Cenk hosting today. More fallout from the Melissa Harris Perry segment where they mocked the Romney family holiday photo. Video of the original segment and Mitt Romney reacting to the debacle on Fox News Sunday where Chris Wallace wouldn’t let it go. Video of MHP’s tearful apology. Liz Cheney has decided to end her campaign in Wyoming, citing family health issues. Cenk is calling b/s since every politician that has ever suddenly resigned uses family health issues as the excuse. In reality, she was being beaten handily in the polls, and didn’t want to be embarrassed with a beating in the election. King Con segment: Rep Peter King’s anger and ranting over Rand Paul challenging the NSA, and how Obama is allowing him to do so. He went so far to say that Paul doesn’t belong in the Senate and that Congressmen should be monitored the same way that other American citizens are spied upon.
Congress is debating over tax breaks and tax loopholes for the rich and corporations, which they always extend. The Atlantic did a piece on how Conservative strategist Frank Luntz fell into a depression after his schemes didn’t work since Obama won reelection in 2012. It talked about how he fell apart and scrambled back to his mansion in L.A. where he didn’t leave for 3 days. Steve Stockman’s attempts to challenge John Cornyn in Texas are comical, according to the polls. In response, he faked 7 endorsements to his campaign on his website. One of these entities is the NRA, and they embarrassed him with their rebuke.
George Will responded to the possibility that Bill DeBlasio’s election is the sign of a liberal onslaught by saying his policies will make people so sick that they will be yearning for Republicans within 3 years. Flashback to Will predicting that Romney would win really big over President Obama in 2012. Video of Cokie Roberts claiming that only 20% of Americans identify as Liberals in America, so that this DeBlasio win means nothing.
