Morning Jo is such an asshole.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

Although he did admit that the twit is doing himself no favors.

But his treatment of senator Conrad is just rude.

1. And people still watch assholes and MSM instead of boycotting because??

2. Here's something that will solve that problem

Press the red button at the upper right hand corner.

Morning Joke will still be an asshole.

But you won't care anymore.

That's what I did and I'm a lot happier now.

3. Without MSNBC for the week...what was the gist of what was said?

[ChairmanAgnostic]

4. Joe kept spewing that no Democrats have ever passed a budget.

Conrad tried, repeatedly, to correct his error, holding the budget resolution that the Ds in the senate passed twice (but the house refused to raise it), and Joe cut him off repeatedly.

It was, in a way, a microcosm of the US house and senate. Joe, the bloviating, rude, bull-headed GOPer who refused to accept facts when they contradict his position, and Conrad, polite, speaking only on facts, and trying to defuse arguments as a gentleman.

If it was me, I would have stormed off the set, calling Joe a few choice words on the way out.

6. I recall, in my yute, watching a large panel truck try to negotiate LaSalle and Wells

in chicago, where the road curves from EW to NS. I was on a small side street, waiting to get on LaSalle. The time? 7am. The day? Sunday, on a cold Febrrrrruary day after an ice storm. The truck tried to turn, but only succeeded in spinning, coming directly at me. I tried to back up, but the icy roads prevented it. The collision was minor, but only because the truck took out the US mail box first, as well as a lamp post on the way to hitting me.

That's what I feel like when I watch Jo. A train wreck about to happen. An explosion waiting for the timer to finish counting down. A truck spinning out of control on an icy Chicago road. I know I shouldn't, but it is human nature.

7. I don't watch Morning Joke

I watch Bill Press and Stephanie Miller on Current!

[ChairmanAgnostic]

9. Just found them last month.

Miller was a hoot during the convention.

[Liberalynn]

10. She was good at the convention.

I use to listen to her on radio before they dropped the progressive station in my area.

Glad Al Gore put her on Current. I missed listening to her Jim, and Chris!
