Her insipid mini rant about the terminology used in the discussion of gun regulation was just stupid. Why, why, why do they keep her on?

The get some RW eyeballs just by having her there. The nuts probably love seeing her "debate" the others (even if she fails terribly).
At the break, I think Martin Bashir wanted to smack her logic silly, but he kind of held back.

(27,787 posts)any crazy thing, and the others, if they disagree, do so only in passing.
Martin isn't going to do that ... he spanked her nonsense ... and you could see her become flustered because he dared to challenge her.

(14,559 posts)Bashir asked her about Loghner and the 30 round magazine. Her only response? We should stop killing one, not ten + one!
So, can't entirely eliminate every single homicide? Don't try for any.

(37,364 posts)If you point a gun at someone, you are committing an assault by virtue of the threat it portends. AND, the language used by some of these gun rights people is assaultive as well, particularly when implying that acts of violence and mayhem will ensue if anyone regulates gun safety in any manner.

Terra Alta
(5,158 posts)MSNBC has to have her on there, just so they can say "See? Not everyone on our channel is a liberal." I suspect they keep Joe Scar for the very same reason.
I don't like her either, but there is a reason she is on there. As long as people keep watching, she'll remain there.

(5,519 posts)Just like you said...she's on there for show.
BTW, I don't like her insipid ranting either.
No logic, just talking points tossed into the word salad.
