http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26315908/ns/msnbc_tv-rachel_maddow_show/

If you haven't seen this, do take a look.

Maddow does in incredible job of probing the positions of Joe Miller's supporters who hate Murkowski because she voted to confirm Eric Holder, a man they revile for being "anti-gun".

Unable to provide any specific examples, the young man tells Rachel to "...look at his voting record..."

Eric Holder doesn't have a voting record.

With their knowledge exhausted (it was a real short supply to begin with), a second woman switches her complaint to the voter intimidation by the Black Panthers, whom Eric Holder is refusing to prosecute because he is black.

So much for the "information age".

2. That segment scared the hell out of me
because, in my peaceful little ivory tower, I had not thought about the fact that such loudmouth ignoramuses exist. The real horror is that they can vote, and that they vote for bastards like Joe Miller and Pat Toomey.

5. I think they almost scare me more than Joe Miller himself.
Not just because there's more of them, but because they are sincerely ignorant.

Miller, Palin and O'Donnell are opportunists - nothing more. They smell money are pander to collect a paycheck.

But their supporters are sincere.

:scared:

9. "I don't have all the facts, but I'm pretty sure Santa Claus is coming this year."
"I don't have all the facts, but I think it would be more convenient to shit in my pants than use the toilet."

"I don't have all the facts, but I think I could save money if I ate discarded tires instead of food."

etc, etc.

12. The three people interviewed in that segment are Miller supporters
It's not a poll of Anchorage citizens but a sub-set, namely, those who support Joe Miller for U.S. Senate.

100% of the people interviewed were 100% wrong in everything they said.

That's well beyond the town's quota of dimwits.

Edited on Wed Oct-27-10 04:47 PM by ProudToBeBlueInRhody
......according to some here. :sarcasm:

Seems she asks the simple questions of people who get their "facts" from FAUX.

14. Rachel Maddow makes Glenn Beck look like Terri Shaivo.
:rofl: Too soon?

They must be trolls.

Maddow is the best thing to happen to the left - and news media in general - in 40 years!

She probes gently, yet doesn't relent. She's overwhelming positive in her attitude and always respectful.

The Murkowshi interviews last night were INSPIRED.

16. Saw that, too
Pretty stunning, though it shouldn't be surprising right now.

The crazy is loose and getting a lot of airtime.
