One of the dumbest aspects of Chic Bob’s anti-Maddow jihad is that he constantly complains that she should be focusing on something more important than whatever her topic is—something like education, health care, finance, etc.

And yet Chic Bob, a man not without connections and influence (as he constantly reminds us), spends the majority of his time pissing and moaning about Maddow when he’s not engaged in delivering painfully bad corporate comedy shticks. Mote, beam, etc., Chic Bob!

As for Tom Maguire’s “color commentary” (also mentioned in the Putz Periodic Heh), I guess he’s forgotten that Obama also met with Kristol, Will, Krauthammer, Brooks, etc. And that both Bushes spent a combined 12 years with their tongues up Rush Limbaugh’s ass. But Obama is using liberal commentators to control the media. Uh-huh.
