Since 1988 The Communist Party in America hasn’t even bothered to field their own candidate, they decided they’d be better off backing Democrats.

Kansas Republican lawmaker Tim Huelskamp took MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow to task during a post-State of the Union interview on Benghazi secrecy, noting that if Maddow “would stop being a cheerleader and be a journalist, you’d recognize we’re not getting those answers.”
Huelskamp spoke with Maddow about an hour after President Barack Obama wrapped up his State of the Union address Tuesday night, with the MSNBC reporter taking the congressman to task for anti-Obama tweets she deemed offensive and inaccurate.
She zeroed in on one tweet, suggesting that President Obama was deliberately ignoring the ongoing Benghazi controversy, asking the lawmaker if he voted to cut State Department security at any point.
“Don’t forget, the fact of the matter is Hillary Clinton did not request security enhancements,” Huelskamp responded. “And we do believe that this administration let our troops down and let this diplomat down.
“We need more answers there,” he continued. “We need answers about a lot of things. This administration promised to be the most transparent in history, Rachel. And I think if you would stop being a cheerleader and be a journalist, you’d recognize we’re not getting those answers.”
Maddow, always eager to pounce on the slightest hint of Republican sexism, imaginary or not, was furious:
MADDOW: Did you just call me a cheerleader?
HUELSKAMP: Uh, I dunno. Maybe you have that history. I’m saying look at the facts –
MADDOW: No, wait, wait, wait. No, hold on, hold on, hold on. Did you –
HUELSKAMP: I’m saying–
MADDOW: Hold on!
HUELSKAMP: – you’re a cheerleader for the administration –
MADDOW: Ok, so I’m a cheerleader?
HUELSKAMP: – you’re not being a journalist when you’re not willing to look at the facts! If it was Bush you would be jumping and screaming –
MADDOW: You’re amazing.
HUELSKAMP: – but because it’s Hillary Clinton, you don’t want the answers, Rachel. Face the facts! We don’t know the answers there.
The two then got into a contentious debate over whether Obama’s promise to take executive action without Congress — along with unilateral changes already made to Obamacare — constitute “lawlessness,” with Maddow suggesting Huelskamp’s comment come from another universe.
“It’s the universe of reality, Rachel,” he retorted. “The universe of outside this Beltway. The president’s speech fell flat in the real world.”

In a way she is being a sexist....
There are male cheerleaders... You know...
I thought for one brief moment he was going to go wobbly (as Iron Lady Maggie Thatcher put it), but he “firmed up” in the face of her PMS-induced fury.
HAHAHAHA
We had a thread earlier this afternoon where a couple of bawling conservatives were wringing their hands that a Republican told a lying journalist to go to hell.
These GOPe wimps were crying like little girls that a patriot told a gestapo goon to F himself.
FR is getting interesting.
“...There are male cheerleaders... You know.....”
Yeah, they’re called “ballerinas”...
Ugh.
That’s the most that I’ve ever seen of that little boy Maddow.
I’m sure glad I’m already drinking.
“...wringing their hands that a Republican told a lying journalist to go to hell....”
Was that Rep Grimm from up in NY? I thought he did an awesome job with the pinch-faced weaselboy... That little pr*ck looked like he was going to crap himself when Grimm walked back over to him.
Good for the Representative. Time to stop playing with these Pravda apparatchiks.
I caught that too, but he did recover quickly and even more strongly for the rest of the segment.
Here it is:
This is how YouTube titled it:
Rep. Michael Grimm Physically Threatens NY1 Reporter
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbpxVO-mnYU
Look at the two douchebag news anchors’ “pained”, “concerned” expressions that a Republican “physically threatened Michael”.
Gee... they get kinda ....scared... when our side fights back, don’t they?
Psst... GOP... hint, hint... Testicular fortitude WORKS!!!
All that was needed to round it off would have been a nice, solid middle finger...
On the order of “Hey Rach, if ya don’t like it... Here y’are.”
We’ll never get anywhere being nice to these commie hacks. Call them out! Make them respect us out of fear. It’s all that ever works with their kind.
Now THAT's Hope 'n' Change!
LesbiDykes hate it when men stand up to them! Good job Huelskamp.
Of course, it is one ugly school that would have Rachael MadDyke as a cheerleader
Yeah, but Rachel doesn’t have her job because she is a journalist. She has it because she is a cheerleader. She would be fired for real journalism and telling the truth.
NFHale: Time to stop playing with these Pravda apparatchiks.
smoothsailing: We’ll never get anywhere being nice to these commie hacks. Call them out! Make them respect us out of fear.
Between the two of you, we got enough to kick some major leftist ass.
Here’s a slight modification of your posts, smoothsailing and NFHale: Stop playing and make them fear us.

A little leak in the dike (no pun intended) and pretty soon the wall erodes and the water comes rushing in. We’re seeing some of those walls beginning to crumble.
It will be interesting to watch as the cheerleaders of today try to spin their attitudes in the future when it is proven what a fraud 0vomit really is. (”I was just hired to read the news. I didn’t write it.” “I had to toe the company line if I wanted to keep my job.” “I was always a little suspicious, but I didn’t have any solid evidence.” “I’ve always supported my country and whoever the people elect.” - just a few samples of what to expect from the complicit media in the days ahead)
Rah rah rachel—sis boom bah!!
Roger that, sarge... not argument from me there.
