Ari Melber is spitting nickles on MSNBC

[madaboutharry]

Whoa! He is pissed. He is calling Ken Starr's presentation a disaster, calling him a hypocrite, and asserting that Starr was basically full of shit.

[malaise]

1. Well

Ari is right

[Hoyt]

2. Didn't think it was possible, but Jane Raskin sounds a full of it as Starr.

[malaise]

4. particularly given that it is her beloved RUdy who has 'made up facts'

That must be one of the best oxymorons of all time

[snowybirdie]

9. I Hate to be petty

but.... Ms Raskin's hair flipping is driving me nuts. Much like Peggy Noonan and Andrea Mitchell. So distracting!

[Hoyt]

10. LOL. No Joke.

[liberalla]

11. That and her theatrical 'sighing' annoyed me...

[2naSalit]

3. I just caught some of that...

It's hard to be an ethical legal wonk, atty, etc. and have some charlatan come out in front of everyone and try to make the case for a set of lies like Starr just did.

[Watchfoxheadexplodes]

5. Rudy good

Now a god-damned ghouliani history lesson

[calimary]

6. Well, Ken Starr IS full of shit.

[Wellstone ruled]

7. Oh Ari,chill out man.

You claimed Friday that Schiff and Company did not prove their case.

[madaboutharry]

8. Actually, he thought that the Obstruction of Congress arguments

were weak. The rest of the panel put him in his place fast and he backed down.

[Wellstone ruled]

12. Yup,he has a habit of doing that.

[pansypoo53219]

23. preventing witnesses? hiding everything including his taxes?

[jimfields33]

13. I said this morning I was going to try and sit through it

As I feel every American should especially if they have off or have the time. Well I feel I gave a valiant effort. I got through a bit of ken starr’s Speech but not the entire thing. I’m done. It’s a difficult watch. Thank you to those pressing on.

15. I tuned in in the middle of Raskin - I came in late because

I had much better things to do up til then: live chat with my daughter and her 6 month old daughter. It was a great deal more interesting, important and fun. I love using Duo on our Androids (like face time)

However I am beginning to think I would be better off to go over to my podcast list and listen to something more factual.

[Wounded Bear]

19. Started off listening to her...

but the Rudy "greatest American mayor" bullshit turned me off, and I turned her off.

[Katinfl]

17. Good for you

I watched last week but I knew I could not bear listening this week. I tune in when they take a break and listen to the commentators. Some sites are live blogging and I read about what’s going on. These idiots make me sick.......

21. I just found out that I have high blood pressure....

And started taking blood pressure meds last week, and my doctor specifically told me to NOT watch those sham hearings, and to cut down on television coverage. I have. I get cliff notes from the good folks here and from other sources off the net. My 2 neighbors and 2 beautiful nieces also keep their old Auntie up to date on the shit storms happening. I love those girls

27. Here's a solution for your high blood pressure...

We recently bought a smart TV and last night I was fooling around with the settings. I musta accidentally triggered the BS filter because I haven't been able to hear a single word that Trump's lying MFers have said all day.

[LiberalFighter]

22. I had a difficult time trying to understand them.

Of course, it didn't help that I knew the facts before hand and it didn't mesh. And they were trying to use excuses.

[Liberalhammer]

14. Shouldn't we thank Trump

For exposing Starr even more for the POS hypocrite he is. I can think of no rethug operative that deserves it more than him.

[Evolve Dammit]

16. McConnell's "we'll just plow through this until 6:00" certainly gives this the seriousness deserved.

They want to "plow through this" asap and get to a vote to acquit. GOP sucks. No intention of an actual trial. COVER-UP. Sing it loud.

[capechacon]

18. In this case, the fault, DOES lie in their Starrs...

No two ways...the guy's a duplicitous washout. Ask Baylor U.

[floppyboo]

20. I missed most of what he said as my brain started boiling early on

The bit about how England threw out impeachment early because they recognized how bad it was.
England has a parliamentary system. They didn't just leave a fookin void here!! They have votes of confidence. Decided in the House of Commons - not Senate. Ask Theresa May. GRRRRR!
And then going on to wax poetic on the Magna Carta. Barf!

What a pompous c**t

[HubertHeaver]

24. Ari has a firm grip of the obvious.

I would have said "Ken Starr is incompetent."

[PandoraAwakened]

25. K&R! n/t

[Cornell Engineer]

26. Ari Rocks...Gotta Love Them Cornell Boys!

An actual interview I saw last week...

Douchewitz: "President Trump can't be impeached for abuse of power."

Toobin: "So were you wrong back in 1998 when you said that President Clinton COULD be impeached for abuse of power?"

Douchewitz: "No...I'm just more correct now."

Anybody happen to know what the going rate is these days for selling your soul to the Devil?

[Duppers]

28. Morning Joe was really slaughtering Starr this morning

Tues morning. Was a pleasure to watch.
