Jan 2013

primary debate with Obama, Clinton, Biden, Edwards, Dodd, Kucinich....seems like that 'no Democrat should go' bridge got crossed and recrossed many times, over many years....
I find it amusing that folks who were just fine with Rachel and MSNBC paying Pat Buchanan the nation's leading bigot to comment as if he was something other than a hate monger are all whiney that Dennis is taking pay from Fox to speak his mind. To repeat: MSNBC paid Buchanan the racist. They called him 'Uncle Pat'. They cut checks to him for speaking hate....
Personally, I find what Dennis is doing far less repugnant than calling Buchanan uncle and paying him hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Buchanan gave perhaps the single most homophobic political speech in American history yet Rachel hosted him again and again and again. And she did so for the same reason Dennis is working at FoxNews. People need to earn money and aside from the money, they need to work.
