Morning Joe. The hits keep coming.

[mnmoderatedem]

Guiliani was on.

First Mika starts out with "Since you ARE America's Mayor".

Guiliani makes the predictable false equivilancy of the IRS scandal. They're letting him get away with it...

Mika follows up gushing as to how well Christie performed at the news conference and how he "answered every question". Gawd is there a bigger suck up....

1. The Producers of Morning Joe should send DU a fruit basket....

How can people complain about the show if they don't watch it every day to know what to complain about?

5. We watch so you don't have to.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: you don't have to watch. I don't have to watch. But there is no denying that it is the best morning tv for those who like to have some news on while having coffee and getting ready for work. It is usually serious and intelligent, as opposed to the fashion an cooking and celebrity fluff on the network shows, the blatant lying on Fox, or the disaster of whatever CNN has become.

15. +1

[DrDan]

6. +1

their audience would drop significantly if only DUers would simply change channels.

[Atman]

7. I welcome the balance.

Having an asshat like Joe on, followed by Choke Toad, then Mrs. Greenspan, affords MSNBC credibility when they point out that they're actually NOT just a left-wing Fox. Fox devotes no such block of time to Democratic programming and guests. MSNBC, in that regard, can truly claim to be " fair and balanced."

[Atman]

2. Predictable GOP love-fest after a bad day for the party.

They're repeating the early segment now, asking Michael Steele, of all people, to compare how poorly Obama has handled "scandal after scandal" vs. Christie's awesomeness.

Puke-worthy.

[BobUp]

3. A shame

I can't watch MSNBC, no cable or sat, but it sounds like a circle jerk to me. One less opportunity for me to keep the barf bucket handy.

4. mika thinks cristie did just great

yeah right..

[Atman]

8. She and Joe are friends with Christie.

They've always been very open about how much they love him. He's been a guest several times, that's why they bolstered their panel with friendlies today.

[livetohike]

10. I remember both of them in love with Huckabee back when he was a Presidential

candidate. Look how that worked out

[CTyankee]

14. Heileman jokes that MJ should be renamed "Good Morning, Trenton!"

He's got it nailed...

[mucifer]

9. It's all about image not content. Hopefully people won't eat this up

But, Americans have a very short attention span and tend to enjoy the image.

Lets hope the investigating will help

But, you have to remember scooter libby and tom delay and how some people are above the law. Curious to see if christie is above the law like so many others.

13. Rarely Watch Joe...

Used to, but have now found that it's Mika with her "adoring eyes" for Joe that turn me off. Used to watch C-Spam faithfully until the call-ins got so weird. So now, mostly no TV until later at night, but do check local channel for a short while to find out about weather. Not that it's all that great either. Some days I wonder if they are just doing a do over of the day before.

Of course, there are times when it gets kind of hairy. Did a quick switch for about 4 minutes of Joe & heard him say he thinks he's STILL Presidential material, and so it goes. TV now off & need to walk my 2 chocolate labs.

Ho-Hum...

[Bluenorthwest]

16. Almost no one watches his show.

Look it up.

[mucifer]

17. I'm talking about christie's image in general and how he manipulates people.

[Ligyron]

11. I try to watch that show, as there's not much else on, but it just keeps getting worse all the time.

[kydo]

12. Thats why I don't watch that horrid show. Will it be replaced by curling

for the winter games? Gawd I hope so. I know nothing about curling other then it is way more entertaining the mourning joes brain passing, sorry morning scum.

18. The intern is dead.

Perhaps Joe should give an explanation as to why a dead intern was found in his office before he asks questions about the non-scandals (IRS/Benghazi).
