1. go tamron!!!!

[jp11]

2. Thing of beauty.

Tim Carney plays the RW 'how dare you talk about this thing when there are important issues to discuss' but that isn't how it works when republicans have their teeth in some meaty non story about their enemies.

Trying to have an actual discussion about Romney's past and being a bully and this guy won't stop with the 'oh please this is so long ago we need to talk about the economy' blah blah blah 'obama's a failure' blah blah.

21. Character counts... only

if you`re Bill Clinton in 1998, not if you`re Mittens in 2012. Then it`s the economy, stupid! Character`s off limits, beneath his dignity shouldn`t even have to be talking about it. The nerve, when we have so many more pressing issues to discuss!

[karynnj]

22. Not just Clinton - They went after Obama's birth and his kindergarten "essay"

They also lied about John Kerry's genuine heroism because of what it really says of his character. Those are more extreme than not considering if character is an issue for a Democrat it is an issue for a Republican.

[Kencorburn]

34. Lets not forget about Sen. David Vitter (R Letch-Louisiana)

A shininng example of republican moral principles.

[Ruby the Liberal]

25. "You are not going to come on and insult me" "I'm done"

[truebrit71]

26. Wow, that was AWESOME!!!!

Way to go Ms Hall!!!

Pay attention Lapdog media...THAT is how you handle a rethuglican spokesjerk..

[JoePhilly]

27. That was a thing of beauty!!

[annabanana]

28. Bang - ZOOM!. .Great job. The baloney stuck in her craw

and she spit it out

[Tarheel_Dem]

40. 'Not In My House'!

That was beautiful! And so is Tamron!

[uponit7771]

42. +1

[LoisB]

44. If ONLY they would ALL do this! This is a thing of beauty.

[one_voice]

3. That was awesome!!

she slapped him down. I had to rewind it and watch it again. Made my day!

[jenmito]

5. I had to rewind it, too! It was a thing of beauty. n/t

[sybylla]

33. I totally skipped over the whole segment. I'm going to go back now.

I get sick of Tim Carney and his BS so I don't bother watching. Nice that someone else finally got sick of it.

[jenmito]

4. I was going to start a thread about this, too. She said she's "done" with him and cut off his mic!

She told him that he insulted her and MSNBC, that he came into her "house" and KNEW what they'd be discussing, that this was NOT an "ambush," and that she was DONE with him.

[mfcorey1]

7. Best news show I have seen all day. nt

[jenmito]

15. Same here! Usually, Matin Bashir's show is best during the day. I'm not sure he can top

Tamron's show today.

[Iliyah]

48. Martin B sorta cut off a

Newt surrogate when asking about Mitten's bullying and the guy started talking about Pres O and also said Pres O was a druggie and putting everything on BO instead of answering the question about WMR.

[jenmito]

54. Yup-I saw that, too. He was very good. He does that type of thing often. n/t

[madashelltoo]

35. And, when a sister says she's done, damnit, she's done!

You go, girl.

The part I loved most was when she said, "You're in my house." Ha! Now, take that, sucker!

[pamela]

6. That was great!

I think they must have cut his mic, too. At the end he had a smarmy look and his mouth was moving but you couldn't hear anything. Tamron was great. I clicked on DU right away to see if anyone else saw it.

[PatSeg]

38. That was the icing on the cake

He talking away, totally unaware that no one can hear him!

[tallahasseedem]

8. Someone please, please, PLEASE...

give us a play by play!

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

9. HILARIOUS !!

Of course Republicans conveniently forget that just a week ago, the Romney campain and Ann Romney in particular had a string of interviews in which they referenced Romney's high school pranks and hijinks trying to mold an image of Romney as a fun-loving jokester and prankster who isn't the stiff, boring, uncharismatic robot that we see on our TV.

"This is the boy that I knew I still look at him as the boy that I knew in high school when he was playing all the jokes and really just being crazy pretty crazy and so there's a wild and crazy man in there."

The Romney campaign raised the issue. They invited us to look into his high school years. They walked right into this fiasco. Now that it no longer reflects a positive image, they want to talk about something else.

[lamp_shade]

11. Hmmm Sounds to me like they knew what was about to break.

[CatWoman]

13. last night Lawrence said that interview was just the Romney's trying to spin and get ahead

of the storyline, as they knew the Post was working on the story.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

14. Just a wild and crazy

guy.

[JDPriestly]

47. By the way, that snake-designed teeshirt makes Ann Romney

look fat. I wonder what fashion consultant told her to buy that. It's absolutely awful! She is a rather feminine woman. That tee-shirt is completely not her.

Can't resist the fashion comment. It's off subject, but then I get the feeling that the tee-shirt is a symbol of the fact that the Romneys never seem to be themselves. It's as if they know that what they are, who they really are, could never get him elected.

What is more, their ideas and personalities are way off-topic in terms of what America needs to discuss and who we need for our president.

[HangOnKids]

57. That Fashion Abomination Cost $900

I don't have the time to look up the threads but they were all over DU last week. 900 fucking dollars. Gag!

[lamp_shade]

10. She's one tough cookie. Loved it.

[Buns_of_Fire]

12. 'Twas a thing of beauty.

When he accepted the invitation, he knew what the discussion was going to be about. But as usual, the repigs want to hijack the interview and squeeze in as many of their current talking points as possible, and Tamron was having none of it.

Good for her.

[iloveObama12]

16. Tamron OMG!

[abolugi]

17. tamron hall

is trending on Twitter right now.
Lots of great comments!!

[mfcorey1]

20. Blowing up with glee on twitter!

[msu2ba]

18. Outstanding!

Her house, her rules!

[Politicalboi]

19. You tell him Tamron

Silly War on Women indeed. She laid him out about that too.

[southernyankeebelle]

23. I was watching the whole thing and I was clapping and laughing my head off. She handed him his

ass. I was so proud of her. Go girl.

[EC]

24. I wonder if there is any credibility to the rumors of her

and Lawrence O'Donnell dating? She could be getting some tips from him on holding guests to the truth, because lately she's been relentless.

[flamingdem]

30. Wow, now that's a surprise

Who'd a thunk it.

[PatSeg]

39. The thing is

Lawrence can be uncomfortably obnoxious, whereas Tamron is very civil and professional, so if she loses her temper, people pay more attention.

She handled the situation very well and didn't miss a beat in the process.

[csziggy]

56. She was formidable when she was partners with David Schuster

At the same time slot before Schuster was fired.

Their take down of Orly Taitz was awesome:

[flamingdem]

29. I thought she was fabulous!

I have a new level of respect for her after that smack down.

[Are_grits_groceries]

31. Oh, don't you wish for a moment back in time and a new dimension

when Tamron could have run into Mittens in HS.
She would have left only bones, if that!

[madokie]

32. I've always liked Tamron

She put that asshole in his place and did it with class. Good on her.

[Kencorburn]

36. My favorite tweet on this by #Birthday is Tomorrow

? @ReignOfApril
What's going on w/ Tamron Hall? Whose wig is she snatching?

[DLevine]

37. Fantastic! We need many more Tamron Halls. n/t

[Tx4obama]

41. Here's a link to the segment -- 10:00 minute VIDEO

[Recursion]

43. I've known Tim for years, and I'm definitely going to mock him about this...

...that was a severe ass-handing.

[abelenkpe]

45. Nice

Good for her. Why should she let him insult media or her when he knew n agreed on subject before hand?

[Cairycat]

46. I wish MSNBC had Tamron Hall on more

she is great.

[happerbolic]

49. Making Carney look like a 'Carnie'...

...unfair. He was under the belief that she 'was gonna' ask me about the pig'...

hahaaa..... Lovin' it up! Keep up the delivery Tamron!

[klook]

50. DONE!

That was cathartic.

[toddwv]

51. I watched that.

It was awesome. She is even more beautiful when she is livid.

Romney is stuck in a hard place right now, a dangerous place to be. On one hand, he needs to swing back to the middle or he risks losing the independents and moderates. On the other hand, if he does swing back to far, the extreme right, which already isn't particularly fond of him will make life difficult on him this election.

So naturally, the Romney camp wants to focus on economy, well their version of the economy at least. He is essentially putting all his eggs in one basket which is going to increasingly hurt him as the economy continues to improve.

[JI7]

52. hahha, she called him out on his BS

he knew what would be asked. but he wanted to try to appear above it all and interested in the issues by giving that bs.

[NNN0LHI]

53. k and r

[malaise]

55. Bwaaaaaaaaah hahahahaha

Beautiful
