Best. TV. EVER! Lawrence O'Donnell takes down TX GOP Rep. Culberson.

O'Donnell tore into Rep. John Culberson (R-TX) on Hardball. Culbertson cannot answer the question as to whether he would have voted for Medicare because it's a socialistic program. This is amazing watching him dodge the question and then admit that he would have voted for Medicare in 1965. Even though he won't simply, as O'Donnell puts it, delete the "65" provision and make it available to everyone.

Rather than admitting to obvious hypocrisy, he goes after MSNBC's ratings, as if this has anything to do with the question of socialism or Culberson's self-contradictions.
