1. What about the "new"," bipartisan legislation"

that Joe Lieberman (of course) is supporting? It was created by a R and a D. It just takes a "back door" approach to killing medicare and other social programs. It is (I think ) "The Budget Ceiling Bil" or some other New-speak name....

2. Cenk does a fabulous job.

I only hope Democratic legislators will follow through. At this very moment Democrats can take advantage of these events to bolster their power. But only if they choose to do it.
