Rachel Maddow
In a wonderful sendup of wingnut conspiracy satire, Rachel Maddow explains how we ALL are Al Qaeda! Bet you didn’t know you were a terrorist, did you??
The New Civil Rights Movement has a great clip from Maddow’s show. I can’t post it here unfortunately, as WordPress doesn’t format the MSNBC video player. (or if it does, I can’t make it work!) Check it out, here!

In a conversation with Republican Senate candidate from Kentucky, Rand Paul, Rachel Maddow asked about recent comments he made regarding the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Rather than give a direct answer, Mr. Paul danced around the question, leaving the impression that he was fine with the idea that a private businessman should have the right to discriminate against anyone he wants, and that the government didn’t have the right to tell him he could not. Mr. Paul defended the law as it applies to government, but would not come right out and say either businesses had a right to discriminate against anyone they liked, or they do not. He may have just handed the election to his Democratic rival.
