i'm so glad rachel is talking about this stuff as thoroughly as she is because i get the sense that most americans have no idea about astroturfing and view such fake-movements uncritically. i think a lot of people want to be involved politically but they don't think to dig deeper into the organizations behind the flyers they read; they just go "yeah! boy, that's for me!" and fall headfirst into the traps the astroturfers set for naive yokels like that. i want people to be angrier.
xpost haha, ask the person who wrote that.

rm on the astroturfers is pretty lol, she might as well tell the audience to listen very carefully while she's talking because its like a complete news story that seems to just tar so many ppl

It occurs to me that Rachel Maddow and Ana Marie Cox would be the most adorable couple in the entire history of canoodling.
― tie me up, dress in drag, and read to me from the bible (kenan), Saturday, 14 November 2009 02:42 (fourteen years ago) link
Ana Marie liked and respected Keith. Clearly the man wasn’t afraid to say anything, but she was also just as happy that most of her MSNBC bookings were with Rachel, rather than the high-testosterone environment of Countdown. To be honest, there were times during the campaign when she’d thought that some of Keith’s shots at McCain were low blows. Never inaccurate; just a shade crueler than absolutely necessary.
Keith must have had at least one cocktail too many, because Ana Marie was absolutely positive that that he’d actually leered at her when he said, “I can’t wait to see you on Rachel next week. You guys are really hot together,” which left Ana Marie with an unusual case of stunned silence until Keith lurched off in the direction of Politico.com table.
She’d been able to shake it off and get on with her night of hard-core schmoozing, but now she had to deal with the facts.
It wasn’t like she was the only one with a crush on Rachel Maddow, she thought, gingerly stepping into the Jacuzzi. The condition appeared to be nearly universal, and if the stuff she read on-line was any indication, Keith was the last rather than the first to make note of their onscreen chemistry.
Even Chris would joke about her “having a date with her girlfriend” when she was booked on Rachel’s show. He’d told her that the “tea-bagging” segments were pretty much the filthiest thing he’d seen on television, not that he minded. He thought they’d do better to give Ana Marie and Rachel an hour every day to talk in obscene euphemisms, instead of letting Matthews imperil the public’s hearing every day. Or maybe as a replace for what he called “Morning Schmo.”
So why did Olbermann making a slightly rude comment bother her so much?
Because now, when she angled herself against one of the jets, letting it stimulate her, as she imagined Rachel's hand in the same place, she couldn’t help seeing Keith as well, taking in the action with great interest.
This was wrong. So wrong. And so very hot.

Maddow seems to want to argue “character” rather than “merits.” That is: Instead of finding ways to explain: Health reform is good and here’s why, she seems determined to argue this: The other tribe is dishonest.

I don't think you can really speak authoritatively about her background unless you've palpated the bumps on her skull, that's the best way to tell how much money someone's parents had
