Dylan Ratigan Absolutely Destroys Brad Blakemen Over GOP's Opposition to Health Reform

(Via Heather, http://crooksandliars.com ) I'm no fan of Dylan Ratigan but I enjoyed seeing someone, anyone rip into Brad Blakeman for once. I've just got no use for Blakeman after watching one too many of his interviews on MSNBC. He's a class A jerk, liar and unashamed shill for the Republican Party no matter how wrong what they're doing may be for the country. Ratigan, unfortunately, is determined to push this whole "the left does it too" and "all sides are equal" B.S. during this segment, but it was just about worth putting up with to watch Blakeman flailing in the wind here.

it's not that democrats have not done a good enough job … they have done nothing.  they have a solution in mind and they do not bother to discuss it to the voters. Ha, both parties are just hoping we all keep arguing so they can hide behind all of this idiocy.

[justgivemethetruth]

in other words the republican will not say what they want to do until they are in power … this is the kind of "information" that americans are supposed to vote on … might as well toss a coin.

@MrVTECKiller yeah, but he was the epitome of Ronald Reagan to the 10th degree. What he did in deficit spending added up to more than all presidents before him combined.

@Paolo7219 I think we can blame more than "Bush" administration for all of this. It's been happening for decades not just a couple presidential terms. :)

[hansson2000]

democrats will have to realize that they are doing politics letting the belif that two party system works in the benefits for them.

[bushidobrother06]

well the left DOES do the same crap!

@starmanskye I could, in fact sir, relay to you the Al-Anfal campaign in which genocide was waged against the Kurds of Northern Iraq using American weaponry, much to our shame. The difference between myself and the likes of you, is that I think it’s a positive step to dispose dictators and support democracy, obviously some others preferred it the other way around because then simple-minded anti-war popularism was easy to justify.

@starmanskye Typical Chomski-ite; blame American first. In fact, sir, I could label and expand on the US crimes in Iraq, Iran and Vietnam but you make the same mistake all anti-war masochists make- because we've committed crimes in the region before, that means we can't correct those mistakes now. Typical whimpering, no-good slogans from the surrender and withdrawal types. Oh, and I'm not American, I was born in Canada to an English mother and an Indian father, thanks (cont)

@starmanskye If you're accusing me of stating that Fascist theocrats are the enemy, and an inferior civilianisation, then yes, I'm guilty as charged. This struggle should've been a cause for the secular left, but they've failed, and willingly failed at that. This isn't a struggle that one can simply sit-out, I DO support the rights of homosexual not to be stoned to death, I DON'T support the throwing of acid in unveiled women etc. Your lot has failed this test sir, and it's disgraceful.
