Bennett on MTP - "We have children too!" and other desperate comments! [View all]

Did anyone catch Bennett's closing comments of desperation? First he points to a recent poll asking the American people if they prefer bigger government and more services or a larger economy and more jobs (seriously?), then he brings up some crap about how data and research show that "we" do more for others in the way of volunteering "our" time & money - we, as in the rich? conservatives? angry white guys? WTF? They then go to commercial break and come back on the air with pictures of Castro's adorable little girl and the gushing ensues, to which Bennett snidely comments, "We have children too." Who, I ask again, is "we"? White people? Rich people? Conservatives? "We have children too"? Seriously?
