Abramoff on Up with Chris Hayes

[malaise]

Chris has some tough questions

[taterguy]

1. Please provide a comprehensive description for those of without a TV

Thanks in advance for your cooperation.

[malaise]

5. Says there is no law- it's acceptable behaviour

Sestak says once you take a strong position (enhanced by talk shows) lobbyists cut you off.

[malaise]

7. Hayes is nailing the bastard re ReTHUG ideology

and corrupt norms - he is using the OECD countries and government involvement along with Transparency International's data showing that regulation by government does not mean corrujption.

[Graybeard]

2. "Why should we listen to anything you say?"

The first question put to him (and that's why I like Chris Hayes so much.)

[malaise]

6. Chris is nailing their ideology of destroying government with

their practice of destroying government through corruption.

[Graybeard]

8. That was great ( and in his face).

They believe government is too big and corruptable and then they become lobbyists and totally corrupt it. And now he's on the air saying government should be made smaller, "Look how corrupt it is"!

[malaise]

9. That should be all over YouTube

[mfcorey1]

10. *1000000000

[malaise]

11. Bernie Sanders up next

yeeeeeeeeeeeees!

[Cooley Hurd]

3. The chyron below Abramoff: "A Lobbyist with Convictions"

[malaise]

4. Truly beautiful

Says lobbying is bribery plain and simple

[WCGreen]

12. Wonderful tag line....

[Graybeard]

13. Good panel this morning.

Bob Herbert
Joe Sestak
Katrina Vanden Heuval
(and that creepy Abramoff
is still there.)!?

14. Great show today. I hope he's there when Bernie comes on

He is. Can't wait to see him go after Abramoff

[malaise]

15. Here he comes right now with a great question

from Chris

[malaise]

16. Yeh he's still there n/t

[cal04]

17. he actually agreed with Bernie

thanks for the post malaise

[Graybeard]

19. But he added a slap on the Unions.

Rethug talking point: George Soros and the Unions are, "Just as bad". F*ck you creep!

[cal04]

20. I heard that too. No matter who he blames

he's corrupt and shouldn't be talking about anyone

[Sienna86]

18. Another point

Money doesn't even need to exchange hands. A SuperPAC can simply approach a legislator and say IF you support this, we will spend $10 million on your opponent in the next election.
