Leftists can only succeed if good men don’t point at them and laugh. Ridicule, sneers and insults aimed at the right have become a trademark of MSNBC’s commentators, but Rachel Maddow took them to new heights last week providing an opportunity to turn the tables. Proving herself to be agenda-driven and ignorant, Maddow launched an uninformed assault against Alabama Tea Party candidate Les Phillip, a black businessman and Navy veteran who immigrated with his parents from Trinidad in his youth.
Following Meghan McCain’s recent appearance on ABC’s The View, which NRB covered here and here, where the ‘Valley Girl’ equated racism with a comment made at the Tea Party Convention regarding literacy tests for voting, Phillip responded with the statement,
“Ms. McCain has led a life of privilege and couldn’t understand the pressures of living paycheck to paycheck. I respect her father’s service to this country, but she ridicules what she cannot understand.”
Leaping to McCain’s defense, Maddow not only mocked Phillip but alleged he wants,
“To bring back Jim Crow era voting literacy tests that were used for generations in this country to deny black people the right to vote.”

It begins with Reed,Obama, Pelosi and Eldridge!
Anyone who takes that little boy maddow as a news source has more than a few screws loose.
DOn’t have TV in our home and rarely go looking for video of Maddow. So, when I catch up with it every few months it is really like taking a dose of high octane.
Watching this is like WWF. It’s funny, except that most people know that wrasslin is fake.
Why doesn’t this guy, Phillips, run under the GOP banner, rather than split the vote in the November election? Sounds like he could beat Parker??
I believe he will beat Parker in the GOP Primary.
Phillip is a Republican. And a great example of the GOP incorporating the Tea Party ideals. The GOP endorsed Phillip over Parker Griffith. Remember him? The Democrat who switched parties last December after seeing the writing on the wall thanks to Pelosi.
During the Reconstruction period of 1865–1877 federal law provided civil rights protection in the South for "freedmen" — the African Americans who had formerly been slaves. In the 1870s, white Democrats gradually returned to power in southern states, sometimes as a result of elections in which paramilitary groups intimidated opponents, attacking blacks or preventing them from voting. Gubernatorial elections were close and disputed in Louisiana for years, with extreme violence unleashed during the campaign. In 1877 a national compromise to gain southern support in the presidential election resulted in the last of the federal troops being withdrawn from the South. White Democrats had taken back power in every Southern state.[4] The white, Democratic Party Redeemer government that followed the troop withdrawal legislated Jim Crow laws segregating black people from the state's white population.
Hyper-Lesbian Maddow, one of the endless socialist propaganda deceivers on MSNBC “News,” could not tell the truth if her evil life depended on it.
Did she have an Adams Apple Transplant?
And Maddow of course won’t mention that the KKK was the para-military terrorist branch of Maddow’s democrat party.
I once met an idiot who said that Maddow was the ONLY voice of reason on any news network.
She has helped put another nail in her daddy’s reelection run, liberal wife, liberal daughter.. ummm could explain his liberal stands huh??
I sure hope so!
MSNBC: the channel of the angry rich white male lib. Maddow fits right in....
Really? Rachel Maddow is rich? The other descriptions definitely fit.
Proving herself to be agenda-driven and ignorant, Maddow launched an uninformed assault against Alabama Tea Party candidate Les Phillip, a black businessman and Navy veteran who immigrated with his parents from Trinidad in his youth.

I respect her father's service to this country, but she ridicules what she cannot understand."She shouldn't be fired -- she should never have been hired in the first place. She's just another libelous leftwing media shill.
