  • Glenns questions, my answers:

    What will this photo say? Answer: Usama Bin Laden is dead
    Does releasing this photo make the USA more or less safe? Answer: more safe
    Will releasing the photo convince anyone that he is really dead? Answer: yes
    Is the world more or less stable with Usama Bin Laden dead? Answer: more stable in the long run
    Why risk Pakistan’s wrath by killing Usama Bin Laden? Answer: justice
    What does it mean that this will be the most viewed image in history? Answer: it is important to see him dead for closure, the digital age is amazing

    Glenn, you are wrong on this one. Hearing Bin Laden is dead is great and all but I need to see him dead so that I can make it real and tangible instead of just academic. That is important to me. Furthermore, the comfort of justice gives unto the victims some authority to see justice done with their own eyes, not merely told about it second hand. 

    Fear of not seeing justice done fully and in the light of day because of what someone else may or may not do is no way for a country to live.

    I agree with you on that more happened during this raid than we are being told.

  • Ryan’s plan includes another 30+ years of deficit spending until we finally have even one year of a balanced budget, never mind the actual national debt… and that assumes that the next 30+ years of congresses won’t just throw out his plan when they draft the next yearly budget.

    This is better than the last budget deal but still a pathetic joke.

    We are still watching a puppet show folks.

    Real reform this is not. Don’t be duped yet again, please.

  • Whoa, the Tea Party members did NOT run on a 100 billion dollar cut. That 100 billion was the Republican “pledge”, which amounts to barely 1% of the budget… an f’ing joke. The Tea Pary members ran on balancing the budget and cutting the size of government.

    Ryans plan is better but still takes 26 years to balance the budget. That is still a joke.

  • 39 billion, what an f’ing joke and insult.

    I’m sick of this puppet show. I’m especially sick of this Boehner phony.

  • Oh my gosh, why is it such a relief to hear someone say that so clear an directly? Phillip Dennis is my new hero.

  • Keith Olbermann Announces Abrupt Departure From MSNBC

    In reply to Cannon.

    Keith who?

  • How many inaccuracies in news stories does Lawrence O’Donnell get to report before his right to free press is taken away? Five? Ten? How many inaccuracies before Lawrence O’Donnell is locked up and silenced forever?

    The point is that our rights cannot be taken away because bad things happen. Someone blows up an airplane and we start infringing on our rights by searching passengers and wire tapping without warrants. I say, do all you can to stop people from blowing up air liners short of infringing on our rights. After that I morn and accept the loss of life and seek justice upon the perpetrator and then I let liberty and freedom ring.

  • @ABC

    Bachman citing a report by the CBO on actual spending is far different from Weiner citing the CBO on projected spending using bad assumptions and information given to them by one party. Do you understand ACTUAL vs ESTIMATE?

  • BETSY MORGAN, please make your first act as president to add a page index to the top of the comments section so we can jump between pages of comments. Also, instruct writers to prefer html5 video over flash where possible so I can watch them on my iPad. Thanks.
