Rachel Maddow strikes again.  Even if MSNBC’s viewership dropped to three people plus Rachel Maddow’s DVR’ing of herself, it would still bother me that anyone spouts this racially divisive garbage.

The crux of her argument is that conservative politicians (and of course now Fox News) create a fear of minorities among stupid, racist white people who are evidently so prevalent in this country as to create a powerful political base.  She asserts that this group of stupid white racists have been tricked into believing that civil rights are a zero sum equation, and that whites lose civil rights when equal treatment is given to minorities.

Of course she does not seem to grasp the irony of her argument.  “You must hate and fear the conservative racists who are using the politics of hatred and fear to manipulate the people!”.  Right.  In any case this glimpse into the dark abyss of racial propaganda is arguably worth watching for educational purposes.

Just listened to Howard Dean on Rachel Maddow’s show. His explanation for a Brown win? Republicans don’t think Obama has delivered enough change.

It’s pretty clear that people are upset by what’s going on in Washington. They don’t like the partisanship, they don’t like the bickering. They don’t I think really see the kind of change they were hoping to get. I had a number of people, Republicans, who had voted for the president the last time around and they are really looking for some real change. I think the American people want real change and they haven’t seen that yet.

Can a statement contain so many contradictions that it actually becomes true?

UPDATE: Victory. The wheels are coming off at MSNBC. I encourage you to watch.

Another pop-up video from Mainstream News Bellowed Comically (MSNBC).

Frank Schaefer, author of “Crazy for God,” decries the use of Nazi allusions among a handful of protesters, then cannot resist employing his own Nazi allusion. Another reason the Rachel Maddow Show is the second funniest show on TV (after Countdown with Keith Olbermann).
