Mike Lupica on Morning Joe:
Coupla things:
Ari Melber: Dude - land the plane. If you have a point to make, then make the fuckin' point.
Nicole Wallace: Among the pimpiest of the pimps. She sat there and heard Lupica say it very plainly; and she knew exactly what Melber was trying to say; but she tries to position it as a matter of law; or nothing more than a way to use a political issue to get votes.
Which is where (I hope) the Dems should be able to find their leverage - the guns issue is about what we mean when we say "American Values". It's about being willing to make a conscious decision to change something in our lives - even if it means having to sacrifice something near and dear to us - in an effort to make life here in USAmerica Inc a little better for most of us, not to mention making life simply fucking possible for the 700 or 800 kids who get blown away every year because gutless wonders in the GOP think their NRA paychecks are more important than the lives of our kids.
Why are we allowing anybody to treat children like this - ours or anybody else's?
It's The Morality, Stupid.
