The foot-in-mouth Contessa (Brewer)
National Review ^ | 07/25/2011 | Jay Nordlinger

Posted on 07/25/2011 7:44:28 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

Contessa Brewer, the anchorwoman for MSNBC, is a piece of work. (Beautiful name, by the way: Contessa Brewer.) I’ve never seen her. But I’ve followed her career via the printed press. She’s the one who said, “There are questions about whether this has racial overtones.” She was talking about a pro-gun rally outside a hall where President Obama was giving a speech. “I mean, here you have a man of color in the presidency and white people showing up with guns.”

Her network was showing a man packing heat. They were showing just the middle of his body. Turned out the man was black. Whoops. “White people showing up with guns.”

Speaking of La Contessa and race: She introduced Jesse Jackson as the Rev. Al Sharpton. If a conservative had mixed them up — we would never be hearing the end of it. Ever.

And the latest? As I understand it, she was trying to school a congressman, Mo Brooks (R., Ala.), in economics. She told him that, without bailouts, the country would be in a “depression.” Brooks said he disagreed. Brewer asked whether he had a degree in economics. (A little sniffy, don’t you think?) The congressman said, “Yes, ma’am, I do. Highest honors.”

Whoops again. Besides, what does having a degree in economics have to do with anything? Economists disagree with one another all the time, and they all have degrees in economics.

Contessa’s a nice name? It’s a stupid name along with Tiffany and other crazy names. Maybe I’ll adopt a kid and name her “Czarina.” That’s pretty, isn’t it?

She’s on msnbc. They admit they’re liberal. I was hoping this would change when Comcast took over. Apparently not since the government is allowing Comcast to be a monopoly.

Just what typically works at MSNBC and the variations on that alphabetical scheme ... a liar, a boldfaced, lying enemy of We The People, a propaganda whore for the criminal enterprise. May be pretty on the outside, but it is ugly and deceitful all the way through.

I just saw her on the weather channel and Al made a quip and she didn’t get it and wasn’t smart enough to pretend that she did. OTOH, it wasn’t that funny.

She was an Imus girl until he dissed her in that stadium.

Felt sorry for her then. Turned out Imus was right, for once.

She’s an idiot.

Just goes to show you, for financial success, it’s better to be good looking than talented.

“My gay friends all think Contessa Brewer is FABULOUS! Now that we’ve settled that, WHO WANTS A SCONE?! Or should I say, who DOESN’T want a scone?”

(Followed by nervous laughter, awkward slurping sound.)

She is a pretty woman, but her IQ is lower than her age. She suffers from “Converse in the mouth” disease...(aka Foot-in the mouth disease.)

The members of the entertainment industry, Hollywood, network news, MSNBC, etc. live in left wing bubbles. They only hear and experience things talked about by the Kos Kids, Democratic Underground, the DNC, etc. The World outside New York, D.C. and the left Coast just doesn't exist to them. They don;t know. They are ignorant. Worst of all, they don't respect people outside their bubble and don;t care what they think.

The problem for us is, the people in the bubble are the one's that the media executives put on the air and on the cable for national consumption. The media executives are lazy greedy bastards that take the easy way to wealth and are contributing significantly to our countries downfall.

If you think about it Conterssa Brewer and Barack Obama have about the same skill set.
