Maddow's guest, David Weidner from Marketwatch said the IL-10 representative was "not our nation's best Captain Kirk." I could have told him that years ago. Maddow didn't have time to go into it, but it's worth noting (again) that our debt to China was caused by all those Bush war budgets based on intentionally low numbers cooked into the books as part of the war sales pitch. Kirk not only supported that war and each deficit budget in which it resulted, but intentionally lied on the house floor and to his own district to make that war happen. He told us he was in a special position to know, and that he had personal knowledge that there were WMD in Iraq.

I warned Mark years ago that in Star Trek the bad guy usually gets caught in the end because of his own arrogance. You'd think a Kirk, of all people, would watch at least a little Star Trek.

Finally, Mark gets the national attention he deserves.
