because he was against Powell back in the 90s. I'm lovin' it.
Joe Scum you're just another scumbag ReTHUG hypocrite with a shady past.
It's not about you.

(47,366 posts)Back when HE was in Congress..................blah, blah, blah. Somehow he has a way of turning every discussion into a celebration of JOE! As Mika's father said, "He is stunningly superficial" and proud of it evidently.

(47,366 posts)Joe brings it up frequently as if its some badge of honor.
We've all had friends or relatives like Joe who insist on repeating the same stories over and over again, anything to control the conversation. I can just hear some of the thoughts of his regular guests, "Oh, here he goes again" as they try not to let their boredom show on their faces. I would love to hear what they say about him in private.

And that is probably what they are thinking as well. Joe knows they won't openly complain, because he has the power to keep them off his show, even MSNBC in some cases. He's a classic self-absorbed bully.

(31,706 posts)Joey rewrites his past every morning...the "bipartisan moderate". Those of us who had functioning braincells in the 90s know that's total bullshit, but it's Joey's teevee treehouse so he gets to pretend he's not who he really was. Sometimes I think he does it because he has some genuine remorse of the stupid crap he and his cronies did that resulted on him sitting on that teevee set and not in the Senate or the Governor's mansion in Tallahassee.
The "joy" of being a pundit is you can always second guess and even if you're wrong you aren't held accountable for it. I honestly feel that Joey thinks he's like Raygun in the 70s...using the teevee as his exile like St. Ronnie did with his radio commentaries in the late 70s. He truly feels he's not only the future of his corrupt party but the savior as well...he's just waiting for those who stood in his way...Boner, in particular, to flame out and that somehow the party will beg him to ride them to some new age of glory (self contrived...of course).
The fun of Joey's hypocrisies is to see him try to square them against those in his own party. He's just as clueless as the rest of 'em...

(5,842 posts)I heard him fumbling around early in the show trying to make amends for being a raging jackass last week but I'm willing to bet by the 8 a.m. segment he was back to his blustering, badgering self.
I recall the panelist pool on Morning Joe being much deeper just a few years ago than it is now. I guess a bunch of people decided they didn't need to put up with Joe's BS that early in the morning.

The guests are very thin these days, I assume because of killer always just shooting his mouth off.

(63,900 posts)He puts journalists in a compromising position: agree with him humbly and betray your honor or defy him and get banned from Morning Joe. some are taking that gamble...
