Morning Joe belittling Mika for her alcohol problem

[itsrobert]

He keeps mentioning Mika is drinking vodka and mixing it with drugs in the morning. She needs help, not snide comments from her co-host.

1. Are you serious? I couldn't work with an abusive person like him.

[Billy Burnett]

2. How's Lori Klausutis?

A Death in the Congressman's Office

3. She should ask him about the dead intern under his desk.

I do my best to not not watch him.

He knew Florida 2000 was dirty and helped in that
coup too.

4. She should hand him a necktie.

5. Making jokes about a person using vodka and whatever to get to sleep is hardly belittling

I heard him saying that to someone when they signed off, I thought it was funny. That's how many people get to sleep, especially if you only have a few hours to sleep.

6. Classy.

7. Joe's always been a bit of an ass.

However, ever since David Shuster handed Joe his ass during the Democratic convention coverage he's been a real dick.

That said, Mika used to have a backbone but has since misplaced it somewhere in the studio and still hasn't found it.

8. I heard Joe talking about this...

Did Mika really do this?

She used to be very talkative and sharp.

Now, she's like a frickin doormat. It's almost maddening to watch her. She sits there in
that chair, saying absolutely nothing. Most of the time she "Uhhh huhhh...yes...uhhh...huh...oh I agree"s
her way through most of the show.

I've never seen anything like it.

Maybe the drugs/alcohol explains her behavior. It's...not right.
