Tony Weiner (D-NY) ROCKS!
Edited on Tue Aug-18-09 07:08 AM by ddeclue
He's really beating the crap out of the insurance companies on Joe Scarborough - asking "why are we giving them a piece of the pie?"

Scarborough to his credit is giving Tony a more or less open mike. Would never happen on FauxNews!

Scarborough is smart enough to walk softly.

6. He needs to be front and center making the case for single-payer healthcare.
Obama has been awful so far. Weiner was BRILLIANT on MoJo.

5. He rocks because he's profoundly against private health
care and he's not trying to be all things to all people.

9. Joey the scab says they are going to try to have Anthony back on thursday
Bet that don't happen. I don't and usualy won't watch this show but from what others are saying here this morning made me turn it on and I am loving this. Sure happy to say that joey the scab was reduced to more of a stammering fool than he usually is.

18. I guarantee on Thursday Scar won't go one-on-one with Weiner like today.
He'll have a panel consisting of his best, most reliable and aggressive toadies. All going after Weiner like a tag team.

15. Weiner should be national spokesman for single payer.
He should train a dozen other people to do exactly what he does.

Insurance cos would be finished, propaganda campaigns and all.
