Ouch…CNN had a rough day
This is just a pro-active warning because I just know that zero x 4 will be showing up…………IDIOT ALERT!!!!!!!!!
Ratboy,
Give him a break! He’s just frustrated that he can’t find his village!
Rachel had a tough day too and so did Larry O and Ed Shultz and Tingles and Sharpie and Tingles rerun and Ed Shultz rerun too!
So, who thinks Rachel Maddow is going to lose viewers after admitting that she purposely used a clip of John Mccain that was purposely edited to make him look bad so that she could smear him…
She even admits that what the editted tape, and what she claimed was not true…It’s like saying “I lied about this guy, but it made him look bad, so you all don’t care…because the whole idea was to make the guy look bad, not report the news.”
I’d say she doens’t lose any at all, because everyone who watches her show knows it’s not news, it’s just one atttack on republicans after the other, and truth has nothing to do with it.

Ratboy,

I dont think he could find his but with both hands!!!!
Oh, let me beat him to it this time…
OOO OOO, look at all the OLD foggies watching Rachel Maddow….
aover 60% of Fox audience is over 65. And this number is growing…….It’s on in every rest home in the country….

Yep them old lefties sit there in there boxers watching and drooling whispering to themselves…………..”that is one goooood lookin feller!”
It is OFFICIAL!!!!!
IDIOT ALERT!!! IDIOT ALERT!!!!
To make the sequester seem worse than it is, would the Liar in Chief, purposely cut the those areas that would be most painful for the public so he could blame Republicans?? I wonder…it would show his predisposition for being a small, small man…

Do you think he will cut back on his campaign roadshows??
RAt has no answers–he can’t even tell us what the backward thinking right wingers have accomplished…Maybe is he went to the CPAC comedy convention he would know…..
So far, nobody has mentioned the spat between The Cementhead and Cogressman Keith Ellison. Every rational, informed, educated person who is ever booked on Cementhead’s show should do the same thing. Soon every guest would be an extreme, ultra-right-wing lunatic like the host. Then the only people watching his show would be like people who slow down and watch car wrecks.
When is the right wing fringe going to start pushing creationism????
Rat knows the answer…
Hey Joe!! Yea you Doofus!!! I think we all got a pretty good idea as to how gruesome it was!!!
Biden: I know ‘gruesome’ details from Sandy Hook that I can’t share
Speaking to the National Association of Attorneys General this afternoon, Vice President Joe Biden reminded the audience of the grisly horrors of the Sandy Hook massacre in Newtown, Connecticut.
“Twenty innocent babies riddled – riddled with bullet holes – were the press not here, I could tell you what is not public yet about how gruesome it was,” Biden said, revealing that he spoke to State Troopers about the investigation
The right wing’s 2014 political them: Chose one or more….
1) creationism
2) the gold standard
3) the evils of the Federal Reserve
4) legitimate rape
5) banning birth control
Hey, Rat–why did La Pierre flip flop on gun checks…..
Who is supplying La Pierre’s blood money:
1) the drug cartels
2) bubba’s with very little education
3) anti-government extremists
4) gun mfrs
5) al qaeda
6) Al Capone
7 all of the above
