OH . My . GOD . Hahahahahaha. GO STEPHANIE!!!!

Mika and Stephanie Ruhl were discussing yesterday's exchange on Velshi and Ruhl with that yahoo Moore lawyer.

Stephanie to Mika: “Enjoy kissing your cousin and taking your sister to the prom, HonkyTonk!” as an EXAMPLE of how she could have gone stereotype to stereotype with him.

I have recently discovered Stephanie and Ali and have so much respect for them...they have a great show! They know their facts, are very sharp and do not let anyone get away with any GOP BS.

It frustrates me that most tv reporters and commentators know less about current affairs than I do. But there are exceptions such as Jake Tapper and Velshi and Ruehle. They do their homework, they’re smart, experienced and don’t put up with nonsense.

I thought Stephanie was going to come unglued. Her eyes widened as she looked first at Velchi and then back at the monitor to the lawyer. It would not have surprised me if she had crawled across the desk to address that idiot with only her face filling the camera frame. She was pissed.

Go, Stephanie! This woman takes no guff from anybody and she is smart as a whip, too!

The very first time I saw the show I loved it!!! First I was happy Ali was back on tv. I have always loved him from his cnn days. Ruhle was slightly different for me at first. But I think that had to do more with me then her. I turned off the news when I went to bed 11/8/16. That black out lasted a while. When I finally re-tuned in Ruhle was new and very different and I wasn't sure what make of her.

Then not long after, by chance I caught the Velshi and Ruhle show. WOW! What ever my thoughts about her changed.

I made it a point to watch their show ever since. The only other shows I watch with the same joy and dedication; Rachael Maddow, Lawrence O'Donnell, Joy Reid, and the Game of Thrones.

Who ever paired these two for this show was very smart and I thank them.

She's going from one stereotype to another because that Moore lawyer fits the stereotype of Alabama repukes to a T.

and has spent time living overseas but nobody accuses her of relating to child brides. Maybe the vikings or saxons were into that stuff back in Europe.
