NBC's Andrea Mitchell gives her take on the state of Iowa while covering the upcoming caucus. Mitchell makes her feelings about the Midwestern state to the viewers, opining that "the rap" on Iowa is that it is too white.

"The rap on Iowa: It doesn't represent the rest of the country, too white, too evangelical, too rural. Still here, politics are personal," Mitchell said on Sunday's broadcast on NBC's "Nightly News.

Well, We all know that certain forms of bigotry is socially acceptable.

[SES1066]

For the elite, anything in fly-over America is so very gauche. To be required to notice it, even once in every 4 years, is utterly gauche.

[Coldwater Creek]

What a small MEAN female. I refuse to call Andy a woman.

[mewzilla]

I was curious, so.....

Evening News Ratings: Week of December 19

Mitchell can spew away. Nobody's watching.

[mewzilla]

And their demographics are even worse than their ratings.

[ronnie raygun]

NBC, zero’s lap dog propaganda machine Andrea Michell recieves her paycheck and a job well done. Old white broad promoting racism a novel Idea

[Son House]

So, too white, too evangelical, and too rural couldn’t possibly pick NBC Andrea Mitchell Democrats.

Iowa ... the first in the nation to give us the homosexual, mulatto, boy king bastard with no background nor history.

THAT Iowa, you unmitigated slut?

[dforest]

Without knowing much about Andrea’s life, I could probably be safe in saying she hangs around very few people of color, lives near very few people of color, and lives a life of the very rich in a gated type community where people of color do her laundry, sweep her floors, and clean her toilets.

But she picks on real American folks who work hard and love God as being unfair. LOL

But thanks for playing Andrea, you hypocrite floozy.

[jersey117]

And the big cities in the blue states are too black. What’s your point Andrea?

[edpc]

And they have balloons, Andrea. Lots of them.

[Fireone]

Andrea- It’s because Iowa is still part of the United States of America, not some third world hellhole like NYC.

[GlockThe Vote]

She is a wealthy liberal Jew from NY who probably is guilt ridden beyond belief. What do you expect?

[SharpRightTurn]

“too white, too evangelical, too rural”—three things the media elite idiots like Andrea Mitchell detest.

You’re going to have an unpleasant surprise come election night in November, Andrea, when you see how many “bitter clingers” show up at the polls to throw your boy out on his rear end.

[rhombus]

NYC and Washington DC are just too black and too atheist... sound OK Andrea? Pfttttt....

[djf]

Didn’t she convert to Judaism to marry Mr. Green Jeans?

I’m not accusin, I’m just askin...

[jersey117]

You’re going to have an unpleasant surprise come election night in November, Andrea, when you see how many “bitter clingers” show up at the polls to throw your boy out on his rear end.

If December gun sales are any indication, I would say those bitter clingers will be out in full force come November. They think fly over folks are stupid when in fact, they see exactly what obama is trying to do to America.

[the invisib1e hand]

If they say it on tv, i guess that makes it so.

Snapshots from post-racial America.

[Doc Savage]

Must be like sandpaper in there. Not even Laz would hit this!

[ScottinVA]

"Too White, Too Evangelical, Too Rural"

Ah.. so THAT explains why Iowa fell hard by double-digits for Obama in 2008... right, Andrea?

[Condor51]

Okay Andrea, game on 'witch'...

• You must be blind as your husband looks like my butt crack
  
• Your husband is so old, he thinks 'SEX' is a stock symbol.
  
• The last time you had martial relations, it was with your first husband.
  
• Living is D.C. is great. If you like having seven locks on your doors
  
• Living in D.C. does have its benefits. Give me a year and I'll think of some
  and last but not least....
  
• The last thing Andrea Mitchell went down on, was the escalator at Bloomingdales.
  bada-bing, rim-shot!

So go take your uppity beltway attitude and shove it ya snob. btw, Take a stroll around DC at 1:00am, we'll see ya in the morgue.

Which I hear is where your husband sleeps!
...............

fyi, This 'cunning runt' is married to Alan Greenspan.

[Erik Latranyi]

Liberals, like Andrea Mitchell, love having minorities around providing they stay in their neighborhoods and allow wealthy liberals to drive through and feel sorry for them.

[Condor51]

grrrr, dang typos.
Nope ain't gonna fix em, too lazy -- just like Obama!

[KSCITYBOY]

Absolutely true!

[Texas Eagle]

"The rap on Iowa: It doesn't represent the rest of the country, too white, too evangelical, too rural. Still here, politics are personal," Mitchell said on Sunday's broadcast on NBC's "Nightly News.

Just out of curiosity, Mrs. Greenspan, who is making that rap?

[who knows what evil?]

How old is this bitter old harpy? It is LONG past time to kick her communist carcass to the curb?

[Altura Ct.]

“Too White...”

Thank God!

[TomGuy]

Fly-over country is an anathema to the Libbies on both coasts. If it weren't for elections, those Libbies couldn't even consider 'fly-over country' as having any relevance. And they are trying to sideline 'fly-over country' in elections by doing away with the Electoral College.

Why, because, as Mitchell says, "...too white, too evangelical, too rural."

Notice that she omitted too patriotic. Just an oversight, I'm sure. [/s]

[LetMarch]

OK, like Hilliary, she made points with all the non-whites,and the diversity crowd.

If she had been at the signing of the “Declaration of Independance” she would have said: “Too white, too evangelical, and too country!”

THANK GOD THEY WERE!
That was over 200 years ago, and nobody before, nor since has build a nation of freedom we have tasted, and celebrated!

[Jack Hydrazine]

I bet Rush is going to be all over this!

[RegulatorCountry]

Well, well. Ol’ Angrea pokes her sourpuss out like Punxatawney Phil.

She can’t see her reflection so twelve weeks of nastiness ensues? Is that how it works?

[reagan_fanatic]

As a native Iowan, Andrea, you can kiss the whitest part of my backwoods Iowa ass.

[leprechaun9]

AM (BM would be more accurate)
TOO LIBERAL, TOO RACIST, and TOO DUMB!

[DaveMSmith]

Gee, while the rest of the nation is struggling, Iowa’s unemployment rate is 5.7%

[jjotto]

Andrea Mitchell, surprise, a native New Yorker, was born Jewish.

[jjotto]

Iowa is 60% urban and has no greater percentage of evangelicals than the national average.

[abclily]

When I look at the vast infrastructure of our country, the many inventions that make the world a safer and more comfortable place to live, and the halls of justice established by our forefathers - I am overwhelmed with respect and gratitude for our white men.

[Texas Eagle]

Just out of curiosity, Mrs. Greenspan, how does the racial makeup of Iowa compare to that of NBC News?

[Texas Eagle]

"Shut up, Andrea. Nobody watches your show anyway."

[yank in the UK]

Perhaps she has a problem with the goy in Iowa

[Joe Boucher]

Sooo, is Andrea too Jewish???
What a bucket of horse pooh.
Liberal bitch.

[television is just wrong]

Andrea Mitchell is a RACIST!

[catfish1957]

Who is that? Andrea Mitchell in 1900?

[mriguy67]

Its rhefarm belt Andrea for Gods sakes- you will find some of the best work ethics in the Midwest

[ErnBatavia]

Alan bangs it like a screen door...

[johncatl]

Andrea Mitchell is: Too Biased, Too Liberal and Too Ignorant to be a Journalist.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Pinhead speaks.
