Worst Person

Chris Matthews believes the wingnuts on the end-of-life consultations.

MATTHEWS: Why are you going to be visited every five years by somebody to talk about how you want to die. I think it's crazy this is in there...

Visited? Whah?

When I was 36, my wife and I paid an attorney to assemble a living will and trust for each of us. We're both three decades away from retirement age, but we did it anyway because -- as you might've read in the news -- younger people die every day.

"I think its crazy this is in there..."

...accept its not in there.


Trying to drum up a controversy over making it easier to create a will is just desperation in trying to find something, anything, to react over.

Bob,

Have you revisited your attorney in the last few years to make sure your will and trust were up to date? That should occur with every life-changing event (child birth, new business, tragedy, etc), and periodically (say...every five years) you should review your wishes to make certain they still reflect your values and goals.

Does Tweety have an email address??!

Yep - I caught this when it aired yesterday. Good ol' Tweety. Just when I think he's finally got his head on straight, he makes a false move, that critical internal plug comes unseated, and all sorts of crap starts spewing out, along with the requisite amount of spittle.

I saw this and thought the same thing. What the hell is he talking about? I also read on article on media matters yesterday which slammed Matthews for his bullshit comments on the Obama, Gates, Crowley issue. He actually said that Obama said that this was a case of racial profiling and they had a video clip he showed of Obama's remarks at the press conference but, he left the part where Obama said he didn't know if this was a case of racial profiling on the cutting room floor. What an ass. I thought he was scraping the bottom of the barrel when he brought that over medicated loon G. Gordon Liddy on to talk about the birthers. Matthews has lost his fucking mind and the entire daytime lineup on MSNBC is unwatchable, especially that fucking tool Joe "Jethro" Scarborough. I'd like to euthanize the entire Republican party and their racists supporters. Death to all idiots!

You've all got it wrong. Matthews is 100% correct. There is indeed a provision in the House bill that requires every U.S. citizen over the age of 65 to register with soemthing called the "National Registry of Surplus Americans." Once registered, senior citizens will be contacted with more details on the quintennial in-home review process.

I read all about this on that website that revealed that President Obama was actually born in Kenya, and fathered by a socialist space alien from beyond the Moon. Wake up, America!

Tweety is very good at reminding me that he is a clueless git. I wanted to slap him silly when he said that. Maybe I can pay Mike Pence to fist him.

Now you've done it Nanotyrannus, forevermore it shall be Mike "wristwatch crisco" Pence.

I fault our MSM more than I do the right wing--because they are essentially allowing the right wing to kick up dust and muddy the waters of TRUTH.

As long as the right wing echo chamber is allowed to use the "liberal" media to kick up dust and obscure the TRUTH, we will never get thios country OUT OF THE DITCH THAT BUSH and THE REPUBLICANS GOT US INTO.

If the Dems drove the country into a ditch, teh MSM would essentially count thme out of the discussion--whereas when the Republicans do it, it grants them a license to CONTROL the discussion with LIES.
