nonetheless here are silliness from our washington d_c_ i presume coffers media
matters the website is
your matters dot org
you know it's one of the best lead sites a
help their because essentially a bill o'reilly refers to you guys as fast
for animal that
you get that are advertising the that anyway wouldn't matters
draws for those who don't know i know anybody who watches the show probably
does knows
if that jack you may call
the right vanities the limbaugh's
the backs and many others
uh...
all they are reducing some of these saying what's significant about that and
we have to remember
is that for twenty years and actively for ten
nobody call them on anything
nameplate enormous roland framing the debate
in this country they still on the right place enormous roared framing the debate
that media matters part of the pushed back a big part of the professionalized
they project
we
uh... indians before
dead you know that the irony is that and the badges ted kennedy
is a public figure in a politician
i'm not really outraged or offended by anything anyone says about it because i
think that's a waste of time and i
guarantee you it didn't bother ted kennedy what people said about him uh...
so i don't think we should really go to college
if the government raised money off of his name and vendor
returned home and make work on the depletion together
right so there is a rediculous agnes exactly right
and so were you ted kennedy
has his way and they should raise the money
you go back over the guy said he had fled but we need to get stuff done
kentucky soap ought to be that's how it works so uh...
but republicans are
an outrage
at democrats
for exploiting
uh... ted kennedy's name in trying to sort of work for a health care reform is
that
v that was a appropriate
i didn't know they were too many
poppin kettle in the republican uh... in the conservative movement simpson
they've been storming capitol camelot
frequently
yet what are some of the most egregious the examples and i thought about that
mike huckabee earlier
earlier in the show but there are obviously a
yeah we've got you don't rush limbaugh saying that uh... see i told you know
they're going to be perfect
picture of the memorial
health care bill of course he said that right after kitty was announced
for the cancer
didn't rush limbaugh bragged about that
question correctly predicting kennedy's death
would basically ah...
um...
no need to get a lot for referred you know if the prize but the constitution
filled doctor after
fifty to fifty two years of katydid
tho
you not fifty two years right
um...
and works and then you've got uh... like they were before you get off of the
limbaugh let's we
let's hear from rush limbaugh's we have
one of these clips of about talking about kelly were limbaugh breaks down
filling with ted kennedy did in the senate rush limbaugh manages to sum it
up in a sense what's your number four hero
jr here is a rush limbaugh
discussing budget
and i'm wondering
about senator kennedy's widow
and senator kennedy have been out of the people
senator kennedy who was beloved for one reason folks
use the government to take money from people that work
to give it the people don't work and that was just checked that got him
out of any serious judgment on the any bad behavior his personal life
if it works for all liberals it is their redemption
all you do is make a big play you use government to take money away from
people who work in order to get the people of god and you are compassionate
view are tearing and you are virtues
and then you can go or no
brasserie in washington d buddy chris darden start having with the sandwiches
i had a couple of things there first of all the way through sandwich
sounds awesome
february yet putting so
dealt with him but it did
agrees that little brother everyone
evaluators their wishes
uh... cytological waitress ever worked with uh...
it creating mandate contracted with the world are here certainly strength bob
but still unless you can sort of uh...
break at that katydid out as simply as he takes money from people work
gives way to people who don't
but so what else is that they still a little girl you have that every
hero we've we've when they were pretty good celebrated hoping seventy four
different
uh... i a lot of media conservatives like *** glory ingram
uh... were basically saying you know
democrat for you've thankful that they can push health care through
amid birthday but they were to use the deaf card and right now
republican talking points of come down to death
and the words that follow
right no essentially because i uh...
the annie this point in the last segment and here as well
do you think this as any
validity karol advert we're talking a crop fresher media matters for american
website at www really fantastic website world is information news media matters
dot org
let's suppose that uh... uh... tragic as it would have been that uh... of martin
luther king workers as they did not
in april of nineteen fifty-eight but in nineteen sixty four before the passage
of the civil rights act
exactly these guys are arguing warren grumman's and and and and mike huckabee
who said that today
you know um... who suggested again that uh... that it's wrong for democrats to
sort of invoke kennedy's name in exploit his death
that help
drum up support for the cause the kennedy considered most dear to his
entire public life
spot so let's suggest that
that martin luther king were killed in nineteen sixty four bd four batch of the
civil rights act
but he does suggesting that it would have been wrong for people to say
hey we should pass this and martin luther king today
it's good putting it to me
in those terms reminds you of what a ridiculous argument this is yeah
it often
along
that we have to care about win one for the gipper
we have right course um so it's a pretty good but i would call the dep right
yep expected
um but you know and i had to convert the how much they've been using
uh... ted kennedy to go after
to attack healthcare by you know that what do you guys don't like
you know uh... ted kennedy were still here we'd be able to reach compromise
get and done
people like john mccain but that people are going to have you know let's say six
troubled his i'd i'll i thought that i was impressed by that
live from the kidnapping sunday that was before ted kennedy died
and i thought all of us because it was incredibly complimentary about what he
can do what he can offer
you think that there was a degree of of i don't know exploitation or
manipulation of the blood
except in the committee
techtarget shared
and be kennedy health care bill
perfect committee without a single republican vote
uh... i
you know uh... i think it
a bit disingenuous
to say that ted kennedy been there if they would uh...
they'd have company that it is the most effective
syphilis people republican talking points
you'll hear from every part of the phone
cable mightn't build on cable last night
him
fact of the matter is
when your stuff
from you know republican to the gate of victim of the republicans
where there is no budget they don't just don't want the public option they don't
want
of the republic of china kicked of executive orders
they don't want to co-op
they don't want health care reform
um... period inas so that we're going to be here and you know
john walsh from for dot com pointed out that you know there's absolutely no
evidence to support support it
uh... you know how you would have required for the washington post the
pointed out that
barely had an opportunity work with ted kennedy in the bill was reported out of
committee and it was a progressive one of that
apples
to those totally valid points you mentioned the use of the word death and
another worked the best of their the republican game plan at scarborough town
entered a new one
properties
uh... and they are
seeing my dog you by obama
could stop o to kill the blind in the cockpit saving effort to reduce the cost
of the at the uh... american with disabilities act you know that's
actually is a good point because it's also by the way i know i i don't know
he's in pointed this out about the death of his assaults all this when i read it
that will also save money on food for those jobs
recurrent
uh... so
i wonder whether another talking points emerging again getting back to what mike
huckabee said thursday on his radio show the thought of your report
you know he says that uh... he suggests are as radio show that under president
obama's health care plan kennedy
it would have been told to quote
go home to take pain pills and i
so heavy yeah i grade the resilient with senator jennings diagnose trouble brain
cancer seventy seven to give up on life and go home to take pain pills and died
of course he did
the that already struck me since he said it's twice
that that all that is another suggestion that you know he death penalty moved on
the death penalty bill if you had a death penalty
essentially
if you have a serious illness and you're all
old quizzes all of us caring all people
robot is that you have a serious illness the role that your doctor will say that
takes three new print
and go dot
if reqd
uh... because that's how it always dont religious and and who wins put that in
health care bill
right at the public product separate yall however a political issue
you know it over one of two thousand radio show
tommorrow we've got something for god
uh... basically for the same thing saying that uh...
under public option a bureaucrat would have hoped that uh... committee
uh... your seventy-five and bring to above a high
yeah aberrant i read that in some bars yes that sounds like that's again with a
suggesting in
do we know where they're getting that or is that again justin creation that they
know recreation and what we are
where no medicare part b_ which passed
by the fed up with forty-two public and vote
it included some coverage uh... and the wife conflict
you know re we feel it's with the death penalty error
tweaking the with the
dept book bs which apparently
gift of your paper cut
to jet
both covering their painful bleeding out death over the course forty years about
took back which are in
what they meant by death book
but ultimately
these abit like applications are designed for
really by the way things already happened
if the question of whether or not
uh...
insurance appointee
uh... i have to cover it
um...
their deadline for the parents don't have to put their children the awful
situation of deciding what happened at the end of life
further parent
um... and you know indicate the
dept book quote unquote
uh... the first option with it
you've always dating measures possible
though i don't know how that actually killed somebody
melbourne isn't sad
the problem is
this is that is the it's not enough to simply suggest that when tom barr says
no seven
under the old there'll be a bureaucrat
at your sevis send your brain tumor so long
and that when mike huckabee said
students a two advil go home and i that's it tears of pain pills coma dot
all the republicans want out of this
someone is is to plant the seed
but you know that that's not right it doesn't make any difference in nobody
could
you know they want us to waste our time which is actually we have to do now
the disprove it
and because then all they want to do is people who don't pay enough attention to
say i don't know manicured is going to be a deft handling might not be may not
cover when you can get really sticking your older they just make a dirty angels
i don't know so you-know-what i'm a little scared
let's just do not
to get what they want
loudon it couldn't be more disingenuous
you know i do feel that
for the most part they know that
the stuffed in there may be fair pellet in the shop a lot to do it now
but uh... it you know i i think for the most part b
the politicians are a bit more happy than that
there goes a fool
and uh...
uh... to failsafe philip
um...
and uh...
if the responsibility of
people that care about
uh... issues like health care reform or any issue for that we always say
whatever the most important issue appeal
make sure the media's your necklace important issue because how they talk
about that issue
will define what happens with that issue
and deserted you see
ease you know i i i realize that the job you guys have is to find out what ah...
rush limbaugh and bill o'reilly and there is a videotape
you see ineffective of wish that
aaye
the death penalty specifically in work you know we we spent it at the time look
at the liberal media but we're monitoring the mainstream media as well
to make sure that permissive mission to get in there
and you know that the traditional media have
the death penalty
more than forty times
so hopefully
um... for the people that can be convinced would prevented with proper
evidence
but the death penalty development they're getting that message
they have a crop of people that will never be convinced sure of course um...
you know that the people but it did to the bush administration with the
twenty-fifth perceptive
so far they did a fine job but you never you're right we have released them on
this any way shape or form right you know they're more concerned about
walking off the edge of the planet
him
licensor concern
uh... what it meant to be audible flat never heard bob
you know uh... but what what worries me
again this is not a and it's uh... i'm glad you pointed out the degree to which
you guys back check the mainstream media because for for the right wing media
wants is for their is further doubts the bleed into the
mainstream media
and then the seed is planted
so obviously you guys got to check that but of course what it what what this
still creates is a scenario where
they drive the debate and the health care debate becomes
a debate not about whether we have a right coverage whether everybody whether
that is in inalienable right
whether we're discriminating against people who don't have health care it
becomes a debate about whether there are deaf havells
and i don't think that we have a lot
one thing that we talked about it really matters was
uh... it would not just enough to for the main street crook fact checked the
quite
not only that they have to do it all
but they should also point out what the status quo clearly is because
there is a form of death penalty there for the call the perfect health
insurance provider right everyday aperture company they're deciding clara
uh... you know with your doctor project treatment rap for treatment whether not
you're going to get that treatment and people died revolt venture companies
right now
or deciding to do come up a report on a patient to make sure but you note if
they've ever pot who lied in their application for their paperwork to find
the previous inhibition to terminate coverage
defected every day it happened because we're looking up to the bottom line to
make money
um...
that should also be part of the conversation
uh... you know in order to have a conversation about what
the government may have been doing we hit the potential part of the
conversation talk about
what currently with well car all up fresh from a media matters dot org
couldn't agree with you more my fear still and this is not a fear that
benefited through again and we're still end up having the conversations that
they want to say
having said guide you guys are doing what you're doing and and and and that
the young turks is here but
again it is a conversation largely continuously dictated
by guys like rush limbaugh but we have a chronic to do the conversation it way
towards right but god forbid government so we want to be meanwhile remain
