Uggggghhhhhh Joe Scarbourgho Shut up

Ok first he showed a clip of Harry Reid saying going to Conference will not work this is shutting down the Gov
Joe Replies, "Going to Conference doesn't shut down the Gov, that's a good thing" Of course he doesn't say that clip was from after11 pm last night.

Then he just said, "The President will not Negotiate" as if this is the Presidents fault.

Wow I know we know media lies but rarely do I stay up til 2am to actually watch House proceedings and since I did last night. I am AMAZED at how comfortable this ass hole is with lying and deception and NO ONE corrects him.

Sorry for being slow I finally understand why many of you come in hear screaming and going off at this absolute fuckery!!!!!!

I fell asleep to MSNBC last night and woke up to the creep. When Mika tried to talk, he barked at her, shutting her down with something like, "I won't listen to an ad for Obamacare. So I'm going to eat my oatmeal," then proceeded to blather on. Huh? Disrespectful, dishonest POS.

He was an obnoxious jerk to Mika and you could see her simmering. I'll bet money there were strong words exchanged at the next break. And she was noticeably cool towards him afterwards. I hope the show's director had something to say to Joe during the break, too. When he demanded "Do you want to hear what I have to say or do you just want to go to Willy?" he was downright nasty. I'll bet the tweets came in fast and furious right after that disgraceful performance, as well they should!

I have never seen Mika so angry and I'm not surprised they cut it out of there. Joe looked like an asshole.

behavior. I'm glad Dems are running so many women against the repuke men in red districts come 2014. These guys are gonna get pissed off and say some really stupid, brutish things to the women running against them, it'll be caught on videotape and the rest will be history. I can't wait!

It's like they cannot help themselves. The gender gap will continue growing and there's a lot more of us (I'm assuming that you, like me, is a woman - that doesn't sound grammar-wise correct but neither does saying I).

The problem is that these guys can't hear themselves talk. They get into an echo chamber with their buds who think just like them, but when they are forced into the open they can't talk to people unlike them. It's a brilliant strategy by the Dems to run women in these RW red districts. Get the women good and pissed and they'll turn out for sure!

always said if the women would just get their shit together, we could rule this country easily. Even on the issues we disagree on, we'd make it work for the greater number of people. It's our way (clowns like palin and bachmann are unbelievably outnumbered by the reasonable among us).

16. Especially among younger women.

And youth altogether. The ACA polls more popular among young people, probably because it let them stay on their parents insurance plans and they hate the Rethugs' outdated views on social issues, plus they're a lot more secular. Republicans aren't attracting youth to their party, especially now with their siding with lenders on student loans. They sure aren't attracting women with their rape-is-a-blessing comments.

just the other day but attaching an amendment that allowed employers to deny health care for "conscience" reasons like birth control. Schmucks.

19. Warning: Rant ahead.

Conservatives passed bills that allow rapists to have parental rights and Ryan introduced a bill that would allow rapists to keep their victims from having an abortion across state lines. They keep rape kits from being used on rape victims in ER's to identify their assailants because they might "flush out" the rapist's sperm and thereby his potential "baby." They want women to be brood mares and reduce us to the powerless entities we were before we got the right to vote and obtained the sexual freedom the pill gave us. In my opinion, that's the sum total of their fears and anger. That we threw off our shackles of sexual subservience to determined our own destinies. That's why conservatives champion rapist rights. Because their assaults take away control of our sexuality and being impregnated by them and forced to carry pregnancies by them restricts our freedom to decide our destinies.

and flushing out the sperm nonsense. How any woman votes for that party is totally beyond my comprehension. While I'm passed the age of having to worry about pregnancy, I promise all my young sisters I will go to my grave fighting for your rights. I loved your rant and agree 100% with every word.

I can't stomach him. I was still on MSNBC from last night so I saw a little bit of him whining like a petulant little child to an overview of the situation from Mika. What a gaping asshole. Had to change the channel.

The jackass said that the ACA was an entitlement program and that's why the Democrats like it.

They are bad for your health, cause psychological problems, elevate stress and can cause stroke and heart attack.
