Who? Haley Barbour just on MSNBC with Andria Mitchel. EVERYTHING out of his mouth was a distorted down right lie! Made me want to vomit. To think he's on Fox news regularly spewing his lies and millions of people listen to that stuff 24/7. It sure is a daunting task to counter attack/ correct those lies and distortions. Sorry, but he made me soooo angry. I hope MSNBC never gives that creep a platform again. Maybe we should email Andria. I was bummed she let him go on and on before she started defending Obama. Still angry!

In my fantasies of course, I would have ripped him a new one.

(2,208 posts)That is the purpose of the Main $tream Media... to piss you off!
That way you function from a place of emotion, rather than a place of rationality.
This makes you more susceptible to wily charms of their advertisers.

Don't bother email Andrea or anyone else, because that just validates that they got through to you, and that it worked. Best just to turn off the TV machine, and don't give it that kind of power over you...

(17,528 posts)That seems like good rational advice. I'll take it. But I'm still boiling inside. No Dem could ever get a chance like that to continually rant on Romney on Fox. They'd be interrupted so much they'd be lucky to even say their name.

(21,925 posts)When Barbour went after the holocaust hero and man of peace for being an Obama supporter and anti-Morman I thought Mitchell's eyes were going to burn a hole through Barbour's ten feet of stomach flab.

(1,362 posts)Both networks have been lying for decades now, about everything from nuclear weapons to torture. Neither propaganda source has any credibility nor do they try to so, anyone who watches and/or believes anything said there by anyone is by choice choosing to be misinformed and lied to.

(10,479 posts)memory problems. She seems very hesitant in her delivery at times--almost as if she can't remember the next word she wants to say. I know she has been there a long time but that is no reason to keep her on if she has problems. I am sure she is a very nice person. I hope they will not keep Luke Russert that long. Even in the cradle of MSNBC he has more than he can handle. His ego has been on helium for months now.
Auntie Bush
(17,528 posts)he really screws up. NBC loved his father and feels they owe him a favor. I'm kind of impressed how well he is doing...being so young and experienced. Wait till he has a few years under his belt. He seems to have BSing down pat. I personally thing he is full of himself, but...he's Tim's son and has it made!
