Rachel Maddow on Leno: Limbaugh Should Back Socialism Once It's Enacted

In a nice stroke of NBC corporate synergy, radical-left MSNBC host Rachel Maddow appeared Tuesday night on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and when the topic turned to Rush Limbaugh, Maddow insisted that it’s one thing for Rush to oppose Obama’s socialist agenda before it passes, but once it becomes law, he should salute and get behind it

(Snip)

This is not the approach Maddow took to the Iraq war: that she opposed it, but it became government policy, so she rooted for it to succeed. Take Maddow on Countdown with Keith Olbermann on September 13, 2007. She expects Limbaugh to support Obama, but she wasn’t expected to root for President Bush

She has an Adams apple the size of a grapefruit. More testosterone than an old E. German woman shot putter.

[DoughtyOne]

I’m up when Leno is on. I wouldn’t mind tuning if if the show has half-way decent.

[Hardastarboard]

Ah, yes. A citizen of the island nation of Lesbos.

I forgot to add that if Al Franken didn't have his Senate campaign, MSNBC would have brought him in. His continual financial double dealings when he was on the radio even had liberals angry. Randi Rhodes was too unstable on and off air to be reliable. MSNBC decided they needed a leftist host for some reason and went with their 3rd choice ( Maddow ) the least sucky of the bunch. She had the highest ratings of the remaining field of leftists.

New Aerosmith song for the occasion:

“Lady looks like a dude”

[Doctor Raoul]

Is that some satire of WWJD she’s wearing? The little hater...

>>>> Now we’re supposed to give Socialism a chance? <<<<<

Which reminds me that even the idiot leftists who call C-SPAN knew long in advance of Nov 4 that Zer0 stood for Socialism with a capital “S”.

I recall actually hearing more than one say “We’ve given capitalism a chance, and even though it looks like Socialism, now we need to give the other way a chance.”

Yep. That’s what many said. Literally.

On a stack of Bibles.

I have never understood the mindset of the females who, when they discovered they were never going to be beautiful women, decided to spend the rest of their lives looking like really ugly men. And I really don’t understand the mindset of the women who want to date them!

[A_Former_Democrat]

Ugly is as ugly does.

[jennyjenny]

THAT thing called Rush creepy?

[skully]

In celebration of the slide from the greatness of free market capitalism to the banal mediocrity of socialism. I will show my support for our Overlord by wiping my ass with pages from Das Kapital. The papyrus from the Koran was chafing me anyway.

PS. I didn't know Pat was played by Rachel Maddow??

[lonestar]

thanks

[skully]

What is this person’s claim to fame?

It looks like Pat.

[skully]

Maddow is a masculine version of Keith Olbermann.

Probably better hung then he is too.

[jennyjenny]

So I guess she’s okay with the way the vote turned on Prop. 8?

[JSDude1]

Why? Why should Rush Limbaugh suddenly embrace Obama’s socialist agenda..(so there is no more opposition once it fails..)? IDIOT LIB.

[Trueblackman]

Well by 1945, we saw what the embracing of Socialism got the German People.

[Jim Scott]

I admit to not knowing or caring who Rachel Maddow is. Thus, her opinion is totally irrelevant to me (and millions of other Americans).

These dopey lefties that spent the last 8 years trashing President Bush and opposing everything he tried to do, especially the war in Iraq, but now expect conservatives to walk in lock step with socialism and their Exalted Leader, Barack Hussein Obama, are screwy. They're drunk with power and assume their socialist party will be in power permanently. They are quite mistaken.

Democrat overreaching will eventually sink them and with Obama's fumbling of the economy and his insane policies, he'll be Jimmy Carter squared, within the year. I can't wait because I want the president to fail.

[NavyCanDo]

The libs have been throwing the “S” word around allot lately. Like it was no big deal. “America could use a little socialism”, they are saying. I have heard this on the radio and from liberals in my own office.

[SteamShovel]

It looks like Pat.

She looks like Elvis with that sneer....
