The Best Moments From MSNBC‘s ’Apocalyptic Night’

We‘ve brought you some of MSNBC’s “best” moments from last night’s election coverage (here, here, here, here, here, and especially here). But the crew over at the Daily Beast has a few more irresistible clips (and some great headlines) from what they‘re calling MSNBC’s “apocalyptic night”:
O’Donnell: Rand Paul Will Bring the Apocalypse
Matthews: “Would You Say, ‘Call Me Dick?’”
Olbermann: Tea Party Is ‘Universal Solvent’
Watch all the Daily Beast’s Clips and read their descriptions.
UPDATE:
Not to be left out, Townhall captured this moment from an MSNBC guest. First, the setup:
Here’s the young, pretty, Democrat Latino, Alicia Menendez, race hustling her party’s latest target, Marco Rubio: the newly-elected and highly-talented Senator from Florida. On the one hand, liberals complain (like NBC’s Chuck Todd did just a moment ago) that the GOP is “all white men,” but if a female, a black, a Latino, etc. identifies themselves as a Republican, they are, as Alicia Menendez says here, not the “real deal.” In other words, if you are not a white male and choose to freely identify as a Republican, you are a betrayer to your sex (females); you are an Uncle Tom or you “act white” (blacks); you are “white washed” or not the “real deal” (Latinos).

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 3:55pmThat was some of the best TV ever. I smell Oscar, Grammy, Emmy, Daytime Emmy, Tony and every other crap award they give. Oh I almost forgot, One of them will surely win a Nobel Prize for the show they put on last night.

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 3:54pmI guess if the $$$’s are enough MSNBC can get anybody to go on their one sided freak show and badmouth someone. I mean anyone. This Alicia Menendez seems to be just another pawn in trying to paint dark pictures of a good person. To her I say, thank you for letting America know you found your price. Marco Rubio is a fine and decent man but despite all that is good about him it seems MSNBC will continue to fabricate stories against any Republican, any conseravative who loves American while they bark like snapping dogs at George Soros’s table like little lap dogs begging for scraps. How disgusting and humiliating to see people like this show us how un-American they are. This sideshow of MSNBC circus freaks who have decided to betray the country that has been so good to them for those 30 pieces of silver. I hope one day they wake up before its too late and just go ask America’s forgiveness for turning their back on this great country. Alicia Menendez comments, excuse me while I go puke!

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 3:49pmI’m so confused. I simply cannot keep up with the diversity rules and into what category each person fits. It does seem the Democrat propaganda media and the Democrats are way ahead on the road to advanced degrees in race baiting and ethnic pigeonholing. I think perhaps simplicity should be the order of the day so as to avoid any bias one way or another. Here’s a novel idea: How about we all describe ourselves as Americans?

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 11:43pmThey just needed a Cuban American on MSNBC to somehow persuade fellow latino‘s they shouldn’t like Marco Rubio because he doesn’t believe in a Welfare state. Do you think people come here to join our welfare system or because of the free economic system which our country uniquely provides? I think there are many latino’s that would disagree with Ms. Menendez . . . the anchors treat her as if she is a spokesperson for Cuban Americans.
Report Post »MSNBC has really fallen to the bottom, their “commentator’s” became so vindicative as the night went on it reminded me of the liberal media after Bush v. Gore. . . certainly not one of their best moment. Listen to how they talk about Beck, they are just so resentful of his ratings

Posted on November 4, 2010 at 12:29amJust remember, when the “Tea Party” movement first started, at one of the rallys, people were talking about recalling Bob Menedez and how bad he was……guess Alicia remembers how much they wanted to dump daddy.

Its not for the reasons they claim it is b/c they are under new mgmt, COMCAST, who AXED the head radical in chief Zucker, so all these baboons are on notice to clean it up or else. Not like their ratings could justify not being fired.
Still though the hate just flows out of these progressive rejects. I hope there is a Congressional investigation into the media and I hope this bunch is investigated for criminal activity. Wouldnt surprise me to hear they manufactured stories and were paid for it(thus illegal angle) Would be nice if they could get nailed for accepting money under the table, who here thinks they arent!?

Let us default and have to stop this rampant spending. I can survive the economic downturn for a couple years while we shift to a producing nation like we used to be instead of a consuming nation. Heck, it would be a great time to start a manufacturing business, maybe locally made textiles and clothing.

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 3:31pmWho really cares what’s on MSNBC? They are a bunch of idiots that pat each other on the back and tell each other that they are doing a good job. I watch NBC to get the local weather then I go back to FNC. They wouldn’t know news if it bit them on the butt. In fact if one of them ever got a news story they would have to butcher it to their own point of view.

That‘s why they’re called elections. Rand Paul- Empowered by the people, Presidential Czars- Just empowered
Report Post »To Mr. Olbermann- If corporations and banks are people too, what does that make unions?
To Ms. Maddow- The tea party does NOT stand for fresh faces or washington outsiders, it stands for ideals- small government, lower taxes, more power to the people. If someone inside washington believes that, why wouldn’t the tea party vote for them.

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 4:33pmBINGO! That is exactly what is bothering them the most. The Republicans used the same rules that the Dems have played for years and beat them at their own game. They also have their panties in a twist because so many people who don’t fit their Dem-assigned cubby holes actually beat them: Marco Rubio, Lt. Col West (retired), and Michelle Bachmann( FORMER Speaker Pelosi’s #1 target)

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 5:08pmMadcow managed to skip over a few dots when attempting to connect them. Skipping a few dots ends up with nothing but squiggly lines.
The Tea Party supporters in Indiana had several good candidates they supported in the primaries. All were fresh faces with varied experiences. In the 7th inning, the IN GOP strutted onto the field and installed Coats on the mound as the presumptive candidate, backed by their money and clout. The other candidates never stood a chance. Coats won handily.
With Coats the Republican nominee, who else were the Tea Party supporters supposed to vote for? Duh. You think we wanted a retread, another well-worn Washington insider with the GOP’s stamp of approval? HELL NO! But the choice was made. Welcome to politics, American style.
So, Madcow, work a little harder at finding something to ridicule. It isn’t the Captain Obvious suit that makes your mouth look big.
