Maddow on Blame for Solyndra Debacle: Bush, Obama, Whatever

September 28th, 2011 7:39 PM
Bankrupt solar panel maker Solyndra made a fleeting appearance on the Rachel Maddow show Monday night, just long enough for Maddow to assure her viewers that this too can be seen as Bush's fault. Maddow did her best to put a shine on the situation, suggesting the Bush administration was at much at fault for considering Solyndra's application for a $535 million federal loan as the Obama…

Maddow Consistently Incapable of Distinguishing Few From Many

September 27th, 2011 5:17 PM
Rachel Maddow should never be put in charge of crowd control. Not until she learns to count. Maddow is clearly flummoxed by what actually constitutes a crowd, as can be seen in her commentary on audiences at Republican presidential debates. (video after page break)

September 24th, 2011 7:24 PM
Forget the birther theory that Obama was born in Kenya. Chris Hayes wants you to believe the president was born on Krypton. How else to explain his over-the-top gushing for Dear Leader during an appearance on MSNBC colleague Rachel Maddow's show on Thursday (video after page break) --

Maddow Lets Jimmy Carter's Dishonesty About Israel Pass Unchallenged

September 21st, 2011 1:31 PM
Rachel Maddow neglected to do her homework before her "exclusive" interview with Jimmy Carter last week -- "exclusive" in the sense that no one else was talking to Carter at the time. Maddow asked the former president about the ransacking of the Israeli embassy in Egypt, followed by Carter making a jaw-dropper of a claim about Israel's alleged refusal to relinquish land as stipulated in its…

Maddow Claims Perry 'Put to Death' Convicted Killers in Texas

September 15th, 2011 5:01 PM

Apparent Closet Racist Rachel Maddow Describes Obama as 'Boy King

September 9th, 2011 6:17 PM
Those crickets you hear? Her fellow left-wingers responding to Rachel Maddow referring to then-President Elect Obama as a "boy king" on her MSNBC show last night. Yes, hard to believe. Even in an era when the president of the United States is a man of color, as is our attorney general, as is the governor of Massachusetts where Maddow lives, Obama must be subjected to such vile disrespect --…

George Will: 'You Couldn't Build the Hoover Dam Today Because' Environ

August 21st, 2011 1:41 PM
As government spending supporters in the media press for a new, bolder stimulus plan to get the economy going, they love to refer to the Depression Era Hoover Dam as a shining moment in Keynesian economics. When this surfaced on ABC's "This Week" Sunday, George Will marvelously noted, "You couldn't build the Hoover Dam today because they'd discover a snail darter in the Colorado River and…
