MSNOW: If you keep interrupting Rachel mid-sentence during her show audio podcast to run commercials, I'm out. You've done that TWICE so far in the new episode to run the same crummy Angie's List commercial. Use commercial breaks for commercials, but DO NOT interrupt Maddow mid-sentence with a guest

You can't talk about corporate capitulation to limits on free speech and the importance of courage while you yourself are too timid to mention your own network's treatment of Matthew Dowd. Your silence is noticed. It corrupts your commentary.

For the second night, you talked about how terrible it is for a corporation to punish free speech, while failing to mention that your own network did exactly that to Matthew Down. You're demonstrating the very "chilling effect" of commentator self-censorship you keep warning about.

You leaving out that obvious example, which is RIGHT THERE on your own network, suggests that you've already begun to capitulate to "the powers that be", avoiding topics that might bring uncomfortable pressure on you. Because MSNBC was wrong to do what it did, and you're not standing up to them.

Your guest warned about people beginning to self-censor their political comments. But Chris, you're ALREADY doing that! In your summary of examples of media communicators being silenced for their views, you omitted ANY mention of your own network, which fired Matthew Dowd for saying truthful things.

I hate to say it but at this point I really do just hate Texas. When I see all the Texans flocking to my state (Colorado), I just want them to be sent right back home to leave us alone. They've shittied up their state so badly that I've lost any nuance in my outright revulsion toward Texas.

I would have really liked to hear his entire answer though

Tacos? Kitties? That plastic film you peel off a new electronic?

Yes, you truly do look fine. I know that's not the most important thing, and you should also hear sometimes that you're a good person (which you are), but you definitely look fine.
Now that I've made a fool out of myself with obvious flattery, I'll does myself out. Heading to a Pride party!

Listening now, and loving it!
(Also, it's pronounced "PUH litzer")

And Mississippi slides even further down the educational black hole. Seriously, this is just embarrassing! WTF is up with your state?

The "orthodox" NPS is complying with everything, like removing people's histories from websites and park information because of the anti- minority purge. What will the AltNPS do in response?

Amazing feat, but we still haven't forgotten that he betrayed us when he voted AGAINST a bill to let Americans save money on health care by importing medications from Canada. Nobody ever holds him accountable about that.
