This Is the Moment Rachel Maddow Has Been Waiting For
NYT ^ | 1 Oct 2019 | Amanda Hess

Posted on 10/01/2019 10:55:12 AM PDT by Rummyfan

Recently, I went to dinner at the home of Rebecca Kee, a preschool principal in San Francisco who turned to Maddow in her depression and confusion over the 2016 election. I brought a bottle of rosé, and she poured it into glasses decorated with charms that featured Russia-investigation figures on one side and characters from “Star Trek: The Next Generation” on the other. I sipped from the Hope Hicks/Beverly Crusher glass, and we watched Maddow’s show over veggie enchiladas. “I think of her as a news doula: You know the news is going to be painful no matter what, so we might as well have someone who helps us survive it,” Kee told me. Last year, Kee had a Maddow-themed birthday party, at which her friends and her two young sons put on big black glasses and slicked their hair to the side. Also in attendance was a life-size cardboard cutout of Maddow, which is now in storage so as not to startle guests.

After Rebecca Kee bought her Maddow cardboard cutout, she got a Robert Mueller one, too. For a time she would sit him in her front window, posing him near speech bubbles that she wrote herself. But after the real Mueller filed his report and failed to step into the role she had imagined for him, she tucked him away in the closet with Maddow. Now her car is decorated with Elizabeth Warren bumper stickers.

Mad Cow Maddow spoon feeds idiots and morons the left wing lies and propaganda that hey wish was true.

She was the best on election night when she finally rant out of lies to spout.

I’m looking forward to seeing the total look of defeat on her face on election night 2020.

This buffoon, like many, has cited “this is the big one” for 3 years now and all of it is fake.

“I think of her as a news doula:”
Whenever I think of her, I think “Madcow”.

American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don?t come hangin? around my door
I don?t wanna see your face no more
I got more important things to do
Than spend my time growin? old with you
Now woman, I said stay away,
American woman, listen what I say.

I’m a woman of a certain age and I confess I suffer from anxiety daily because I live in a deep blue area surrounded by smug, sanctimonious white liberal womyn and their cuckold husbands.

OMG, that's terrible. I find the men more manly and the women more womanly out in the rural parts where I own a small property. It's very refreshing!
