Madow has always had a flimsy relationship with the truth. She has also always tried to force her views on the people she interviews instead of listening to their views. Her stance in support of affirmative action and the “wise latina” is proof that she likes to speak out of her ass instead of listen to what her guests (which are much more experienced then she will ever be) have to say.

I’m certain she’s taken the SEIU to task for sending its purple-shirted lackeys to various town halls and rallies across the contry.

Or trucking in it’s purple-shirted lackeys…

See now, I’ve spotted your mistake right in the entry title: “Holding Democrats to…Standards”.

If Democrats even recognized the concept of objective “Standards” that they could be held to, or accepted the concept that they could be held to the same standards they hold others to… maybe the country wouldn’t be in this hellbound basket.

You’ll be “pleased” to know that the Human Rights Campaign is among the groups allied with “Health Care for America Now”. In fact, the list of liberal professional activism groups is…er, “impressive”:
