I guess what happened to Lori Klausitis is none of our business, either, but it threw a spotlight on Scar...

...if he chooses it to be. Or in the case of the late Ms. Klausitis is if her family were to choose it to be or if there were actual charges. He's "public" as much as his mug appears on my teevee, but do we expect such statements from anyone else in the media about their private lives? It's bad enough we have a "voyeur journalism" like TMZ...if you're curious about Joey, I'm sure they've got plenty of "dish"...

...there'd been a couple threads speculating about the cause. I don't care for the guy...think he's an ego-centrical ass and the report of the divorce doesn't surprise me, but I really don't want to know anything more and, again, respect his right to keep it private. Nothing personal...

I think we're tempted to make a snarky remark (or I admit that I am) because he IS such an ass. I'm really pissed the way he goes after Paul Krugman, who I adore.

...this dude revises history and his role in it constantly. If he was such as great politician he's be in the Senate or Governor of Florida or even a higher office :shiver:. Instead he sits and bumps his gums and mostly verbal diarrhea comes out. He thinks he's the "second coming" of Raygun...all the rest of us think he's a world class ass...

I don't think Dan Marino announced his "love child" he had with another CBS employee on their NFL show,

That said, it is a personal matter and it is certainly possible his wife may be just as unpleasant...

While his co-host, Mika is saddled with a lifetime's worth of insecurity that comes across in very unfortunate ways in terms of her interactions with the bullying Scarborough and his minions, at least it appears she tries to be a decent, caring person. I wish her well. Scab, not so much.

from the professional.

An example: No one my husband worked with even knew he had a girlfriend (we dated 4 years) when he asked for the time off for our wedding.

10. Well, our opinion about what he should do is obviously not appropriate.

I wouldn't presume to give him any advice or lecture him one way or the other.

Have a nice day CT. This isn't worth a back and forth. Things rarely are.
