Tweety & Andrea Mitchell swoon over Lady Batshit: "She really has her finger on that pulse."
VIDEO @ the URL below...if you think you can stomach it.

MATTHEWS: Andrea, I hear something there that's powerful. It's connecting the regular people, the base of the country, the regular people and their sense of conservative history, their conservative view of history.

MITCHELL: I think you're actually right and there's a new PEW poll which says that people do not want to see their Medicare, Social Security, I mean, not surprisingly, they don't want to see their benefits cut, they don't want to see taxe increases. The majority of people in this country are not willing to do the things that John Boehner is now prepared apparently to do, that the President wants us to do, that leadership, arguably needs to do in order to get past this crisis.

Michele Bachmann really has her finger on that pulse. She's put up a new ad, her first ad in Iowa, which said I will not vote for a debt ceiling.

***

MATTHEWS: Okay, that's Iowa, the religious right and she may be perfectly, you know... perfect pitch, will that sell across the Republican base of the country? Can she compete for the nomination right to the end?

3. Does "sense of conservative history" mean being completely wrong

at every chance to speak?

She doesn't know history.

6. Ah yes, The conservative view of history.
The one where they change the events to match their sick ideology. Kind of like their brand of science, which, of course, ignores scientific facts.

Truth is far too "liberal" for them, so they just make shit up.:crazy:

9. Yeah, that was my favorite part...
...showed a clip of her from his show, when she was crazy, and tried to offset her new-found "sanity" and "finger-on-the-pulse-osity" by showing recent clips in which she's...well, STILL CRAZY.

:rofl:

:toast:

8. He talked about her past brush with insanity but now she's suddenly "serious".

The thing about tweety is he's a born sycophant.

If somebody is, or perceived to be, on the margin he'll ridicule them mercilessly but if their stock is on the rise he'll seamlessly change positions and kiss up in a really emetic way.

Remember this clip from election night 2010 where he gets in her face, says her philosophy is to investigate everyone and that she appears hypnotized and calls her a moron after the interview?

Seriously, I don't know why anybody watches him.

11. "their conservative view of history".
Oh, is that the one where African Americans had it so much better under slavery? Or the one where Paul Revere warned the British that they weren't gonna take away our 2nd Amendment rights?

12. Here's the problem with Andrea Mitchell's argument
"people do not want to see their Medicare, Social Security.... cut, they don't want to see tax increases."

Hey Andrea, the people who are worried about Medicare/SS cuts and the people who are worried about tax increases are NOT THE SAME PEOPLE!!

14. What drivel
Poll after poll has shown 70+% of the populace is just fine with raising taxes on the rich. I cannot stomach Tweety anymore. Andrea Mitchell has always been unwatchable IMO.
