MSNBC sucks

[boomerbust]

All you hear on these so called liberal shows, "What will the Republican Party do". That is the Democratic Party of today. Trying to appease these fascist bastards. Sickening.

1. Will it offend you if I say I have no idea what you're talking about?

[justiceischeap]

2. Does it suck, say, as bad as Faux News?

Just curious if you have different levels of "suckage" for the so-called liberal shows--which is commentary, not news.

3. Faux News?

Didn't Fox win a court case to prove Fox doesn't have to tell the truth?

4. The Democratic Party has become the Yin to their Yang.

At the end of the day an army never advances if it only plays defense.

5. Turn it off

Take a walk, exercise, read a book. There are lots of things to do that won't raise your blood pressure

6. All the Democratic Party has done for the last 10 - 15 years

is react to what the republicans have done - because like it or not the republicans know how to get their evil shit done. The Democrats are so swamped trying to contain the damage of republican policy that they don't have the luxury of being able to develop plans of their own.

The Democrats haven't accomplished shit since Obamacare and the republicans are still working on undoing that!

Sometimes, I feel so useless and helpless being an underdog Democrat..........I want us to move the country forward but our hands are tied trying to keep the repukes from dragging us back to the 1950s.

10. That's because.....

the Republicans are the party for the 1% and the DLC wing of the Democratic party is the "controlled" opposition!

[femmocrat]

7. I think they give way too much air time to the republicans also.

For example, why is Michael Steele on so often?

And they discuss the republicans and what they are doing ad nauseum. Right now they are focusing on Chris Christie's "popularity" and whether it will suffer because of his jerk-ass views on DOMA. Who give a f*ck what he says. He will never be president because his own mouth will cause him to self-destruct.

11. I agree they say he is invincible in winning re-election In NJ

His arrogance and obnoxious personality might be the thing that defeats him. He's returning to his hateful right wing roots. I hope he self destructs before November. Go Barbara!

15. I remember..

I remember when MSNBC was Faux News lite... this was the time around the 2000 elections and up to the build up of the Iraq War and the 1% need the war drums be at full throttle. You had Faux News, then MSNBC (Faux News-lite), and CNN's role was to play the straight man down the middle..

Fast forward today CNN is still in their Center-Right role, FOX News is still Faux News, and MSNBC is the "opposition" to Faux.

The actors on stage performing beautiful lies while the curtains conceal ugly truths!

13. This is one of the rare times I could reflexively pull the Rec trigger by merely reading a title.nt

14. Shouldn't this be in LBN...???

[Whisp]

16. I haven't watched much since the stupid Obama Lost The Debate stupidity

How embarassing for them. Tweety is such an asshole, still, and forever.

Anyway, when they take clips from Limbaugh and treat it like we want to know what the fuck Limbaugh is saying and that it is important to us? - click.

They want controversy and hysteria but that is available other places so their ratings are going down the toilet as they have lost their identity, whatever it was (not as 'liberal' as some thought after those tirades against Obama and the debate and hardly any mention that Romney was a flat out full bore liar). I should look for that youtube clip that night just for a hardy laugh at their poor acting jobs.

They want to compete for the Fox and CNN pie and this is what they get - deservedly. Those markets are full as every idiot has already committed to one or the other. Instead of being unique and independent they are just as bought and sold as any of those gasbags.

O'Donnell is okay, the only show I bother to watch on purpose. He's way above most of the other corral of fools.

17. They have become totally

GOP-centric.

Almost all their weekday segments, regardless of host, start off with something a Republican said or did. Then they get reactions to what the GOP said or did. Maybe a video clip or two about what the GOP said or did. Some possible snark about what the GOP said or did.

The weekend is no better.

This morning I turned on Kornaki to see the topic - "How will the GOP rebuild?". Click.

2 hours later, I turned on MHP to see the topic - "Why isn't the GOP at the Essence Festival?". Click.

And there is precious little actual news anymore, it's almost all opinion shows. And their guests 'from the left' are too often Ed Rendell and Harold Ford.
