'Republicans Are 'Foot-Dragging, Knuckle-Dragging Neanderthals'
Rachel was really good last night, and is really good in this segment. Questioning Grayson's rhetorical excesses but putting them into the context of republican screaming and giving him a chance to say why he did it: "People want Democrats with Guts" Good stuff.
Republicans shocked by own tactic Rep. Alan Grayson, D-FL, joins Rachel Maddow to talk about his tongue-in-cheek criticism of Congressional Republicans for failing to produce a health care reform plan.

Elections have consequences BITCHES!
You probably remember how earlier this month Newt Gingrich somehow managed to have his 527 Group award its "Entrepreneur of the Year" award to porn exec Allison Vivas and invite her to an "intimate event" with Newt himself. Vivas was game. But Gingrich's group soon rescinded the award.
Today we learned there's been another misunderstanding. Gingrich's outfit, American Solutions for Winning the Future, gave a new "Entrepreneur of the Year" award to Dawn Rizos, owner of The Lodge, which the Dallas Morning News calls "one of the best-known gentlemen's clubs in Dallas."
Alas, again, the offer has been rescinded. But TPM's Ben Frumin got a chance to talk to Rizos to get her take on getting the Newt jilt.

Sorry for stepping on the open thread, but I agree 100%:With Democrats like these. Rachel Maddow is joined by Huffington Post political reporter Sam Stein to talk about the few members of Congress who call themselves Democrats even though they're clearly working at cross purposes to Democratic Party ideals, goals and voters.
I think our society has become a bit hysterical about teen sexuality, and that age limits and punishments for statutory rape have, in some states, started to get a bit exteme even if such relationships are inappropriate. But the undisputed facts of this case are that she was given booze and drugs and raped. There may be other procedural legal issues as I said, but I really can’t believe people are minimizing what happened. What is wrong with these people?I was talking to my mom and dad this morning, and we don’t agree on damned near anything regarding politics anymore (mom seems to think that Bob Dole is still what most Republicans are like), and told them I can not believe everyone apologizing for Polanski. They couldn’t either, and it really is kind of insane.
One of you all remarked in the comments the other day that Polanski is the upper-class OJ Simpson. I think that makes sense.
