Katrina vanden Heuvel on Moron Joe NAILED it when talking about the McCain/Palin campaign
I'm looking for video, but the best examination of the McCain/Palin campaign can be boiled down to this:

"It's 4th grade McCarthyism!"

Listening to Palin and McCain and the halfwits at their rallies, it sounds EXACTLY like that. It's like the playground bullies were given megaphones.

1. lol - go Katrina - what was Joe's reaction?
I saw a few minutes of Joe yesterday and he said Obama's proposals were no where near socialism so he must have agreed with her to some extent.

2. He was championing women's rights, as usual, bemoaning the sexist attacks on Palin.
:rofl:

4. Moron Joe was his usual selfish self
It's like the guy doesn't have memory recall past a couple minutes.

He went off about how the "Left" is really angry and make very ugly statements "about our Commander-In-Chief"... like he's a dictator no one should be allowed to bring dissent with. He tried to change the subject so it was about "the angry Left"... ignoring the statements Katrina vanden Heuvel artfully made. She looked like she was ready to leave the set.

I had to turn it off.

14. It wasn't that long ago Joe was making ugly statements
"about his commander in chief"

He was furious with bush and making ugly all over him less than 6 months ago, but of course it's only the left that gives bush that 28% approval rating.

Joe, for an attorney you have a real BAD memory. :eyes:

7. I rarely watch "Joe" but did this a.m.
when I saw Katrina. That is one smart lady and she said what needed to be said. Joe sickens me. He couldn't stop talking about John Murtha and something he said that was taken out of context.

9. I predict Joe will soon make a very stupid remark...
which will get him fired. He's always just right on that edge.

11. Yep. It's the Fifties all over again. At long last, have you no shame? Maybe they saw Goodnight
and Good Luck and figured McCarthyism was due for a revival?

I blame George Clooney. (KIDDING).

12. Katrina vanden Heuvel is brilliant. Yes, 4th Grade is "the GOP Mavericks."
Edited on Wed Oct-29-08 09:33 AM by ShortnFiery
I've enjoyed part time employment as an High School substitute teacher and as a Professor (Introduction Psychology & Alcohol Abuse) when we lived overseas. However, ONCE, and only ONCE, I agreed to Sub a 4th Grade Class.

On topic: IMNSHO, 4th Graders are the *most INEPT* with regard to social skills development. For example, they "rat each other out" in a New York Minute. Further, if one was not morally sound, their opinions are EASY to manipulate. As Denis Leary would quip, "They're like drunken midgets."

Bingo Katrina! I'll never forget that day of 4th grade substitute teaching ... it was a laugh riot for me, but not my cup of tea. Bless the Teachers who can handle Elementary School - IMO - they are Saints. :-)

On edit: Apologies to drunken midgets.
