From MSNBC: “Middle class” Mitt is trying to hide how rich he is. In last night’s show, MSNBC’s Ed blew Romney’s cover and revealed not only the extent of his personal wealth but also what his tax plan would do to the working poor in this country. Eugene Robinson, MSNBC Analyst and Associate Editor and Pulitzer Prize winning Columnist for the Washington Post helped Ed in dismantling the flip-flopping, double-dip somersaulting, rich liar.

Meantime, racist homophobic-misogynist Rick Santorum still can’t explain his comment about “black people.” Joan Walsh, Salon’s Editor at Large, and Michael Eric Dyson, Professor of Sociology at Georgetown university and author of “Can You Hear Me Now?,” joined Ed for that discussion.

Echoing the same issue, the other pile of racist hot-garbage, cockamamie presidential candidate, serial adulterer and serial-shyster Newton Leroy Gingrich — said Thursday he is willing to go before the NAACP and urge blacks to demand paychecks, not food stamps, thus emphasizing Santorum’s false racial stereotype that blacks are “welfare queens” feeding off “white money” [ READ MORE ]

Gingrich told a town hall meeting at a senior center in Plymouth, N.H., that if the NAACP invites him to its annual convention this year, he’d go there and talk about “why the African-American community should demand paychecks and not be satisfied with food stamps.” [ READ MORE ]

In the spring of 2011 Sarah Palin launched her “One Nation” bus tour; analysts warned that the former beauty queen was using the bus tour as a vehicle to keep her brand name alive. As it turned out we were spot on in our commentary, Palin who never had any intentions of running for president, finally announced on Oct 5, 2011 that she wasn’t seeking the Republican nomination for President.

Herman Cain’s book tour/presidential run came to an and on Dec 3, 2011, when a series of sex scandals forced him to resign.

Herman Cain isn’t a candidate anymore, but he’s launching a new bus tour anyway, ostensibly to promote his widely derided 9-9-9 economic plan. The disgraced former CEO of Godfather’s Pizza misses the spotlight, and his bus tour is a way of keeping his name in the news.

Sarah Palin’s bus tour was an overwhelming success from the perspective that she got what she was looking for: Media attention.

Herman Cain’s bus tour will be an abject failure, now that he’s no longer a candidate the press doesn’t care what he has to say about economics or anything else. The press is still fascinated by Palin, because she’s beautiful, charismatic and she always provides good copy with her bimbo statements. Cain is an ugly senior citizen who has been exposed as an adulterer and an ignoramus, the media will ignore him.

The Cain Solutions: Mr. 9-9-9 Herman Cain Returns To National Spotlight With a Fresh Set of Lies

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

“‘She is doing fine because since I got out of the race, we don’t have to constantly hear the spinning and the respinning of those false accusations.’From that standpoint, she is great. And she is very supportive of this national movement that I’m going to be launching later this week in order to keep attention on what’s really important in this.’” — Herman Cain

Erstwhile presidential candidate Herman Cain refuses to leave the spotlight. The disgraced CEO of Godfather’s Pizza made this statement on on The Early Show, this morning. On the morning of the Iowa Caucuses, the American public wants to hear from the candidates who are still in the race, not from one who exited the race in abject humiliation. Herman Cain’s new more humble goal is to become a political commentator on TV, and I’m sure he will eventually land a gig on the Fox News channel. Cain doesn’t know anything about politics or anything else for that matter, but if Fox hired Sarah Palin, they will hire anybody.

In preparation for his new role as a political analyst Cain is trying to repair his reputation by pretending to care about his wife. Let’s get real, as a businessman and as a presidential candidate, Cain rarely saw his dear wife. Cain cares about her as much as I care about the gopher who is tearing up my front lawn.

Maybe a miracle will occur and Fox News will exercise a little bit of responsibility to their viewers by not offering him a job.

Cain’s fifteen minutes of fame is history, we don’t care about his ‘national movement’, or his views on politics. The only TV option that should be open to the randy minister is a reality show based on how he juggles his lovers.

“Sarah Palin, it seems, finds the Obama family Christmas card featuring First Dog Bo something less than appropriate.

The former governor of Alaska told Fox News that she found it ‘odd‘ that the card featured the dog rather than the cores of the holiday: ‘family, faith and freedom.’” — BaltimoreSun.Com

   As Seen on Fox (Fixed) News’ Website

The White House has already released an Obama Christmas card featuring the President, his wife and his beautiful daughters. That was the perfect holiday card, there was nary a Christmas tree or a manger scene to offend anyone.

This new card may be even better than the first, it depicts non-religious generic holiday decorations, and most importantly it features the most popular resident of the White house, First Dog Bo.

Sarah Palin must be desperate for attention, if she can’t think of anything more important to complain about than the White House Christmas card.

Bo represents freedom, loyalty and love, only a Grinch would find fault with those values.

Topping the list in 2011 is Rupert Murdoch’s corrupt Fox News a.k.a “Fixed News” a.k.a “Fake News.” Fox News Channel wraps itself in slogans of journalistic objectivity like “fair and balanced” and “we report, you decide,” but ample evidence conclusively indicate a race-baiting, terroristic, fraudulent right-wing tilt in the network’s ‘news.‘ Fox is NOT news, it’s a racist, bigoted and biased Republican political operation.

Fox & Friends: Fox News’ Top Misinformer Of 2011 — Fox News’ Fox & Friends made considerable contributions to the field of conservative of misinformation throughout 2011.

Next is Dr. Keith Ablow, Fox New’s favorite doc — who has been named “Misinformer Of The Year On LGBT Issues” — In 2011 Fox News’ Dr. Keith Ablow brought a toxic mix of homophobia and pseudo scientific anti-LGBT talking points to new lows. The “Fox News Medical A-Team” member has been a prolific source of anti-LGBT misinformation, disguising his animosity toward gay, lesbian and transgender people as expert commentary on human sexuality. His bigoted rants against J. Crew, Dancing with the Stars, and the Girl Scouts have earned widespread criticism and mockery, eventually causing him to resign from the American Psychiatric Association. For his consistent promotion of known falsehoods and shirking of established medical opinions on LGBT issues, Ablow has earned the title of LGBT Misinformer of the Year. [ READ MORE ]
