them ignore the commands of the house masters even at the chiding of the "house-dogs."
It's great to be free, and "the truth will set you free."
Same principle here: "You don't agree with me, so that's the end of the discussion, I'm leaving."
So pathetic.
I signed up yesterday at FOX News web site so I cold comment that they NEVER mention in the article that Carrie Prejean had a sex tape. The article on FOX stated that the law suite ended. NO MENTION of the sex tape.
I signed up at FOX and left a comment. I was accepted on FOX NEWS to make comments.
I made a comments during he day. NOT ONE of my comments ever showed up on the article about Prejean.
So you are correct. Right Wing Sites don't ALLOW opposing comments.
Such a fragile flower... dude needs to man up! :)
This has been another edition of "Bullies Flee When Confronted!"
More episodes please...
For YEARS, the right-wing cowards got away with the "Don't interrupt me!" line. Yet, they could interrupt any time they liked. That finally has almost stopped. (Well, it has on the shows I watch.)
Every time (EVERY time) a right-winger was called out, they ran crying to daddy. (Ann Coulter comes to mind.) Sad that Americans never cared about this until their jobs have gone poof. I feel really bad about that, but there WAS a silver lining -- it made Americans wake up.
You get a cookie tonight.... You've been good . Enjoyed your take down of that creep.
Meanwhile, the GOP had the balls to savage John Kerry.
Good for Marcos. He did not have to preface his statements with, "veterans tell me." He is a vet.
Tancredo is just an airbag.
He would have informed the audience that he, Tancredo, was going to introduce a bill to abolish the government-run health care plan for legislators in favor of individual health care plans. That they were planning to pull themselves up by their own bootstraps.
Right, Tom? Tom...Tom...right, huh, right?
Typical GOP logic.
You have no idea, pal, no idea, of what you are talking about.
Ms Shoshannna Johson shot down that Hate Monger Lawyer for trying to pass himself off bas a combat vet. then tried to shoot her down for not knowing what combat is, then she attacked beautifully announcing she was a COMBAT VET. and a EX POW DUH!
Then there is the clown Trancredo oh yes he speaks for us VETS (ha ha) markos shoots him down with his own draft doding deferment of he was depressed so he couldn't serve. Then the FOOL trencredo wants a apology ha ha, go wave a flag COWARD or try for a photo op isn't that what you COWARDS on the RIGHT good at.
Now we come to the human piece of Hate Mongering SH*T clled jerome corsi, talking his Ignorant, Nazi, Fascist SH*T and LIES about a MAJOR being a adviser to the then Senator Mr. Obama.
Yeah its been a beautiful 24 hours watching hese Nazis being shot down and their own words being used against them, just beautiful.
Limbaugh stepped in to substitute for Pat Sajak's late night talk show in the late 1980's. It went off the rails almost immediately, Limbaugh got a veritable earful and the studio audience had to be cleared.
I don't believe rush was asked again.
Lesson learned: don't claim to speak for somebody who you don't represent.
I saw it live.
It was incredible.
I guess Tancredo is like Cheney and Limbaugh and having "health" issues to get out of military duty during Vietnam
i've been waiting a long time for someone to make tommy tancredo cry. i have a serious crush on markos :)
And Markos wasn't going to let Tancredo get away with the lies.
Sort of like how John A has spoken the truth about the DNC and the lie they perpetuated this week....and John called him out on it.
Now if we can only get more Dems to fight like Markos, Aravosis and Garyson of Florida
Shuster is an okay fill-in, but he is too nice. I think we need more vociferous and passionate commentators. I have no problem with loud, as long as the rhetoric isn't empty. Ultimately, they are all entertainers anyway, and I would be willing to bet that Ed Schultz is being directed to be larger than life. They sure do not want him to be reserved and deferential. It's a ratings game.
Fortunately, Ed has the moral ground to back up his arguments. Somebody needs to stir some fire in the belly of Democrats.
These cowards threw down the gaunglet, now let us Veterans pick it up and beat the living SH*T out of these COWARDS. There is more to this Country then Photo Ops, Flag Waving and Rhetoric of Patriotism with which if left in the hands of thee COWARDS (as proven with the Gutless, Spineless, COWARD and American TRAITOR cheney) they would SELL us OUT. So yeah this piece off SH*T got exactly what he deserved the TRUTH something theHate Mongering Nazi Right does NOT know.
When Tancredo was misrepresenting the consensus of veterans over the VA by invoking a generality, claiming every group he spoke to would rather have private insurance vouchers? Yes.
Sauce for the goose.
Unsupported. Even allowing for the possibility of such an occurance, it is hardly grounds to disband a functioning program, particularly in light of the catastrophic attempt at privatization a.k.a. The Walter Reed debacle.
"Anyone who believes that the government can support national healthcare has never served a day in the military."
Your statement has been demonstrably and conclusively invalidated not only by other nations whose longevity, infant mortality and cost per person puts ours to shame, but other countries who sport national healthcare don't contend with medical cost bankruptcies and customers being arbitrarily dropped or refused for pre-existing conditions, thereby raising the overall costs nationally. A properly funded system, as opposed to a system that republicans are incessantly attempting to beggar and subsequently eliminate, operates superlatively to the present private US system which distributes bonuses for effectively condemning patients to their deaths in a craven effort to save pieces of silver.
Walk away, micbro.
I grew up in a military family.
we never went anywhere but to the base hospital for anything, except for once when a sibling broke a leg and we were in the middle of nowhere, U.S.A.
I had never had a physical by anyone but a military doctor until I was over 21.
Based on your comments about the military healthcare system which serves both active duty and their dependents, it's obvious you have never served in any branch of the armed services.
It was intended and well deserved.
No, it's my b'day weekend and that means parties and that means I'll be in no condition to hike. ;)
It's my sister's birthday today as well, go Scorpios!
hope you have a great weekend!
I liked my 20s and I loved my 30s, so if this patten holds I'm expecting something close to awesome in my 40s.
Clouds are occasionally a safe place to hide, but they embody no weight.
You cannot counter the bald fact that other countries are, contrary to the Tancredo ilk, operating universal healthcare plans unless, of course, you're suggesting that they are clearly able to perform a straightforward program which the "greatest nation on earth" finds beyond their collective ingenuity to adopt and duplicate.
Due mainly to the republican wing, with contributions from industry-beholden democrats.
2. Our democratically elected government has forgotten that their purpose is to serve the people, replacing service with self service.
3 Any idea from "the other side" is crushed due to partisan loyalty.
This is the way it works, lad.
Very nice. I must say, although we obviously disagree on many issues, I do admire the way you write. Btw, I did exaggerate the "6 or 7 hrs for an aspirin" point, but I did serve in the Navy and I remember waiting hours and hours (5 hrs was not unusual) for routine physicals, vision checks, dental procedures, etc. It is due to the large number of patients vs. the number of available medical pros.
I wonder if this incident will cause Tancredo to spiral?
So the guy who voted for Bush has something to thank Obama for.
He want's to give out vouchers so people can choose a private sector insurer. Funny how that just pumps money up insurance companies asses.
The same insurance companies that own so many politicians dem and repug, and pumps cash up THEIR asses too.
