Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumOn Morning Scar today: what a "mean girl", nasty, snarky snake Mika B. can be.
Her father should disown and disinherit her for besmirching the family name.
Her "Hillary-Hate" TM) has overwhelmed any semblance of objective professionalism she might once have claimed.
Her smirking, sneering, simpering segment on HRC this morning, in a back and forth with Harold Ford, was a new low, even for her.
"KNOW YOUR WORTH", she says in her faux-feminist book. Perhaps she should take her own advice and get out of the "newz biz" right now.
What a totally worthless and useless butt on a chair.

Is there a White House liaison to NeimanMarcus?
Sheesh, she used to actually stand for something. I remember her best day when she shredded that Lindsey Lohan news bit she was supposed to read and instead said no more, this is not news.
We applauded her.
How far the fall.

She turned out to be such a disappointment as a role model to young girls and women, the way she cedes her thoughts to the mouth on the right.

Then, when he inevitably goes over the top, she clucks like a mother hen--oooh, you bad boy...tsk, tsk.
She's an embarrassment to female news people everywhere.
I agree!!! Mika has an obsessive hatred for HRC. She strikes me as someone who can't stand seeing other women succeed. Maybe it's because she knows that she's a bad female role model herself? She seems to enjoy performing the role of a "mother figure" to the guys on the show, without any opinions that contradict the Chief Jackass she sits nexts to.
It's hard to watch, because it seems like her favorite pastime is making snarky, cutting remarks about successful women she doesn't like. AND have you noticed that she ALWAYS comes to Bernie's defense? I'd bet all my money that she'd hate Bernie Sanders if he was a woman.
Surya Gayatri
(15,445 posts)She can't stand HRC because she's jealous of her obvious intellectual and professional superiority.
Jane, not so much.

(3,284 posts)that Jane Sanders acts like a politician's wife should - smile, act demure, sweet and soft-spoken, and always put your husband first.
I think driven, super-intelligent women who make lots of $$ piss her off (or threaten her sense of self).*
*in other words, women who act exactly like the successful men she drools over.

(30,058 posts)MJ. I can not imagine what her problem may be, she sells her seminar "Know Your Value" and is working overtime to disparage Hillary. Hillary knows her value, Mika needs to know her value.
Surya Gayatri
(15,445 posts)even obliquely, and she'll trip over her tongue to get in some kind of insult or innuendo.
Thinkingabout
(30,058 posts)Hillary has not spent the time on the talk shows as Sanders has but rather meeting with voters and not shouting at rallies.
sarae
(3,284 posts)So she can't claim that anymore. But I noticed that Mika was much more restrained in expressing her obvious dislike during the interview. Guess she didn't have the courage to put her money where her mouth is...
Thinkingabout
(30,058 posts)Think she wanted Elizabeth Warren to run, did not happen, just wished she wasn't hypocritical. I got tired of hearing JS telling over the top of guests. He tried his damnest to get the qualified real going, Hillary did not bend to his questions.
skylucy
(3,739 posts)right wing talking points I'll turn to FAUX (Fox) News. Joe S. is a arrogant, sexist #%&@ and Mika is useless. He treats her like %&*# and she just sits there and takes it. If MSNBC puts Joe and Mika on in the afternoon again tomorrow to cover SuperTuesday 3, I will have to turn to CNN until Rachel Maddow comes on.

(22,147 posts)(I think it was CBS). She allows herself to be disrespected by Joe and has been allowing that for years. Too bad she doesn't believe in her book title.

She knows that HRC is her intellectual, political and professional superior, and she cannot bear it.

Even their on-air performance at the town hall last Wednesday was such a craven display of bumlicking and softballing that media critics all over the country denounced them for it.
Surya Gayatri
(15,445 posts)Thanks for that, Blue. LOLOL!

(15,370 posts)I thought. What a waste of time she is!
Surya Gayatri
(15,445 posts)Except for the FOX "nooz guurlz", I can't think of any other female news personalities who appear to be as abjectly out of their depth as she does.

(15,370 posts)always feel that they've gotta play along with the "good old boys" to get along.
She's not a good role model at all. She pulls the "snarks" because that's what the "gobs" want. If she actually believes them, she is in even worse shape than I thought. But again, a waste of time.

(5,648 posts)Apparently, if I am understanding this situation correctly you news is being undergoing filtration by news commentators/personalities as well.
I know that you are intelligent and well grounded enough in politics to handle the news without passing it through a liberal filter.
How can we complain about conservatives who get all their news from FOX News if we get all of our news from MSNBC?
Loki
(3,825 posts)She's intellectually lazy and a coward. So much for "Know Your Worth". She couldn't hold a candle to most of the women I know.
