Double feature today
First Jon Stewart's great shot at CNBC if you missed it you missed perfection in political commentary so here it is
Second is the charge that the Democratic Party is putting too much emphasis on Rush Limbaugh as the leader of the Republican Party. After all the apologies to Rush in the past and now from Michael Steele (Head of the RNC) perhaps the Democratic Party is just letting us know the real force behind the GOP.
I wrote this on Newsvine yesterday and can only imagine why the Republican Party bows to this angry vile charlatan and some of the other wingnut preachers. That is their base and unless they (the GOP) joins most of this country in shunning people like Rush their base will continue to shrink. If they don't also start contributing to solutions for the economic problems of this country they will wither and die. They did get the South by refusing to support Civil Rights but perhaps that will end soon when unemployed southerners realize it was NOT the Republican that voted to help them with jobs, housing, health care and energy shortages and high prices.
* Note Speaking of Health Care - We all remember the GOP adage "Law of Supply and Demand" somehow I think they forgot the other adage about "Charging what the Market will Bear." I figure someone may soon figure out the Market can no longer bear unbearable profit.
