Scar is not on the show today! Mika UNLEASHED!

[PearliePoo2]

She's running a great show! Great!

[Skidmore]

1. Not watching but my guess is that Joey has gone to give his

unsolicited advice to the R uberlords because he is a legend in his own mind.

[Berlum]

2. He could be giving SCANDAL advice to aching Akin (R)

Scar has experience.

[PearliePoo2]

3. At 5 am PDT (for some reason) they re-run the 1st 20 minutes of the show.

I have to watch again because Mika absolutely kicks ass. Wow!
What a difference when Scar is gone and that should be permanent!
MORNING MIKA!

[hlthe2b]

4. He was out of control yesterday--absolutely frothing... I wonder where he is today

[Graybeard]

6. Hmmmm.

Maybe he was given a time-out and sent to his room?

That display at the beginning of yesterday's show was
disgraceful and a little bit scary.

The show is always 100% better when he is not there.

[rasputin1952]

12. He was probably sent to his dark space...

he's little more than an arrogant moron anyway. Brainless oaf to the point where he just steamrolls
over anyone w/a dissenting pov. I recall mika's old man calling him "shallow" a year or so ago.

Scar is little more han a tempest in a teapot.

[hlthe2b]

14. After Zbigniew Brzezinski called him "shallow"---isn't that when he started wearing his

"deep thinker" glasses?

Just like Palin. No need to educate yourself... Just find someway to try to look more the part.

[myrna minx]

15. Is this where he goes for a time out?

[pinboy3niner]

13. In full-body restraints in a secure, undisclosed location?

Well, one can dream...

[Fla Dem]

18. I thought the same thing, a lot more abusive yesterday, very uncomfortable to watch.

He usually is a bully, but was way over the top yesterday. I often wonder if he has some type of personality disorder, and sometimes he's off his meds.

[Motown_Johnny]

5. OK, just don't say unchained or unshackled because that would be racist.

[PearliePoo2]

7. She is challenging the press to ask the questions. Afghanistan.

She is so passionate, the guests were all quiet as she stared at all of them.
WHAT are we doing there? Why is it not discussed EVERY SINGLE DAY?
This is the best I have ever seen her. She needs her own show.

[hlthe2b]

8. Uggh... Harold Ford Junior. Bending over backwards to prop up Paul Ryan.

Two seconds of his smirky little face and I'm reflexively ready to smack him. More irritating than most of the RETHUG pundits.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

10. What an asshole.

I really dislike this jerk

[boomerbust]

9. Not to worry

Harold Ford Jr. filling in for Joey Scum licking Paul Ryan's backside. What a scumbag.

[PearliePoo2]

11. I agree with everyone here that found Harold Ford Jr. disgusting.

After singing his (Ryan's) praises, he quickly had to add, "But I'm not voting for them!"
What the fuck kind of Democrat are you Harold?

[Mike Daniels]

16. To be fair, when the panel isn't forced to bow down to the living ego that is Joe Scarborough

everybody's game steps up.

They don't have to spend the first 15 minutes talking about Arsenal (or whichever football club Joe is always going on about), they actually get to complete a thought and have a complete diccussion/debate, and they don't have to break off their input to deal with the titular host having a tantrum anytime someone makes a critical comment about Ryan.

That said, Harold Ford and Mark Halperin are still total wank*ers but the show is infinitely more watchable.

[PearliePoo2]

17. They all have to tip-toe around the big bully and his obvious anger issues.

He never lets anyone finish a sentence. And if someone dares to challenge him...oh boy does he get nasty. I've seen it almost come to blows.
They must all be relieved when he is gone from the show. Mika hardly gets a word in otherwise.
They never did mention where he was today.....hmmmm.

[monmouth]

19. I kind of thought maybe he was on hand in Tampa, since he's from Florida, to do a meet and

greet to those early arrivals. Or, he was sent home to cool off.

[pinboy3niner]

20. You're probably right--the show will be live from there next week so he's scouting the bar

Morning Joe will be live in Florida

[TuxedoKat]

22. Yes

Joe often interrupts but when someone else tries to interject a point he gets nasty and says "let me finish".

[Thinkingabout]

21. After a week of Faux news (visiting in a home who beleives what faux puts out

Morning Joe is wonderful to hear, Joe at his most harsh moment is not as bad as listening to "fair and balanced" at their best moment. Love the show, Joe does state the republican side and at times even admits they are not always on the right track. I record the program so as not to miss one moment. Love it when Zbigniew Brzezinski is on, he can tell more information in 15 minutes than I have ever heard from Rmoney.
