74. In many ways this worse than Fox, MSNBC makes money off of Progressives.

Mon Sep 8, 2014, 02:36 AM

Sep 2014

They brand their Conservative forays in fog that causes almost equal disgust from Fox-bots. Of course the MSNBC line up will not condemn the brand for even something this blatant. Chuck was given a gift and obviously blew it. Obama was instantly aware. Playing gotcha Chuck failed and Obama can make a claim to classy response.

My daughter works student services in College. Recently she passed an exhibitionist caught on tape that was not noticed by multiple female students including her. When shown the tape she was not upset by the exhibitionist but her lack of situational awareness in a professional capacity. Chuckie has nothing to feel smug about when he reviews the tape. It is going to be an ongoing test how he explains this embarrassment. Chuck may well find out that as an exhibitionist he is not very good in that capacity.
