Rachel Maddow vs Pat Buchanan

[AnnInLa]

From an AAR email:

"Rachel Maddow takes on Pat Buchanan. Part one of the two part interview begins Wednesday morning at 7:30am on the Rachel Maddow Show. Part two, which will air on Thursday's show, has Rachel discussing sexuality with Pat Buchanan."

(this ought to be good....hope she takes him on about his "white supremacy" views in his new book.)

The loofa guy.

Thanksgiving brought us the one-month anniversary of Bill O'Reilly's disclosure on his show that "to protect my family" he had settled with Ms Andrea Mackris and her lawyer Benedict Morelli, thus cutting off what millions of O'Reilly haters had hoped would be a protracted season of public humiliation for Fox's apex bully. The settlement established that all parties agreed there had been no wrong doing and as an earnest of good faith O'Reilly (if you believe the New York Daily News) had paid anywhere from $2 million to $10 million to Mackris, nice money if true, though not as nice as the $60 million Morelli had originally suggested to O'Reilly as a satisfactorily round figure.

But there remains the mystery of the transmuted loofa, about which I had been hoping for some pleasing courtroom exchanges. Let's pick up the thread in the court document lodged in Nassau county, N.J., by Morelli on behalf of Mackris.

11.06 pm September 1, 2004.

O'Reilly calls Mackris, a 33 year-old innocent from the Show Me state, working as a producer on the O'Reilly show. She, poor lamb, says she thought it was about business and told him she'd call him right back. At this point, we surmise Ms Mackris may have activated a recording device and with the tape rolling, dialed the boss, who promptly gets down to business, launching into what the complaint harshly stigmatized as "a lewd and lascivious, unsolicited and disturbing sexually graphic talk", about how he imagines he would handle business if they were in the West Indies.

First he'd get two wines into Ms Mackris, "maybe intravenously". Then, "You would basically be in the shower and then I would come in and I'd join you and you would have your back to me and I would take the little loofa thing"
