Politics and Whatnot…

Rachel Maddow, “Dyke”

with 20 comments

I really like Rachel Maddow, and the fact that she’s a lesbian is neither here nor there, as well as common knowledge. But did you know she was a “dyke”, as well? It’s true.

The photo below is of a 21 year old Maddow being interviewed by Out magazine after being the first “out” lesbian to win a frickin’ Rhodes Scholarship! (member when that stuff used to matter?) 

In the interview Maddow says, among other things, “…blah blah blah, so much of my political involvement is tied up in being a dyke.” Well. It’s so retro to remember back when people had to be defensive about their sexual orientation….takes me back.

She’s always seemed really smart and I enjoy her new show (even though it’s a little boring), so I guess I shoulda known she was all educated up and whatnot— but Damn! Stanford Grad, Masters from Oxford in Political Science, Rhodes fucking Scholar, that’s Rachel Maddow. (Just by comparison and never wanting to miss a chance to piss on Sarah Palin, the prom queen attended five colleges is six years before finally obtaining her B.A. in journalism from the Idaho State…. And oh yeah, she wants to run the country.)

Rachel Maddow— hot educated lesbian, once geeky dyke.

  1. She was such a cute baby dyke! If only I had 1/4 of the intellectual capacity to date a woman like Rachel Maddow I would die happier.

    • I am happy in my relationship of nearly 25 years but I must admit to a sigh or two every night when I turn on the Rachel Maddow show. She is more than brilliant. I haven’t found a correct word yet. She sets an example. I am so proud of her. She makes ME a better person and makes ME like ME more.

      Thanks Rachel for all you do. You have no idea how many you have helped.

  2. She’s impressive, I agree. I read her Wikipedia page a while back and was pretty wowed.

    Also: purple hair! Pretty nifty.

  4. That Rachel Maddow is a ho-bag plain and simple. And 21 in that picture? Come on – she looks like Bob Saget on crack!! Can’t watch her on that news channel either – dyke is the correct term.

    • If I were a lesbian… ah if only. Not only is she cute, but she’s a genius. I admire her to no end. :)

  5. Whoa. Get your hate on much hairy? Never heard someone called a “ho-bag” AND a “dyke”

    Doesn’t that make her like, bi— which would actually preclude the the dyke part?

    Hairy, have you thought this through?

  6. I would say something cynical, mean spirited, and elitist but then I would be like her.

  7. Can’t stand her. when I hear her voice I want to throw myself off of a roof. She thinks she is witty, but she is NOT. She is boring and annoying. I have nothing against gay or lesbian people… AT ALL. I only came here to confirm my suspisions… She is just plain annoying and a complete fool. I hate how she tries to use “dry” humor. She is so far beyond DRY.

    Keith is borderline — she is gag-me!

    • Go spew your hate somewhere else. Who cares what you think. Most love her at least in MY neck of the woods. yeah yeah I know you have a right to your opinion. Rachel, attention must NOT be paid. You are a dream come true to most who love intelligence and love that you expose the bad guys of our country. Never stop certainly not for this this …..

  8. Smart is sexy regardless of ones orientation…and home girl is hella smart. She’s a refreshing face and mind in the contact sport of political reporting…and as far as people like “Hairy Palmer”, you are like the narrow-minded “Pat Buchannans” that reflect the prevailing ignorance that this country back from its true potential.

    I wasn’t aware that ‘ho-bag’ was a straight-specific term. But way to show your prejudice against heterosexuals. “Hairy, have you thought this through?” Might wanna make double sure you brought your own A-game before you try calling others out.

    -straight black male

    She isn’t a reporter. Nor is Keith Egghead. They are commentators. They spew biased opinions. Nothing more.

    “people like “Hairy Palmer”, you are like the narrow-minded “Pat Buchannans””…. come on, really? A “straight, black male” lumping people into groups? Bravo for double standards.

    Come on now

  10. I think she kicks ass. She’s cute, active, and very smart. She’s a good journalist and I enjoy her show. Anyways you should try not to judge someone you’ve never even met, you dont know them or there situation. try to keep an open mind everyone. and its amazing we have a black president. hopfully in my lifetime i can see a strong educated woman in office.

  11. She’s a dedicated Leftist above all else and MSNBC is the perfect place for her. She would never make it if she actually had to be balanced.

  12. a normal reporter tells the facts. Maddow and olbermann have the more difficult job of finding the facts about the republican party that make them all look like fools…

    without people like her the public would have a harder time learning about the shit they pull all the time.

  13. Has anybody ever seen Rachel Maddow and Ron Reagan in the same room at the same time?

    When gay men and women libs start looking alike, it must be what they refer to as ‘evolution’, eh?

  14. I Love The Rachel Maddow Show.. she is so fvcking smart, and it’s the sh|t when she calls out all the politically correct big time gangsters around the nation.. I never knew she was gay and I refuse to judge ppl by their look/style but I can’t say the thought never crossed my mind.. Shocking to see it is true here on the web.. Too bad, I was hoping that once I achieve fame and multimillionaire status that I could woo and whisk her away for a night(s) she would never forget! All that intelligence turns me on sometimes
