I hate Joe Scab
But what he is talking about right now makes a whole lot of sense. Obama needs to put this to bed NOW!! He needs to get up and fight back over this lipstick thing. Because it's not about lipstick, it's about sexism. They are branding him a sexist and it's going to work unless he calls them on it.

1. haha
Andrea said to Joe and Chris "If you guys are so smart, then how come you're not the nominees?" And Joe was saying "Obama should say 'McCain is hiding behind a woman'" and Andrea said "Um, I think that would make this worse."

2. Why
Why would that make it worse? It's true, he is using Palin like a human shield.

5. For gods sake, it's not about sexism. You are the perfect audience
for this bullshit. Why not educate yourself? THIS is what was said prior to the lipstick comment. They're taking everything out of context and then lying about it. Get it? Same as it ever was:

"John McCain Says He's About Change, Too - Except For Economic Policy, Healthcare Policy, Tax Policy, Education Policy, Foreign Policy And Karl Rove-Style Politics"

Obama was talking directly about McBush's policies and said nothing about Palin.

Andrea said "If you guys are so smart, how come you're not the nominees?" It's just distraction stuff as per usual from that crew.

morning news show to watch. So gradually I started giving Morning Joe a try, was even DVRing it for a few weeks now. But I won't be watching him and his annoying side kick in the future, I'm done. I should've listened to my gut feelings that it would come to this ranting shit . . . at times Scarborough can be reasonable and professional, but then he fixates on some issue, like Shaivo for example and goes way over the top. Mika thinks she's cute but she's not, she's hard and unappealing. Contessa Brewer would be so much better.

He goes off the deep end and goes on cringe-worthy rants while his co host repeats the same snide comments over and over for days and days and days on end. Do they forget people are watching? Sorry to say Joe, you lost this viewer, and I'm sure I'm not the only one. How is it entertaining, or news worthy, to obsessively go on and on about one subject, and then admit, 'We'll talk about whatever the McCain campaign wants us to?' What an awful show and a disgrace those two are - no wonder it gets such low ratings.

If Obama ran an ad as dishonest as McCain is running I'm sure Scarborough would go on a righteous tirade. Instead, because it's a from Republican, it's brilliant strategy! The ad's NOT TRUE Joe, it's not about winning the news cycle, it's about truth and reporting such, it's not okay or to be admired to blatantly lie about and smear a man. Joe, you have no integrity.

CNN is the only one left in the morning. : (
