The Tears of Clowns (A bummed MSNBC)

I’m starting to think that MSNBC’s audience is made up of MSNBC employees, who then go on-air and talk about what they’ve just seen.

"....Obama and his PROPOSED first lady....????"

Is Chrissie talking about Biden???

Everytime I see that scumbag Olbermann on a Football broadcast I change the channel until he’s gone.

"But there would be no sharing in the Republican delegates’ joy over Palin’s speech for Mitchell. Instead, after her interview with Rudy was over (sample question: “And you don’t think she’s vulnerable on the size and scale of her executive experience and the brevity of her political experience?”), she stared dead-eyed into the camera and said, “The war has begun.”

I can testify to this. Immediately after this interview my phone rang and it was a good friend of mine who asked me if he was imagining it or was Mitchell about to start crying during her interview with Giuliani? Palin has stunned the liberals and you can expect them to double down on their vicious attacks on her. However as seen by everyone, this woman is anything but a shrinking Violet and in fact seems to actually grow in the face of the attacks on her.

On CNN, a visibly shaken and speechless Wolf Blitzer suddenly developed a craving for country music and requested an immediate camera with audio cut to the band playing on stage saying “let’s listen to this country music... this is some we haven’t heard.” I figured he needed time to get over the shock and get his new talking points from DNC as Palin’s homerun changed the previously dictated script. I haven’t seen him so near the verge of tears since Bush got the winning electoral votes for the 2nd term.

“the newest addition to MSNBC’s prime-time line-up, Air America radio host Rachel Maddow,”

..... I suppose we can next expect Bill Ayers to get hired as a color commentator.

This householding watched on CSPAN.

Chrissie wants to have B. Hussein’s baby.

Condescension is an interesting word. Here’s a woman who was belittled for being a small-town mayor by a guy who described small-town people as clinging to their guns and religion because they’re bitter. And yet, when she hits him back, she’s the condescending one.

Good point - after belittling Saracuda's position as Mayor and even mispronouncing it so the end sounded "silly", Obama and his campaign have the gall to bitch about her explaining that a Mayor differs from an "organizer" in that a Mayor has responsibilities, because that "demeans Barry's work in the community".

Not even See B.S. could contain the damage Sarah Palin did to the good ship make believe. They have it flat even at 42 which means 16 undecideds. The undecideds aren’t. Most of them are probably bradley effect voters.

[Misschuck]

I liked Brit Hume. After reading a canned response from the Obama campaign, he looked at the camera and said well maybe they’ll have something more original to say after they have had time to think about it.

I have written NBC and told them about. Oberman and Sunday Football.

I won't watch pre-game or half time show until he is off the show it's called choice.

Yup! Real warriors rise up when the battle gets hot.

[Carley]

I watched Matthews on TV yesterday. He said nothing but nice things about Sarah and got in a few jabs at Olberman.

He also stated that he believed she could be President one day.

YES SHE CAN

GO SARAH GO SARAH GO SARAH

On CNN, a visibly shaken and speechless Wolf Blitzer suddenly developed a craving for country music and requested an immediate camera with audio cut to the band playing on stage saying “let’s listen to this country music... this is some we haven’t heard.”

That “country music” was Gretchen Wilson - singing the National Anthem.

Guess it WAS some(thing) HE hasn't heard.

Here is the YouTube clip of Mitchell’s interview w/Giuliani. She obviously isn’t a happy camper. LOL!

We need to treat every Olbermann thead just as we do Maureen Down!

Hey Keith! You can only dream of ratings like O'Reilly!

"Keith! You're a LOOOOOSER!!! "
