Here's what I just posted on EVERY MSNBC show's Facebook page: [View all]

Dear (fill in the name of the host here) -
PLEASE!!!
MAKE THEM STOP IMMEDIATELY - claiming President Obama hasn't reached out to these people!!! AGAIN AND AGAIN he's extended his hand to them, over the last five years and all they've done, consistently, is spit into it.
WHY does no one on MSNBC EVER remind viewers how many times President Obama DID reach out to the GOP??? WHY is no one on your network reminding us about:
1) The cocktail parties the Obamas wanted to reintroduce at the White House when they first moved in - that republi-CONS were invited to en masse - and EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM turned the invitation down. NOBODY showed up.
2) The countless invitations to watch the Super Bowl in the White House. EVERY LAST ONE OF THE GOP who was invited TURNED IT DOWN.
3) The countless invitations to White House State Dinners with visiting dignitaries and world leaders. OVER AND OVER AGAIN, the Obamas invited republi-CONS. EVERY LAST ONE of the GOP refused the invitation. No-shows yet again.
4) The many invitations to White House screenings of either new movies OR Oscar-nominated films (during Oscar season) - invitations GALORE to the GOP - and NOT ONE OF THEM showed up!!!
CAN YOU GUYS PLEASE STOP SAYING OBAMA HASN'T REACHED OUT TO THESE CREEPS?????? Just exactly HOW SHORT is MSNBC's collective memory?

With chuck todd, I posted a couple of things, and in a brief subtopic about the teabaggers, I added this:
"All they want is anarchy, anyway. They simply want to bring down the government. Why is this not being pointed out more vigorously? Oh, I forgot - you said that's not your job. Sorry..."
