1. I saw this live and I LOVED it. The sad thing is though...

I expect this from our media.

What I *don't* expect (although I should at this point) is for a Democratic nominee to buy into and promote this BULLSHIT Republican framing of a non-issue: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x5515361

Go Rachel! Recommended.

2. Why is the host of a show (Banjo Boy) also a commentator on the same network?
I just thought I would ask

4. Because we don't get to hear enough of his right wing BS in the morning
Besides, they have to balance out the voice of reason (Maddow).

3. Rachel gets it. I have been saying from the day this broke that the Corporate Controlled Media
was focusing on the3 minor point (Guns Bigots and Fundies) and ignoring the larger point that both parties have sold out the working men and women of this country.

And I am not surprised that the republican candidate in our primary is jumping on that band wagon.
It was her husband who helped push NAFTA and all the flat earth free for the rich trade deals thru.

6. What a Bunch of Disengenous Media Hacks
David Gregory.... you are full of shit, and yes we know how the media works. We've seen you personally lob soft balls at Bush's press secretary for years. We've seen your media lie America into a fucking war as if it were a Fourth of July parade. So please, blow it out your ass.

9. Watch out. Some douche bags on here will come out and start defending Gregory
He's an self-righteous, idiotic tabloid reporter.

10. I have a crush on Rachel Maddow
She is the only campaign pundit that I even bother to listen to these days. It's a shame that she has so much sense and most of the panel doesn't or at least pretends that they don't. She's right on the money as usual.
