1. MSNBC is nothing but a tabloid.
Although these days its more of an infomercial for Obama.

11. No, but I was at the Pre-Debate rally...

at the convention center and we Hillary supporters outnumbered the Obama supports 3:1.
I expected the Obama people to outnumber us by 2:1.

But is was better that way. When the cameras cut to outside the convention center, the American people got a chance to see who the new President will be.

8. Did you even watch the video?
Or is your post just another example of barging in? That clip wasn't an "attack piece" on Hillary.

3. The blanket talk worries me as well.
I mean WTF? Iran is not going to attack anyone when any more than 2 nations combined can easily wipe out their forces.

Maddow again brings intelligence into this debate and even Pat had something interesting to say.

4. In a bizarre way, Rachel brings out the best in Pat
It's like he's debating a favored niece or granddaughter; he still disagrees, but he's somehow more thoughtful and tempered in his responses than he was in the past.

6. Well I expect pat to know basic military theory.
Tho it is nice to see them both understanding that what was said was not very good overall.

This hostility towards Iran is helping nobody. Everyone knows that if Israel we will respond as we have a treaty. Same with Taiwan.

9. Maybe someone whispered in Pat's ear...
..."Hey! Stop acting like a butthole toward Rachel Maddow! She's gonna be HUGE soon, so you'd do well not to piss her off!"

I would be elated to hear that Rachel gets her own show. It'd be funny if some other news agency snatched her up before she could sign on to MSNBC. It'd serve MSNBC right, too, for dragging their feet on getting this brilliant woman her OWN show!

13. He's found out she knows her stuff and can make a fool out of him if he's not careful.

12. Pat Buchanan is actually pretty sane on foreign policy and I was glad to hear him
speak favorably about what Obama had to say, I agreed with him. I thought Obama & Clinton's responses were completely different. Hers was much more similar to the GWBush approach: threaten, punish.
