Watch below as FireDogLake blogsistah Jane calls out a self-defined "Responsible Liberal-Centrist" (cough).
Odds are that Lanny the lobbyist's lobbyist will never show his smug little DLC smirk on the Ed Show again for fear of getting confronted about whether or not he's still Lieberman's all-time favorite PACman.
I have had it with the corporate-sponsored shell game that these senate Blue Dogs have been playing. It's now time to start really pushing for the Obamacare bill to be the reform that Obama promised.
As the winter wears on, if cabin fever starts creeping over you, take the time to check out the top 10 list of undisputed facts about Lanny Davis so that next time he pops up on the teevee representing what he thinks is the "Responsible Liberal-Centrist" wing of the Dems, you'll realize he's just another corporate-owned DLC toady. Because over the coming holidays, you can surely expect to see Lanny Davis right along with Harold Ford, Jr., and a host of other stinking Blue Dogs and C-Street corporate shills on the cable news selling America their lousy Senate bill.
Just don't bank on seeing anyone from the Democrat wing of the Democratic party like Jane Hamsher, Howard Dean, or Dennis Kucinich get equal time. And as for a getting valuable and factual input from a real insurance industry expert like Wendell Potter on the news spilling the beans about how what a giant giveaway the Senate version is to their insurance industry bosses, well, the three major network news broadcasts have, so far, suspiciously overlooked him. Could that be because they don't want to hear what he has to say?
