Rachel Maddow Responds To The No-Class Koch Brothers With Major Can Of Whoop-Ass

Clip From October 20, 2011, The Rachel Maddow Show where Rachel responds to the no-class, inherited-wealth Koch Brothers (Koch Industries) with a major can of whoop-ass (among other things, she tells them to "man up") for attacking Rachel's staff for simply making a true observation.

@incitebytes - Very True.

Again, Thanks for the great job you're doing & uploading the videos. :)

@rumpole33, Thanks for your comments and fighting the good fight. It's nitwits like @nhwynter, who think they know things because they listen to Fox, Rush, Beck or some other right-wing media goof and, when confronted with actual sourced facts, all they can do is spout their nonsense talking points. My favorite @nhwynter: "[The CBO] is part of the federal government and has benefited tremendously from the Obama administration's wasting of money." You can't make that kind of blathering idiocy up.

@rumpole33 The stimulus has NOT been in the positive numbers under Obama. The unemployment rate says otherwise. You really should stop listening to the BS that you're getting fed.

[nhwynter]

@rumpole33 - Umm.. No.. the vote was whether or not to send it to the president to be signed.. And failed..

And only people like yourself and incitebytes insist on claiming what other people think. I know it's not run on simple majority. But there was no Filibuster the way incitebytes claimed..

The CBO isn't non-partisan. The numbers they are using are so broad that it only appears like jobs were added. The REALITY is that unemployment has gone UP under Obama.

I got personal with erin Burnet...

Seems like Rachel Maddow is the last stand of decent journalism in the US-main stream media.

Yet the global citizen is DAMN pissed off!

Wanna mess with us, eh? We are many, we do not forget, we´re lightening the torches and sharpening the pitchforks.

Don´t got it, eh?

"DO NOT FUCK WITH US"

@incitebytes - I just want to say good job & thanks for your posts to set the story straight & for your posting of various facts. And also for uploading the video. :)

So Koch's own stupid graph shows that they have only 1, 240 jobs open, even though Rachel's chart shows Koch got rid of 13,000 jobs in the last 4 yrs.

WOW. Good job Koch bro.s! At this rate, it'll take over 10 yrs (beyond 2021) just to make up for all the jobs you guys got rid of from 2007-2011. Geez. You guys are brilliant!

@nhwynter - The senate vote on the American Jobs Act was to open up discussions for it, not to pass it. The senate doesn't pass bills on its own.

Maybe you should watch the Schoolhouse Rocks video to learn how a bill goes through congress.

[rumpole33]

@nhwynter = the CBO is non-partisan. They agree with either party when the numbers add up, not when the political atmosphere is in their favor.

@nhwynter - If u think the senate is run by simple majority, then u've been listening to too much rightwing radio & tv shows.

Only 2 dems voted against opening up talks for the American Jobs Act vs ALL republicans who voted NO yet again (except for one who's out cuz of prostate cancer).

The stimulus package has maintained & added a million jobs, plus under Obama, job increases have been in positive numbers whereas under bush it's been 700k/month job losses.
