Didn't Brat get befuddled when Chuck Todd asked him about Syria and say he was just doing celebratory interviews and didn't want hard questions? Looks like Tweety Bird is as clueless as ever.

Nice, holding an entire generation for all of the problems in our nation; seems rational to me!

Got a link, to back that up?

Not the boomers I know. You need to get out more.

Chris revered Tip O'Neill and how the two old Irishmen could raise hell with partisan politics during the day, but still respect each other enough to share a drink after hours and talk about what they could do to work together to accomplish things. The Gipper and Tip knew when to compromise. Chris respected that.

Perhaps Senior Citizens should ask Brat what he would do with Medicare.

Now you know how we feel. We don't really care about promoting investment in business to create more jobs and healthier economy, we just want rich people to get richer. We don't really believe that human life begins at conception, we just want to control women's bodies. We don't really believe that Obamacare is an unworkable way to improve healthcare, we just want children with downs syndrome to fend for themselves. We don't really believe that our elections should be secured from corruption, we just want to bring back Jim Crow laws. It's fun having someone else misrepresent what your motivations are true thoughts are in order to make you appear to be completely different than you really are, isn't it?

A few months ago the left was exclaiming "the TEA party is dead!" while the independents and Libertarians in here were trying to tell them they were wrong.

I wonder if Cantor still doubts just how strong the TEA people are.


Farrow asked Matthews, “Is it rare to see that kind of brazen intellectualism, particularly in populist candidates like this?”

“Well, first of all, I don’t think you can assume that the liberals are smarter than the conservative professors,” Matthews immediately shot back.

See how imbecilic Farrow's question was? The arrogance is just dripping off that guys tongue and Mathews called him on it.

and then one of the brightest statements I have ever heard, and a shock from him:
“So this looking down our noses at Tea Party people has got to stop,” Mathews added. “They have a message, they are as American as any liberal is, and they are really angry at the failure of the system.”

One of the few times Mathews got it exactly right!

Nice to see Matthews having enough gumption to admit that he's licked.

Don't forget to add that "whenever we call out the President for lying or flat out irresponsible acts" we are told it isn't because he's wrong, but because we are racists.

@jacqueq It's pretty crappy to be continually told we are something we aren't, while what we are saying and why is being completely ignored. It's called pride and arrogance, and "pride goes before the fall"
