Countdown - Making Light of Failure and Ferraro's Comments

[gombis666]

I would love it if Rachel applied some objectivity to Obama. 

[DemocratAlvinGreene]

No, I'm not a plant!

[slizzler1]

Ferraro was always a grouchy whiner - go check her history yourself -she griped and cried about stupidity for many years - it shows on her face she's never been a content person - bitching and whining at everything inconsequential.

Maddow is a real woman -secure about herself as a person. Crybabies like Ferraro can never admit how weasly they are in nature and blame others for their glaring inadequacies and social skills.

[randyguitarman13]

Tim Russert was at that event.

[ParkerAllen2]

Rachel Maddow is quickly becoming my favorite commentator.

[kokomormon]

rachel you are of fierce intellect and demeanor; congratulations and may you continue to enlighten the picture.  take care rachel.

[shirazhound]

Olbermann and Maddow are great. Rachel's show on Air American Radio is very good!

The Nation Magazine is terrific and also--- The Young Turks ( you can get the first hour on Itunes ) VERY GOOD

[UGOTDAJACK]

George Bush should be in jail. POINT BLANK PERIOD!!!

[vhsdream]

RIGHT!?!!!!

[starion007]

That Rachel Bitch is retarted!!!! And her views are always skewed...

[westvirginiaone]

Thank you Rachel, and Keith You have rare courage these days so state the truth. PEACE!

[athought23]

I absolutely agree with you. Considering what we normally get Rachel and keith are a breathe of fresh air.

[xleax]

Keith Olbermann a breath of fresh air? for having no sense of humor?

[kkaaarl]

It's tragic to see such hacks informing the opinion of the American people, but such is the state of cable news: a host gets an hour every day to 1) pander to one constituency or another and 2) say outlandish things. Since these are all most viewers have the patience for, they are the only way for the host to get the ratings he needs to stay on the air. In the meantime, all rational discussion and/or presentation of real journalistic findings fall by the wayside. Demand more.

[truthlovver]

well said, kkaaarl, olbermann is an irresponsible pig, and maddow is pro-obama, as are most people in msnbc and cnn, the only two tv networks i ever see.

[yk2bad]

All of Billarys' dirty dealings, are NOT cute- from Arab Money now, back to Whitewater when they first started.

The Clintons need to be defeated this time. They need a slap in the face. This election has gotten disgusting, because of her kitchen sink strategy.

I am glad that black America, is having a chance to see how the Democrats, feel about race and have felt about race all this time!

Ferraro, is just saying what the corporate elites in the Democratic have been doing for years.

[truthlovver]

you are wrong in almost everything you write, but i will focus on just one error: pro-Clinton Democrats are not disgusted with Obama because he's black, they're disgusted with him because he is a nobody that has managed to rally the support of the fools that constitute the majority of the Democrats and the American public more broadly. Are you willing to wake up and smell the coffee, chump?

[fishbonebuba]

I must respectfully disagree with you, tl. Pro-Clinton Dems are disgusted with Obama because Clinton has run a gutter campaign, smearing him at every opportunity, and they believe she's a genuine person. You are a believer. I respect that, but I must recommend you don't hide your eyes from the mendacious campaign run by Hillary Clinton and Mark Penn.

[julexcite]

nice president and rachel needs dick

[boochy33]

need dick? she has a dick. and its bigger than olbermanns pussy.

[truthlovver]

lol. bigger than olbermann's pussy. i'm not sure about that. for sure, though, olbermann has the biggest asshole, oops, i mean is the biggest asshole.

[Corporations8MyBaby]

On Rachel's show she starts out every broadcast with *News From Iraq and Life During War Time...* she is an expert on U.S. Military policy and she wears a thorny crown for the troops that always kicks me in the gut too. I predict that in the year to come we will here here move the subject to our troops more and more. The vapid media needs a shot of truth and Rachel's becoming the go-to-gal for what matters.

[kevjo66]

This bull dike thinks she's funny?

[Corporations8MyBaby]

You think THAT is a *bulldyke* Kev? How many lesbians have you been around? Or maybe that last guy that knocked you off your bar stool at Mo's wasn't really a guy and you just didn't catch that. Rachel is brilliant and beautiful & if you can't see it, well that speaks more about you KEVSTER.

[ThatsmyYokoOno]

I agree Rachel. On a sliding scale of "funny" this was hilarious and gets alot of leeway but on the same scale "let's get Barack a pillow and make him comfortable" was a laugh riot. In politics one mans funny is another man's sore loserism (Keith,that's you)

[paerarru]

Yes, go home, go home you ignorant self-serving disgrace. He gives all Americans a bad name. Go home -already-.

[angelinakitty]

i didnt think i could hate bushitler more than i already do, but this is just absolutely disgusting. and the people that laugh with him are scum. joking about KATRINA AND SCOOTER LIBBY. and cheneys subpoenas. oh yes, it must be so easy for you bushitler to have no guilt or shame about murdering millions of americans and iraquis in an illegal war for money for THE ELITE YOU SERVE.may you touch the cold cold slabs of prison very soon. because that is where you belong.

you are pure EVIL

[beteck123]

But what did this nation really expected voting someone call BUSH as president. yet we claim to be a majority christian nation. In christianity,it is said that your name can condem you.this is particularly true with bush and dick. we now need Barack(Blessing).

[youngdrodeau]

Olbermann had to let out a deep breathe @ 5:23

after she said "..Black men are so priveliged in America" LOLOLOL

[feelnu]

Below Comments from Geraldine Ferraro during the presidential race in 1988.

"If Jesse Jackson were not black, he wouldn't be in the race," she said.

Really.

The cite is an April 15, 1988 Washington Post story (byline: Howard Kurtz), available only on Nexis.

[ecertal]

Wow!!!!!! They are laughing because while their pockets are getting fat, out pockets are getting slimmerr. WHile we are not united on the streets, they are united on thier agenda: TO put us down..Do I sense a "take back our government" movement happening

[VenicDred]

The Republicans just laugh at the American public.

They are above the law.

It's disgusting.

And to make a song about getting out of legal trouble is sick.

No shame.

[colster4life]

I like Rachel Maddow but does she have to be on the show practically every night?

[erdanidi]

She's one of the smartest political minds out there. She has a PHD in political science and she's extremely outspoken. I wish they had more people on like her!

[beteck123]

Rachel Maddow doesnt just have a PHD,but she has a PHD from Oxford University. Thats worth specifying. A PHD from Oxford is not the same as some PHD from a around the corner University

[ThatsmyYokoOno]

KO-"Of the three candidates who is the least likely to participate in this sort of insiding joking about issues that,you know,have destroyed American lives" 4:46. Pause and look at KO's smug look. And she just gives that a pass. Her PHd must be affirmitive action based unless personal character and fairness do not matter at Oxford anymore.

[ThatsmyYokoOno]

Also the implication in her answer and in Keiths response that John McCain would be the one of the three that would participate in this joking was obvious. Yes Hillary is one of those three. She would never do such a thing. But see how Keith is attacking Hillary over Gerry Ferraros' statements. The obvious thing here is that nothing is far left enough for this gangly nerd who cannot get enough revenge on the world. KO is an emperor without clothing. Unloved and patronised in his own workplace.

[bebop54]

RON PAUL ....WRITE HIM IN !!!!!!!!!!

[undecidedguy]

It's almost a guaranteed loss for the democrats in November, no matter who becomes their nominee. Their party is virtually split. Blacks against whites, whites against blacks, women against men, rich against poor, popular vote against super delegates, and young against old. The fact is, neither Hillary nor Obama can gain enough delegates to win the nomination fairly. You guys have a real mess on your hands. McCain's inauguration will be spectacular!

[macadomus]

Are you serious we will stay in Iraq for 100 hundreds years. I don't know anything about economy McCain. The man that is not conservative enough, the oldest man running for president at 72. Continuing bush tax cut McCain. Not to mention he is flip flopping on every issues he stood for. He old, boring, and senile he makes no history and is supported by the most hated man in America. A former terrorist could run and probably beat him. Learn the candidate you are supporting someone.

[macadomus]

[undecidedguy]

Geraldine Ferraro; Is this lady a racist idiot or what? I thought she had more class than that! Fact, Obama won Main, Kansas, Maryland, Iowa, Connect, and Delaware, all of which have overwhelming Caucasian demographics. In fact, Main is 85% His campaign is about bringing people together not tearing them apart. Hillary is so caught up in winning that she can't understand that if you divide the races you divide the party. That's why the democrats will loose the general election. KKK Lady!

[sradss1]

Olberamann is insane and Rachel Maddow is just a wee bit retarded *LOL*... Gotta love the far left, and MSNBC for letting them spew their garbage nightly...

[godspeedyoujustin]

criminals.

[Surrender2Terror]

OLBERMANN IS SUCH A PUSSY...

I wonder if he sits down when he pees.

[brghtsd1]

This is AWFUL...there's nothing Presidential about this

[pmhinton]

wow this guy just robbed america

[boobsy108]

Clinton is done. Desperation much? Or is she trying to be like Dubya?

[chuchu30]

bush is the only person i have ever hated...truely hated.

[hippieCy08]

Hillary's camp, or as I call them 'minions' are getting out of control. Honestly, are these people clueless or just think this is how to get the White vote? They sure are not getting mine and many others.
