Thanks guys!

I'm so glad people are seeing this! What they really NEED to see, though, is the video of Thomas Roberts NOT ALLOWING that little NRC prick to have his say, unchecked and without challenge! chuck todd (also known as "Todd-Blossom" among other things) could take a lesson. He certainly needs to be schooled as to how hosts and moderators MUST set the record straight when one side is spewing bullshit! Failing to do so (or in todd's case, REFUSING to do so) just lets the bullshit stand as though it were somehow fact-based as well. It HAS TO be talked down!!!! Even SHOUTED down if necessary!
