she was so pissed off that Ridge didn’t say Bush ordered them to raise the threat level.....

Oh by the way, I wonder if SOB Chris Matthews will correct the record, he did 2 shows leading off with the Ridge story last week...

Anyone Else See MSNBC's Maddow Get Pwned By Ridge Tonight?

Was she pawned, owned, or both?

Wow. If you’re getting clowned by Tom Freaking Ridge, it’s time for you to get out of the business.

Rachel Mancow is a true loon. I turn on his show every so often just to see what the nuts are foaming about. He’s an imbecile’s imbecile. I might have to DVR this interview just to watch Ridge man-slap Mancow.

Does anyone know if Ridge actually said what is attributed to him in his book - that the threat level was raised out of political expediency? Has that actually come from Ridge, or was that a preview or leak from his book?

It's hard to believe that claim would be published, and then he'd try to walk it back. Hopefully this Maddow/Ridge interview makes it's way to YouTube.

This is an update to an old but good Karl Rove trick

Rove's version was to get some backwater Republican to make an outrageous commercial that is true but somewhat over the top. You float this video up to the network, engendering all of the requisite left/msm outrage. It gets played over and over and over and over

The national party stays quiet until the controversy's died down, then they come out and disown it, vociferously. This runs for several news cycles, and the original ad gets played again and again..

Then you have an out-of-the-limelight Republican, like Newt, come out and disagree with the party, vociferously. This, too, runs for several news cycles, and the original ad gets played again and again.

Them you have Newt come on some lefty show and change his mind. This runs for several news cycles, and the original ad gets played again and again.

Pretty soon the entire country has seen the ad and agrees with it.

Mission accomplished.

I think some of this is what Ridge is up to. He is totally and completely playing the media. He's pointing out that Bush and his people were diligent and overly cautious that their work be for the good of the people and could in no way be interpreted as political.

Me? I think this whole thing would be hilarious if anyone else were in the WHite House.

The word ‘homeland’ is creepy to her? Ridge: “Read the book not the dust jacket.” LOL!

She looks like that character named “Pat” that was on “Saturday Night Live” years ago, you couldn’t tell if it was a man or woman.

It was funny how she quickly got all her little points in at the end of the interview, all the points she had planned to make through the interview (and hoped Ridge would be agreeing with them)but she found he wasn't on the page she thought he was on.

I noticed she's on at 9 pm. Hannity must be blowing her away. This video is the first time I've ever watched her show.

Well... Maddow did not get what she wanted from Ridge, but, I think she handled it fairly well and was civil.

There was no there , there. She could not get any traction on her agenda, but, Pwned? Nope, not in my opinion.I have seen the same thing happen to conservative talk show hosts too.

As I have posted before, Maddow is a very attractive young man and occupies all of my homosexual fantasies.

That’s something to do with mental, or masturbation or... both?
