Given the abundance of options at the network, it's saying something to name Martin Bashir as the most noisome of MSNBC hosts. But so he is, in my book.
Witness the low stunt Bashir pulled to open his show today, on the afternoon of the South Carolina primary. Bashir superimposed photos of the Republican candidates in front of a Confederate flag image. Lest their be any doubt as to the message Bashir meant to send, the screen graphic read "Rebel Yell." Oh those racist Republicans.

Only if you expect any kind of health care after age 70.
The Confederates and the KKK were all democrats, as this evil asshole knows well.
I suspect that he did.
You watch MSNBC? You must be a masochist.
Sometimes I can barely stand FOX - but what else is there for news?
.
In fairness, we need him to be superimposed in front of Pakistani and British flags. Creepy obsessed foreigners. It’s like we are the hot cheerleader, and they are the creepy old guy next door with our pics all over their walls, thinking they know all about us,,,And we don’t know they even exist.
They are so scared...they are acting like great we can beat Newt
if so then why the last minute hail Mary to try to torpedo him?
most pathetic network...FOX news...what bitches
(Martha...you are forgiven..for anything...just wear black little sweaters and pencil skirts and heels..thank you)

Not making making me upset. I like it actually.
LOL!
Ok, I appreciate that. :-)
You are wrong to paint the Confederacy and post-war south as somehow liberal because we were Democratic. True the south was historically Democratic, but that was when the Democratic party was THE consertvative party. Slavery was practiced all across the US and only after industrialism replaced the need for intensive labor that “holier than thou”, intrusive, abolitionists decided to impose their new found opposition to slavery on the southern states. The north and non-slave states were, however, not some utopia for blacks, as racism was a cultural trend everywhere.
The “old” southern Democratic party, before it was infested by liberalism, was THE party of states rights and linmited federal government. That changed later in the 20th century, but here in the south we have always been conservative- even when we were Democrats. When the party went left, we rejected it and from then on have been the backbone of conservative, GOP, politics. Every conservative presidential candidate has started with a “southern strategy”.
Not without a $hitload of Viagra.
I, for one, am proud of my southern heritage
Me too. And my colonial heritage as well.
Well said; and you’ll like this:
Conservative coalition
“In the United States, the conservative coalition was an unofficial Congressional coalition bringing together the conservative majority of the Republican Party and the conservative, mostly Southern, wing of the Democratic Party. It was dominant in Congress from 1937 to 1963 and remained a political force until the mid 1980s, eventually dying out in the 1990s...”

Thanks. I agree that they have mostly “died off”, but conservatism had always been a southern staple even when it had a D by its name.
Democrats are always Democrats...even old-time Southern Democrats are mere Democrats. From the beginning they were populist/socialist wealth redistributors and advocated for their states feeding from the federal trough...Richard Russell, Robert Byrd, Lyndon Johnson, Howell Heflin, Herman Talmadge, Huey Long and countless other charlatans, buying votes and wielding power with taxpayer money for decades upon decades.
