Rachel Maddow's Takedown of American for Prosperity's Tim Philips

Wow. Just wow.

I just finished watching the Rachel Maddow where she talked with Tim Philips of Americans for Prosperity, in what I perceive as her fiercest takedown yet. (And her last interview with Rick Berman was a doozy!). This isn't the first time she has talked about the obviously astro-turfed but self proclaimed "grassroots" organization or even with Tim Philips, the president, but this one takes the cake. She normally does a great job talking with people with different opinions because she can lead them to hang themselves on their own words. But what set this interview apart came at the end when she spoke candidly about how she felt about the work that AFP does. I won't spoil it, so check it out here:



Favorite line: "You, and the folks who do what you do, are a parasite feeding off of Americans fears."
