  MSNBC host Lawrence O'Donnell decried the upper chamber of Congress as "anti-democratic" during his appearance Thursday on "The ReidOut." Host Joy Reid led to the topic of the Senate by discussing whether the United States is "governable" as a country based on "a system designed by European men who certainly never envisioned racial and gender equality or the kind of diversity that we have today or that anyone not like them would share power in this country."
  Time to Log Off is a weekly series documenting the many ways our political figures show their whole asses online. On Thursday morning, the San Francisco Chronicle published a lengthy investigation into longtime California Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein, alleging that a number of her colleagues have growing concerns about the 88-year-old's mental competency. The details of the report, salacious as they are, aren't all that important; Feinstein has been dogged by rumors of serious cognitive decline for years now. But the fact that the Chronicle spoke with, by their own account, "four U.S. senators, including three Democrats, as well as three former Feinstein staffers" and a "California Democratic member of Congress" has pushed the issue of Feinstein's age and mental acuity back into the limelight in a big way.
  California Sen. Dianne Feinstein, facing reports of diminished mental facilities that have grown so pronounced that a member of Congress said they needed to reintroduce themselves to her multiple times during a conversation, may have found a defender in MSNBC prime time host Lawrence O'Donnell, who later insisted that he was not, in fact, defending her.
