Today's TRMS
Today's show will feature a very special reading from Winnie the Pooh that relates to foreign policy (you'll have to listen to find out how) and the Rachel Maddow Show debut of a video made by Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) that professes his, um, largeness.
Rachel's guests today are David Bender, host of Air America's Sunday show Politically Direct, and Paul Rieckhoff, executive director of Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America.

McCain vs. Obama legislation
Nice job on MSNBC today Rachel.
What I'd like to know, and I couldn't find this information, is how many pieces of bi-partisan legislation has McCain passed versus Obama over their entire careers? It's all well and good that McCain "has a record of bi-partisanship" but if over his career 10% of the legislation he's passed was bi-partisan and Obama's percentage is 20% then the whole argument is moot and Obama wins it. I'd love to hear some actual facts rather than "McCain's record is proven" or "Obama's bipartisanship was EASY".
