Countdown’ Goes Drag to Rip Sarah Palin


Stay classy, MSNBC.

On the day after the Republican Party showed gains in a few statewide elections and with key health care and cap-and-trade legislation pending, MSNBC went back to the well to do what it does best – attack the character of one of the network’s favorite targets, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

On the Nov. 4 broadcast of MSNBC’s “Countdown,” with fill-in host Lawrence O’Donnell substituting for Keith Olbermann (still MIA since New Jersey gubernatorial race went Republican), Michael Musto, gay columnist for The Village Voice and author of “La Dolce Musto” dressed up as Palin and reenacted two phony speeches.

The occasion: A few media outlets had obtained “leaked” portions of two possible speeches Palin would have given on Election Night 2008 in the event of a McCain/Palin victory and a defeat.

    Who in the Hell watches MSNBC. They are brain dead but don't know it.

      Not too many watch that rag program. You can bet, at some point, Obama will 'bail them out' when they start to go under.

    typical MSNBC investigative reporting. when you go bankrupt dont ask for a bailout.

  3. Connie says:

    MSNBC is pathetic. So far left liberal I can't even begin to watch or listen.

    PMS-NBC and all those on it, and highly regard it, are lower than whale shit and that's at the bottom of the ocean–along with their ratings.

  5. Jeff says:

    Wow. Listen to all the vitriol. It looks to me that it's possible that MSNBC's viewer might also have felt he was having his intelligence insulted too.

  6. Ray says:

    Who in hell can watch that msnbc station…I can't stand KO nor Rachel Madcow…and really….who is that Ed character…he is even with KO for being the worst.

    NO NEWS HERE. I THOUGHT MSNBC WAS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SWAMP MUCK LONG AGO. LIKE, WHO WATCHES THEM?

    They attack Gov. Palin because they are afraid of her and they have to destroy her so people will not vote for her if she decides to run for president. This will backfire on them as well it should, just like obamanation attacking Fox News! All that did was increase the size of the viewer ship! People are waking up to the communist in the white house and they do not like what he is doing to this country!!!

    • atty1chgo says:

      Afraid of her? Run Sarah Run! An airhead of this magnitude we have not had in politics in quite some time. Only a moron (if the shoe fits, wear it Kris) would vote for this incompetent nothing of a politician. PLEASE SARAH, RUN FOR PRESIDENT!! PLEASE!!

        If names mean anything this phony seems to be hiding his identity as a Chicago attorney. Now we ALL know that a Chicago attorney means very little else than a grafting, crooked, corrupt, ambulance chasing, dimwit that is unable to pass the bar in any place other than Chicago the most criminally corrupt and bankrupt city in the free world. A perfect candidate for an Obama cabinet appointment.
        I'd bet that he doesn't even know who Sarah Palin is. He'd also make a good commentator for MSNBC the swamp of cable TV.

    MSNBC is at the bottom for a reason and we watched it again. It will backfire big time like the communists in the WH attacked FOX and it backfired. They are selfish & evil. ALL of them are jealous and scared to death of Sarah Palin who at least knows how to speak from the heart and does not have to have lines fed to her from a teleprompter. And O"dumb"ma is running our country. He stutters more than a drunk on New Year's eve if he doesn't have a teleprompter. And Biden doesn't even know how many letter the word "jobs" has. Remember when he said it is a 3-letter word? And then HE is our Vice-President. At least Sarah Palin knows how to spell. We have incompetent idiots running our country right now. I'm so scared of what they are doing and of upcoming healthcare!

    This only goes to prove the imbecilic mind level of those in charge of msnbc. Grade school children could have done a better job than these loonies. Only those with comparable mind levels would watch such programming anyhow.. Would not have known about it if it had not been sent to me in email. NEVER watch such drivel!!!
