Paul Begala on being slimed by the right-wing media

Paul Begala talked to Campus Progress' second summer conference in DC [Campus Progress is a project of the Center for American Progress]. He talked about being slimed by the right-wing noise machine from his appearance at the same conference one year ago.

I like the passion Paul shows around 11.50 about his political views - he's a genuine liberal - he does care about the progressive agenda and not just a latte liberal

"THE FOREHEAD"

beatle: what part of his talk doesn't make sense to you?

[crimeforadime]

Holy Shit he's funny!

Are you sure you are not talking about the Bush years, fifimvm? If you look at the numbers during the Clinton era, you will see more people move out of poverty and into the middle class.

[fjfjvmvm]

Look at who benefited during the Clinton years. The super-rich did incredibly well. The military contractors did well. The Iraqis, Latin Americans and others in the third world were hurt terribly. Low wage workers in the US actually lost ground while the middle class stagnated.

So Begala's words are great. But the reality is that the interests he serves are Goldman Sachs and McDonald Douglas. How can you take him seriously?
