Rachel Maddow Rocks Hard!!!
 
Just need to post it. How about that butch dyke brainiac!!!

Just the fact that she is on tv and telling the truth gives me hope for this planet.

Content of her character, not the color of her sheets (to badly paraphrase Dr. MLK today)

I like Maddow a lot. But, what's up with making alcoholic beverages on tv? I mean, the first time I thought it was amusing. Now it is just old, and it makes me think she is a big drinker...which I don't particularly like. I don't think it reflects well on her.

I respect her brain so much, she's a PhD, she's the first openly gay Rhodes scholar, etc., etc. But, dang Maddow, quit with the booze on tv. I don't care what you do in your personal life, but I think it sends a bad message to be mixing cocktails on your show.

I still love the show!

Reader 08-19-2011 08:37 PM

I rather liked the orange jump suit tonight.

Nat 08-19-2011 10:53 PM

I heart her. :)

SecretAgentMa'am 08-19-2011 11:17 PM

I love Rachel Maddow in all her fabulousness. She looks stunningly hot in her business suits, even hotter in her jeans and Chucks with her hipster glasses, and she's got the sexiest brain on TV. And I love the cocktail segments. We went out and got all the ingredients to make mojitos last weekend because she taught me how to make them. I love people who, like me, are concerned with doing things right.

Nat 08-19-2011 11:54 PM

Has anybody noticed that she pronounces the end of her last name "oh" like "meadow" and that most everybody else pronounces it madd-ow (rhymes with cow)?

Yep! She sure does.

Reader 08-20-2011 07:41 AM

I like Maddow because she loves dogs, is very curious about all sorts of things, is humble, is smart and well-educated and she cracks me up with all of the faces she makes.

I get such a kick when she jumps out of her chair and runs around and you see that she is really wearing her beat up jeans, the big butch leather belt and sneakers but on top she has her "work" tv jacket on.

And she is so polite to guests even when she clearly disagrees with them. I get the feeling that she could cut anyone to ribbons with her knowledge of the facts, her debating skill and her intelligence, but that she doesn't because she is too well-mannered to do so to someone she has on as a guest.

I like when she tosses in occasional remarks about her parents or Susan or her dog. She hasn't let her success go to her head and I admire that.

PS-Ever notice what long fingers she has? (I will leave that alone, but it's true!)

Yup. I definitely noticed her fingers.

Reader 08-24-2011 08:02 PM

Maddow's staff is full of such likeable kooks!

Did you see that crazy, zoo-during-the-East Coast-earthquake, Best New Thing update at the end of the show tonite? LOL.

Her love of classic cocktails is one of her more endearing qualities for me. I love watching videos of her on YouTube where she mixes drinks. She clearly has a love of the lore around cocktails and their origins, and the butch can mix a mean cocktail. *swoon*

To each his/her own, I guess.

You know what, I never looked at it that way. Thanks for posting that. Maybe I need to reframe and rethink those segments.

Grazie!

Because you mentioned her fingers...



I am absolutely obsessed with her fingers in this video. Plus, she's just so nerdy and hot. *longing sigh*

AtLast 08-24-2011 09:19 PM

have to say I admire Maddow a LOT!! Looking foreward to her and richard Engels upcoming special on the US decade of war in the first decade of the 21st Century.

Really like some that some of her regular analysts have new shows like Melissa V. Harris-Perry (buying her new book, Sister Citizen: Shame, Stereotypes, and Black Women in America soon).

I hated the blog criticisms of her partner- digs at her weight by mofo politics- but what could we expect?

It feels good to have a butch woman being just as she is on a news program that millions watch.

lettertodaddy 08-24-2011 09:20 PM

I love that she has a fat partner. It gives me hope. :)

OK, you all have convinced me that I should not think the booze segments are a bad influence. She really does seem like a connoisseur! And she looks like a natch behind the bar, too.

Reader 08-30-2011 07:31 PM

Rant - Sorry!
 
Maddow,

I hate when you aren't on. I don't care who fills in for you, it bugs the heck out of me that you guys don't post that you'll have a guest host on the show in advance. At least then I would be prepared and be able to decide whether or not to stop what I'm doing to come in to see you.

You're my current dyke pop icon and I'm sorry, but Chris Hayes, Melissa Harris-Perry or whomever, just don't cut it. I can watch any old political pundit at any time.

I choose to stop what I'm doing to watch you because you're a butch dyke political pundit with brains and a progressive mind and a clear, simple way of articulating complex ideas on a major tv channel.

I'm sure the femmes have additional items on their list of reasons for watching you, and I bet they are just as disappointed when you're not on.

Heck, I'd serioulsy rather watch repeats of you on the show than a guest host...unless you can get Barney Frank to sit in. OK, maybe Mariska Hargitay would be acceptable, too, on occasion.

And yet another vacation? WTH?

Kindly work more and vacation less.

lettertodaddy 08-31-2011 12:44 AM

I like Melissa Harris-Perry because in a way, I feel like she's the only regular MSNBC pundit who can match Rachel in the smarts department. I love her brain, but I don't want to take a tumble with her, if you know what I mean.

I miss the days when Rachel would have Ana Marie Cox on the show because the flirting between them was so hot and not at all subtle.


lettertodaddy 08-31-2011 12:57 AM

Maddow/Cox flirtations...
 
This one's better...

OMG-Maddow is actually blushing with Ana Marie Cox!! I love it. Thanks for posting, :)

Oh, I LIKE Melissa Harris-Perry, very much....as a guest. I just don't like anyone else as a guest host. Since I hardly watch any tv, and I actually stop what I am doing sometimes to go to the tv and put Maddow on, I get bummed when it isn't her.

When I see that her goofy, nerd self is off fishing with her Dad again, while I am home in Jersey waiting to be entertained after a long, hard day in the sand box, I get cranky. Well, OK....maybe part of that could also be because my own Dad inconsiderately left the planet before I was ready for him to do so.

PS-I obviously actually think she deserves a ton more money, staff and vacations. I think it is great when she mentions Susan, her dog, her parents and little stuff from her dyke life. To me that's part of the charm of seeing one of my own up there on the "tv machine". ;)

Reader 09-07-2011 06:51 AM



I swear I hope they run this ad (from another thread) on Maddow! Just to see her be RED in the face all night.

I say we petition msnbc and k-y to make it happen.

Can you imagine? She would be mortified!

Oh, make it so k-y goddess.

LOL!! I LOVE Maddow! Did you see her incredulous attitude, and eye brow raise after Chris Matthews interviewd Santorum after the Repub debate?

Martina 10-25-2011 08:24 PM

She's looking good in those ads for MSNBC. No girling her up in those.

Her entire show is available as a podcast. I only do the audio, but the video is available too through the itunes store for free (you just gotta search Maddow).

Not the whole show, alas.

You can get it streaming live here -- not pretty and you have to watch some chat to the right -- but

I love it when Maddow steps away from her desk sometimes during a show and has on her 501s and sneakers and not some matching pants that go with the top she has on. Nothing more comfy than mega-washed and worn 501s!!!

I watch her on the msnbc website every day. I just have never seen the commercials she is in, is all.

(true story: I don't even know what a podcast IS.)
