I agree with your characterization of Maddow. She is very skillful in expressing her disagreement on any issue and thereby she displays here intellect etc. But my reason for lumping them together is because of their accusing Obama for not having fulfilled his election promises. Yesterday, I watched a British anchor on FOX (he was a former CNN anchor) who flat out kept insisting to his hosts that Obama has failed to create jobs with his stimulus package. How could someone ever expect to wipe out millions of job losses in 5 months when it took almost 2 to 3 years to lose them? This anchor, like any prostitute, will do anything for money, even sound like an imbecile. So Maddow should take this cue and not sound rabidly liberal like Limbaugh and this FOX anchor sound rabidly right wing extremist.

I must say that I firmly believe Maddow Makes up facts and has no concept of logic, and doesn't care. She does make a living bashing the right and making all conservative haters (most of whom have no understanding of conservatives and their ideas) just hate conservatives because they find their ideas threatening without understanding them. It seems to me she isn't thoughtful enough to allow a true alternative slant to escape through her airtime if at all possible. I do like her personality (one can't help it, I feel, though some I know disagree and think she's a tad snooty) until she inevitably speaks unresponsively, as if in total ignorance of what's valid from another point of view she is attacking. She's possibly worse than Hannity in this regard, if that's possible. Sigh...yes, gay discrimination has to stop...something even Limbaugh does agree with (to the extent he thinks it exists, anyway). But I must ask, how can you feel Obama's mind is wide open on the issue of gay marriage when in the same sentence you acknowledge he absolutely agrees marriage should be between a man and a woman, precisely like the former Ms. California? What is it you think he is so wide open about then? Dan B.
