1. Maybe he has an intern who needs to be "let go"
And he doesn't have the heart to do it ...

2. the only one more annoying is
Edited on Wed Mar-19-08 05:28 PM by JitterbugPerfume
Pat Buchanan.

R Maddow makes up for the annoyance with the boneheads though. SHE is great

13. It's frustrating.
That should be Maddow's show. Gregory should be a talking head-if even that. And Scarborough should be getting both of them coffee.

3. Latest meme against Obama--working-class whites simply won't
vote for him--they're hoping it becomes self-fulfilling. Tell Joe Whitey he doesn't like this black guy, so Whitey says, I guess I don't like this black guy.

4. Scarborough is a racist dipshit...
also misogynist, very very creepy, phony, smarmy...

and oh yes I almost forgot...had a dead intern in his office, NOT wearing a stained blue dress. Resigned from congress to 'be with his family' - FROM WHOM HE WAS GETTING A DIVORCE.

Now if that doesn't make you think a bit...

7. Yes--I don't know why he and Pat B. are allowed to spout from their
racist-ass blowholes every night.

9. damn straight, had this been a democrat who had a dead
intern in his office, the press would have hounded him to no end, front page news, in bold, caps, underlined and highlighted in yellow. Instead dead intern joe gets a pass and a morning show all to his very own, as long as he spews the right lies. Dead intern joe knows who butters his bread.

10. Because the cable "shows" are just platforms for their other "shows"
It's all advertising/infotainment..
They interview each other, shill for each other's books/specials..

there's little , if any, news to those news channels

11. Scarborough and Matthews -- both bring out the "grrrrrrr" in me,
and not in a good way. Both are beyond rude. Joe jumps in to answer questions that are not put to him, shouts down the other panelists, and rolls his eyes and makes infantile comments while others are trying to take their turn. Matthews asks a question, then takes over answering it before his victim, er, "guest" gets even a couple of syllables out. Neither one shuts up long enough to hear what anyone else says, then they argue with what they think was said. Looked like Maddow was so ticked at Joe that she might walk off the set -- wouldn't have blamed her, either; Scarborough was treating her like last week's garbage, and Gregory let him do it. Disgusting.
