Big Ed is borrowing a page from Stephen Colbert tonight.
Just as Colbert scrolled the names of those who donated to his Super PAC across the bottom of the TV screen during his show, Ed is running the names of the senators who voted against the jobs bill on his show! :rofl:

1. Is he adding the list of their Corporate Donors?
That should become as common as the 'D' or 'R' after their names from now on.

6. Yes, he should do that.

But then it would take three days to scroll all the names just once.

2. Big Ed did it last night, too.
I sure do wish other programs would scroll those votes and not just Ed. Do the repukes in Congress think that there are no republicans needing jobs? Are the repuke people too stupid to realize what their congress critters are doing? I JUST DON'T GET IT! Not all 99%ers are Dems. There are poor repukes, too.

4. They don't even bother with the veneer of

compassion anymore. They want everyone to worship the rich, feel ashamed and responsible for being poor/unemployed, and vote for the powerful for (so-called) moral and aspirational reasons. As well as the usual social conservative fear, obsession, and hatred based tropes.

As fucked up as this is, this is the kind of people we're dealing with.
