OMG! Rachel Maddow fucked up BIG TIME (but she caught it, so we're cool)

[derby378]

On Countdown with Keith Olbermann, she just said that Andrew Jackson was impeached and almost removed from office in 1868. It was Andrew Johnson, sweetie. Sheesh.

On edit: She caught it. Even threw in a "D'oh!" in apology. We love ya, Rachel. Always have, even when some of us nudged you in the ribs.

:hug:

[derby378]

10. I'd still trust Rachel Maddow over George W. Bush any day

:rofl: :P

[JackBeck]

12. And you base that on what, exactly?

I guess being a Rhodes Scholar doesn't allow one to misspeak.

[XOKCowboy]

17. And your doctorate is in what?

Give her a break. Johnson, Jackson. I'll bet she corrects it.

[malaise]

[Hissyspit]

16. She just corrected it. Not a big deal, either. I've done it too, in general conversation.

[derby378]

18. I think Fridays Child said it best...

"Damned teleprompters! Can't trust 'em."

Why can't she have her own show?

Oh, I know.... she is smart and she knows how to put them in their place.
