I can’t embed this but, Jane Hamsher is GREAT in this MSNBC clip.

I wish I could watch it but I’m still so disgusted with FDL with all of the Hillary hate going on at their site. I’m pretty sure that Jane and RedHead weren’t big Obama fans but they caved under the pressure to maintain access.
Yes, I’m still bitter.
I know she let us down but, you really should listen to this. At the end Jane says that Health Care for Everyone is a human right and the woman sneers and says, “I suppose you think FOOD is a human right too?”
Shocking.
Jane did a beautiful job of putting her in her place. That was one of those incredible comments that was so over-the-top stupid, I’m going to laugh everytime I think of it.
