Mika: "Not a Single Republican Voted for Obama's Stimulus and I Don't Blame Them"
Edited on Fri Jan-30-09 08:12 AM by SuperTrouper
She continued: "I did not see any reaching out by the Obama Administration"

:wtf:

WTF is wrong with Mika. In what planet does she live? She is now the cheerleader of the GOP attacking Obama on national TV as "not reaching" to the vile GOP. :mad:

1. She's a globalist.
A strong USA weakens the appeal of one world front.

2. Can Mika name another time when a POTUS has gone to the Capitol
to make nice with the opposition? How about that cocktail party AFTER the vote? Surely she knows about a cocktail party.

3. Why is this show still on...
I have yet to be able to watch more than a few minutes of it before turning it off in disgust. Two idiotic hosts with frequent appearances by an avowed racist (Buchannan)...No thanks!

5. fuck Mika. half of K street already has. that would be my guess.
She oozes stupidity. And a kind of uniquely American arrogance where nothing she does really amounts to much, but she somehow thinks the world owes her something.

Daddy must be proud.

7. Sexist comment
I'm not a fan of Mika. I think her deference bordering on cowering to Scarborough does great damage to other women. But having said that I think your suggestion that she "gets around" is totally irresponsible and very sexist.

8. John Harwood had the greatest comeback.
When they were discussing funds for education that Mika didn't think was stimulis. Harwood and John Ridley pointed out that it would save jobs for people who would otherwise be laid off. Then Harwood said, "Mike doesn't care about public school teachers because she went to private school".

10. It was sickening hearing her consistently refer to the stimulus spending as "welfare"
She was talking right off of the right wing talking points.

Funny, I don't recall her ever referring to the bailout as "welfare.". Apparently she buys into the right wing notion that any money going to the wealthy benefits the economy while every penny that benefits anyone else is unearned "welfare."

Disgusting

12. maybe she has to fill in for all the bullshit
that comes out of Joe's mouth. I don't know why these people act like they are surprised these "welfare" items are in there. The people out of work need help. I guarantee every Governor wants this bill.

23. I guarantee our Governor doesn't
My state's Governor, Mark Sanford, is a libertarian wackjob who may even refuse the nearly $1 billion dollars on offer to South Carolina, because they compromise his precious ideology. As one of our local alternative newsweeklies put it, the reason South Carolina lags behind in nearly everything is "because we keep electing men like Mark Sanford".

13. Jesus Christ!
Mika and Joe have a total IQ lower than my shoe size and the show is watched by maybe...maybe 100,000 people. I predict that the show will be off the air by the end of this year. Why bother?

16. I second that.
Edited on Fri Jan-30-09 10:20 AM by Chiyo-chichi
I used to watch fairly regularly for several reasons.
When I turn on the TV in the a.m. it is often already on MSNBC because the last thing I watched the previous night was the Olberman repeat.
Like all of us, I'm a political junkie and they do talk politics on that show. I also like to sit and watch TV for a while at that time of day to wake up for a bit before I get ready for work What else is on? The local news? That's fine for about ten minutes. After that, they start repeating stuff. The Today Show? Pass.
Several times I vowed never to watch Morning Joe again.
But I still tuned in from time to time (there was a presidential campaign going on after all) and found it getting progressively worse.
I used to like Mika. She's attractive and I wanted to believe she was smart and progressive, but she has proved that she is neither.
I got a DVR and now start my day with Stewart or Colbert.
Much better.

On edit: it was Don Imus, not Joe S., who said Clinton should "rape another fat chick" and I did stop watching his show then.

22. I agree
I can't for the life of me figure out:

1) why anybody here watches this filth
2) why they then feel the need to aggravate those of us who wouldn't even consider watching this filth

Why?

20. STFU with the propaganda Mika!!
Edited on Fri Jan-30-09 10:46 AM by bdamomma
it is becoming clear that the media has and will always be in right wing corporations back pockets, and will be spewing crap for the next 4 years unless we push them back.

26. Mika can't think for herself.
Her dad must be ashamed of what she has become. She has essentially turned into Scarborough's parrot.
