Friday Morning Open Thread

John and Joe are in Vegas so Paris is kicking off the East Coast morning today. As soon as the wifi situation improves for them I'm sure we will be hearing some interesting updates.

One of the big stories emerging today will be whether Shirley Sherrod will file a lawsuit against Breitbart. The right wing noise machine delivered another hatchet job to a very decent person. It was sickening to watch how they distorted the real story, which was a story everyone should hear and learn from. Shep Smith from Fox even talked about the story and why his program on Fox did not run with the story. If only the rest of Fox used the same level of common sense.

Heck, if only Team Change had used some common sense. We expect people on the extreme right to behave this way but not fellow Democrats. Remember when this team used to inspire and excite people? Now they either bore you to tears or alienate friends.

So what else is happening this morning?
