Reaching new levels of arrogance, a smirking Joe Scarborough climbs up Sherrod Brown's ass

Hot DAMN, was Scarborough even MORE annoying than usual this morning.

Sherrod Brown was a guest, and Scarborough brought up the Allen West "Communist" remarks, and said to Brown "You were called out over similar remarks comparing Republicans to Nazis" and Brown shot back "not really" and Scarborough just kept going, saying "Conservatives came after you following those remarks" and Brown replied "YES...one just DID."

Context: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/03/05/sherrod-brown-apologizes-_n_831836.html

Today's show was especially grating. Scarborough sat there with his beady little eyes peering out from behind his specs, being loyal to his show's "product placement" as he sucked on his Starbuck's iced mocha or whatever the fuck he was drinking.

Mika was also a huge pain in the ass as she kept flogging the Ann Romney MommyGate, asserting that the story is still "BIG."

Why waste your morning watching a not very bright Repug and his pet woman?

...the better it is for the Democrats. It will give people time to look at the facts of the story instead of just the Republican spin. Voters will eventually see that there is a huge difference in a rich mother staying home with nannies and assistants than one that is struggling to get to work on time and get her kids to the baby sitter and rushing to get them home on time in the evening... Democrats should not rush this story off the front page, in my opinion..

As one lovely cartoon put it,

"It must be harder to be a stay-at-home mom when you have so many homes."

And my contribution:

Think of the challenges--just trying to remember which Cadillac you left your purse in.

the first few replies are invariably someone saying "why watch morning joe? you'd be so much happier if u blah blah etc etc"

never fails

i watch (sometimes) just to see what today's talking points are. same reason i listen to hannity and our local idiot screamers michael berry and joe pags

on topic: i think this topic is the perfect way to seperate miss two cadillacs and mister six houses from the rest of the 99%. keep talking, mitt.
