He's one of those "spell my name right" guys--not afraid of controversy, thrives on a bit of occasional hate.

Try the HBO site--maybe they've got something there.

Sometimes you just have to let them talk. No rebuttals needed to prove their stupidity, just their own words.

She was belligerent, self -important, interruptive, unapologetic when confronted (by Rohrabacher), insensitive when she was barely tolerated and her comments were just left hanging in the air without any response from the others, she was completely obnoxious the entire time.

Did I mention she got on my last nerve?
I would like to bet she will never be invited back, and would like to give medals to the men for remaining in their seats and not just carry her off the stage and stick a sock in her mouth.

I guess she was a VJ, if they were still using the term that late. I was in college, and watched MTV sometimes. One of my friends named her cat Kennedy after this MTV personality.

She is one very obnoxious person. Yelling louder and interrupting do not make you more right, just more intolerable. I would have had security toss her and the guy from California (who dressed him tonight anyway?) out and got someone else.

yap constantly and never let anyone else speak. Make absolutely certain no other point of view is heard because you know your own is utterly wrong. It's bad enough when there is only one of them yipping constantly. When there are two or more, they form tag teams and shut down anyone with a shred of politeness.

Either this has to dawn on the man and he either chooses to be a right wing show or he has to restrict the opposition to one guest at a time.

I thought it was nice to see the goofy Republican get nailed talking out of his ass. This Kennedy person didn't do all that bad, very hit and miss. Bill crushed as usual. The only real downer was that Bashir didn't get enough speaking time. New Rules killed. I liked it.

the only intelligent one on the panel. The other two were motormouth morons. It was a total waste of Bashir's time and he was the one I wanted to hear from. I didn't even bother to go on line and watch the over time show figuring that it would be more of the same. I would not sit through a show that bad again and will just turn the TV off next time.

Once I saw that dipshit Rohrabacher was going to be a panelist, I switched channels. Sounds like my missing Kennedy was an added bonus. Mahar's show is guest-driven---if you see that he's (yet again) invited a sub-human like Ann Coulter on, find something else to watch; life's too short........

how Kennedy kept saying that it wasn't about race and the reaction to Brewer was about her sex.


Seems like she was going out her way to downplay the racial aspects.


At least thats the way I saw it.
