Chuckie Todd is making shit up as he goes along...
Obama's too late...he's too early...he did a great job of explaining...he didn't explain enough...he's not doing it right...

and Chuckie...see the Gallup poll(no friends to the Dems) numbers? Oops...the public likes how he's handling this 3:1. Bettter call rewrite, Chuck.

Wo we've got three shitheads (at least) on MSNBC: Joe Scum, Chuckie, and Davie Gregory

1. Did you see Chuckie boy asking Obama a question last night.
He was really nervous, and almost screwed it up totally!

3. He's out of his depth and not that bright...
Listen, I taught at an Ivy League University...the Impostor Phemomenon is big there...same for all these organizations like MSNBC. Many shouldn't be there...some, like Mika, are lucky sperm club members, some, Like Joe Scum, and not-yet-convicted felons.

but things work out for many along these lines...Philip Roth dealt with that wonderfully in a passage in Portnoy's Complaint.

9. He looked like he was breaking out in a sweat. Finally realized Obama is Pres and
he can't push him around anymore with his assinine questions.

4. Too bad we don't have a media that just publicly review how reporters do their jobs.
Edited on Tue Feb-10-09 08:20 AM by LiberalFighter
And just criticize, criticize, and criticize their poor delivery of questions and analysises.


OHHH and report polling data on what the viewers think of the reporters.

5. We Call That A Circle Jerk...
I'll bet they're sure showing us whose boss out there. When you get two bobbleheads together you get a perfect ass...when you have three, you're getting near toxic levels.

These guys do their "polling" at the drinkie-drinkie parties and telephone chit chats with their buddies...all based on nothing but their own egos and biases. It's called "conventional widsom"...talk about a word that needs redefining.

6. We need news media critics in the same way there are movie and
television critics. News today is nothing more than entertainment anyway.

7. I gave up on Todd a long time ago
after he predicted a Bush bounce following the "surge" (fuck I hate that term). Old Bushie would be back above 50% by june said Chuckie. Still waiting.

8. Chuck Todd is just so happy the be part of the "club," AKA the Collection of DC Press Whores.
....... He too wants to fancy himself as a media surrogate for the American people, joining the likes of Coki Roberts in the "far removed from reality" clique.

10. Chuck Todd is disappointing
He used to be ok on numbers (before they started making him do the map verrry conservatively..), but his analysis is questionable a lot of the time. I remember when Sarah Palin was picked, he said "Working women want to see her succeed" and then "Women are FLOCKING to Sarah Palin!"

Righhhhhtttt.
