[nadinbrzezinski]

That was HYDE you stupid bofoon. You are trying to make abortion not attainable even when legal.

Oh and you ARE AN EXTREMISTS....

[WeDidIt]

1. Can't deny it, Stupak is a rightwing asshole

He should just switch parties already.

I hope he faces a primary challenge next year.

[Blue_In_AK]

2. You noticed that, too, huh?

[Hepburn]

3. He is beyond asshole, IMO. n/t

[me b zola]

4. Stupak is a lying ass.

And Matthews knows it. There have been people on Hardball that have explained how Stupak-Pitts goes further than Hyde. He should have called Stupak out for lying.

[nadinbrzezinski]

15. How so Charlie?

[polichick]

6. Who drafted this throwback to run as a Dem?? nt

[Sebastian Doyle]

10. I won't mention any names

But I'm guessing it was a short guy with a bad temper who may or may not be the current Chief of Staff.

[nadinbrzezinski]

16. Actually... look in the direction of C-Street

it is worst than Rham...

[babylonsister]

7. He went on faux his a.m. to plead his case. Judging from this, he has

no case...

Here's what we know at this point. First, Stupak had claimed that he representing a voting bloc of 40 votes, but as of this morning, he believes his faction is made up of "at least 10 to 15 to 20" House Dems who oppose abortion rights. For Speaker Pelosi and the House leadership, making up the loss of 40 votes is impossible to overcome. A 10-vote bloc represents a serious problem -- it would require some Dems who voted against the bill to change their minds -- but not an insurmountable hurdle.

Second, Stupak's amendment appears to have no shot at all in the Senate. It would need 60 votes, and it probably doesn't even have 50. The one conservative Dem who seemed the most supportive of the measure has since reversed course.

And third, Stupak can talk tough on "Fox & Friends," and the show's audience no doubt appreciates it, but he may not be able to back up the bravado. Rep. Diana DeGette (D-Colo.), co-chair of the Congressional Pro-Choice Caucus, argued this morning that when push comes to shove, Stupak won't be able to kill reform over this one issue.

12. My congresswoman is correct.

They're probably getting ready to lynch Stupidak over this extreme amendment and getting ready to force him to face the Ethics committee so he can get his ass tossed out on the street ala Traficant.

17. Ooohhhh I need to take notes

sounds great for some fiction... oh wait, life, stranger than fiction...

[eleny]

8. Referring to himself as a moderate was a through the looking glass moment

[nadinbrzezinski]

18. That's how they do it though

LOOK AT ME, I am the Moderate!!!!!!!!!!

THEY are the extremists. They get no challenge, and they create a reality with the help of the media...

[HughMoran]

9. right-wing troll

we don't need you. leave the party.

[Hawkeye-X]

11. More reason to strip Stupidak's committee assignments, kick him out of the caucus

and force him to raise money fighting off against a well-funded DCCC sponsored primary candidate.

13. I wonder who is an ass, stupak or the leadership allowing this? /nt

[Atticus]

14. I got a phone call just as he was repeating his lies ("preserve current law") or I would have "beat

you to the post". I was not planning on being so kind, however. I will defer to your choice of terms and agree, wholeheartedly, that the man is---at least---an ass.

As for Tweety, I had so tired of his constant excited squealing about Lil' Sarah that I had directed several less than complimentary emails to his show's website and had stopped tuning in until this evening when I just got distracted and didn't change the channel after Ed's show. What a mistake! So far, I've heard him let Stupak lie without calling him on it and heard him agree that Obama really shouldn't have bowed to the Japanese emperor.

Why doesn't MSNBC just give Boehner an open mike for an hour each evening?

[nadinbrzezinski]

19. Tweety is a personality thing

and I decided to keep the language at PG 13.

But serious at times tweet is more or less the liberal he used to be... and at time I am going... WTF dude? Oh yeah balance and all that... :sarcasm:

[Nikki Stone1]

20. Easy way to tell him he's an ass:

[nadinbrzezinski]

21. I know, I know

I wish I could tell him in person though YOU ARE AN ASS!

(Keeping my language PG 13 ok)
