Tancredo's exit ran the issue off the rails. In fairness to Moulitsas, it sounded to me like he was quite prepared to do that. Tancredo’s exit ran the issue off the rails.

Too often those who defend our side of the spectrum, like Ed Schultz, are shallow.

There are few people more deserving of genuine hatred in modern politics than Tom Tancredo... but this didn't sit well with me either. What I found the most annoying is that the video was posted all over liberal blogs, and not a one of them mentioned why Tancredo stormed off - they deliberately made it look as though he was pissed that Markos was so full of factual information about the health care debate, and not because he personally insulted Tancredo. Anyways, it was still kind of fun to watch, but I don't like the blogs I like falling into the bullshit machine of telling the most politically convenient tale at the expense of thet truth.
