STFU with your lies about the NRA - we know you support the slaughter.

(63,912 posts)He looked SO disgusted!
I find her speech pattern grating and her raspy intake of breath drives me crazy. I can't listen to that, much less WHAT she is saying. So the TV must go on mute when she begins to speak...

(1,262 posts)hipsters? lol.
Yes, Cupp is despicable, and Toure is quite pretentious without really having much genuine insight of his own.
But Krystal Ball and Steve Kornacki are quite good, and speaking as someone who has even been accused of being a hipster (I'm a musician, comes with the territory) I'm glad to see people my age getting their shot.
Though, I do prefer to watch Krystal and Steve when they appear on O'donnell's show so I don't have to listen to Cupp.

(18,490 posts)Yes he is pretentious but he also consistently brings in a fresh angle I'm not getting from anyone else on teevee.
beerandjesus
(1,301 posts)...but I can't get past that "one-name" bullshit. It actually distracts me from the rest of the show. And around my house, we're on first-name terms with TV pundits (as in, "Let's see what Rachel's talking about today" . I assume the dude has his reasons but it still drives me nuts.

Jennicut
(25,415 posts)And yes, it is nice to see more pundits your own age discussing the daily issues. I love all the liberal pundits on MSNBC but sometimes they talk about things that are completely meaningless to younger Gen Xers and Gen Yers. Chris Matthews does this a lot. I also like Alex Wagner and of course, Rachel. All of them are in their 30's.

(11,014 posts)She just destroyed herself. She is despicable. She thinks the ad was "right on".
malaise
(268,980 posts)Wow this will play everywhere today.
Still they know her view and should have expected this pro-gun madness. Her cup runneth over with ignorance.

(3,957 posts)When pressed, she couldn't back up her words that Bush's daughters were the subject of liberal ads.
malaise
(268,980 posts)She's beyond pathetic - a first rate hack
Skidmore
(37,364 posts)She's a self-styled atheist who aspires to be religious after studying religion at an Ivy League school. She's taken her atheistic religious highly educated self into the world with aspirations of being a Teabilly Sasquatch huntin' gun totin' bear nabbin' tough girl. In other words, she's a fraud. Her persona doesn't even hold together. Half of the time she sounds like she agrees with the other when they are dishing snark and the rest of the time she only reads essays which I'm certain she stayed up all night working on with the fervor of someone meeting a term paper deadline for her favorite instructor.

brush
(53,776 posts)Bashir is still on though, right, just later?
MCNBC needs to get rid of that show and put Joy Reid on in that slot. She's fantastic. Or maybe some combination of Reid, Ball and Kornacki. Cupp is horrible and Toure is not as strong as I thought he would be. Plus, he lets them put on make-up that's too light for his skin. Wonder if that's purposely done? Why does he stand for that?
siligut
(12,272 posts)I liked to watch the news at lunch, Martin was wonderful. Crystal Ball is good, the rest of them, meh, Sippy is a bloviating, mascaraed sell-out. So I am stuck watching CNBC Closing Bell.
Make-up people aren't always very good, dark faces with white necks, smears on collars, Poor Rachel looked like they put it on with a trowel the other night.
loyalsister
(13,390 posts)I'm pretty lukewarm when it comes to political spokes persons. I don't even mind Joe too much. But she makes me cringe every time she speaks.
politicaljunkie41910
(3,335 posts)I think she just did herself a world of hurt on Morning Joe, because she came across as not having very good arguments or being able to back up her crappy positions. When Barnicle kept asking her for specifics and for the second time in a week, when confronted on a stupid argument and challenged for specifics, she had none. She was bailed out by that annoying British woman.
I also am of the opinion, that with her take this morning on the NRA, her not having a problem with their commercial regarding the Obama children, and her attack on Christie for calling the NRAs commercial reprehensible, that she is doing her best to replace Ann Coulture as the most reprehensible female voice for conservatives. With the vast number of rabid conservatives on tv and talk radio, Sippy Cupp is trying to compete with the best.
malaise
(268,980 posts)but she is way more intelligent than this cup full of stupidity

(95 posts)S.E Cupp is another SPITter (Sarah Palin In Training)
I bet you she will wink and nod and say "you betcha" when she is on TV spewing out BS. She'll say it without thinking it !
I don't watch the Cycle that much, I think its a throwaway show on MSNBC . I do see her on Bill Maher and Ms. Cuppy is very fake like Sister Sarah!

KharmaTrain
(31,706 posts)...the right wing hot sauce ready to take on the evil left wingers in their den of iniquity (MSNBC). She's the "voice of reason"...the one who can show us "libruls" that CONservatives have some kind of personality. Of course she fails miserably, but in her little world (and obviously of those who sign her paychecks) they think she's putting a "pretty face" on true American ugly.
I wish she were truly more transformative...turn herself into a vanishing act.
Pachamama
(16,887 posts)That is precisely what she is....a Suck Up.....she sucks up to whatever right wing corporate master or sponsor is paying the bill....in this case its the NRA....this woman is nothing....I actually watch the show the cycle because I do like Krystal Ball and Steve Kornacki and think they are quite good. But this Suck-Up - she is a corporate shill. An actress with glasses that remind me of a combination of Sarah Palin "dont I look smart" and an 8 year old who went to Claire's to buy a pair of fake glasses. She is like a female version of Luke Russert....she acts like an expert on every topic and that she knows better than anyone and you wonder how the heck she got to have any airtime what so ever on National Cable Television.....well, with Luke Russert we know how he got there....How did Suck Up get there, is a really good question because I dont think Tim Russert fathered her....
KharmaTrain
(31,706 posts)I think she's not bright enough to be a good suck-up...she is more vacuous...as a suck-up can, occasionally, sell you on their true conviction...Sippy has no inner foundation and thus her attempts at trying to create substance from the bullshit results in what I consider some hilarious results.
Cheers!
Pachamama
(16,887 posts)They would just sit there sucking and sucking away and nothing coming out.....kind of like S.E. Cupp....so yes, the nick name "Sippy" is apropos...
bama_blue_dot
(224 posts)that she thought that ad was acceptable.. Then she lies, and insists the Democrats have run ads about Bush's daughters! She needs to be fired!!

(306 posts)Everyone seems to share my feelings about Sippy.
I caught her on the wife's kitchen sink tv early this
morning. Way too early? I refuse to watch her on
my basement tv. I listen to Press and Stephanie in
the morning and won't watch MSNBC until Martin
comes on.
Sippy Cupp was saying the Dems ran adds against
Bush's children, you know, everybody does it. She was
called out and gave a lame reply that she would find
her source. She has dug herself a deep hole.
I was saved by the micro-wave beeper. Grabbed my
coffe and beat feet to the basement!

(70,503 posts)She shot a bear cub ...... what a big old hunter.
sulphurdunn
(6,891 posts)was part of a charity fundraiser for an organization that helps reintegrate disabled veterans by taking them hunting and fishing in Alaska. It's called Alaska's Healing Hearts and uses a Purple Heart as a promo on its website. Joe the Plumber is Vice President. I don't really know what to say about this. It seems to me that pushing a paraplegic veteran in a wheel chair out to shoot a bear is both incongruent with rehabilitation and ironic. I could be wrong, and I'm not passing out any moral judgement here, but I haven't been hunting since I returned from Vietnam, and while I still fish I do hook and release fly fishing. But that's just me.
