Anna Marie Cox is DEAD to me -

[jillan]

She's on Rachel and just called Michael Steele the Joe Biden of the Republican Party.

How dare her put those two in the same category. Joe is lovable and Steele is just an ass :mad:

1. Shit!!!

I just started watching it so haven't gotten to that part yet. For some reason I hadn't been able to figure out, Anna Marie Cox always annoys me. Now I have a real reason.

What a pathetic thing to say.

[jillan]

2. I know - what a beatch

I was listening, not watching, I'll have to watch that part to see Rachel's face.
I think they are good friends.

3. I'm watching it now

and Cox seemed to be walking back from the comment. Said something to the effect, not that anything Joe Biden said is on the scale that this is. Even so, she said she's been calling Steele the Joe Biden of the republican party, which means it probably isn't the first time she's made that lame comparison.

7. Cox has a tendency to try to do the whole equivocation thing

You know..."both sides do it" etc.

It annoyed the hell out of me during the election.

I know people say Wonkette sucked after she left, but I actually prefer Ken Layne. He totally gets Biden.

9. She really tends to irritate me

and I think its a lack of maturity and experience. She doesn't seem to take anything very seriously, as if it is all just a game.

4. I'm going to complain to Rachel AND to Cox. That is just so WRONG I don't know

where to begin. :grr:

[jillan]

5. Go for it gateley!

6. Steele is dumb as hell too. Biden's gaffes are not the result of stupidity.

They are the result of him actually telling people the truth, no matter how ugly or course it may be.

8. Exactly

but no one knows what to do with an honest politician.
