Is Morning Joe dead or something? Will he ever come back to his show, or is he hiding from Rachel Maddow?

Russert again says "this isn't MoveOn.org" as if that's a good thing.

Turns out, we were right, Timmy, you tool.

2. These clueless fucking IDIOTS.
Hey, did the fact that this "war" was a lie from the very beginning sneak up on you, or hit you all at once? What disingenuous ASSHOLES, still pretending that there was EVER a shred of credibility from this administration, before, during or since the invasion of Iraq.

6. It is so interesting.
Timmith is saying everyone else was fooled. Mica covering her ass and Mike Barnacle (Top chauvinist Pig of Massachusetts) is squirming. They got suckered.

13. Did you see the Today show interview with Williams, Couric and Gibson?
To their credit Katie Couric and Brian Williams admitted that the media did not ask the tough questions when Bush was lying his way to war in Iraq.

Not Charlie Gibson.

He thought the media asked the tough questions.

Keep in mind that this is the same Charlie Gibson who made a farce out of that Democratic debate in Philadelphia with Snuffalopogus last month. He wouldn't know a tough question if it was standing next to him, begging to be asked.

Then, he complained that ABC has better food at its cafeteria than NBC.

What a dork!!! He gives gerbils a bad name.

8. where is the self-reflection?
These MSM movers and shakers don't seem to take responsibility or show remorse for their (huge) role in the propaganda dissemination and enabling the WH to realize their PNAC fantasies at the cost of millions of lives and billions of $$$$.

Interesting, though.

15. That's a sure sign that they're conservative.
Conservatives today don't take responsibility for anything anymore.

Librul media indeed.

re: "Russert again says "this isn't MoveOn.org" as if that's a good thing. "

I don't think he meant it like that. It sounds more like, "this isn't coming from a place you'd expect to hear this kind of thing, this is coming from the other side."

11. I think he meant it this way:
Translation: This isn't coming from a far-left-wing, wackadoo source, like MoveOn.
This is from a previous Bush loyalist, so it's worth paying attention to.
If it was just a left-wing nutjob saying this, we could all ignore it. But this guy is credible!

21. That's how I took it as well.
But some people around here have a persecution complex so they assume he meant it in the other way. Our interpretation could be wrong, of course, but that's just how it sounded to me.

10. Let me get this straight... Everyone is shocked at the revelations or shocked that Scott who
hinted that he was gonna give his side just laid the guts of the Bush administration bare? Because this is not shocking. They knew the lies, this dumb ass media, but they sat on their hands. Russert asserting that the administration was questioned. Listen up though... you didn't do your research after the questions were asked. YOu let this administration push the lie without much push back. Michael Moore turned out to be right about everything and the media practically let Bush and other press berate him for speaking truth.

Hey Media... take your blame for being the dumbasses that you were in run up to the war.

14. No it's not MoveOn.org.
MoveOn is far more honest forthright true and American than any of these assholes could hope to be. Yourself included Tim. You enabler. After Nazi German was taken out of business did the world allow their media to hang around blaming everyone else? Hell no. This administration needs to be tried and convicted for their crimes and the "so called press" (spinmeisters/enablers) like Tim or Joe Scarborough or Bill O'Reilly or Lou Dobbs or anyone at Faux news for that matter need to be imprisoned as well. They led the USA into a war based on lies and deception. They were willing participants. Could the fools who swept the German people up into a war fervor before WW2 claim like Brokaw and others have done in regards to September 11th that it felt unpatriotic to question the administration in the wake of Septemeber 11th. It's bullshit. Any other forthright country would have had them at least in prison by now. Instead in dumbed down America people still pay to watch the bobbleheads spin the spin about their own actions or lack thereof. They are traitors to the US in that they didn't protect the constitution form the domestic threat within it. At least now even the mainstream is seeing that they are all full of shit. Too bad over a million people have died as a result of their complicity.

16. The hand-wringing (or sounds of such) from that woman made me sick
Sighing in the background as if to say, "this is so terrible, I just can't believe it"

Where have you been for all these years? I can't believe these people are that stupid!

17. Can You Say
Damage Control boys and girls? They are such pathetic liars that it's not even funny anymore . . . The fact is that the people have been on to them for a long time now. No matter how many excuses they make, or how many mea culpas they try to fake, there is still blood on their hands that will NEVER go away. :mad:
