I am not familiar with MSNBC...I don´t get them on cable over here.
are they nutty like this but on the opposite direction?....if so...that´s wrong too.
but I wouldn´t call that "legitimization"....this crap isn´t news broadcasting...it´s propaganda.... and 2 wrongs don´t make a right.

Actually - 2 wrongs can make a right. It accurately represents the breakdown in the US. We have our news (Fox), they have theirs (MSNBC), people in the middle have one too (CNN - I hope that it realizes the opportunity it has to really define a central position and become the legitimate channel). I appreciate that the networks are showing us the cards that we know they are holding anyway.
If anyone wants to learn anything, they should watch all 3 channels. It will force them to think a bit harder for themselves when they try to find out which side is lying to them at various times.

Limbaugh is an abomination of God. Nothing more than a drug addicted coward who makes money by tearing others down using a moral scale that he can't even live up to. Advocating a failing republic for patisian gain is not something an American does.

My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

Well, I'm sure Obama's New World Order will take care of Rush Limbaugh soon enough.

The United States has not "broken down."
We go through these bouts of hyper-partisanship from time to time.
1796 through 1808 or so: Hamiltonians v Jeffersonians. All of the papers during that stretch make the current Fox or MSNBC efforts look tame.
1850 through 1865: North v South -- several hundreds of thousands dead for a finisher.
1918 through 1925: Evil internationalists (Wilson & Dems) v. reactionary isolationists (Harding et al). Teapot dome scandals etc.
1990 to present: current spate of "us v them"ing.
As the good book says, "this too shall pass."

Seamus- you forgot the 1820's when his opponent's accused Andrew Jackson's wife of baring an illegitimate child outside of marriage(In other words, being a *rhymes with "DOOR"*), with Jackson promptly accusing them of harassing her to death after she suffered a stroke just before the election.
But yeah, it does make one wonder what their true purpose is, trying to actively encourage others to oppose a newly inaugurated President.
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
