Maybe you can help me. Though I am child of once-world-known cardiac-pulmonary specialist, tied for first place from medical school entered after military service as flight navigator at age 17 during WW II; watched –from first four years at Stanford University, through education -training -teaching at Berkeley; listened –at dinners, parties, holidays –to parents' guests in medicine –art –science –Russian royalty –epidemiology –law, one appointed to the bench at age 25; observed –scholarly -creative -effective, powerful, energetic —genius, intellectuals with ego, but Still I am not sure.
MSNBC Assumption–
With my up-bringing, background difficult to comprehend your Assumption -Viewer So Dumb– the Way to ‘keep’: “entice” with non-stop teasers of Next topic, effective perhaps on the way down low-range intellects –as you diss the rest? But Amazing/odd: Jon Stewart has Yet to do such on the DAILY SHOW, yet I need NOTHING to remain watching…. Oh well. Maybe: Stewart hasn't heard of dissing viewers.
MSNBC Neverminds
The Endless ‘teasers’ and so very dated premise viewer possessed of Serious ADD –needs never-ending admonitions to ‘stay put’ –long long ‘next up’ promos sprinkled so heavily as to force crossing and/or rolling of eyeballs; the readers –dripping emotion all over news copy obviously written by others, and shouting mis-placed emphasis on subjects it’s obvious, they don’t even understand; the egregious Biased closed-minded Larry Kudlow, indifferent to standards –journalism -ethics –propriety, his violations of Your “rule” on campaign donations on-going –yet continues employment; while same APPLIED on superb Keith Olbermann “violating” rule but not submitted –or spelled out to him, STUPIDLY engendered firing/quitting. –Clever way to relieve heads of Powerful, uh, power? Ah well….
Removing Keith Olbermann... perhaps landmark of stupidity in programing... Perhaps MSNBC's chief chef: Has Too Many Jobs, Too Big a kitchen/ego Prob? Just not Smart Enough....
I do get, sorta: the MSNBC talking-heads' neurotic, compulsive need to whinge on an election nearly two YEARS away. —So utterly irrelevant –un-daVine politic –sometimes fills the entire air. But Oh well, when it begins –handy daVine remedy –remote *click* –pronto –till now.
Until Tonight
During commercial break of program I was watching, flipped over and caught: Lawrence Whatever’s rant on/about a vote of Sen. Rand Paul.
WHAT Do You Pay—
Now I admit: haven't completely deleted the image —the Rachel Maddow 'journalist' —duded up so macho to out-macho soldiers in Afghanistan last summer she was "interviewing"/slicing -dicing to make their words Fit her premises. What a trouper-"reporter." —Didn't distract from her biased lousy worthless "reporting" but: Hilarious. So funny: out-loud giggle.
–Certainly do not have Perfect or photographic memory, but with the one I’ve got: cannot ever recall seeing –hearing a thing even remotely like that uh, piece by Prince Lawrence –EVER –not even by a rabid right-wing nut job. So offensive: as to nauseate.
So Between the Maddow babbling-head, who, if single word –sentence –paragraph missed, no worries, it re-winds -repeats and ad nausea, INHALE lather-rinse-repeat and re-winds -repeats and ad nausea –and the Lawrence of ego-gigantum demonstrations, even with all my life experience –with all kinds, I am unable to determine: Which one is the biggest gasbag?
Truly, to describe that diatribe by Prince of Pompous-stan Lawrence as “insulting” –to unfortunate viewer, is as to describe Grand Canyon: “ditch.” – Technically correct, but rather wide of the mark, no? His arrogance Even fits with the name of his hour-long dog-pony show: "the Last Word" –utterly pretentious when: it's merely 'Mid-road' Word –and more often 'the Rehashed Word.'
Do let me know
Does One cost you more than the other? Do you pay the towers of babble: by the word –the rant –the amount of oxygen they take up? –Or: By the number of complaints received? Or you don't pay any attention to those, either?
My impression widely-shared –MSNBC’s prince Lawrence Whatever: the biggest ego maniacal bag-o-gas ever to be shot on to air –anywhere –ever, or what?
Regardless Whichever one you say is biggest Gasbag: I am sure –have decided, NOT to take in any more gas –I’m full up.
From Now On: I stick with un-leaded –high-octane –valuable -Premium: brilliant Dylan Ratigan. –Cannot get enough, at any price, even if I have to lower myself to clicking on MSNBC.
NOTE: Meanwhile tomorrow night 3-31-11
Dylan Ratigan will, finally, be on air extra hour: Town Hall Meeting on price –alternative –issues –Solutions, Remedies of Energy –with panelists former CIA director, oily good ol' boyT. Boone Pikens, others at Oklahoma University. Though Ratigan conversation with Pikens was, putting it kindly, poor the Town Hall –SHOULD be repeated week-end –ALL week-end, in place of the prison pollution MSNBC mysteriously throws up, from Friday thru Sunday, but probably won’t. –Would anyone want to even see who is watching that prison trash? oh well.
Maybe: enough people -in Congress will watch –enough force President Obama to actually make an Energy plan –get a Clean energy bill out of the Congressional lumps on dirty-energy payroll.... –We've only been needing/waiting since oil "embargo" of 1973....
