Sen. Sam Coburn likes un-emotional people

So it is, Republican Sen. Coburn has used TV and radio talk show hostess Rachel Maddow as an example of someone emotionally expressing themself. This is apparently antithetical to his own beliefs and, by extension, those of his party. In other words, if you are going to demonize (destroy?) someone, you should not be emotional about it. The good Senator really let the genie out of the bottle on this one.

Article excerpt:

Coburn used the example of an MSNBC anchor to make his point: “Look at Rachel Maddow. She comes at me on the basis of emotion. She demonizes me. I don’t want conservatives to win on the basis of emotion. If we lower ourselves to the level they operate on, we hurt ourselves and our arguments.”

P.S. True, I may have taken the words Sen. Coburn spoke out of context but not the personality I heard behind them.
