Dick Armey is a fear mongering asshole. I just think somebody should say that out loud.

And another thing, I think that President Obama should immediately make Rachel Maddow his spokesperson to explain the health care plan to the American people and to confront the GOP spin doctors when they try to lie to our citizens.

She is probably the most articulate person we have on this issue with the possible exception of the President himself.

This was the first time I have watched Meet the Press since David Gregory has taken over the show and I have to say I was VERY disappointed. MTP was my go to program on Sunday mornings for at least the last seven years, but when Tim died I simply could not accept Gregory in that role.

And I have to say that if Russert were alive today he would have made mincemeat out of Dick Armey and Senator Coburn. No question about it.

    Agreed about the new MTP host. Just not the same anymore (and no longer the #1 Sunday show). Actually, we were thinking that Rachel should take over as host of MTP to revive it ....

  4. Anonymous 4:22, I could not agree more.

    I would NEVER miss the show if Rachel were at the helm. Those pansies at NBC made what they thought was the safe choice.

    Dumbasses!

  5. Armey is way too tan. And irrelevant and an a-hole. Rachel ROCKS, she needs to run for office one day.

    On a happier note, APOC says ALL gifts and A-Cat detals must be dislcosed tomorrow.

    Rachel was awesome. Armey was pissed. That freaking triple chin'd dinosaur couldn't spout his freakin lies.

  8. I couldn't agree more. MTP is no longer the program to go to. Tim would have made mincemeat out of those two losers. Gregory just doesn't cut it. He just rolled over and allowed Armey & Coburn to dominate the conversation. I know Rachel was as frustrated as I was when she wasn't even allowed to make a point without them rolling over her. She definitely would make an awesome host of the show. Lawrence O'Donnell would also make a much better host than Gregory.

    I was soooo disappointed in the show.

  9. am I the only one who finds it funny Rachel was on with two Toms and two Dicks?...just saying...she outshone them all, but really, why were the two Toms there at all? what do they have to do with this?
    We've known what a waste DickG is since he danced with Rapper Rove, one of the most disgusting spectacles from the BushRoveco years.....

    Since I don't get MSNBC, I only discovered Rachel a few months ago online. Now I check out her show every day. She's smart, articulate and always well prepared. She's also tough but not in a rude or disrespectful way. I was not impressed this morning when I watched MTP, and agree with Kat that Rachel or Lawrence O'Donnell would be better hosts than Gregory. It makes me crazy when people like Armey are allowed to lie on camera without being called on it. Tim Russert would never have allowed him to get away with it.

  11. I missed Sunday School to watch this morning... that's how excited I was to see Rachel go toe to toe with Dick Armey... and I was not disappointed. And yes, SJK, Dick was too tan, even for a Texan. Good Lord, he'd at least have a HAT TAN if he were a real Texan!

    When she got to speak, Rachel was amazing. I was also impressed with Tom Daschle's articulation & command of the facts. He and Rachel were clear & calm, while Dick was LITERALLY wringing his hands by his face & telling medical horror stories in mock hysteria. What a crock!

  12. Why was Dick smiling and laughing when he was talking about a guy contacting him about $21K in medical debt?? Everyone please contact your democratic senators and congressmen/women and tell them to support the president!

  13. Wasn't Rachel great!?! I was so amazed at the way she tried to put the Dick in his place. But of course, they kept trying to talk over her and interrupting her. But Armey had a red face during the entire show. Probably because most people in the news won't ever call him out the way Rachel did.
    I think Rachel should be the moderator of MTP. She would be even better than Tim was. She doesn't really take sides, she just lets the facts guide her.

  14. "well gryphen, his name is Dick Armey. 'nuff said."

    Remember the way Jon Stewart showed the spelling of Dick Aremey's name?

    Dick Are me

    Rachel Madcow has no credability with the majority of America, the 800,000 viewrs she gets on MSNBC are about the only people who actually believe the silliness this gal puts out nightly. Armey is right on the money with the media fabricated swine flu garbage, it is being done for the weakminded porgressives who fall for this type of hype. Americans don't believe it.
