Rachel Maddow is a class act

[Botany]

Cal Thomas called her and apologized to her this AM and
she just said that was good enough for her and the subject
was "buttoned up."

She also thanked Greta Van Susteren for her support and
for the twitter account #gladrachelwasborn. (Rough quote
and best guess @ the twitter handle)


Rachel = class act!



Rachel

[Lionessa]

1. Would be a great OP and I'd rec except....

I would imagine that choosing that photo of her is actually a bit insulting to her. She revels in her lack of frufru, so in honor of Rachel, who she really is, I wish for a unrec option.

[Botany]

2. Rachel has a great sense of humor too!

She would be the first to laugh @ that picture.



is this un-frufru enough?

[Lionessa]

4. I'm sorry I didn't realize your OP was all in humor, it sounded sincere.

And if it was meant sincerely, seems like a picture of who she is now, in all her marvelous-ness of who she is, the person you are talking about. I'd probably react similarly if someone pulled a college or high school picture of Hillary and used it in a similar OP, and for Rachel, it just seems even a tad worse as mentioned above.

Sorry we don't agree, I guess I don't know her, so I'm just trying to imagine how someone raised in the America she was raised in would feel being praised on one hand, and an old, girlie picture like that to almost feel like a slap at who she is now.

10. If you can find her her high school graduation speech she gave to her class

BTW I think it is a great picture ..... she has laughing eyes.

BTW part deux my o.p. was not all in humor .... she is a class
act! And I loves me some Rachel.

14. clearly our hearts are in the same place, that's what's important.

3. Aw.. She wouldn't be who she is now if she wasn't who she was then..

I like my Rachel in ALL her iterations.

6. Agreed

We are the sum of each moment as it builds up and I don't really care about what picture it is she's still beautiful to me.

If she is in show business she already has dealt with a lot worse than that picture--and I'm sure that she has some pretty thick skin by now. Anybody who works in that business must!

5. You said it, buddy.

She handled the Cal Thomas apology with real grace.

[Botany]

8. Did I ever tell you that you are my Fave?

12. What a great doggy, Botany!

He reminds me of my favorite doggy, Spencer, who went to doggy heaven in 1993. I still love and miss him.

PEACE!

7. I would marry that woman if I was a member of her stated sexual persuasion.

[AnnieBW]

11. Too late!

She's already got Susan! (But I would be in line right behind you if she was single, and I was gay and single.)

[Suich]

9. She's the only one I've ever heard talk about

what's going on in Benton Harbor, Michigan.

Since Michigan now has a surplus, the continued use of an Emergency Manager is ridiculous.

13. One of these journalists comes across us once in a generation.

Of course I wish she would wear better clothes.



Yeah I could dress her better. You should go shopping with me and my SO.

[sufrommich]

15. I love her. My favorite talking head by far. nt

16. Deja vu

Didn't this same thing happen about a year ago? Cal Thomas is such a shithead he'll pull this out again next year.
