Joe showed his lack of respect for Phil Donahue

[rwork]

This morning. Phil was repeating several times his new movie would open Friday and go to Body of War.com. At the end Joe said, now what was the name of the movie?

1. I don't watch that jerk. But, from your description, it could be that the

appearance stipulated that the "product" would be mentioned "X" times during the appearance.

That could have been the point behind the question.

I'm listening to Imus. Way more interesting.

[Ninga]

4. Hey, can I listen to Imus too? How? I am in Ohio. n/t

12. It's so much more MEATY, the discussion we're hearing on his show

I gloss over the fact that he now has to shill for his ABC radio masters, which is always eye-rolling when he does that, and concentrate instead on the interviews. He lets people FINISH their sentences. He doesn't give them passes when they talk shit.

I don't agree with him much of the time, but at least it's DISCUSSION. Not hectoring or scolding. And certainly not telling people what to think--that drives me up the wall.

It's better than anything on tee vee. You can get more done, too, around the house--easier to fix that loose hinge, or make that small repair, when you've got ole "Anus in the Morning" (the funniest thing Harold Ford EVER said, IMO) running in the background.

2. Joe couldn't carry Phil Donahue's shoes.

A first class schmuck, bar none.

9. I pulled up ol' Joe on Wikipedia. I don't get it. He's an absolute

nobody and yet look where he's sitting. When the cameraman panned Phil before he sat down with Mika and Joe, I couldn't help but think.. I bet he's wondering why this time slot isn't his. It should be.

3. Joe seemed off this morning. Today is his Birthday.

Others would have to repeat things as well. The financial segment he was making fun of Joe because he was telling him a couple of times but Joe kept asking for the answer.

6. I only watched to see Phil and was appalled at how stupid joe is

Mika on the other hand is a treasure, shes the brains on morning joe no doubt about it. Cute too ;-)

8. Bernie Goldberg (on after Phil) was repulsive

He said he wanted all the liberals who supposedly think torture is wrong to spend two seconds being thankful we stopped Sadaam's torture chambers.

Okay, Bernie, thank you, but I really want to know why we had to KILL over one million Iraqis to get those torture chambers closed. :grr:

[spanone]

11. yea bernie, now they're united states of america's torture chambers...we won

[Supersedeas]

13. his appeal for 5 minutes of joy -- kind of puts Phil's presentation in perspective
