MSNBC Serves Katy Abrams a HardBall Crap Sandwich - 08-12-09

What's a crap sandwich you ask? It's when someone talks to you affectionately in the beginning, giving you pseudo-compliments, craps down your throat in the middle, and ends with more fake compliments.

Katy Abrams, as you might know, was at the townhall with Arlen Specter in Lebanon, PA yesterday, and took him to task about getting back to the Constitution. She decided to come on Hardball to More..night, for whatever reasons, and answers some questions from O'Donnell.

Obviously O'Donnell has never seen the actual video of Obama saying he's for single-payer healthcare. Katy had NO problem remembering the video, yet O'Donnell continued to deny the prez ever said he was for "single-payer" healthcare. He did try to qualify it (not in this edit) that if the prez said it a few years ago and not AS prez, it didn't matter, but would the same standards be held by any MSNBC shill if it applied to Bush? Remember, they repeatedly still bash him, all the way back to his college days.

The segment wound up really dirty, with O'Donnell admitting that Medicare was "socialism," and had Katy eventually admit that, according to the Founding Fathers, yes, socialized medicine was not intended to be enacted. O'Donnell is going to try to spin this as Katy saying she wants her parents to die and go off Medicare, but what Katy was really trying to say (nervously) is that Medicare was meant, in its original form, to be temporary.

But that will all get lost with the MSNBC talking heads, as well as the other MSM outlets. Screw 'em all.

Katy, you're welcome in our tent any time

Please. She stopped for applause! At first I was upset they put her on, but she hung herself with her own ignorant, incongruous rambling. When asked direct questions about her opinion, she declined every time. Now MSNBC, equal time for those who want a national health insurance option (and who don't bark and snarl like an annoying small dog) at senators and congressional representatives.

This women tried to appear to be a "dumb simple blonde" but then the interviewer reminded her of the comment she made at Sen. Arlen Spector, when she told him she wanted the "country restored back to what the founding fathers created in the constitution." After he made that point at 5:47 she got owned!

@ 3:11, O'Donnell brings up the "if you like your healthcare plan, you can keep it" canard. Yeah...but you can't keep it if your company drops it, can you?

Nice to see Chris Mathews debate some schmuck. He's a man's man. Friggin Liberal Coward. ast least he found someone at his level to debate. Fuck you.

[Testifyexe]

The fact that she says she has never cared about politics is an indication that we should not have listened to jack shit she said.

[schlummieleinchen]

This woman must have been thoroughly "briefed" by the Karl Rove Debate Drill Team. Her lack of knowledge and apparent "sudden interest" in just this one issue makes her suspect. A hand-picked pea-brain to stomp for the right wing La La Land Agenda. Not impressed!

[WorldShark]

She may be an easy target, but sometimes people like her need put in their place.

[Liteninbug]

I agree with Connie!!!!

Obviously, NewsPaperOnline hasn't seen any video where Obama stated that he was for the single payor either. It simply does not exist. He has been consistent in his opposition to a 100% government takeover of healthcare.

But of course, like most others that I have asked to cite their source or to provide any supporting documentation? S/he'll fold like a cheap deck of cards.

If "craps down your throat in the middle" is a metaphor for delivering facts then yes, this is a crap sandwich.
