Thankfully most of it has been critical of Rush, as it should be.

In this clip ESPN's Mike Wilbon refuses to take back or apologize for any of his blunt criticism of Rush. (H/t Crooks and Liars.) Often pundits tend to backtrack or attempt to soften what they have said when confronted by a talk show host, but not so with Wilbon.

He stands his ground and stands by every single word he has said about Rush.

There is an enormous loophole when it comes to the sale of gun laws, one that allows sellers at gun shows to sell guns without doing a background check. This compelling video shows with horrifying clarity why that loophole needs to be shut down.

Who would have thought it would be a host from Fox Noise that would present one of the most forceful arguments in favor of the public option in the entire traditional media.

It almost pains me to say it, but hats off to Shep Smith of Fox.

While his ratings are huge, he reportedly has lost almost 50% of the advertisers on his show, who increasingly want to distance themselves from someone so filled with anger and delusion.

How does he sleep at night?

He was right about the automobile industry being in a mess.

He was right about the Iraq war being a total sham based on lies.

He was right about how screwed up America's healthcare system.

And here he is, right yet again, on how the newspaper industry slit its own throat.

Two things: 1) hats off to Kimmel; 2) can the progressive left not come up with a million person march to show the country and the world where the sane people in America stand on this issue? 

We should be ashamed of ourselves that he had to do that all by himself.
