Dana Milbank Suggests Hillary Clinton Should Drink "Mad Bitch Beer"

[devilgrrl]

As many of you know, the Washington Post's Dana Milbank used to do respectable journalism, back when I was six years old or something. But lately, he's basically been reduced to whispering off-camera expletives to Huffington Post National Editor Nico Pitney and performing in inane videos with Chris Cillizza, called "Mouthpiece Theatre." These videos are basically leaden, universally idiotic, and barely worth mentioning. But that all changed today, when Milbank told a joke about Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that was, on its own merits, newsworthy.

In the video, Milbank and Cillizza go on and on and on, suggesting the brands of beer that President Barack Obama could serve at other "beer summits." Examples: David Vitter would drink "Happy Ending," Jeff Sessions would drink "Dixie," Robert Byrd would drink "Old Peculier." But the seminal moment comes at about the two-and-a-half minute mark, when Milbank says, "And we won't tell you who's getting a bottle of Mad Bitch." That's when an image of Hillary Clinton appears on the screen. Har!

2. Gosh, even putting that aside, this doesn't even sound funny.

Where are the PUMAs when people say crap like this? Busy calling Obama a terrible sexist, usually.

3. His name is shit now

4. Geez, he really is a POS...

I was never a big fan of his but over the past few years he has degenerated into pond scum, imo.

8. Dana Milbank should fuck off and die,

slowly and painfully. I can handle Hillary being a "mad bitch" she would make that sonuvabitch cry into his potty chair, and not even work up a fucking sweat doing it.

9. Tell me why the Washington Post facing financial ruin is a BAD thing?

If there were justice, this twi would be fired...but we're talking about the Washington Compost.

10. The Post has responded to the video complaints

TPM reports: "Says Kris Coratti, Director of Communications at the Post: "The video was a satirical piece that lampooned people of all stripes. There was a section of the video that went too far, so we have removed the piece from our website."

That's some punishment there. http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/2009/07/the_post_responds.php?ref=fpblg
