HamNation: Away in a manger

The title’s misleading, I’m afraid. There is a manger interlude, it is the best part of the clip, but it comes after 2:45 of New Hampshire’s finest telling MK pretty much nothing about the election. It’s cool that Townhall is packing her off to these events, but as I’ve said before, they’re wasting a valuable asset by turning her into a walking microphone. We can watch Joe Public declare his undecidedness on any cable network at any hour of the week. Less fat, more Ham!

I do love the Truther/Hillary pan shot, though. Get this girl a weeklong guest shot on Red Eye and a T&A-free O’Reilly segment, stat. Click the image to watch.

I think the Baby Jesus statue is placed in the manger on Christmas Day…

Great job MK.

Miss Ham is as bewitching as ever.

She’s so that 70’s show

In Catholic displays that’s true. The Hammer is obviously of the Protestant persuasion. I laughed at a friend’s nativity scene that was beautiful because it had everything but the baby Jesus. She had several nativity scenes and none had Jesus. I actually whispered to her that she forgot something. She said, ‘we put the Jesus there on Christmas’. I prefer a Nativity scene with Jesus or it’s not a Nativity scene, but that’s not what the Vatican says. I just learned what Catholics do about 3 years ago so don’t worry Hammer it’s not intuitive.

But I LOVE New Hampshire people. They are some of the coolest people in the country. They are incredibly proud of being the first primary, and I am glad that they are. They are level headed, and they understand the issues. I much prefer they have a meaningful primary over NY or California. It needs to be small for it to be grass roots. New Hampshire rocks – and especially the people of New Hampshire. They have lots of towns that are more like Mayberry than Mayberry.

doesn’t she totally bug anyone else? I find her completely annoying and she speaks like holly hunter.

wryteacher on December 14, 2007 at 11:39 PM

I like Holly Hunter! And MKH, even IF she is not a Gator or a Thompson supporter!

Gatordoug on December 14, 2007 at 11:49 PM

I’d watch her interview anyone.

Less fat, more Ham!

What kind of remark is that, AP? Are you trying to give the girl a complex or what?

I mean, here it is the holiday season, when everybody naturally puts on a few pounds, and you are subtly implying that MK (who’s from the South, where obesity is pandemic) might be suffering from too much fat. You’re so … insensitive.

Attacking MKH is bad enough…but Holly? Holly? It is civil war buddy. Noon. Be there.

Limerick on December 15, 2007 at 10:07 AM

wryteacher on December 14, 2007 at 11:39 PM

Hmmm. Doesn’t like the sound of MKH and HH. Might wryteacher be from…uh…north of the Mason-Dixon line?

eeyore on December 15, 2007 at 10:24 AM

a T&A-free O’Reilly segment

…is there even such a thing??

Does anyone put in the Magi/Kings on January 6?

eeyore on December 15, 2007 at 10:31 AM

I have a nice nativity display up in my house but it’s nice to remember the real Bible facts about Christmas. (You can fact check in the first two chapters of Matthew and Luke.)

The magi weren’t there that night
The star of Bethlehem didn’t shine that night
No mention of a barn
No mention of animals
No mention of an inn keeper
The angels didn’t sing
It wasn’t December

Other than that everything else is correct.

Mojave Mark on December 15, 2007 at 11:38 AM

Did I just see MHK making flirty talk with the tall, strapping, Bass shop guy or what?

Jimmie on December 15, 2007 at 11:50 AM

Did MKH say the bass shop is called “Dum Bass”? That’s pretty good.

aero on December 15, 2007 at 1:06 PM

Mary Katharine is hot even when she’s cold.

MKH, if you have to trek back to NH come Primary time, let me leave you with these two words of adoring advice:

Down parka.

Always Right on December 15, 2007 at 1:39 PM

did anyone else have the problem of the video freezing for a couple of seconds from time to time?

urbancenturion on December 15, 2007 at 2:16 PM

I was overwhelmed…that was a wasted 4:40 of my life…i’m old can’t afford many more of those.

oldernslower on December 15, 2007 at 2:44 PM

p40tiger on December 14, 2007 at 9:59 PM

That’s the word…… bewitching

Ernest on December 15, 2007 at 3:42 PM

who’s from the South, where obesity is pandemic

wow dude, I could explain to you a little more about the ‘pandemic’ but it would be extremely bigoted and include government cheese. . . something you obviously know nothing about.

But it still doesn’t make sense to me why you would have a Nativity scene without the baby Jesus (I know that’s what the Catholic Church says). But without Jesus, it’s just a barn and farm animal scene with no meaning. Since I took that hit about Southerners being fat, I’ll jab a bit at the Catholic Church saying it’s just another example of the Catholic Church taking Jesus out of the religion. After Christmas, you take the Nativity scene down so nobody sees Jesus.

We used to have life sized display scenes here with music where you could drive by every year that even included Mary, Joseph, and Jesus fleeing to Egypt to escape Herod’s wrath in the last scene. Now the rage in the ‘fat’ South is LIVE Nativity scenes with real people and real animals. . . including the baby Jesus.

Before a few years ago at my friend’s party I had never seen a Nativity scene without Jesus, and would have never imagined it.

ThackerAgency on December 15, 2007 at 7:12 PM

We always let one of our children put the baby Jesus in the nativity scene on Christmas morning.

Connie on December 16, 2007 at 12:10 AM

ThackerAgency on December 15, 2007 at 7:12 PM

True to form, as usual.

Connie on December 16, 2007 at 12:16 AM

I like Ham, but the video supports my desire to stay far, far away from New Hampshire. BORING!

saved on December 16, 2007 at 8:13 AM

Let’s see a show of hands-how many think it was too cold for anyone other than MKH to find Manchesterites that have an opinion?

Anyone get a forecast for November 2008?

MSGTAS on December 16, 2007 at 8:34 AM

I would do almost anything for a spot on Red Eye. I love that show, and would sooooo fit in!

SouthernGent on December 16, 2007 at 11:24 PM

I want the soundtrack!!1
