Shocker: MSNBC's Contessa Brewer Takes Alan Grayson To Task For Lying, Smear Ad Against GOP Opponent



HotAir.com:
We criticize MSNBC enough for its naked advocacy on behalf of the Democrats and Barack Obama, so in all fairness, we should note that they do have limits … and Alan Grayson apparently found them. Contessa Brewer engages Grayson on his disgraceful, dishonest “Taliban Dan” smear and — to her credit — refuses to let him off the hook for it. At one point, Grayson accuses Brewer of distracting attention from women’s issues, but Brewer fires back and tells Grayson that he approved the ad and its own off-message smears and out-of-context quotes. If Grayson was serious about the issues, Brewer asks, why not just stick to the issues rather than issue an ad rated “false” by Factcheck?
Finally, MSNBC does some constructive, critical criticism of a far-Left loon. Maybe more of this might help boost their abysmal ratings.

    Dude,
    please try not to take this the wrong way but,
    a conservative from Brooklyn that uses Token as an avatar,
    are you serious.
    You must see the irony.
    The GOP are corporate shills man,
    they do not care about you and yours.
    Would you really trust corporations based on profit and greed over government(not GOP government) who is based on service to the public?
    I know you know this is illogical.
    Perhaps you should advocate for a single payer system on your blog like Canada or European countries.
    It works and it works quite well.
    I know from experience.
    Obamacare will hurt small business?
    Yes his bill may have some flaws
    but Obama is the first president to actually move forward on healthcare reforms your country so badly needs.
    The fact that so many people are against something that is in their own best interests
    is absolutely insane.
    I think that is called being 'brainwashed' by the divide and conquer crowd.

    How many sick people do you see in the streets of Brooklyn everyday?
    Should the rich be treated better than the poor?
    Is the measure of a man the balance in his bank account?
    Americans can really lack empathy man.
    Jesus would not be very proud.(can you imagine what he would think about how the right wing uses Christianity in America. Remember what he did to the money changers in the temple?)

    Allan Grayson was one of the few people in your country to fight the religious right wing theocrats that may still take over the US in 2012.
    If that happens, run buddy, move to Canada.
    Grayson may have went about it rather aggressivly but when you are fighting the republicans the gloves are off.
    Taliban Dan would make a woman raise her rapists child. Thats all that needs to be said about that.
    You claim to be a democrat so there is still hope for you.
    I recommend you read the long term research study
    by Dr. Robert Altmyer at the UofM called,
    The Authoritarians.
    just google it, its a free PDF.
    Confronting your own 'conservatism'
    will be soul cleansing,
    although it wont be easy.
    Once an individual understands the underlying mindset of a conservative, they want to run and run far away from associating themselves with these types of personalities.

    Right wing conservatism (authoritarianism as Dr. Altmyer calls it)
    and religious fundamentalism are actual personality disorders like szchizophrenia, narcissism and antisocial personality disorder(sociopath),
    and will be listed in the new DSM-V when it is released.
    Of course I dont know you or your upbringing, but associating yourself with one of the most bigoted ideologies in the US must create some major cognative dissonance.eh?
    When you release yourself from the false belief in absoute free market capitalism,
    and possible authoritarian thinking
    the veil will fall my friend.
    The veil will fall.
    Cheers
