Is anyone else here a liberal or progressive but not vehemently anti-gun ownership?

I hate when people label Olbermann as the "Bill O'Reilly of the Left". This is false. Bill O'Reilly lies, invokes anger and violence, and offers no truth to the words he speaks. Olbermann calls Bill out on his bullshit, providing evidence and facts (something foreign to FOX) to back his words.

If a public option would drive private health insurance out of business, how do UPS and Fedex survive against the USPS?

Mr. President, those people are wrong. You cannot bargain with mountaintop removal, any more than you can make a deal with a disease. Mountaintop removal mining is unsupportable -- and unconscionable. It's not needed to meet America's energy needs. It's not needed to provide jobs in Appalachia.

Without blushing, Sen. Mitch McConnell keeps saying "America has the finest health care system in the world." Tell that to the 22,000 Americans who die every year because they don't have insurance.
