F*ck David Gregory!

[nyc 4 Biden]

I don't know why I turned on MTP this morning. I've avoided it like the plague ever since that hack Gregory took over. Well I guess curiosity/boredom swayed me to check out the show this morning. Well, within the first 20 seconds Gregory the RW shill list a bunch of negative stats about "Obama's Economy." You don't have to be an economics major to know that it takes months and years of wheels in motion to affect the current state of the economy. Just the fact that he framed it as "Obama's Economy" is a ridiculously thin veiled attempt to inject his RW talking points into the commentary. What's next "Obamacare" and the "Government Takeover of the Health Industry." NBC should fire this hack and replace him with Larry O'Donnell or Rachel Maddow. Rant Over.

1. Not even if you put a bag over his head and gave me candy

but, yeah, you have a point

[hokies]

4. Not even for this?

:rofl:

[havocmom]

8. Nope. I am immune. Went to COSTCO

have two big jars of Nutella and a spoon. I am way beyond having to fuck for chocolate ;)

[cliffordu]

12. We go to costo for the pumpkin pie.

those four foot wide pumpkin pies.....

[Thickasabrick]

38. Hold on.....there is a four foot wide pumpkin pie?? Really?? nt

[cliffordu]

39. Not really - it's twice the size of a normal punkin' pie, though....

[ellenfl]

23. omg! someone else eats nutella with a spoon!?

i truly haven't found anything i want to spread it on. it's best all by itself.

24. i spread it on

fresh Italian bread. It's the best Jerry.

[havocmom]

33. Try it on Akmak crackers when you want chocolate & crispy

Hey, whole wheat, nuts, chocolate = health food :D

[ellenfl]

35. wheat's out . . . which is why i cannot think of anything to

spread it on. spoon still works just fine!

[pink-o]

32. I used it in Hamentaschen for Purim last spring.

Best. Fusion. Food. Ever.

[LuckyLib]

36. Nutella crepes. Close to heaven.

[Kdillard]

2. The only thing watching MTP will do to you is raise your blood

pressure. Seriously David Gregory is a joke.

[Faygo Kid]

3. We thought Russert was a shill. He was debatable. Gregory is a joke.

David Gregory is a miserable excuse for a human being. He has no critical thinking skills.

[hokies]

5. All of his questions seem to have a right-wing tilt to them.

[orpupilofnature57]

6. G.E. errand boy !!!You expected Joe Pine?

[newblewtoo]

19. would that be spelled

Joe Pyne?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Pyne

These guys (Pyne, Downey, Limbaugh et al) have been around forever or so it seems.

Agreed David Gregory is an enormous waste. I always picture him standing out in the cold in front of the White House. :rofl:

[orpupilofnature57]

45. Thanks for the spelling correction ,but unlike Rust and Morton, Joe actually

had real conversations with the opposing veiw.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yq4sNtvu0oE

[ericgtr]

7. I never liked him, even before Obama was president

He's always come across like an asshole.

[nyc 4 Biden]

11. I agree.

Same goes for Chuck Todd. They are peas from the same pod.

[Thrill]

9. There is a thread like this every Sunday

I don't know why people even watch MTP. He's a RW shill, that's why their ratings are in the toilet.

[Zen Democrat]

10. MTP needs to go back to it's original format -- a panel of newspeople questioning the guest.

David Gregory doesn't have the objectivity, intelligence, or interview skills to carry a show on his own. It's just a matter of time before there's a format change of some kind, IMO.

David Gregory will always be remembered by me for his bumping ass dance with Karl Rove.

[cliffordu]

14. Thanks for that image. Now I have to throw up.

[solara]

18. Me too.. That image is always the first thing I think about David Gregory

There was a moment in time.. BEFORE that dinner when I wondered if maybe David Gregory might just be alright..
After that.. after seeing him bump AND kiss Rove's ass like that..I was over him, still am, will always be

MTP is a total waste - IMHO

:patriot:

[annabanana]

21. Dances with Rove .."Oh what a night". .

[solara]

29. That is an obscenity eom

[Hepburn]

13. Unfucking him would be a kinder act to all involved. N/t

[Graybeard]

15. A 6'5" pile of stinking RW crap.

I'll second the idea of bringing back the panel of journalists do do the questioning.

[Better Today]

16. It's not like Russert was any better. It's just a sucky, rightwing show.

[solara]

20. Yeah, but Russert died, which somehow elevated him from RW shill to 'journalist'.

OK, now I am for sure gonna burn in hell because I spoke ill of the late "great' Tim Russert...


:patriot:

[Better Today]

22. You mean late "grating" Tim Russert, surely. LOL

[rhett o rick]

17. What did you expect from CorpMedia of America. nt

[IndianaGreen]

25. Why are any of you still watching the Sunday punditry programs?

If it isn't the lightweight Gregory, it is the pompous George Will on ABC, or the equally repugnant daughter of segregationist Hale Boggs, Cokie Roberts.

[thatsrightimirish]

26. the ratings have gone down ever since he came on

hopefully he will be gone soon.

[City Lights]

27. David Gregory is a corporate stooge and a GOP toady.

He's paid big bucks to lick boots.

:nuke:

[depakid]

28. It's always a mistake to turn that show on

Has been for years.

[Clio the Leo]

30. You may be overestimating the intelligence of the American people...

.... the WH needs to get on this talking point with the quickness.

You and I know the economy is improving .... that we're losing jobs at almost half the rate we were in January .... but most Americans dont see that. They just know unemployment is at 9.8% .... it might be at 12% if it hadn't been for the stimulus bill .... but it's hard to prove somethign that didn't happen.

[Rudy Adams]

31. He's no Tim Russert!

But, then again, who is? We lost our best journalist last year.

[Snarkoleptic]

34. What the fuck are you smoking?

Oh, and btw...welcome to DU.

[SoxFan]

37. Russert was a very good host.

The fact that he is loathed by a lot of DUers and a lot of Freepers shows that he wasn't afraid of asking uncomfortable uestions.

And for the record, Russert was a lifelong progressive Democrat. Right wingers don't usually hold jobs as speechwriters for Mario Cuomo...

[Snarkoleptic]

40. The NooB referred to him as "our best journalist"...he was not even in the ballpark..

[Raine]

41. MTP is completely worthless since Tim Russert

died. It was half-assed then but sometimes it was OK, now it's not worth a minue of my time. :-(

[zulchzulu]

42. I've turned Press The Meet off on my DVR... it's just not worth watching anymore

Gregory is all about himself and seems to never have gotten over his lovely dance with Karl Rove. It is a sickening show from the level of gotcha quotes and over-blown predictions... frankly, all the Sunday shows are like that (ABC,NBC,CNN,CBS) and you know you're not watching "news", but calculated antics based on strawman talking points.

[uponit7771]

43. I wish someone would call him on his "Some People" qaulifier.

[Cha]

44. MTP's mailbox addy for those who care and an additional

"Fuck you david gregory" and the freakin' whorepress you rode in on.

[vaberella]

46. I agree and I support your suggestion of Lawrence O'Donnell taking over.

Not to mention LD was in Congress so he would be helpful in adding that bit more of understanding and knowledge to the legislative process.

[JohnWxy]

47. He's an ass. see related link re M$M - (you might find it interesting)
