via Rachel Maddow On “Daily Show”: “Insulted,” “Embarrassed” By Bush, MSNBC Compared To Munsters.
Rachel Maddow appeared on “The Daily Show” Wednesday night, where she and Jon Stewart discussed the MSNBC family, President-Elect Obama’s policy knowledge, and George Bush’s Blair House snub of the incoming First Family.
You gotta love her. She is soooooo Americana with her whip-crack intelligence, geeky glasses, sweet personality, yet underneath the surface she is someone with gravitas, someone to debate with much caution. Watch out for that steel-trap brain of hers.
The two then discussed Maddow’s debates with Pat Buchanan (Grandpa Munster in Stewart’s analogy) and her interviews with Barack Obama, who she described as “a policy dork.”
“I don’t necessarily agree with him on everything on policy, but I want him to care,” she said of the President-Elect, adding that Bill Clinton’s policy-obsession was one of his most endearing traits as President.
“I know this is a small thing,” Maddow then said, “but I’m insulted as an American, and a little bit embarrassed as an American, that a guy whose salary I pay, President Bush, has decided that the First Family can’t stay in the Presidential guest house.”
It is time that we all complained about the current president being sophomoric, petty, and a snot.
