mood after your near meltdown on Rev. Al's show yesterday? Or are you still in timeout? That was disgusting you rich and privledged young lady. He has always treated you very respectful when he had you as a guest on his show.

(13,899 posts)royal snit. She said to Al "It's the economy, stupid." She practically spit that out. He was very polite and continued questioning her. That's when she said "what do you want me to say?" I thought it was incredibly immature and rude. I thought as I was watching her that I'd rather watch Michael Steele.

(5,842 posts)When Al asked her to explain exactly what was taken out of context she got all huffy and lashed out since she couldn't back up her statement.
She may have been a breath of fresh air back in 2008-2009 but Meghan's become just another defender of failed policies and out-of-date beliefs.

(17,651 posts)confronted her asking her what's up with that and no it wasn't a clip (can't remember exactly what he said) she got really red and puffy and said "What do you want me to say" - paraphrasing.
It was pretty awful.

(2,068 posts)"Its the economy, STUPID" Like it was directed at Al personally.

(31,239 posts)Did you see Rev Al's eyes when she snapped at him? I think he was taken aback a bit, but he soldiered on. She's relied heavily on the tied Gallup dailies, and now she's lost that. It really is funny, but she looked so unprofessional. On the other hand, I thought Jon Huntsman's daughter was very pleasant, and a knockout. She definitely benefited from her Dad's gene pool, and even though she's a Republican, she deals in the real world.

(13,992 posts)Not like Fox is falling all over itself to have her on as a guest.

(5,842 posts)Frankly, I am shocked hers lasted this long since her hook was a campaign blog and what appears to be a now abandoned effort to modernize the R party on certain social issues.

(20,450 posts)He clearly demonized the 47%, suggesting that they don't pay taxes and see themselves as victims. He said that they will vote for Obama because his policies keep them on the dole. Nothing out of context, sweetheart. That's what he said!
Tarheel_Dem
(31,239 posts)she didn't expect that Rev Al would ask to her explain how the comments were "out of context". She looked spoiled and childish, and sorta reminded me why I can't stand GOP women like Coulter and Laura Ingraham. For a time, I thought she was much classier than them.
LynneSin
(95,337 posts)why we deserve their vote'?
Or 'I Know the 47% includes our seniors and veterans and I want to create programs to make their lives better'.
I mean maybe I just missed that part of the speech.
Oh wait - it never happened.

(8,200 posts)One of the primary qualifications to be a member of today's Republican Party is to be consumed with hatred. The rich ones hate the poor and the stupid ass poor ones hate everyone who isn't a white red-neck, evangelical preduiced nincompoop. The main stay of the Republican Party is basically composed of the three H's. When you look at the map they comprise the Hicks, Hillbillies and Hay Seeds.
