....i am now more fascinated than ever. george will, gergen, scarborough, laxalt, noonan.....etc. okay, i feel a little better about all of the insane people at mccain rallies now.
it's been a tough few days for me - and i'm sure many others - with the ongoing ridiculousness.
but this made my day and i watched, mouth open as this moment occurred.
okay, i know this is quite short. most on kos are way more eloquent than i, but this video had to be shared and i couldn't hold it in.
laxalt hits the nail on the head and puts the smear argument to rest. she is disgusted with people who call themselves conservatives propping up smear artists.
UPDATE - yay for commenters, thanks guys. didn't add a tip jar at the top, and haven't seen instructions on kosopedia as to how. it's in there, but way kinda down there (*wink! starbursts*.)
transcript follows.
KING: Michelle, are you not supporting the ticket?
LAXALT: Look, I think -- I can't believe the tone of this conversation. Here we are, three conservative, loyal Republican women. And we are talking about a female who could be the vice president of the United States of America.
In my estimation, she is being used unfairly as a tool by a team who, by the way, do not even support, nor does their candidate, equal pay for women for equal work. So if she is going to be the traditional vice presidential attack dog -- which I concur with Bay, that's very much a traditional role -- why didn't her male running mate, i.e. the candidate himself, man up and speak to those issues, calling his opponent essentially unpatriotic, calling him a terrorist?
I'm sorry. This is not the Republican Party that Bill Buckley, that Paul Laxalt, that Ronald Reagan raised me on. And I don't believe the American people like this kind of dirty politics. If they can't win fair and square, they shouldn't trash the other guy.
