Although not a well-known figure outside the Show-Me State until recently, Governor Nixon just does not seem like the kind of politician who got to his current position by making promises to the blahs.

He's more of what people in St Louis would call a "hoosier."

"Sizzle reel" is the current term of art, and Megyn's got it, no mistake. Move on over, Nina Totenberg!

I look forward to the day when Faux News employees are the only people <i>watching</i> this drivel.

We had that "Hope" thing back then-- today, even the sci-fi movies predict everything will just get worse and worse.

I always figured he'd come back as a cockroach, but that's just me.

Does Bill O'Fuckhead have any kids? Mine are (gasp) millennials, because they happened slightly late in my life. They have friends who are visibly of Asian, Indian, Middle Eastern, African, Hispanic, European ancestry. They all sound exactly like Northern California kids. It's funny how being born here does that.

One does wonder why they bother, though. Do they think a lot of black folks watch Fox?

Yes, and I suspect that this was the whole point of the exchange. Megan Kelley debates BillO and pretends to argue the liberal side of it while slipping in digs at Gov. Nixon and the President, both Democrats, and no one else. Sneaky, Fox, but we can see right through that little gambit.

Oooh, snap! Bill doesn't like it when the chicks sass-talk. No falaffel for Megyn!

But at least Megster got in a few good digs at the blah president and the democrap governor, so I guess Faux can't kick her to the curb quite yet.

<i>President Obama made all sorts of promises that didn’t come through,</i>

of course, being actively blocked and berated by the wingnut/teabagger/Fox Noise contingency at every move had <i>nothing</i> to do with the situation at all.

Amirite?
