Did any just see Mika, Joe and David Shuster go at it on MSNBC?
Edited on Tue Dec-11-07 07:04 AM by MassDemm
Joe was yelling at Mika and then David jumps in, all hell broke loose, for real.

This was about the waterboarding tapes. Of course Joe says he's glad they destroyed them so the enemy doesn't see what we do. Mike and David are aghast.

I think I'm gonna write Dan Abrahms and complain about Joe.

Hopefully crooks and liars will get this so you can all see. It was television at its finest.

1. Imus had a good discussion about it. They concluded waterboarding is generally WRONG.
They had that guy Jacobs who won the Medal of Honor on. He said he got good interrogation results using cigarettes, and medical care when required.

3. I saw them do that last week. Is this a gimmick?
I saw them go after each other last week when David was in the mix. I hope Joe loses that spot. I'm beginning to think they do this for viewership. Well, they damn sure lost me. I would try to catch it for their guests, but I'll go elsewhere.

4. ... Andrea Mitchell coming up next to cover waterboarding issues
Joe said he had someone withhold all the waterboarding questions/news for Mika, until Andrea comes on to discuss it...
so, I'm curious how much leeway Mika will have, and/or how short the leash will be...

Yesterday when Joe was out, they all discussed it and were pretty much in agreement on the waterboarding, and acknowledged that Joe did not agree with them.

Joe really needs to pull his head out.

7. The "enemy" sees first hand what Bushco is doing.
The Bush administration wants to make sure that American citizens don't see what they do.

9. If they see firsthand, it's another recruiting video for Al Qaeda
and another increase in worldwide anti-Americanism.

8. I tried to write via the MSNBC web site, but it's down
I get a run-time error. I was actually writing about Joe's befuddlement over John McCain's failure to gain traction behind the "success" we're seeing in Iraq. I wanted to point out that it is because people simply don't believe the claims of success coming from the administration which has LIED to America about virtually everything else of significance, from WMD to Katrina to waterboarding. So what if McCain backed Bush troop escalation? Supporting a liar doesn't make McCain much better than the liar himself.

Now Joe is once again befuddled about how we could have such tremendous job growth, such fantastic economic figures, the best economy in decades all because of George Bush, but that the fed is calling "recession" and cutting rates.

NO SHIT, JOE! Because it's another LIE. A million new burger-flipping jobs is NOT a sign of a booming economy, it's a sign of more LIES from BushCo. If you'd ask some fucking intelligent questions instead of just reading the press releases you get from your old colleagues, maybe you get a clue.

:banghead:

11. Is Mika the blonde woman who reads the news?
Did you see the part when Joe was talking about the Colorado shootings, I gather some woman with a gun shot the shooter, and Joe said, "One person with a gun can make a difference," and some blonde woman shook her head and said, that's the most innane comment i've ever heard.
