So, UP has Amy Kremer of the Tea Party Express

[XanaDUer]

On. Wow- they're discussing the fiscal cliff, John Boehner, she does know who made up the fiscal cliff BS. Urgh!

1. I will not be watching hour number two

I'm watching President Obama on MTP

[XanaDUer]

2. God she's ignorant! Nt

[Skidmore]

3. Well Hayes left Korneki (sp?) in charge.

It's been pretty much a RW lovefest this morning.

[Champion Jack]

4. Turned it off, don't care for the substitute host either

[XanaDUer]

6. He's doing a decent job nt

[spanone]

5. their aim is to destroy medicare, social security and any social progams they can.

[Champion Jack]

11. Because THAT is what their corporate owners demand. Grassroots my ass

[MrYikes]

7. I tried to watch it,

but they gave Jeff Merkley, D-Oregon, whom I like, a short bit of time, then put him on hold, went around the blah, blah table for a long time. I was thinking that the Senator was just standing there waiting to say a bit more and had to wait through this dribble. Finally back to Jeff, but no,,,,his audio was not working,,,,yeah right. What a set up. I waited to hear Jeff because of my respect for him. Then left.
The show lost a viewer for ever.

8. Well Keith Ellison just had a long time to

Speak did a great job, and now they're going to discuss, in front of that ignorant TP woman is the Tea Party dying!

[Webster Green]

9. I'm curious as to what "UP" might be.

I'm guessing it's one of those Sunday morning propaganda fests.

[XanaDUer]

10. Yup nt

[loyalkydem]

12. No when Chris Hays is hosting it's a great alternative to Meet the Gregory

[NC_Nurse]

13. I guess they have to put these ignorant fools on once in a while to represent their supposed

"principles". I think Kornacki is doing a decent job, but she is just one of those talking-point spewing people who doesn't seem to grasp the deeper issues. I think it's interesting to see these folks talk because you have to know what they're about if you want to take them on. What makes Up! a great show is that they actually have a respectful discussion instead of a shoutfest of partisan bullshit. At least the partisan crap she says is in a form that can be discussed and disputed instead of just laid out unchallenged.

She is pretty annoying though.

[XanaDUer]

15. Thank you, NC Nurse!

that was a great, thoughtful response. Ms. Kremer was abysmal in her performance, and she was obviously out of her depth during yhe round-table discussion. The substitute host did a good job and , to me, it was not a RW lovefest; quite the opposite. Ms. Kremer ended up parroting the usual platitudes about keeping politicians accountable, "living within our means" etc. in other words, a total cipher with nothing new to bring to our country's myriad crises.

14. why the fuck does the teaparty have a seat at the table? oh, kornacki is host...
