Maddow On Palin’s New Ad: She’s Trying To ‘Up Her Fees For The Bowling Conventions Of America’

video
» 179 comments

Every time Rachel Maddow is on Meet the Press I am puzzled that no one has given her a Sunday morning show of her own. Not that her regular MSNBC show isn’t great. But watching her showcase her ‘serious journalist’ chops makes for compelling, and necessary, TV. Not to mention her short exchange (confrontation?) with Harold Ford today over tax cuts he once proposed for New York State showed her to be more willing to get in guest’s faces than David Gregory, which, suffice to say, is a refreshing change.

Fortunately, MTP devoted some “take two” time after the show to talk to Maddow further about her recent trip to Afghanistan as well as her views on everyone’s favorite speculative topic: Sarah Palin for President.

Earlier on on the regular show Maddow had remarked that the aspect of her visit to Afghanistan that had struck her the most was “how humbling it is to be there alongside U.S. troops that are doing such unbelievably difficult work and who are such professionals. Honestly, not to be sappy, but that’s the first thing.” The second was the heat. Afterwards she had this to say about the Catch-22 situation America currently finds itself in:

It really became clear to me that there is this transactional cost of us staying. Every additional week that we stay we are affecting Afghanistan with our presence, even in ways we’re not trying to. All of that money goes to all of the places you’d expect it to go to in a place that has a really broken civil society…[At times] it is our very presence that it undermining our purpose.

As for Sarah Palin’s ‘Mama Grizzlies‘ web video, Maddow thinks Palin is merely trying to “up her fees for the bowling conventions of America.”

“It’s one thing to have a candidates who looks like what you want to look like, it’s another to have a candidate that stands for what you want to stand for.”

She makes some good points to back this up. Watch below.

    By attacking Palin Maddow is just trying to ‘Up Her Fees For The ~Gay Pride~ Parades Of America’.

    This is the best bowling convention of all time:

    So Rachel, whom do you suppose a majority of Americans would feel at ease with, comfortable with, and agree with most of the time, a long married mother of 5 who advocates personal responsibility or a chardonnay sipping lesbian socialist with a holier than thou attitude?

    And, sure, Rachel is the “elitist.” Isn’t it Rachel who has a humble house in western mass while Sarah Palin has a rider that demands 1st class tickets for her million-dollar speaking engagements?

    Who was it who spent $150,000 on clothing and make-up at stores such as Saks Fith Avenue before the campain????

    Sarah Palin,

    Who looks like she shops at Ross for less?

    Rachel Maddow.

    Just because she happens to be smart, doesn’t make Maddow “elitist.”

    With that so, are we supposed to be impressed, just because some way Far Left leaning institution give awards & ~degrees~ to people with an identical mindset, because they have learned to swallow & then regurgitate Leftist dogma on cue?

    Naw. That doesn’t impress me one bit.

    And, it doesn’t impress anyone else anymore, either. Except for those few people (20%) that are still wrapped up in a time warp, of the already proven failed Leftist dogma.

    That’s precisely right. She looks down her nose at such mundane activities favored by the “simple” people. She exudes condescension. Kinda like her saviour was comparing his bowling skills to retarded kids…just has a tinge of “I’m sooooo much better than you little people”.

  • writer

    shoot, just because many people bought the media’s love affair and voted for Obama, I hardly think the mid-west could be categorized as extreme far left. That’s what Maddow and MSNBC represent, and that’s why their ratings are so low. The majority of Americans are not far left.

    No, she must:

    - Have sold her daughter into slavery (Exodus 21:7)
    - Not contact with women when they have their periods (Lev 15:19-24)
    - Posses slaves from neighboring Mexico or Canada (Lev. 25:44)
    - Puts people to death who work on the Sabbath (Exodus 35:2)
    - Never eat shellfish (Lev 11:10)
    - If she wears glasses, not approach the altar of God (Lev 21:20)
    - Not hang around men who shave, unless it’s to stone them (Lev 19:27)
    - Not plant two different crops in the same field or wear garments made of two different kinds of thread (Lev 19:19)
    - Stone to death people who say “goddammit” (Lev 24:10-16)

    The character assassination tactics, smears, and down right atrocious behavior
    from Maddow & All Lefties, has gotten out of control.
    It doesn’t anger me, it just reminds me how important it is to
    get these low lifes out of power, for generations to come.

    To most of our (R’s) side, it looks like a cluster of fools,w/a mental disorder,
    much like a nutcase banging his head

    Sarah Palin’s Retarded Platform: More Trigs!
    Posted by Charles Smith Humor

    Today, Sarah Palin resigned as Governor of Alaska. While many are speculating about her motives, a section of her announcement makes it crystal clear: She wants to make a difference by promoting mental handicaps, increasing the number of voters who will support her retarded platform!

    During her speech, Palin mentioned that her family was a major factor in her decision to leave the position of Governor. She specifically mentioned the horrid strain on her family resulting from a local blogger Photoshopping a local conservative talk-show’s face in place of her retarded son Trig’s in a picture of Palin and Trig.

    Yes, here is the very image that caused Palin to resign!

  • lazzzlo

    I will give credit to where credit is due…she went to Afghanistan to try to get a personal sense of topics that she covers.

    A lot of media types on both sides of the spectrum could learn a lesson this way. I personally think that Michael Yon had some really good posts that now represent a void since he almost lost his embed credentials…(looks like he got them back)…http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2542126/posts

    2 1/2 points…

    1. “It really became clear to me that there is this transactional cost of us staying. Every additional week that we stay we are affecting Afghanistan with our presence, even in ways we’re not trying to. All of that money goes to all of the places you’d expect it to go to in a place that has a really broken civil society…[At times] it is our very presence that it undermining our purpose.” per Maddow.

    That is a true but naive statement. We prop up Karzai and effectively enable the drug trade that empowers the Afghan warlords so we can get footholds outside of Kandahār to fight the Taliban…sometimes in conjunction with Pakistan. <– That is a no-win situation.

    2. Even as a publicity "stunt', by going to Afghanistan and talking with the troops, wearing a burqa while shopping…etc, she is informing herself that this is a real war zone which has direct and dire consequences…not the least of which…the temperature is extreme.

    All good…fact finding mission and I'm sure she'll be happy to come back to the United States.

    1/2. Why insult bowlers? That whole line completely dis-enfranchises (that can't possibly be a word) one segment of society that bowls and pits (I'm assuming) those that bowl versus that don't dignify that hobby.

    Maddow is a geek and she goes to like-minded conventions. I was disappointed in that particular phrase. I wonder if she asked the soldiers in Afghanistan if they like to bowl?

    Clearly Maddow is going to have to dumb down her language for the typical tea-bagger. And Comic, if I go to the doctor, he or she had better have a piece of paper on the wall that says “MD.” So, those pieces of paper matter, except perhaps to those that don’t have them. Now, I”m willing to admit that there are tea-baggers who own pieces of paper. Take languihoooooie for instance; he owns a piece of paper that says “Shit for Brains” and dammit, he’s earned it.

    Palin didn’t spend that kind of money for clothes, it was spent for her by the campaign and after the story broke in Politico some of the people in the campaign decided to throw her under the bus by lying to national publications.

    On the afternoon of Aug. 29, 2008, Ms. Kline fielded a surprise phone call: Was she available to dress Sarah Palin for the Republican National Convention, which was to begin three days later on Labor Day?

    “It took a moment to register,” she said. “Then of course I said yes.”

    In other circumstances, Ms. Kline said, she could have bought Ms. Palin’s wardrobe for far below retail through her relationships with designers. But it was the Friday of a holiday weekend and “there wasn’t a person around,” she said. “The only avenue was retail, straight retail.”

    She set to work in New York, buying elegant pieces at Saks Fifth Avenue and Barneys. When she left for the convention Labor Day morning, she had “a pretty decent amount of clothing to choose from,” she said.”

    Haha this is all pretty ridiculous…

    1) Right Wing nuts, Sarah Palin was a guest speaker at an actual bowler’s convention in June… look it up and stop being stupid…

    2) If you really have a problem with credentials your an idiot. If I hear another person say a piece of paper doesn’t mean anything I’m going to flip out. How are you going to sit here and bring your fingers to type these lies. If thats true make sure to tell your children that college is for idiots and that if they ever get a degree, whether it be trade school, bachelors, masters, phd, etc., that they wasted YOUR money. I don’t know where we got this hatred for smart people/intellectuals, but I truly think it’s counterproductive to society. If you’d ask for your teachers, doctors, etc, to have proper certification, you should probably take a look at the credentials of the other people that influence your life, like talk show hosts, politicians, and many others.

    3) It really bothers me that people would completely dismiss the credentials of a person based on their sexual orientation, and furthermore, would go on the internet and spew hatred about these people and think it’s ok. If that’s your personal view, fine, don’t look like an idiot in front of mixed company though, it’s unbecoming. We are obviously a society that hasn’t made many of the “strides” that so many people would like to think that we have.

The report, which also shows Palin’s largest-ever round of donations to candidates, indicates that for the first time since the 2008 campaign she has a political operation on a scale befitting someone considering a presidential run.

    I remember the Left saying the exact same things about Ronald Reagan, under very similar conditions.

    How’d that bluff work out for all you mindless Leftist’?

    I’m happy to remind you.

    During the 1976 campaign, times were pretty hard & the Left leaning ~Media~, & all the other Leftist support groups, from the unions to the most prestigious universities, claimed Jimmy Carter was “the smartest person to ever run for the presidency“, & that he could solve our problems.

    I got sucked into all that nonsensical hype, & cast my vote for Jimmy Carter.

    And after Carter won, they all said Jimmy Carter was “the smartest person to ever win the presidency”.

    But then Carter’s worthless Utopian policies kicked in, & everything got worse instead of better.

    So far, this sounds oddly very familiar, doesn’t it?

    In 1980, Ronald Reagan won the presidency in a 44 state landslide, despite being endlessly slammed for months by the Left leaning ~Media~, & all the other Leftist support groups, from the unions to the most prestigious universities, that all still claimed Jimmy Carter was “the smartest person to ever win the presidency“.

    In 1984, Ronald Reagan won the presidency with a 49 state landslide, despite being endlessly slammed for months by the Left leaning ~Media~, & all the other Leftist support groups, from the unions to the most prestigious universities, that all claimed that Walter Mondale was “the smartest person to ever run for the presidency“.

    So, just keep it all up, Lefty’s.

    If we’re going to be able to save our country from your latest Leftist “smartest person to ever run for, & win the presidency“, we need your help again.

    It is very telling that people who like Sarah Palin, for whatever reason, feel it necessary to defend her from every little perceived slight. Don’t you trust Mama Grizzley to stand up for herself? The truth is, it DID take her 6 years and a bunch of schools to get a degree in whatever her major was. The truth is, she WAS pregnant when she married, and if you are putting yourself on the conservative Christian pedestal, that matters (particularly when your daughter follows in your footsteps.) The truth is, she had a lot of problems in Wasilla, and left the town in debt, as she did Alaska. The truth is, she is not interested in truth, and admits that she can’t be bothered with facts. I don’t care how capable you think she is, a person who cannot be bothered to learn FACTS about issues cannot be put into a position of power, ever.
    It is important that Obama has a law degree and that Maddow is a qualified, intelligent journalist. People who continue their educations are better thinkers, are more aware of the consequences of a country’s decisions on people, and will make reasoned, not emotional, decisions. That is who I want in the White House…someone who thinks before he or she acts. I am afraid the Palins would be a bit quick on the nuclear trigger, and end it all.

    PS Tex, yes I’ve read Wealth of Nations…

    Your ideal of what should go on today in America is outdated and doesn’t work. The simple fact that you could bring up a name like Adam Smith, which probably means you are a stern believer in the “free market”, or laissez-faire economics, means you don’t even have a grasp on the economic situation in which we live today. The capitalism that we’ve come to love as Americans has many principles that are completely against the notions of economist like Smith, or Locke. For a better look at our economy today go read of John Maynard Keynes. His approach is a little closer to what we have and should use today. I have my solutions and my own thoughts. You live in the past and sell your ignorant view of a small “r” republican society you poor excuse for an “informed” citizen…

    It will be hard to top this post-of-the-week for sheer dumbassery.

    But I’m sure the foxsuckers will try..

    I just love the way the RWers come out and throw out some ignorant comment and then tuck their tail and run back under the rock they slithered out from under. Good night all.

    Wow, the characters from “People of Walmart” use this board to flame anybody who dares to criticize their favorite Mama Grizzly. Scary.

    Someone above asked about the list of contributors to SarahPAC, which is public information, listed in the link below:

    No you are the idiot by being a fucking hypocrite. Several of your right wing buddies on this blog used ad hominem attacks on Rachel because of her sexual orientation! It’s in black and white. Can’t YOU read? That’s why Karl mocked you!

    “Every time Rachel Maddow is on Meet the Press I am puzzled that no one has given her a Sunday morning show of her own.”

    This is why Maddow doesn’t have a morning show: “Palin is merely trying to up her fees for the bowling conventions of America.”

    She’s a nasty, snarky partisan who is lucky to scrape up 1M viewers a night.

    As for the attacks directed at Maddow, I didn’t read them all, and am not particularly fond of those kinds of comments, but seriously, when Maddow makes snarky rude statements like that, she sets the stage.

    She and MSNBC have called Palin a liar, an idiot, stupid, a know nothing, frightening, a professional ignorant, a tool, an imbecile, a bad mother, all american nobody, idiot woman, phony idiot, coward, poster girl for racism, an insult to women….those are just the insults I can remember off the top of my head.

    And it’s particularly funny to read all those who are offended on here, after all the nasty, nasty comments directed at Pailn.

    So, that said, I’m not going to get all torn up about people insulting Maddow after all the crap and snark she and her fellow msnbc’ers (and Palin haters here) have lobbed at Palin. I have read far worse comments directed at Palin and her supporters on here from commenter’s then anything I read in the thread above about Maddow.

  • ClearPoint

    Maddow is one weird lady that I would certainly tell my kids to stay away from. Maddow is the same moron who tried to smear Palin as a racist by linking her to some random dude who had no relation to her. I actually felt like smacking her that’s how stupid she sounded when she tried to pull that smear on Palin.

    When someone makes homophobic comments like seen here it has NOTHING to do with Maddow.
    Bigoted remarks like that are directed at the whole Gay community.

    It’s the same as calling people nigger.

    “Sarah Palin calls Barack Obama ‘backasswards’ on Twitter”

    I’m waiting for all the teatards who were outraged by Obama and Biden’s use of a form of that same word to be equally outraged now.

    Yep, I’m waiting….

  • TfT

    BFD once again puts Palin on the same plane as Obama/Biden. Palin is a private citizen, and comparing her “backasswards” with “kick-ass” and “asshole” as stated by the sitting P and VP is absurd.

    Glynnis – Rachel’s statement regarding Palin and bowling conventions just shows what a clymer Rachel is. Her elitism makes her popular with the other lefty elites in this country, but most of us snear at that kind of remark. It just makes Rachel appear to be looking down on middle america. You can claim her brilliant, but in reality, she is nothing but another MSNBC tool for the DNC. Brilliant? I don’t think so….filled with venom for middle america…yup. That’s Rachel.

    Uh, no it’s not. Ask a person of color.

    The gay community (at least the radical elements of it) are trying desperately to equate their “plight” with that of the civil rights movement, and most thinking people of ANY pigmentation find that clearly insulting.

    Levi told us that Sarah was going to retire as governor so that she could cash in, and she has.

    While you’re waiting (and it may be an awfully long time before your imaginary friends return) you might want to reread that tweet.

    Maddow is pathetic. She reeks with jealousy of Gorgeous Gov. Palin’s all-American beauty.

    Well, it’s similar in the sense that the LGBTQ community have been traditionally treated as second-class citizens. This attitude that they should be treated as second-class citizens is evidenced by the bigoted and juvenile remarks made by some people in this comment thread.

    Rachel shines. Eloquent and fact filled fun.

  • Fox News: We proudly pander to Teabaggers

    “, when Maddow makes snarky rude statements like that, she sets the stage.”

    That is like saying when women wear suggestive clothing they deserve to be rape.

    This thread illustrates why we need hate crime laws in this country. Tea partiers are every bit as homophobic as they are racist as they are bigoted.

  • sarainitaly

    yes, teabagger, it is JUST like that!

    No, it’s not. It’s about civility. She isn’t civil towards Palin, and in turn, people are not civil back.

    Just like when I post something, and someone like you or King respond to me (King always irrelevantly and off topic) like total jerks, I end up responding back, equally as rude.

    Do unto others as you would have others do unto you, and all that.

    “Tea partiers are every bit as homophobic as they are racist as they are bigoted.” – I have seen plenty of racist and bigoted lefties on here.
