Morn Joe is running repeats of earlier.

[Saturday]

Something is up. Maybe calling the President a dick is bad? Ya think?

1. Maybe there haven't been enough commercials from the oil and natural gas association to pay for new

content.

2. When I tuned in they were profusely apologizing for something

What happened and who said what?

3. Mark Halperin said that President Obama "acted like a dick"

in his news conference yesterday. Lots of threads on it here....I've sent an e-mail to them.

10. My e-mail to MSNBC

Is MSNBC going to have a double standard??? Should Halperin be allowed to remain on air after saying something so derogatory of the President? He knew what he said and that's why he asked about the 7 second delay. His apology sure didn't cut it and he can't unring that bell. Watching MJ is as bad as watching Fox News and I just can't do it anymore. From now on I will watch my recorded Countdown with Keith from the previous night. There are many viewers totally disgusted with this. It's time for Halperin to be kicked off the payroll of MSNBC.

11. I sent a similar e-mail but I requested the entire "Morning Joe"

team be taken off the air. I'd like to wipe that smirk off of Willie Geist's face - the guy who named his baby George W.

I didn't know Willie named his baby George W. Poor baby!!!!

8. I couldn't agree more, I can't stand him, he's a glorified Washington Gossip Queen.

4. Yea that does not sound that good of a thing to call someone.

But to avoid hypocrisy in criticism, I called Cheney a Dick many times, and I think many people called Nixon that also.

Although I think the context is different.

:shrug:

Also slang for Policeman, and detective, and I read even slang for spotted cheese, and a mound outside a ditch.

Although I think he meant it in a different way.

9. I was just about to post a thread asking what the flap was about

I turned it on right as they were apologizing but they weren't saying why.
