Andrea Greenspan-I gotta know..
How in the hell does MSNBC justify putting the wife of the man who was the "architect" of the economic collapse on the air, and with her own show, and not feel some guilt. This is ludicrous. She is such a no nothing nitwit it blows my mind. Any teenage girl could probably walk out of high school and do a better job than this witch. She is PITIFUL on a good day. Why doesn't faux news and CNN point this out? Because they enjoy it. Irony at its best. Wonder how much her and hubby have stashed in Switzerland.

1. I was wondering the same this morning. Only in a fascist society.

2. I was actually thinking this myself when
I was watching MSNBC today. I couldn't help but wonder whether she has any sense of embarrassment or feels humiliated by the mess her husband helped create.

um..normal people!

4. I'm with you. I cannot understand how MSNBC keeps Andrea Greenspan on
especially giving her a show slot! For your entertainment go to wikipedia and search her name...she's about as commonplace as they come. I think she has been in the right place at the right time...period.

5. They are masters of the universe, our overlords and ladies of the Beltway, in their social network.

6. And why did the same network make Maria Shriver resign when her husband
was elected Governor of California?

After all, Shriver used to do "human interest" stories and didn't cover any of the "serious" topics like politics, government, the economy and scandals like Mrs. Greenspan does.

Total double-standard.

8. For that matter - what about the complicity of cable biz news?
why should anyone listen to them now - they certainly didn't connect the dots.
treating Greenspan like he was god. treating companies with outrageous
profits like they were the end-all be-all - when deep inside they were
falling apart?

9. referring to her as Andrea Greenspan
often and always will do way more to raise awareness of who she is, and how stupid it is that she is a media spokesmodel And it plays the game by "their" rules, meaning overblown media sensationalizing the most trivial of things. Hopefully Keith and Rachael will see this post, and work that name in.

Not that what Greenspan did was trivial by any means
