MJ has interesting people on the show. I mute the ones that make me ill or I simply turn the set off and head for the shower. I only take what I want. Sometimes I want to hear the talking points of the other side, which Joe generally supplies, so I know the parameters of the issue du jour. Joe usually has the other side represented and/or like today when he had pushback from some of his regular guests telling him he's wrong.

Tomorrow they'll have Rep. Cummings on the show and that should be great. I just saw the clip of his remarks at the hearing yesterday. He was terrific! He didn't attack Hicks or the others testifying. He attacked Issa and his politicization of the issue. So I'm definintely going to watch him on tomorrow's show.
