He is such a douche!
Was just extolling the virtues of the Keebler elf.

(1,684 posts)It does not hurt my liberal sensibilities to see right wingers, even douche bag right wingers, on MSNBC panels. I like seeing them pushing their BS agendas, and then seeing their BS exposed as actual BS. Otherwise, it is boring.

Thank goodness they got rid of Greta! That was a step too far for us all.

(54,437 posts)If I remember correctly, Hewitt doesn't yell, so they mistook him for someone rational.

(9,353 posts)You actually have to listen to him to understand that he is a blithering idiot.

(9,353 posts)If he loses viewers from having the douche on, he loses his credibility.
Thats the way we got rid of Greta.
I will assume thats the way they will get rid of Megan in the near future.

(37,162 posts)Recall that in 2002 Phil Donahue's show had good ratings in its slot, but went against the larger interests of then-MSNBC owner General Electric, which would benefit from orders for military equipment that a war would inevitably produce.

So Hugh, in the future if youre ever in the hospital and have a cardiac arrest, as your nurse I will hobble to your room on my 75 year old arthritic legs as fast as my walker will take me.
