MSNBC Circle Jerk...
I'll tell ya one thing, if you turn on Tucker or Tweety or "Morning" Joe randomly, you just can't tell what day it is or what has happened that day. One or the other of these idiots will mention the day's event and then segue into what I call the 'cassette'.

The 'cassette' occurs when the moderator or one of his or her 'guests' (read: MSM shilling assholes) starts spewing their well-rehearsed 'views' and 'global' positioning as it were, on the issues of the day, as though their thoughts and opinions were so profound, so remarkable, that they bear repeating incessantly, utilizing the exact language used for the last 6 weeks at least. there are so many examples of this that I can't even begin to quote them without throwing up.

the first time I ever had to endure this as an adult was in a non-political venue. When I was attending Dental School, we had this so-called hot-shot professor who lectured only on clinical crown contours as the tooth emerges from the gingiva (gums). Now of course, this was not his only titled 'lecture', but it was simply amazing how every subject, no matter how distantly related to 'crown contours' was schlepped back to his 'cassette' and it would go on and on and on and we'd be laughing the whole time, mouthing the next words to come out of his yap.

In the same way, Tucker, and Tweety especially, start quickly and pick up speed once given their 'in' and woe betide anyone who stands in their way, particularly tweety's because he'll literally and figuratively spit all over you. Lately, he's mocking the WMD arguments and the use of the word 'Homeland' calling it 'russian' in nature. Isn't he just so...so... CREATIVE! Wow. If he'd been reading DU 5+ years ago, he'd have been way ahead of the pack on this one.

I will say in their defense that it's WAY BETTER than T.J. or Tony the Idiot on CNN, or anyone at all on Faux.

2. Tucker says========
so Deputy Dawg Thompson at one time supported abortion, what was wrong with that. He changed his mine. Tucker the asshole who is constantly berating Hillary because she voted for the Iraq invasion, along with 90- other senators. She should be held accountable, but old Deputy Dawg we should let him off. Why 'cause he's a republican.
