MSNBC's Maddow: Artur Davis Bitter Because Was 'Absolutely Destroyed

As you may be well aware, MSNBC did not air Democrat-turned-Republican Artur Davis's speech last night. Shortly before 10 p.m. Eastern, anchor Rachel Maddow seemed to offer the network's rationale: Davis was a low-profile Democrat who is just bitter because he was "absolutely destroyed" in his primary race for Alabama governor in 2010. Yet in the very next breath, Maddow seemed positively…

MSNBC's O'Donnell Rips Ann Romney For Ignoring 'Struggling' Women Who

MSNBC 's immediate reaction to Ann Romney's Tuesday night speech at the Republican National Convention was to stick by the left-wing talking point that she can't relate to ordinary Americans, especially women.

Former NBC Reporter Tells Maddow: All Romney Has Going For Him Is His

On Monday’s Rachel Maddow Show, the MSNBC host mocked Mitt Romney’s pursuit of the white vote, reporting Romney told USA Today that President Obama moved toward welfare waivers “as a calculation that was designed to shore up the Obama base before the election.” Maddow thought it was ridiculous: “As if people on welfare are Barack Obama’s base. [Maddow winks] Especially the lazy ones. [Winks…

Wrong, Maddow - It Was Dems, Not GOP, Willing to Shut Down Govt. Over

When it comes to dispensing the casual lie, few leftists in media rival Rachel Maddow.

Maddow: Abortion Foes Would Force Pregnant Woman to Bear 'Rapist's Bab

For years I have heard abortion enthusiasts contort themselves in knots to avoid saying "baby" when talking about abortion. Leave it to MSNBC's plucky Rachel Maddow to go where few liberals dare --  acknowledging, albeit indirectly, that abortion involves killing human life at its most vulnerable.

Ed Schultz Alludes to Maddow's 'Hard Time Talking About' Medicare With

"Democrats" are struggling to defend Obamacare's $700 billion-plus cuts to Medicare, according to Ed Schultz.

Maddow on NB Piece Linked By Drudge: 'Welcome 3-Day Onslaught' of 'Ema

Rachel Maddow apparently wasn't pleased to learn that a NewsBusters piece about her being destroyed on Meet the Press by National Review editor Rich Lowry Sunday was picked up by the popular website The Drudge Report.

National Review's Rich Lowry Destroys MSNBC's Rachel Maddow on Meet th

UPDATE: Maddow responds. She's touted by the liberal media as one of the brightest commentators on television, yet MSNBC's Rachel Maddow got thoroughly demolished by National Review editor Rich Lowry on Sunday's Meet the Press.

Maddow's Kneejerk Response to Romney's Welfare Reform Ad: It Is 'Dog-W

For more than a decade, liberals have insisted on the presumption of innocence for all manner of poor, misunderstood jihadists intent on slaughtering as many infidels as possible. But when it comes to alleged racism from conservatives, the burden of proof quickly turns lenient. All it takes is a left winger claiming it so, a perverse dynamic long predating the war on terror. (video after…

Maddow Credits Student Protest With Saving High School in Detroit - Sa

Make that -- a privately owned, non-union charter school company. No wonder Rachel Maddow's memory about this got selective. Michigan's emergency financial manager law, enacted by the legislature in 2011 to allow the governor to appoint emergency managers to oversee insolvent municipalities and school districts, is one of Maddow's obsessions, right up there with gay marriage, Republicans as…

Maddow Claims Romney Adviser's Remarks Nearly 'Start a War With Iran
