Olbermann with a special comment on obama's potential cutting of medicare and social security while continuing to spend money on killing people. it is pretty powerful stuff....the part below is pretty much exactly the way i feel about this issue....

"I find I cannot forecast if the rest of us, battered by your compromises here and your 'it's a start's' there, will bother any longer to defend you. I find I can't forecast if I will still be able to support you ... if this deal with the Republicans takes a dollar away from those people who do not have a dollar to spare while preserving the millions for those who have millions more, if this deal, sir, keeps intact funding the mechanisms we have for killing people while cutting the mechanisms we have for keeping people alive and healthy, then it is a betrayal of everything that makes this country great."

be sure to watch both videos...

    110% agree. Going in this direction will kill any decency this country stands for.
