on an early segment on Morning Joe...he was delivering his smirky snark about the prisoner swap and was given a dose of his own medicine by a smiling Brian Schweitzer...and there were others on the show who refused to join in the Obama bashing. Joe Scar was being horribly snarky but didn't really have much support. Is Joe just lonely? Looking for love in all the wrong places since his divorce...bitter...he really needs to put a sock in it...getting old...even Mika looked fed up...Halperin and Geist were useless...

(63,768 posts)stopped smiling and got this really ugly look on his face. I don't think he was prepared for someone to refute his arguments while smiling...he seems to like to do his hatchet work with that smirk while his opponents are scowling, only it didn't work for him when Brian did the same thing to him...it wasn't so much what he said but how he treated Kristol...like the jerk he is...

(42,770 posts)sound desperate when debating. I know I do - lose my cool at some point when debating crazy wingnuts. In retrospect, always wish I could just calmly state my points without getting emotional.
Kristol is the king of smirk, for sure.

(63,768 posts)clearly the repukes are making this the slam du jour against Obama...they don't give a hot damn about our troops. It's complicated and we have some real hard asses to deal with over in Afghanistan but the GOP is so useless right now, they look like whiny babies...where oh where is there big issue? they don't have one so we get all this hoo hah...
I think Mika said it best when she said we may never know the whole story on what Obama knows that we can't know.
Hope you don't throw up a bit when you get to Joe's spiel...I had to stop drinking coffee until my stomach settled down...

(63,768 posts)their shiny new games are sliming the POW and making up stuff about those captured Taliban guys...Ted Cruz said American troops died trying to capture them and as was rebutted on NPR today, the answer apparently is NONE.
Cruz is a lame-assed idiot...

(42,770 posts)that repukes are jumping on this. The act of the swap is definitely a two
sided issue - happy for our soldier's release - scary about the prisoner's future actions. You can argue both sides, can't you.
Personally, I'd like to keep the pukes on the Anti-ACA topic. That truly makes them look cruel and heartless.

(63,768 posts)they've dropped their "repeal" thingy and now it's "replace" but they don't say what...
