Listening to her speak makes me so angry. She is on Bashir today and her shrill argumentative "I can yell louder than you" style of debate is a large part of what is wrong with the political landscape today. It seems to me that the Repugs think that the louder they yell and the more shrill they are, it makes them right. I am of the old school style of debate...I've been known to read books on rhetoric for fun (yes, I am a nerd...and an English major nerd at that!). I would think that politician and political pundits would/should be trained in classical rhetorical and debate methods. They are supposed to be the experts on this in theory...
All that, and the fact that Cupp is a blooming idiot in my book, make me want to chuck the TV...ok so maybe it is mostly that she's an idiot...

(1,788 posts)She just refuses to listen. It was driving me crazy. Martin was trying to have a real discussion-this birther crap-and she was acting like it's a no big deal....the southerns seem to think it's true...this is a problem, perpetuated by her side.

(476 posts)That was my first ever introduction to her and I was miffed at the idea that she was considered a smart repug...then again if you look at some of the others the right considers intelligent, she probably rises closer to the top.
And Cenk absolutely destroyed her in that whole clip...she was completely outmatched. Come to think of it, that is probably why she (and others) think they can just yell louder to drown out the facts...I seem to remember using that tactic when I was a kid throwing a temper tantrum and my parents used logic and facts with complete calmness. It was infuriating and I just screamed and yelled louder - then I stopped being 5 years old and matured.
