Rachel Maddow had a real zinger on Thursday night when she slammed the GOP for having newly elected Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell give the Republican response to the State of the Union. How ridiculous! He’s been in office just eleven days! Boy, it must take a really desperate or incompetent party to use such a fresh face in such an important role!
Those silly Republicans. It’s like they want to forget the past.
It looks like Ms. Maddow is herself guilty of forgetting the past. Just four years ago on January 31st, 2006, Tim Kaine gave the Democrat’s response to the State of the Union, a mere seventeen days after being sworn in as Virginia’s Governor. Democrats immediately realized their folly, and the following year on January 23rd they sent Jim Webb out to respond. After all, he was far more experienced, having served a full twenty days as Senator for Virginia after assuming office on January 3rd.
Maddow’s other rocking assertion mocks McDonnell for mentioning just one other living Republican in his speech. In Kaine’s 2006 speech, zero Democrat leaders were mentioned. In Webb’s 2007 speech, the only member of the Democrat Party named was Andrew Jackson, who had died just 162 years earlier.
But hey, it’s MSNBC, where rule number one is never let the facts get in the way of a good invective.

Seems to me the clown that the liberals trotted out to give the State of the Union was the least experienced person in the room.
Madcow's shtick is getting reallllly old! She is being nasty just for the sake of being nasty. Her ratings are bottoming out and she grasping at anything she can to keep her dwindling audience riled up and at by her side.
NBC top brass should all be thrown out on their a&&e& for allowing such hate and disgusting views to be broadcast to tens of people every night.
No wonder noone watches that channel…FLATLINE
Maddow? Who's he?
Enjoy bashing MSNBC while you can.
Once Comcast customers realize they are paying the salaries of Maddow and her ilk a significant number of them will unplug their Comcast cables. DirecTV and Dish Network are available virtually everywhere in the country.
GE does not depend on its consumer business; it is largely a supplier to industry and a finance company. Comcast on the other hand is totally dependent upon consumers.
MSNBC is dead media walking.
I think he's related to Keanu Reeves??
So Jordan, by being heroic and watching her show.
You basically doubled her viewer audience.
One would never go broke betting on MSNBC on air personalities to make fools of themselves. I appreciate the effort you guys must make to be among the 75 voters they routinely get.
Isn't he that old fat guy that has football video games out every year?
Her?
Yes. It is consider polite to refer to a transvestite by the gender he or she seeks to portray.
Wait. That still doesn't explain it.
Her?
It makes you wonder when the lame stream media changes from a supposed business entity to a charity. Simply a waste of time, money and human flesh and yes, I know the last one is debatable!
We'll just call it "enigma"
I hope when Comcast buys msnbc they get rid of the 4 stooges on TV in prime time. They are hateful repulsive and quite stupid . They know zero about politics except slamming anyone who disagrees with their nightly BS. If comcast doesn't can them, I will be looking for another server and phone service. That Dipsh-i Joy Baher claimed today the audience at the Miss America Contest booed Rush………..another lie
Reading this story and some of the comments brought Air America to mind. What a bunch of tools libs are.
Them Libitard put a 1 term US Senator, with 143 days of experience, in the White House.
His claim to fame, he was born in Hawaii – or was he.
He was raised by his white grandmother who sent him to a private school.
He lived in SE Asia and attended a muslim school.
He went to Afghanistan, in the 70's – at a time when meer US Citizens were not allowed to travel there.
He attended Occidental, Columbia, and Harvard Law School, but has never released his transcripts to any of the school.
He hung arround with domestic terrorists – Bill Ayers and his wife Bernadette Dorin.
He attended services, for twenty years , and listened a black racist and america bashing pastor; but apparently had moments of inattention or deafness when that pastor made those statements
Great post!!!! I am going to start checking out other servers
And is FRANK MARSHAL DAVIS the real donor?
Hopefully, Comcast senior management is watching MSNBC and the rest of the Obama sycophants on NBC, and taking notes. Comcast must have got a good deal when it bought NBC since it's ratings are in the tank. Clean house and the brand will shine again.
MSNBC? Is that thing STILL around?
Rachel Maddow, to quote Thomas Sowell, is using an argument without and argument. Some zinger when you throw out an accusation without anything to back it up. Obama spends 70 minutes droning on and repeatedly lying and McDonnell gives a reasonable speech and this self anointed jerk comes up with this assine narrative. Comcast will definitely clean house.
Madcow is slipping off her meds again. Her employer should insist that she does a little homework before she goes on-air and makes herself look like an idiot that she really is!
It looks like intensedebate is borked because I can’t log in to any of the Big sites.
There we go.
I would have to say that researching Meaty Fingers Madcow would be torture a thousand times worse than waterboarding.
"Meaty Fingers Madcow" is better known for his days as a fullback for the Green Bay Packers.
Alright, I can't stand it anymore. This guy's grating voice and horrible personality make me grind my teeth. I watched as much of this video as I do channel surfing and I can't stand anymore. Yuck, I need a shower. I think I'll scrub with a Brillo Pad and some 20 Mule Team Borax.
Comcast will bury the current MSLSD contingent without much fanfare and re-tool to give FOX a run…The they are in business and too many loss-leaders hurt the bottom line..
I'm still shaking my head over the MadCow..That boy is apiece of work…
She showed up them republicans lickety split.
Rachel Maddow is now thinking "MMMMMM. Lickety Split".
This poor dumb woman(?). This is what happens when you let your ideology get in the way of your common sense. You make an a** of yourself over and over. Why this show is still on the air is baffling to say the least.
That's her best shot? The lefties are flailing.
I love the way Rachel Maddow Giggles when she gives her unbiased reports. That Giggle adds a real sense of sincerity to her demeanor. When she Giggles she looks like a high school Freshman outside the girls bathroom at recess. The Giggle is new to journalism but it is different. That girlish Giggle is probably her role in the pre-production meetings. Rachael where do we Que the Giggles. Que the Giggle. Que the Giggle. Not quite as good as SNL Rachael but you are getting closer.
Maddcow and Olby make the dumbest, most obscure, insignificant points. It's so desperate and adolescent. When they're not making things up, twisting context, or going on an ad hominem rant, they're playing 'gotcha' using forgotten trivia. Maddow would have no appeal at all to her left-tard viewers if someone shaved off that smug raised eyebrow of hers. What a supreme bore.
"For MSNBC it is not about ratings. It is about the billions in contracts that GE has with the government and the kick backs GE sends to the Democrats, PAC’s and their lobbyist clients. It is about Obama taking the missile shield away from our allies in Eastern Europe and the next day Russia announces that it is doing new business with GE. GE has also been doing business in Iran using a subsidiary. MSNBC’s ratings are so bad, and have been for so long that it has become rather obvious that GE is running it at a loss (and we define loss as at below opportunity costs) to keep the Democrats happy and the fat contracts flowing."

Who the heck is Rachel Maddow? She must not be on Fox. LOL!
TampaBayBull
Cute "tens of people"!
…and she never will be on Fox.
I'm still fuming about Brian Williams comment about the diverse human wallpaper McDonnell used as a backdrop.
David Gregory quickly tried to diffuse it by saying he wanted some people behind him to simulate the dais in the House chamber.
NBC is a total waste. It all plays into the hands of new media, which is good news for Big Journalism.
Same reason Air America stayed on life support for so long: the Left is convinced that its existence is necessary to combat the "evil" conservative media that keeps succeeding financially (despite the fact that they've been told, in no uncertain terms, that only Leftist media is allowed to be successful).
Rachel Maddow is David Shuster in drag.
Madcow Moody is beyond irrelevant.
Uh…didn’t our President win the Noble Peace Prize in 11 days?
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/president-obama-wins-nobel-peace-prize/story?id=8788973
I thought he was a Harry Potter Character????
Wasn't she herself given that job after being on Olbermann a few times as a guest:
Doesn't that involve a bag full of warm water and a tube?
Ms Madcow doesn't get it… The American people WANT new blood. We are PROGRESSIVELY getting rid of all the incumbants and the old blood in congress. Any wonder why MSNBC will be going away soon?
Madcow and Überdork are so uptight and angry that their faces are locked into permanent squints….either that or their underpants are too tight.
I enjoy Comcast Cable, phone and high-speed Internet. Great service, really.
So, I'll give them a reasonable amount of time to remove these hate-mongering, gender-confused, closet racists before I consider dumping them for DirecTV.
Has Madcow ever – even once – criticized Obamao? I'd be willing to bet the lil' fella is the leading Obama-apologist on television.
Transformers, more than meets the Eye.
Transformers, Rachel is a guy!!!!
"Maddow? Who's he?"
Keith Olbermann's illigitimate son.
Pretty easy to understand why MSNBC is going down the tubes with such luminaries as Maddow and Olbermann. As I have said before, constistency is not the strong suit of Libs and Dems and progressives, and fellow travelers, etc. Just keep attacking at all times in all directions. Saul would be proud.
She most certainly is not a fox.
Well, Keith told me on last night's show that his ratings have increased and that, because Fox is not a legitimate source of news, he, Olbermann, has the number one show on cable TV.
With sensible logic like this, Comcast would be crazy to let this jewel slip through their fingers…
You'll have to forgive Rachel. Since she found out Keith Olbermann was her long, lost sister she's been a bit bewildered.
If Obama's thin resume qualifies him to be President of the most powerful nation on the planet, how much experience does one need to give an 8-minute response to his SOTU address?
Fox her! (If you dare)
Extreme, pretentious, affectations of unfamiliarity to lead others into believing the unfamiliarity is evidence that the person is not qualified–how novel–not. Typical Leftist, scorched-earth, character-assassination. I'm sure she didn't see Barry that way. 'Pretty childish ploy–used to use it on my parents–they told me to quit acting stupid.
a weasel, yes…
Rachel could do her homework better if she came up for air more often.
"NBC top brass should all be thrown out on their a&&e&" for turning NBC and MSNBC into ratings bottom dwellers.
It will be interesting to see if Comcast cleans house throughout the networks.
Rachel Maddow, formerly known as Richard Madnuts, is a transgender candidate taking female hormones in preparation for his surgery. This hormonal imbalance tends to create psychotic rantings and trite accusations, much like arguing with a drunk woman who is miserable and annoying sober yet her personality gets worse when she drinks.
Evidence to why she's such a contender in the Race to the Bottom.
NBC is dead unless they force cap & trade legeslation through. NBC’s parent GENERAL ELECTRIC will make billions of this ponzi-scheme. It might just die alla ENRON 2000.
I absolutely love this story! In ALL seriousness, at first glance I thought she was a man.. no joking. I quickly (sort of) realized she, was a she. But then I listened to her words. This article is a perfect example of what Rachel Maddow represents. Not only will she say anything to push the leftist agenda, but she has a short memory, like most MSM outlets, conveniently "forgetting" important facts which would, if reported with what they WANT to say, would destroy any hope of making their point. She is unabashedly an agent of left.
Maddow either has the worst production/research staff in television or she's a pathological liar.
She is wrong so much that nothing she says can be taken seriously.
I don't mean just ideologically wrong, just plain factually wrong.
She must have a staff of Bimbettes, probably Olbermann's leftovers. Once he's done with them, lesbianism is the only alternative.
She might not have a staff at all. She might just go to the Huffington Post or Media Matters. Or she might just pick-up the New York Times everyday and make it all up from that. Either way, she's pretty pathetic as a journalist. She should be on Access Hollywood or some tabloid show.
Hey…her criticism is no less valid than when she slammed Obama on her show for winning the Nobel Peace Prize after only 12 days in office.
Right?
Oh wait….I was thinking of some other guy.
My bad.
Like a conservative talk show host explained – conservative media thrives because people who work and buy stuff listen to them (and purchase advertised products)… Libtard media goes bankrupt because welfare snobs listen to them and expect someone else to buy them stuff (my addition)… Hellooooooo!!!
Scrubs ROCKS!!! I usually miss the episodes on TV and have found http://scrubsepisodes.jimdo.com Now I never miss any episode hope this is helpful and have fun
If you want one-sided bullcrap fear mongoring based on paranoia and complete lack of fact checking, watch Glenn Beck and the other evening shows on FoxNews. If you want fact-based commentary done with class, logic and reason done by a person who is actually smart, watch Rachel Maddow on MSNBC. She is a breath of fresh air. Watch her for one week and you'll see a huge difference in the way she does her commentary show and the way anyone does it at FakeNews.
