1. I can't stand watching Joe Scar in the morning.

There is too much smugness on that show, and most of the time, Mika is just posing.

3. I haven't trusted MSNBC since the Iowa Primary 2008.

John Edwards finished a very surprising 2nd, well ahead of Hillary in 3rd place to Obama's 1st Place.

I eagerly awaited Olberman's show to see his analysis of Edward's surprising 2nd Place.
Olberman NEVER mentioned his name or his 2nd Place finish.
The entire Hour was about the Horse Race between Obama and Hillary.
Rachel did the same in the next hour.
Not a mention of John Edward's name.


It was clear that the Talking Heads (even Olberman & Rachel) are doing the Corporate Bidding.
They are to the MSM as Alan Colmes was to Hannity on Fox,
the APPEARANCE of a Left Voice.

4. Morning Joe is just a corporate sponsored campaign commercial.

I'm drunk my 7:30 playing Joe's "When I was in Congress" drinking game. The flags waving behind his head are props for future campaign commercials. He is a disgusting intern-killing piece of shit.

But of course, that's just my personal opinion.

6. Pretty sure they fired Olbermann...

Pretty sure they fired Olbermann because he was a nightmare to work with and the donation was their excuse. They should have just dealt with it because he was the best thing MSNBC had at the time. He is a gem.

I don't blame any of the hosts for their network President being a crook. I have no problem with them, and I especially like to watch Reverend Al everyday. It's sort of to be expected, though, since MSNBC is part of a corporation, and corporations are known for doing shady stuff like that and favoring Republicans over Dems.

I will take Seth MacFarlane over Joke Scarborough anyday.
