Rachel Maddow explains the "trash and grab" strategy of the Republican party. "Trash and grab" is the term that has been coined to describe the Republican habit of trashing the stimulus then taking credit for funds coming into their district. Mike Castle comes about 6:00 into the clip, and oh yeah, there's a picture of Castle with a giant check.

Now, our doctors in this country are well trained and heroic. But they also make mistakes. Indeed, if a doctor at the BETHESDA NAVAL STATION can make a mistake DURING A SURGERY ON A PREEMIMENT CONGRESSMAN, what are the chances that doctors across the land make mistakes of this magnitude every day on regular people like you and me?

Late Night Video — Rahm Emmanuel Apologizes

The SNL version of Rahm Emmanue apologies, that is. This is likely NSFW, but strikes me as old school SNL -- taking a famous person's weaknesses, making them funny and using that the comment on a bigger picture. There is likely no chance that they could maintain this sharpness as a regular feature, but I liked this.
