		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;See here.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Thanks, although I&#039;m almost sorry I asked.

 I know this is a bit off topic, but I saw a completely trivializing television portrayal of a woman with breast cancer (&quot;Why I wore lipstick to my masectomy&quot; on Lifetime), where a doctor seemed overly concerned with her not losing her &quot;beautiful&quot; breasts. Later, her husband&#039;s satisfaction with her potential implants seemed to take focus over her health. 

I assumed health professionals and husbands/partners of women with breast cancer would be more concerned with her health and survival, rather than the aesthetics of her body. 

In addition to feeling naive in thinking that no one would seriously pose this question, with a woman who has breast cancer sitting right in front of them, I&#039;m embarrassed to be lumped in a profession with asses such as Larry King and Chris Mathews.

		<description> I would have seen it as an attempt to be ironic if Matthews had made the quip and then backtracked, explaining he doesn&#039;t really agree with that. But he didn&#039;t, he kept on in complete oblivion apparently of his blatent assininity.  Fox News is such a waste of time and people actually pay money every month to watch that crap (cable teevee).

I can&#039;t believe it.

and I always knew Larry King was an ass, but that takes the cake, thanks for the link zuzu.</description>

		<description>I think Matthews was trying to be ironic.

But I don&#039;t know how the guy has the nerve to show his face on camera, or anywhere else, after it was revealed that he takes huge &quot;speaking fees&quot; from advocacy groups like the National Venture Capital Association. NBC should shove a hardball up his pudgy ass.</description>

		<description>John was the first sign of a rising populism in reaction to the crony-capitalist bent of this administration.  He&#039;s not as progressive outside of distributional issues as I would like; but he really believes in a government that ensures that the economic system is fair to working people.  See also Heath Schuler and many of the incoming Democratic legislators.  The gilded-age redistribution of wealth, which will become all the more apparent at the housing bubble deflates and ordinary people find themselves in foreclosure and without bankruptcy protection, will provoke a strong backlash.

		<description>I&#039;d vote for Elizabeth.  She&#039;s a great lady, and the people of NC have already proven that they&#039;ll elect a woman (even if she&#039;s a useless, carpetbagging Republican.)</description>
