David Gregory: McCain's Prevailing Windbag
By bluegal Tuesday Aug 05, 2008 4:50pm
Is there some sort of prize being given to the reporter who can best spew Karl Rove talking points about Obama? I mean, even without a secret ballot, you gotta give the trophy to David "White House" Gregory:
GREGORY: Yet, Jay, you know that conservatives are beginning to make an argument here about Obama, that he's famous for being famous, that he's a light weight, that he's presumptuous, that he's self-absorbed, and that there's something mysterious about him. All this talk about whether it's weirdness or that you can't quite nail down what his core is all about, is to say there's question mark above this guy's head. Until you get that answered, you have to vote for the guy you know and trust. That's McCain.

Rachel Maddow almost succeeds in talking over the prevailing windbags in this segment, but is barely able to get a word in as the gentlemen swoon over the McCain We All Know So Well. But Rachel? Nevermind the nine houses and the five hundred dollar shoes, what about the anti-choice platform plank and the foul-mouthed temper? We've only just begun to know all about that...

They got to Gregory. They have pictures of him with a little boy or something. He used to crawl straight up Bush's ass in the
pressers, now he is working for McCain. More power to Maddow!!!
David Gregory on Imus in the Morning hi as a kite!
Yeah Gregory is just another hack for mccain...these worthless fucks make me so enraged I want them all tarred and feathered (except for Rachel)
It's good to finally see this site and others calling David Gregory out. He's a moron who isn't fit to clean Rachel's shoes let alone have his own show.
He should just give in and go on Fox where he can dance with Rove as much as his little heart desires.
Rachel rocks. Gregory is as sickening as Matthews. On the day Russert passed away both him and Matthews acted like they were going to lead a prayer meeting on air.
Dump Gregory and put Rachel in his place and there would be a second show I would actually watch other than KO.
Let us use Davids real tribal name: "Dances with War Criminals". Less confusion that way.
Leadership @ 2:
Anyone who has ever been high knows he sounds more high than drunk. Every fu*king thing is funny when you're high. That's what I miss about it.
Well Gregory did learn from the best of the White House Press Corp.....
Jeffy Lube Gannon
What's with these McCain/Bush supporters? They are so very rude, they always try to talk over others. This is why they are so stupid. They don't hear what other people have to say.
Vice President Rachel Maddow.
Smart, intelligent, vibrant... and unlike the criminal Cheney, she shoots straight.
i've learned to sacrifice my XM/AAR rachel for one hour to the better good and education of a greater number of citizens... this show is simulcast during her first hour...
but i absolutely can't stand that grinding, nerve rattling lead-in NOISE the is on that show... it is hard to listen to that show... made for teevee only...
...this is just the reason I shut the sound off unless Rachel is talking. I keeps me from throwing a brick thru my T.V.....lol.
Gregory's show, and Gregory's own apologism for McCain, stinks. But nothing in this election cycle is more nauseating than Jay Carney.
In general they don't talk much about anything of substance and even worst they frame the subjects to make obama be on the defensive , by almost all the fkn time starting with " John McCain says " and from then on , its down hill for obama , being not black enough , doesn't wear a flag pin , Rev Wright 24/7 for weeks , while Keating five never discussed , his flip flop on TORTURE never a major topic , his proven lies about Obama saying Tire pressure is a substitute for oil drilling .
It's all agenda driven discussion , framed to support MCsame with phony , contrived issues like " wHY ISN'T OBAMA FURTHER AHEAD " . Well HELL you can ask the same thing about McSame , Gregory . But your to cowardly and too biased to ask why your " straight shooter " isn't ahead , eh buddy . Why isn't you're well known " hero" well ahead of the "inexperienced politician " from Chicago amd even with the majority of the blathering talking heads repeating every talking points from the bush/McSame Regime , praising the " the maverick " even with all the contrived ass kissing ...MCSAME is still BEHIND ..gweeegory .

They think they can make up for the lack of logic and facts with higher volume and more words.
It makes me sick to watch this kind of rude bull####. My spouse is a Republican and has switched over to BBC news and PBS news. The deciding factor was witnessing a debate on some economic issue on PBS where the two people debating were actually courteous to one another and never interupted one another, not once. So the impatience and disgust we feel with the MSM has become a bipartisan issue.
These people are a joke. The MSM antics have become Jerry Springer on steroids.
I know Bob Somerby can be a stern aunt but I think he's had Gregory's number for quite a while.
once you have a really nice boat maybe you aren't going to want to rock it.
let's hope Rachel Maddow doesn't really like boats. trying to get a word in edgewise with that gang, she's the hardest working person in show business right now.
Every generation has their heroes
that was obvious they didn't want to hear it. i don't know rachel but my guess she doesn't want to talk about mccain's shoes,houses and crap.....but the RNC has brought it to that. this maverick....i'm just like you brand is a bunch of shit.
look at it 8-9 homes let's be conservative no pun intended and say @3,500 sq. ft.28-29k sq. ft. private plane...the guy has been in the government his entire life collects social security....please... this the biggest joke mccain doesn't know anything about capitalism...by the way those expensive shoes were ugly dawg
Fruity Rudy Drooliani is on Gregory's show right now , spewing his usual bullshit about how tremendous McDepends is ..........There's a ringing endorsement ; Rudy Ghouliani shilling for you.
I enjoy good conservative counterpoint, but credible hosts damage their program by havibg Joe Watkins as a commentator. If he ever does grasp a fact, he will distort it. The stupid grin makes think that he just slurped the last morsel of McCain off his lips.
All this is classic Rove, and hope people aren't surprised.
If you're a guy who "luckily" got into the national guard and avoided Vietnam, and your opponent volunteered to go to Vietnam: ATTACK HIS VIETNAM SERVICE!
If you're a guy born into a powerful family, a Senator your whole life who loves to appear on comedy shows and sitcoms, and you're against a man with humble beginnings who rose up on his own ability: ATTACK HIM AS AN ELITE CELEBRITY!
It's classic Rove. Attack them where you are weak. It might win again.
If only there werea website with clips (evidence) showing the particular political leanings of ALL news/infotainment personalities!!! The hackery is never going to stop without something such as this to shove into their faces.
McCain has NINE houses? Really?
I seem to remember the Repubs going after John Kerry for his rich wife's lifestyle, including tabloid-style stories of Teresa Heinz Kerry's fancy houses.
I know, It's OK If You're A Republican. But why is the double standard not even challenged by the Dems?
Well the cons go on auto babble the minute anyone is critical of one of their own. You have to just try to talk over it and hope for the best. Good luck with that.
Fact remains what passes for communication in this system is a joke. In order to communicate people need to listen not "react" from their Pavlovian-Reptilian brain stem.
Gregory was one of the privileged few of the fourth estate to be at the banquet for the Queen.
McSame made his money the old way - he married it.
We're center stage for the demise of the Contarians(our motto - "It's always easier to be against something".)
There is a big problem here. Sure Rachel is right but
the American voter is a dumb ass & will vote for McCain
regardless he will be worst than W. Imagine that? I'm
old but my finances are in good shape. My kids? One is
50yrs old & a lawyer for the state. She is set. One son
who has no kids while he & his wife have worked for the
state for over 20yrs. They are ready for early retirement.
So good. As long as my family has nothing to worry about
even if McCain gets elected it will give me pleasure to watch
the moaning when that crazy conservative is president. I might
vote for the bastard myself. Americans deserve another Bush :-)
wow... listening to guiliani now... is this ad approved by mcCRONY?
MCMetal @ 20:
i give you credit i can't listen to him anymore. he has to be on the mcBush payroll..he didn't try to get the nomination.something stopped him maybe the RNC knew he didn't have a chance..too many skeletons
What the Hell, there is so much bias anymore I can't stand it. And what about Cindy McCain? I've heard Michelle described as a 'Babymomma', the stupid 'terrorist jab', The cover of the magazine(It's satire, I know) But Cindy is above reproach? A former drug addict whose husbands absences allow her to take money from a charity and of course she was the other woman. WTF?
CMINCA @ 16:
I'm with you. I get my information from the BBC evening news. Sad that I have to go there to get grown up discourse and informed opinions.
This once again (for the one millionth time) highlights the general stupidity and A.D.D. attention spans of the American public. We have people raised on Us Weekly and Entertainment Tonight. Newspapers are written at a fourth grade level. Hell, even movies can't be more than two hours long, because people struggle to remain focused for that length of time.
Is it any wonder that our wonderful US media has been reduced to delivering brain-dead scream-a-thons? That's all people can handle...and that's apparently what the majority wants.
Just one more nail in the US coffin.
Ratface @ 27:
hey whatever turns you on...other people moaning and suffering enjoy........wow
I said the MSM was going to be all about McCain after the primaries. McCain said he would use the media to paraphrase everything he says. He didn't say that they would ignore his gaffes. MSM is pro repug. Obama and us, his supporters, have to fight harder.
Gregory was one one of the privileged few of the fourth estate to attend the White House Dinner for the Queen.
McSame made his money the old way - he married it.
We sitting front row center for the demise of the Contarians (our motto -"It always easier to be against something").
Rove is only the most visible head of a Hydra of Perfidy.
Ron @ 33:
bush&cheney got there guy rove in their.....they know the public and the effective linguistic framing from doing their group studies over the yrs.people are predictable the casinos/market will tell you that.
We all need to send Rachel (regular mail) a thank you card. Everyday, I become more and more impressed with her knowledge and her grace. In one sentence....she can cut a GOP hack to shreds.
I look forward to the day she has her own tv show.
I can't believe that dim bulb actually said they've gone back to the "old fashioned way" of winning campaigns by sliming their opponent.
I knew I was old but I didn't realize I was old enough to remember when elections were run (and covered by "re-por-ters") based on issues.
Cats r Flyfishn @ 9:
Just once during one of the talk overs I'd like to hear someone yell SHUT UP!
HereinDC @ 36:
She might if McCain wins. If Obama wins she'll need to find another career.
this why this election is so important. if obama wins the msm and the neocons are finished. if mccain wins the neocons and their asshole lickers, the msm, will run this country forever.
captaincooked @ 38:
Buchanon has said that to Rachel.
David Gregory danced with Karl Rove -- that says it all. What happened after the dance, a little Gannon action?
I've been saying for some time now that David Gregory is a phony. That's what it comes down to. Any propagandist is untrustworthy and that's what Gregory is.
Like the other extreme lightweights they hire, the Mass Media Zionist Moguls are always trying to pass these loser shills off on us as respectable, intelligent, fair but tough and always ready to ask the hard questions...as long as they're serving Israel's interests.
Tim Russert was another Zionist gasbag who was glorified who they tried to glorify because he served them. They're everywhere on all the networks. Fox News is 100% Zionist-Nazi viewpoint. The other guys are about 80% Zionist-Nazi bullshit. Most of them are so stupid they don't even know that they're working for the Likud Party. If they suspect it they don't say anything because they're making too much money and don't want to lose their cushy jobs.
Think about it. If it weren't for the internet, we wouldn't know all this. That's why they're going to take this beautiful thing away from us sooner or later. The ruling thugs can't let the public engage in free speech because they might end up coming down the road with a rope.
Gregory and lieberman are two of a kind, both despicable. their time will come.
I can never get that image of Gregory on stage with MC Rove (or whatever the idiot/fuck they called him) out of my head.
And why aren't there more like Rachel? Is she the only smart, funny, sexy, dyke liberal around? We need a few dozen more of her.
redcat @ 40:
As long as we consume more then we produce there's not much hope.
CMINCA @ 16:
Indeed. I can only stand to get my news from the various, 'round-the-world websites and blogs. As stated by Lara Logan, "If I had to get my news from the American media, I'd shoot myself." (Or, something very similar to that.) She's so right. Researching on your own is the only way to get a real glimpse of what the hell is going on.
Initially I liked Gregory's Race for the White House, but more and more, Gregory isn't playing the dispassionate host but an intruder into the comments of others and frequently in defense of McCain. I figure Gregory knows his days are numbered at Race, wonders about his future and sees Maddow eclipsing him with her smarts, assertive but very cordial manner. I notice he has changed the program's format slightly interjecting, now and then, some personal interviews thus giving him more of the spotlight during these final, pre-election days of the program. The Race topics are always framed around Obama and frequently in a negative light. How about discussing some of McCain's liabilities instead of what's wrong with Obama's poll numbers, is Obama "exotic, is Obama full of himself? All are dull topics. One night my husband and I noted every topic was focused on some Obama negative. I still like MSNBC but among Hardball, Race for the White House, and Countdown, there is alot of repetition of film clips and similar stories. It gets old. In addition, to Maddow, John Harwood and Michael Smirconish are the brightest with fresh, original "takes" on events; they don't just parrot the same, old canned responses we hear on all the programs.
#43 your'e right. i've been saying for some time that gregory was nothing but a white house plant at those press briefings.
Rider3 @ 47:
Unfortunately the end results are more depressing then they are inspiring.
dancin' dave gregory -- karl rove's dancin' dolly? he's a punkass bitch.
rachel's message: do people really know mccain or do they think they know him. i'll bet 6-7 out every 10 people know little to nothing beyond the fact he was in the military..they don't know his policy/campaign issues,past voting record,that he collects social security,9 homes, what committes he was on. they think they know him and that's a feel good for people who are lazy and afraid to face the facts.....some of these people voted for bush and they're afraid to admit the truth about the iraq war...they have the blood on their hands.....obama is running on.. i was against the war people that voted for it can't handle that. i've been around some of these republicans.....can't handle the truth. to them it's the left not understanding. some will not give in too much to bare.
MSNBC is only good for 'LOCKUP Prison' shows and repeats of 'To catch a Predator'.
I haven't watched them for a good while, although I don't watch much TV during the summer anyway. I figured I'd rejoin them after the Conventions.
"I got to get in here, we have to take a break" just as McCain takes a few punches from RM.
welll...Joe Scarborough and Pat Buchanon get Honors too for the Turd Blossum award....but David has not been right since he danced with Rove....( and his show is just pathetic pandering....and such a mancrush on McGramps....kinda nauseating...but his numbers are tanking ....which is a good thing...)
Remember the old days when Gregory had some balls? What a sad neutered little puppy he is now.
you really have to admire rachel maddow. she's quick and articulate. now words wasted. and she's not going to be put down. some people are intelligent but arent quick enough or concise enough to make an impact.
pissed off patricia @ 7:
Hahaha, that's so... hahaha hahaha, that's so funny, hahaha hahahaha. (Wanna toke?) :)
Waydafuk'n go Rachel Maddow !!!
Marcee @ 48:
i think it was yesterday... he actually said to the guy, a local winger-radio show host, at the end of the segment, during which rachel shredded him, "i want to be on your show! i'll call in sometime!"
ugh... ... i dunno, just thought that seemed wrong...
Why does David Gregory hate jounalism?
DJ Gregory is just 'samplin' some ill shit by his homie MC Rove don't ya know, ...ya boyyyyyy!
yea rm!
David Gregory is a light weight for a journalist. He will never measure up. History will show him part of the Problem during the Bush years. He will never reach the stature of Helen Thomas or other icons in the Washington press. He doesn't get it.....and he never will.
Did anyone notice that Gregory did a very unusual thing in discussing Ron Suskind's revelations? He actually read the White House response in full. Word for word. All of it. That's generally not done. Snippets are the norm. It seemed all too obvious that Gregory had spoken with the White House and they asked him to read the entire thing.
Also, contrast his reaction to the revelations with Olbermann's, just two hours later. Keith had Suskind on the show, and they both talked about his star witnesses walking back from their claims in the book and why. Suskind has them on tape. If this ever goes to a hearing under oath, both men will have to recant their walk back.
Did Gregory mention anything of the sort? No. Just that both men had made their retraction.
Add it all up and Gregory truly looks like a mouthpiece for the Administration.
redcat @ 49:
I've not been a fan of Gregory either - talk about being "a lightweight and presumptuous" - he certainly fits the bill. I always wondered where he came from and how he seemed to suddenly be movin' on up in DC, as I didn't think he was that great an interviewer or analyst.
I was curious about his background so I checked Wiki. Interestingly, he's married to a woman who is an attorney and has had a career in government, beginning when she served in the US Army - intelligence and such - and then as a justice dept. prosecuter (involved in some high-profile cases). Now, she happens to be the general counsel for Fannie Mae.
So, I have a better idea of why David made it to the WH press corps and a show at MSNBC.
I listen to Race for the White House on the radio here in Los Angeles. I can't stand listening to this embacil Gregory anymore. I'm not exaggerating when I say that about 99.9% of the subject matter, whatever it is for the day, is started out by Gregory asking the question . . . "Panel, doesn't this create a problem for Obama?" On this show as with all the other shows, they never ask "why is it that the maverick McCain is a known quantity and hasn't been able to reach anything more than a statistical tie with Obama?" Gregory says many stupid things and has the usual right wing hacks to go along with the framing of the topic. He even agreed with the right wingers that the Vanity Fair cover makes people realize that they don't know who Obama really is, another "problem." He also gushed about how impressed he was with McCain's book.
I expect very soon to hear . . . McCain takes a shit in public. Panel, doesn't this cause a problem for Obama?
Dances-with-Rove needs to go. His show is stupid, irritating, and I no longer can hear any of Rachel's radio show because this clown. Our local talk station only plays this crap. The music alone is so nauseating, I can't even hang in to hear what she says.
Gregory is so twisted to the reichwing, I can't stand to watch him. He must be auditioning for FAUX.
KarL Rove's dance buddy. Journalist? Where?
EVERY DAY... here in Austin... The Republican talking points SPEW SPEW SPEW from the Radio Retches (Laura, Rush, and Hannity) all day long ... THEN from Dick Gregory on MSNBC in the afternoon.
Sanity finally returns to the publically licensed broadcast universe when Countdown comes on at 7pm.
the media is not doing the american people any favors by feeding into misconceptions by lines of questioning that is premised on misconceptions which gregory seems to be doing day by day. after a week where obama got pummeled by mccain character attacks which seemed to have worked, gregory asked GIULIANI (a surrogate for the rival) why obama is not hitting the 50 percentage mark. seriously, ask giuliani THAT???!!!. i couldnt believe that somebody like gregory would give one side a leg up to attack the other. of course giuliani is going to take advantage of that. what a gift gregory is to the mccain campaign.
dan abrams is picking up as well. as a lawyer, his sense of fairness is kicking in, and has been pushing back a bit.
gregory always seems to mention the "empty suit" charge against obama which of course is not true. harvard law review prez, harvard law magna cum laude, constnal law prof, community organizer etc. just with the hlr cred, nobody should be able to successfully propagate any empty suit charge. what he can fairly ask is whether such charge can even be lodged against obama despite his credentials. then discuss.
rachel maddow is right, too, that there is so much misconception about mccain but what she politely left out is that those misconceptions have become accepted fact because he practically bought the media with this friendship which includes barbecues at sedona. we dont know what the totality is of mccains military records. we dont know the circumstances surrounding the crashing of 5 planes; why he was able to get a coveted navy slot when he almost graduated as the class goat etc. the media has dropped the ball with regard to mccain. it's a pity. america has so few investigative journalists. the rest are just talking heads furthering self-interest and corporate bottomline.
I think Gregory practices Larry Craig's wide stance in the men's stalls with John McCain and the neo-cons.
They keep saying this BS. I've been following politics for about 30 years and I barely know anything about Mccain. Barack Obama has been in the news for the past two years, Oprah introduced him, so many people voted for him, everyone knows him. He is a household name, the gop wishes he were new, that's their bullshit meme they're trying to pawn on the American public.
On todays show this ass clown David (I love McCain) Gregory had a topic for debate which was “is McCain still a maverick” Guess who Gregory had on to debate? Yes, Rudy Giuliani. Boy you must really be going after the facts here about if McCain is still a maverick with this guest. Do you think Rudy will side with McCain or say he was never a maverick, that it is a myth created by the media? It’s like an interviewer asking your mother if she thinks her son is a great kid. Gregory always pulls crap like this. Yesterday’s topic for debate was why is Obama not beating McCain by larger numbers. Really is that the question you should be asking. The real question is why can't McCain get above 43% nationally. After all he is a POW war hero, expert on foreign policy and national security, the inventor of the surge and a maverick. Douche bag Gregory also loves to post quotes from ring nut writers like David Brooks who always have shitty things to say about Obama. He never quotes any anti McCain articles. I guess there must not be any. I really like Rachel but watching this show makes me want to blow my head off
But Rachel? Nevermind the nine houses and the five hundred dollar shoes...?
I've known of the multiple homes for months (via the blogosphere, not the MSM, which has said zip about it) and what struck me is this: that McCain, a part of the military aristocracy ( father, an admiral, grandfather, an admiral), married to the heiress, and owner of nine homes.... and according to the MSM"s campaign narrative, it's the black guy from Chicago who's the "elitist"... too much so to REALLY connect with voters.
It's laughable, and thanks to Rachel for getting the facts out.
this guy is a complete tool.. it would seem that everytime rachel starts to threaten to shift the conversation in a meaningful less-superficial direction he takes a frigging ad break?
christ if i had to take all my news from the US media I'm afriad this pulpy grey thing inside my skull would completely and utterly atrophy..

Obama seems "weird" to Gregory. Only because Obama has a brain so it confuses poor little brain challenged Gregie?
I love Rachel Maddow! But I just skip the 6PM hour because Gregory is such a TOOL! He has absolutely nothing original to say and always now sounds like he is spewing the RNC bile. It's really sad--I do not understand what happened since his days at the White House when he used to ask some tough questions.
Now it's pander, pander, pander to all the time! As my 5 year old niece says, "Too bad so sad!"
GREGORY Yet, Jay, you know that conservatives (and the media while trying to act impartial) are beginning to make an argument here (using the media as their trusty amplifier) about Obama, (and look at me now repeating rightwing talking points while acting impartial because I pretend only to report not taking sides) that he’s famous for being famous, that he’s a light weight, that he’s presumptuous, that he’s self-absorbed, and that there’s something mysterious about him. (wow "mysterious" thats a good one because it can mean anything from Stalinist to terrorist. And while I'm on the roll I'll just keep going ..) All this talk about whether it’s weirdness or that you can’t quite nail down what his core is all about, is to say there’s question mark above this guy’s head. Until you get that answered, (which you never will because we gonna keep treating Obama as risky and unknown until election day) you have to vote for the guy you know and trust. That’s McCain (Nailed it! Vote McCain!)
gotta say it.
told ya so about Gregory years ago.
total establishment stooge.
gregory is using steriods supplied by bush co. his balls have gotten so small that this can be the only explaination.
and why isn't it fair to point out that daddy wifes bucks McCain is not the "everyman" his press would have you believe. did he wear the italian shoes on his tour of N.O.?
why can repube spend lavishly on themselves but dems get a 24/7 MSM railing for any sign of wealth.
Gregory is an actor (song and dance variety and queer as a football-bat), who plays a reporter on TV. There's no business like show-business.
And I bet he wonders why he was turned down for "Meet the Press".
David Gregory is an establishment plant.
What a tool. David dances with Karl Rove. Doesn't pay attention to facts. He is totally disgusting.
Wonder what he thinks of Arnie Schwarzenegger - CELEBRITY, body builder, actor, no previous political experience and now Governor of California. I'm sure Arnie willl speak at the Repub convention and all the Repugs will drool over him.
Hey stupido David: Sen Obama has fought for civil rights for over 20 years, is a constitutional lawyer, and a Senator. Yeah, he doesn't have any credentials. I don't watch David Gregory, but thanks Crooks and Liars for informing me. Gregory is just a pile of stinkin' steaming #%*#!
Brianna @ 90:
D Gregory MAY have credentials himself, but he has no cred.
When the Right claims they don't know Obama, they mean they haven't found any real dirt on him, everyone knows they've had armies of investigators poring over Obama's history for the past six months and so far they've turned up nothing but a few "guilt by association" claims that made a lot of noise but failed to do any serious damage. So when the actual record fails to conform to the repugs' script, the Repugs simply rewrite the script.
captaincooked @ 38:
I try to avoid TV like the plague, but if we happen to accidentally have one of those shows on with the motherfuckers shouting over each other, my wife and I turn it off immediately. Does a large portion of the U.S. population actually like all this inane yelling? If so, they must be in(s)ane themselves.
nbc GIVE RACHEL HER OWN SHOW BEFORE THE ELECTION... she's one of a kind
And then brings in mr 9/11 for a fact-free unchallenged session!
David Gregory will never be anything more than Karl Rove's dance partner to me.
He has less than zero credibility.
That pretty much goes for 90% of what is on MSNBC, Fox and CNN.
I can't watch for more than 5 minutes. It's has gotten so ridiculous, they are so far off the mark I don't think they even are capable of real journalism anymore.
T.v is no longer the place to look for information....misinformation , yes....real relevant information..... that day is LONG gone.
Living in L.A. we have KTLK. Stephanie Miller in the morning, Thom Hartmann next, then Randi Rhodes until 3:00, and then David Gregory announces that "This is the Rachel Maddow Show" which is a signal to all listeners to tune to the two Classic Rock stations and toggle back and forth to avoid commercials, because we have all learned that Rachel is not going to be in charge. If she were she could turn down the volume of the reich wing tool, David Gregory.
Air America lost their direction when they tried to censor Randi Rhodes' free speech. They wanted her to watch what she said on her own time, off the air. Now Air America wants to dilute Rachel by letting David Gregory run her show. At the same time, they want to call the show the "Rachel Maddow Show".
Air America thinks we are stupid and don't notice? Does KTLK think we are stupid? Do the sponsors know that they are being ripped off? Are they aware of the fact that they are paying to be featured on "The Rachel Maddow Show" and are really supporting the "Mush Mouth Milktoast Show"?
We miss you, Rachel, but the rock and roll is good on FM.
