      So informative for a news outlet to mask the lies it tell its consumers with a question mark.

      Barrasso: "I think the American people have sent a message..."

      Yes, they did. November, 2008. Quit whining and start working.

      Gotta love that chyron in the screencap: "CRITICS SLAM WH HEALTH CARE SUMMIT AS DEM "PHOTO-OP"

      The President is having lawmakers from both sides discuss legislation on an important national issue.

      Explain to me how that constitutes a "photo-op" as opposed to, say, this:
