Joe scarborough is an asshole and his baldheaded buddy...

[coco77]

Scarbourough went off on Michael moore this morning because he told wolf bitzer like it is. He and his the bald headed asshole began going off on him because of his weight and all overweight people. He said Michael Moore has no right to preach about health care because he is overweight. Michael can lose the weight but Scarborough can't lose the ugly.

[spanone]

1. sticks & stones may break his bones........childish pundits....can't take these fools seriously.

[coco77]

4. I can't stand that arrogant bastard...

he preaches his bullshit every morning and No I don't stay tuned in but I look in to see what garbage he is spinning every now and then.

[AlCzervik]

2. Did he talk about David Vitter making a mockery of marriage?

[loyalkydem]

3. This is a guy

who loves conservatives. No big surprise there.

[Strawman]

5. The visual of Joe's "baldheaded buddy" is disturbing

[SammyWinstonJack]

14. ...

:evilgrin:

[AndyA]

16. We had a Judge here in Oklahoma who used to play with his

"baldheaded buddy" during trials.

Wonder if ole Joey does the same.

Joe is a right winger, through and through. He has the look, the spin, the tone, he's got it all. Everything about him screams right winger.

Can't stand him.

[coco77]

17. He was riding on Keith Olbermanns coattails...

and he also was making fun of Olbermann this morning as he does every morning saying that he should chill out on talking about Bush and Cheney and then they mock his voice.

[SoCalDem]

31. wash your brain ...you naughty boy

:evilgrin:

[Maestro]

6. Joe is a complete asshole!

Was Moore on with him or was he attacking him without Moore even being on?

[coco77]

9. No. Moore wasn't on with him...

he played the clip from Bitzer and then went on a rant and the suck up asshole went right along with him. The clip will probably be on the msnbc website.

[wicket]

7. I'd rather be fat than have a dead intern "turn up" in my office like Joe did

:evilgrin:

[stanwyck]

8. Very stupid show this morning.

Joe is hovering in Coulter territory these days. He kept saying how dishonest "Fahrenheit 9-11" was but claimed he didn't have time to explain specifics.
He also seems to be under the (false) impression that Bush received the popular vote over Gore.
And then he kept attacking Moore for being overweight.
I guess Limbaugh gets a pass.
I'm about to give up on this as my morning show.
Joe just doesn't have depth. I think he's hoping for a Jon Stewart vibe. Instead he comes off like a snarky fifth grader who repeats what he heard on talk radio.
It's very adolescent.

[coco77]

11. He also likes to talk over everyone on the set...

he also ask the woman who does the weather if she believes in global warming and when she says she does he went off on her.

[Beelzebud]

10. Fat people can lose weight. Joe will always be a fucking asshole.

[Sticky]

12. Conservatives have nothing left to defend

so they mock Liberals and Progressives constantly. I cannot stand Joe Scarborough or John Ridley - it's a morning circle jerk that offends me in every way.

I can't believe MSNBC isn't being bombarded with outrage from the left.

[coco77]

13. You just reminded me...

I have planned to email them about this asshole.

[stanwyck]

20. I don't know what has happened to Ridley

he used to challenge Joe and provide some balance.
Lately, he's been Ed McMann.
And poor Mika! They stifle her. Her own father said she's a "mouse" on the show. And, he's right.
She needs to get a better gig.

[coco77]

21. Ridley is just happy to be there...

he also thinks he is the be all and know all of all subjects. Usually, Mika tries to get a word in and they just talk all over her. Where and when did her father say that about her.

[stanwyck]

29. She reported this herself, on the show

about a week ago. Joe kept pestering her about when her father was going to come on the show. She said he'd finally watched the show...and told her: "Mika, you're like a mouse on that show!". And she is. Which is a shame. She's clearly smarter than Joe.

[coco77]

30. That is why he always tries to talk over her...

because she brings up relevant points and he doesn't want them heard.

[FredfromSpace]

32. Mika seems to be intelligent, professional and serious

Ending up on that show with those idiots must be TORTURE for her.

You can see it in her face.

Maybe they could give her a REAL NEWS SHOW in old Scarble-Row slot.

I'd watch that IF they let her do a serious job.

[coco77]

36. .I always watch her face when they are discussing issues...

and as soon as she brings up a point arrogant ass scarborough talks over her and never lets her finish her point. Then the baldheaded on jumps in and if he gets to far out of line, scarborough gets angry and tries to belittles him too. Today, scarbourough was talking some junk about shucking and jiving as they were discussing something about black people. Those terms went out in the 70's. The jive turkey:rofl:

[FredfromSpace]

41. She also squirms and tries to look away, and even walked off at one point...

...yesterday morning.

It was only for a moment, maybe a trip to the "washroom" that she was sick of waiting for, but even doing so at all suggested a total disgust and disinterest with her co-"hosts."

Someone should save her from this hell and give her a real show, if they can even remember what something like that might look like ANYWHERE on cable-TV "news".

[stanwyck]

38. They are. Joe keeps complaining about the emails

so keep them coming.
He continually responds to any criticism as coming from the looney left. We're ALL extremists to him. If you disagree...you're a "far left lunatic."
He has no idea what the temperature is out here.
I have no idea who MSNBC thinks will continue to watch this show.
There just isn't the level of dialogue needed to sustain an audience.
Might as well switch over to CSPAN's Washington Journal. Even your garden variety of rightwing caller comparing Bush to Christ is preferable to Joe's hackneyed babble.

[partylessinOhio]

15. Bring back IMUS!

Cocky had a dead intern - Imus didn't.

Abrams don't know dick about running a network. He needs to go too.

[me b zola]

23. That's what gets me

Abrams is allowing hit pieces being done on his msnbc's highest rated show by another host of a msnbc show. It kind of rips a hole in the talking point that all the networks/cable shows care about is ratings. There is obviously a political agenda.

[coco77]

25. He like scarbourough try to play

that fair and balance garbage they are full of it...

[coco77]

28. Who is running that station anyway...

to put Abrams in charge, all that he wants to talk about is dead wrestlers.

[me b zola]

39. MSNBC made a decision a few months ago to have more infotainment for ratings purposes

Blathering on about the dead wrestler is mostly about ratings, a lot of people eat that stuff up.

That's where, imo, msnbc shows that somethings are more important than ratings. Phil Donahue is a prime example of this. His show was one of the highest rated msnbc shows at the time that they cancelled him because Donahue was questioning the * administration during the build up to the war on Iraq. To allow an idiot like Scarborough (who only had decent ratings because he followed Olbermann) to then target Olbermann smells of the same kind of rotton stuff.

[sandnsea]

33. So he can shit all over Michael Moore?

And make it popular for the braindead "independent" white male to do it too?? No thanks. I like my right wing whackos straight up, thank you very much. If you want to get rid of these whackos, then get rid of ALL OF THEM and stop pretending any of them are telling the truth.

[rhiannon55]

18. And doncha love the way he brings up "when he was in congress"

every chance he gets? I guess it gives him prestige, or something. What a douchebag!

Joe blows! :rofl:

[stanwyck]

19. I bet he can't go 3 minutes without a

reference to "when I was in Congress".
We should time him. But, then we'd have to watch.
And I'm done. I gave it a chance.
Today capped it for me.
No more Joe in the morning.

[coco77]

22. Let him tell it he was the moral authority ...

when he was in congress and everyone looked to him for what to do and what decisions needed to be made.

Where's the apology to Al GORE from the tendentious and obtuse RIDLEY and all of you blowhards (except Mika, who is WASTED on you)? Dan ABRAMS knows how to screw up.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Ridley

John Ridley
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Ridley is an American film director, actor, and writer.

Ridley got his start as a stand-up comedian. He eventually was hired as a writer for sitcoms such as The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and Martin. He began to concentrate on writing and wrote his first novel Stray Dogs which became the basis the 1997 film U-Turn, directed by Oliver Stone. Ridley also provided the original script for the film Three Kings, starring George Clooney, Mark Wahlberg and Ice Cube. But his script was changed so much by director David O. Russell that he only received a credit for the original story. He also tried his hand at directing with the film Cold Around the Heart.

He is one of the creators of Urban Entertainment, showcasing short films and animation from minority filmmakers, including his own works: the animated cartoons Undercover Brother (the basis for the film starring comedian Eddie Griffin) and Those Who Walk in Darkness, featuring the voice of rapper Lil' Kim — which itself was the basis of a novel of the same name written by Ridley.

Ridley is a regular panelist on the MSNBC daily morning show Morning Joe, and an occasional guest on the network's nightly program Scarborough Country. He hosted the short-lived Movie Club With John Ridley on American Movie Classics and has written The Authority and The American Way for DC Comics. He has recently become a regular guest commentator on American Public Media's Weekend America in a segment called "Good News, Bad News, No News" which reviews the week's news. He co-produced the film Bobby. He wrote the play Ten Thousand Years about kamikaze pilots in World War II. On the weekend of August 19, 2006, John co-hosted the syndicated program Ebert & Roeper while film critic Roger Ebert was on medical leave.

26. His baldheaded buddy is is John "Everybody Smokes In Hell" Ridley

he is not an asshole

[coco77]

27. How about he is a...

what comes out of an asshole...

[UTUSN]

34. Yes, he *is* an a-hole. See the thread in my post #24, where

he went off on a long-winded rant scolding GORE last Thursday, 2 days before Live Earth, saying that GORE needed to abandon the event he has been working on for years in order to stay with young GORE, that if GORE showed up at any of the concerts he would be losing all moral authority he might have.

He and SCARBOROUGH engage in the most MINDLESS drivel and talk over each other. He basically rambles, full of himself and *is* an a-hole.

[coco77]

37. Maybe, that is Ridley...

responding to the asshole remark.

[sandnsea]

35. Oh no

OMG, no. They may as well put on Alan Keyes. Has he ever taken a stand on anything where it required racial courage??

[Gabi Hayes]

40. did you see his swinish, dishonest, cowardly Huffington Post screed?

in which he referred to Newsweek as a LIBERAL magazine?

you wouldn't believe all the comments that bought into his ridiculous 'reasoning'

some posters weren't buying, but anyone who premises their argument on the idea that Newsweek is somehow liberal.....what does it say about that person's credibility

he has none, and is as pompous and self reverential as they come

and then there's the fundamental dishonesty

what a surprise
