LOL; Soledad O'Brien is having a bad week
Today the Boss called her an idiot.

Yesterday, David Hasselhoff went all the way off on her. :rofl:

Well, good. She needs to learn herself more moderately, IMO.
I had the unfortunate occasion one day to hear her interviewing Jimmy Carter. She was obnoxious as she could be, dismissive, and tried to trip him up on detainee abuse by the Bush administration.

Bad move by Soledad. Jimmy Carter doesn't trip up very easily these days, and he put her in her place.

I don't like her flippancy toward people who know their subjects better than she does.

10. i think way back when, soledad was a katie couric understudy.
she sometimes strikes me as wanting to become the next Katie Couric...although, I have made a purposeful point, for quiete a few of these past months, not to watch any of the network news, especially not the morning ones.

17. I sure like your strategy on morning news, flordehinojos.
You and Thomas Jefferson would likely agree.

With him it was newspapers. He refused to take a newspaper.

You aren't watching the morning news shows.

Bravo.

7. Springsteen called
sobad o'brien an "idiot"? Do tell, in what context? :)

She is and I'm loving it that some have called her out on it. That's what's gonna change the media is when Dems or people who care about Democracy get on with the mediawhores and call it straight to their face.

9. Wow! Thank you, Cat!
That isn't the full quote in another thread on this..

"Springsteen was asked if getting flack about his political views, such as backing John Kerry in 2004, made him wonder if musicians should try so hard to be taken seriously on topical issues.

"They should let Ann Coulter do it instead?" he mused, with a chuckle. Then he said, "You can turn on the idiots rambling on cable television every night, and they say musicians shouldn’t speak up? It’s insane, it’s funny," he said, laughing."

I like yours much better :) "present company included.."

11. In all honesty, he only called her an idiot because
she is an idiot! And a very confused young woman.

15. On Thursday she giggled and said she was going to buy a "Vespa" and
Edited on Fri Jun-23-06 09:25 PM by KoKo01
she said "Wouldn't I look cute on one of those." She had twins not a year ago and commented the other day she has a six year old who is a "terror" in one of those "Mommy Segments" they do.

She's a cute trick ...sure everyone thinks she's the next Katie...including her own stuffed ego...:rofl: Soledad.....she's a real cutie all the way to the bank and her Nanny and Housekeeper, too.
