One of the reasons I loved watching Keith Olbermann was because he expressed the same outrage I felt about George Bush and the rest of the wealthy and privileged who run Washington. It felt good, but sometimes it hit overload with me...too much anger, too much fury. The best antidote, I found was Bill Maher. Bill expressed the same outrage, but he couched it in humor and it is much easier on the stomach.
Therefore I highly recommend this clip from Maher. This Daily Kos post also includes the transcript, which I just might frame! Sample:
The facts about what the Republicans have done to the middle class are beyond reasonable doubt. And yet their base refuses to see it. The moneyed elite in America are dragging a bag filled with your future down the steps, and your reaction is, "Hold on there, that looks heavy. Let me give you a hand getting it into your trunk."
