Last weekend at a downtown Philadelphia movie theater I witnessed some surprisingly enthusiastic applause for one of those Rachel-Maddow-in-a-hardhat MSNBC ads. You know, the ones wherein the prime time anchoress pines so passionately for the day when the American collective proletarian will can once again be channeled to Maddow-approved projects via central planning you’d think she spent all her spare time sitting by the phone waiting for Barack Obama to call her and say, “Time to give your notice, comrade. We need you on the cement mixer. For the nation.” It’s pretty ridiculous, and not all that consistent—you could as easily say, for example, “You can’t be the guy who invaded Iraq. You can’t even be the state that invaded Iraq. You have to be the country that invaded someplace like Iraq.” So I was happy to see Mary Katherine Ham spoof it.
And, for reference, the original:

What a disgusting lesbian PIG. You'd think that this network would be so embarrassed with her presence, but how could they when she's included within their anchor lineup [ie the loudmout fool that they just suspended for verbally assaulting a political conservative female]!!!!!!

After watching this, my only question is if Mary Katherine Ham is seeing anyone..
Lullabys, Legends and Lies| 5.27.11 @ 4:39PM
Yeah Mary Katharine Ham, she's hot, and smart too!! A great combination!!
Those Rachel Maddow commercials are stupid, and she looks stupid in a hardhat too!! If we had a chance to build a new dam, anywhere in this entire Country, it would be the friggin' Left that would shut it down. There's a fish here, or there's a plant there, or some ancient Indian writing on a cliff wall, so we'll have to sue you to stop building this well needed dam, just to save whatever it is we're trying to save, that nobody gave a shit about, until just now.
As an example of this, just look at the Lizard that they're trying to get on the endangered species list right now, and if they do, they'll stop all the oil drilling in West Texas. That's the Left that does that, that's what the Rachel Maddow's of the World would do, stupid hardhat and all. Screw prosperity, screw more jobs, there's a Lizard in trouble, and he might fall down an oil well!!
No, he probably won't!! He'll probably just avoid the oil well, and be on his way, no harm, no foul!!
The Hoover Dam could never be built with today's Enviro-Nazis stopping any and all progress in the name of saving the World, and oil covered Lizards. So you can't be the Guy anymore, or the company, or the State, and you certainly can't be the Country anymore that builds something like the Hoover Dam again, as long as we continue to listen to these Environmental Freaks. So let's throw these Freaks down an oil well instead, it'll be a good example to the local Lizards too, thus solving two problems in one fell swoop!!

Mr. Macomber,
Couldn't you make your point without giving Wesley Crusher...er...I mean...Rachel Madcow some publicity?
James| 5.27.11 @ 5:40PM
I loved MKH's hardhat! Too funny.
Bob Grant| 5.27.11 @ 9:56PM
This confirms my suspicion that we are living 1935 all over again. What, another round of WPA projects to get the economy moving again? Another dose of Keynesian economics to weaken the dollar some more? ....
...another thing. I thought Liberal pigs like Rachel Maddow had issues with damming up rivers?
alice moore| 5.30.11 @ 10:57AM
Rachel Maddow the Soviet Tractor Queen.
Bob Grant| 5.27.11 @ 10:00PM
...and another thing. That freeze frame. Is that a college boy or Maddow?
Oldefarte| 5.28.11 @ 1:45PM
Whatever it is or isn't, it certainly is a ......LESBIAN PIG!!!!!!
Kurt in S.L.C.| 5.28.11 @ 9:46PM
The Dimwitted Dyke is obviously pimping for high-speed rail here .What she neglects to mention,if she ever knew in the first place, is that Hoover Dam has paid for itself a hundred times over. She can't name one mass transportation project that can even cover operating costs,forget about the capital outlay, because there in none

I just want to say that even by butch lesbian standards, Rachel Maddow is pretty dern fugly.
