A Crazy Week of Politics
Last night, I watched an interesting special comment by Keith Olbermann on the problems with the new health care reform bill.
Then today I heard Bill Clinton come out and support it.
Angry progressives are voicing their ire with Joseph Lieberman, including one man who threatens to organize a boycott of pro-Lieberman businesses in Connecticut.
MoveOn has reportedly raised over $1 million against Lieberman in under 48 hours.
Albeit finals week at ND, it's been interesting in the world of politics, from Copenhagen to Washington.
Finally, here is Olbermann's special comment, for your viewing pleasure:

Stop Joe Lieberman.

Today I watched the news and was absolutely disgusted to find that
Sen. Joe Lieberman may be shutting down progressive health care reform
by himself! I have opposed the filibuster rule in the Senate for
quite some time, even though Sen. Harkin is raising that issue again
it will not be able to get passed in time to help us pass health care
reform.
Lets make our democracy work by putting pressure on Lieberman. How do
you put pressure on a politician? You make them look bad to their
constituents. Progressive Change Campaign Committee is an up and
coming organization that is widely being recognized as a liberal
megaphone in our political system. They have a great ad targeting
Sen. Joe Lieberman they want to air in Connecticut and are asking 3
dollars from health reform supporters like us to help them air it.
