Rachel Maddow -Palin Drone: 'Butch You Got the Show! Try and Pretend to Read the News Anyway.'

I caught a snatch of Rachel 'Butch' Maddow on the radio coming into work this morning. As the only voice on MSNBC giving off any trace of testosterone, Maddow works up the volume and speed in wall-papering over any pretensions of dialog on MSNBC.

Now, it seems that her sole task is to bring down Sarah Palin.

Butch, you're in over your head - out of your element. Palin is not some back-slding guest of Ellen Degeneres or one of the geldings with whom you work! Palin hunts Griz! Hunts Oil Companies! Takes down, dresses and mounts the heads of Republican and Democratic pocket stuffers.

Cheerleading for Kid Hope is one thing, but Sarah Palin will eat your liver. Which might be a fine learning experience for you.
