Rachel
was on fire Tuesday night. I’m sorry for the delay in getting these
to you. They are must-watch TV.
RACHEL
I – “CHECK!”
Here she shows John Boehner ticking off the four
things Republicans wanted in the health care reform bill – and, after
each one, shows where it is in the Senate bill that they oppose.
All
four.
Even
a start on tort reform.
One
after another, she checks them all off.
It’s
a devastating eight minutes that I urge you to watch.
Urge,
urge, urge.
RACHEL
II – KILLIBUSTER
This second clip highlights the Republican propensity to say no to everything – even
things they themselves proposed. It will
make you want to jump through the TV and put the filibuster back in its
rightful, Jimmy Stewart place.
Urge,
urge, urge.
Really,
try to find the time for these clips.
RACHEL
III - HYPOCRISY
Finally,
there’s this clip showing
Republican after Republican trashing the stimulus package, voting against it,
and then taking credit for the projects it financed.
The
country’s in trouble, folks. Having an opposition Party focused so
singularly on producing “Waterloo” rather than solutions is not the
way to help.
Take
a snow day to watch these three clips . . . cancel your lunch date, if need be
. . . or, better still, invite your lunch date over to watch these clips with
you.
