I think it was Joe “A Dead Woman Was Found in my Office” Scarborough. What NONE of them (either Scarborough or Meeeeeeka, or any of the 3 others sitting there) realized is that humans simply do not watch all networks, all day. Surprise! Yes! They think the average American tunes into 3 network Sunday shows PLUS CNN PLUS a Hispanic one, PLUS Letterman. Why are the talking heads doing this? If *I* can think of this question, any American can. Which leads me to believe they are deliberately trying to screw Obama.</p> I heard this pearl-clutching on MSNBC, too.

Had a round with a winger over at the seminal.firedoglake yesterday, with him insisting that it was ‘personal irresponsibility’ to file suit for getting a hospital caused staph infection.
