Rachel Maddow Called Out for Being an Obama Cheerleader by Rep. Huelskamp (R-KS)

Rachel Maddow's job is NOT to be a journalist and give you the news. Her job is to promote and affirm liberal view points.

Rachel Maddow OFTEN lies, tells half truths and makes sophomoric mistakes.

Rachel Maddow gave out false information to attack Scott Walker (R) - when PolitiFact said she was False, she actually tried to lie about what she had said and politifact said and then claimed to be correct. Too bad for her, politifact had her the segment in question on tape.

She does not care about the truth.

Rachel Maddow's file | PunditFact

If you watch her, that makes you an incredibly uninformed person. No offense.
Dr. Maddow, who has 37% either true or mostly true and 47% either mostly false, false, or pants on fire does better than Rush Limbaugh Rush Limbaugh's file | PunditFact who has 85% either mostly false, false, or pants on fire. 85%!!!!!! He has mostly true on 5% and true is 0%. She also does better than Sarah Palin who has 34% on the true side and 54% on the false side. Sarah Palin's file | PunditFact She does better than Allen West who has only 19% on the true side and 68% on the false side. Allen West's file | PunditFact She does better than Bill O'Reilly who has 30% on the true side and 61% on the false side. Bill O'Reilly's file | PunditFact

I'd be hard pressed to even call them "journalists." They're nothing more than actors/actresses playing a part to pander to the lowest common denominator.
Politcal post of the day!

per your posting above which shows Maddow is 47% wrong, this would mean she spends nearly 1/2 her show, apologizing and correcting errors she made the previous day.

I think its more likely she doesnt correct most, if any of her mistakes.. ok, a few here or there, after she's called out on them.

another millionaire liberal with white guilt

another angry lesbian who thinks she is being persecuted

when she gets up in the morning the only "pressing matters" she has is deciding who she will call a racist and/or homophobe today. and where her and her lib friends are having lunch

somehow she likes to believe that she is a champion for "poor" blacks minorities etc..when she can't relate

the only people in her viewing audience are other gay rich liberals..so maybe all her show topics should be about global warming and gay things.

not even any reason to select a republican of the day as a show topic when she could be discusing gender neutral bathrooms smh
