Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) made several questionable comments regarding social security and potential cuts. Cenk Uygur breaks them down.

1. Durbin's position on Social Security is a prime example of why voting for liberals is casting a vote
for Business Party #2. We need to get to work on building an alternative to the two business parties.

5. Huh? How is Durbin a "liberal" exactly
Liberal/Progressive and Democrat are not necessarily the same thing.

2. This is what happens
when elected officials no longer represent the people who put them in office.

Durbin doesn't care if there's political fallout. At worst he cashes in and takes a corporate position that's already promised and waiting.

He has nothing to lose. He knows who he really represents and what is expected of him. And that's that.

He was arguing for the war and Rand Paul was arguing against it for shit's sake. :puke:

6. Durbin another corporate tool
Just makes me feel like vomiting. Many of the elderly I meet, hope they die before their money runs out.
