This week, before Thanksgiving, the Organizing for America twitter account – the official Barack Obama twitter account – asked Americans to talk about Obamacare and spread the holiday talking points on Turkey Day:
MSNBC’s primetime hosts leapt to comply. On Wednesday, Ed Schultz, Al Sharpton, and Chris Hayes all dedicated their entire shows to telling Americans how to talk with conservative relatives during Thanksgiving. Schultz had on comedian John Fugelsang, who blabbed about “your, uh, Obamacare-hating uncle…your NRA uncle…your gay for Reagan uncle…your uncle who uses Benghazi as a verb.” Sharpton then gave his own talking points for the “aunt or uncle who watches Fox News all day.” Chris Hayes also chipped in.
When the Obama campaign says to jump, MSNBC’s only question is how high.
