So was the NY Times right on r.davies getting $15,000...
a month, or rather his lobbyist firm? Because morning joe said earlier said we did not care if he did, and I got to tell you, I sure the fuck do care!

1. Why do you listen to those, IMO, Nazis = Joey the Scar and Mika, his preening enabler?
Stop listening to that BUNK and tune into C-SPAN where, at times, the people's voice comes through unfiltered. :shrug:

3. I used to watch Washington Journal exclusively...
but hearing some of my "unfiltered" fellow Americans was too depressing.

7. OK, but I can't understand how you can tolerate that "Morning Joe" sess pool.

They are the personifications of "smarmy PSY-OPS and disinformation." :scared: :puke:

I often get humorous visuals of the cartoon characters "Boris and Natasha" as Joe and Mika spew their trash ... just so I don't hurl chunks into my oatmeal.

2. I don't think the NYT would print it if it weren't true. As for McBush's
camp trying to debunk it, ask yourself how many times they've flat out lied to us, and draw your own conclusions.

5. I know they have lied many times but...
the story is either true or false. The NYT has also printed BS (see judith miller and her pre-war crapola). This is not about me drawing my own conclusions, I simply want the facts. Is that too much to expect from our media?

8. Yes, sadly, it is. You'll get the facts if it benefits the media. And
you're also right about the NYT. They're not exactly innocent to printing stuff that's not true.
But since there is an ongoing feud w/the McBush camp and NYT, I would imagine they'd try to not provide further ammo for them.

I'm glad this is happening; we will get to the bottom of this hopefully. Davis has lots of skeletons in his closets he'd prefer people didn't dig around in, I'm thinking, so have at it-bring out the bones.

4. Morning Joe is only for sheeple who can't deal with inconvenient truths
Yes, of course it's true about Davis. Scarborough is a pathetic shill for the GOP, the party that has long believed people are waiting to be told what to think and will believe anything as long as it's repeated many times over.

So far they've been right.

9. Is it just me, or does Rick Davis look like Jar Jar Binks?
