Default Rep. Blackburn, come down off your high horse

Busted! David Shuster (fill in for Tucker on msnbc) killed two birds with one stone; not only did he expose Blackburn as a hypocrite, he busted Rush Limbaugh too. Maybe msnbc will consider giving David Shuster a permanent gig. He can take Tucker's time slot, that way Tucker can have more time to go dancing with the stars.

Default I'm confused

What did Blackburn say that you disagree with? She disagreed with Limbaugh. If Hagel betrayed us then there is nothing wrong with saying so. I have no idea what the context is. Is there any evidence that General Petraeus betrayed us?

Yes, you are.

Does Blackburn have a mental disability that you know of? David Shuster only had to confront her three times before she was finally able/willing to condemn Rush Limbaugh.

Sheesh! YOU just said that Blackburn disagreed with Limbaugh. If Blackburn disagrees with Limbaugh that means...she DOESN'T think Hagel "betrayed us."

That is apparent.

This interview between Shuster and Blackburn was about GOP hypocrisy, did you read the msnbc caption on the youtube video? Apparently, Blackburn didn't get the memo.

Defend your moveon cohorts.

Instead of being a (*)(*)(*)(*)(*) of MSNBC.

Thans for the link though..nothing better highlights the simplistic juvenile nature of MSNBC then a such a stupid comparison and story based around it then that clip.
Simplistic idiocy for a simplistic audience.

Who's defending move-on? you should already know that I've said on other threads that no one deserves to be called a traitor whether it's the military or one of our representatives unless you have solid proof that someone is actually a traitor...move-on doesn't. FYI, not liking a party's ideology, policy or agenda, does not add up to being a traitor.

You have a tendency to name call (I would consider that simplistic and juvenile) when you don't like something. Plus, ignoring Limbaugh won't make his statement go away or seem any less hypocritical. Speaking of hypocrisy.... you "my friend" are a fine example of that.

Then there is no rational reason for the MSNBC report or this post.

Sure there is;

Check out the beginning. MSNBC Caption reads; GOP HYPOCRISY



Until people like you are willing to admit that Rush Limbaugh WAS being hypocritical, it will remain an issue. If you're going to be selective on who you accuse of being a traitor, you're going to get called on it.

So Blackburn doesn't agree with Limbaugh saying that. Since I don't know what Hagel did that Limbaugh was referring to or the context I don't know whether Limbaugh was wrong or not.

So she wanted to talke about NYT and not Limbaugh. Why do you find that surprising?

So? That doesn't mean she's right to disagree with Limbaugh. Without knowing the context I don't know whether Limbaugh was wrong or not. What she thinks is irrelevant to that point.

Well you have yet to demonstrate the hypocricy. When you determine what was hypocritical please let us all know.

Default Nice leap.

Rush was talking about Hagel's betrayal of the party - a political comment. It's completely different than the moveon crap which Petraeus cannot respond to. He can't get into politics. Also, Rush appears to have not used the term again after the reference to the caller.


BTW, the idiot didn't do his homework. Jeremy Bohannon was not from Blackburn's district. A stupid cheap shot and a lie.

That is an honest assesment.

Not at all, IMO, it makes her look petty. If I could give her advise I'd tell her to get back to the people's business and stop playing divisive partisan games.

Either she lacks backbone if she can't stand up for Rush Limbaugh or she's smart enough to know that agreeing with Limbaugh will be a major story and she will also look like an a@@hole.

Blackburn pointed out Limbaugh's hypocrisy by admitting that he was wrong.
