Ugh.

… I predict Morning Joe will be off on this tangent within its first 15 minutes this morning.

If there is a sleazy erroneous shot to take at a Democrat it will not take the stupidest, most partisan asshole on TV 15 minutes to take it.

Good morning Attaurk and thanks for the post.

Halperin is Mr Smug even though his pronouncements are so often wrong. Ego unfettered.

Joe is a joke. His show is more and more like the old Imus…good political guests subjected to the inappropriate comments of an embarrassing host.

If he were only a joke or his comments only inappropriate that might be acceptable. He is not only a naked partisan, he is not capable of understanding the subjects he routinly misinforms his audience on every minute of every show. Plainly put, he is a moron and has no business hosting an alleged news show.

Stupidity and shallow thinking rules the day in the Beltway…as always.

It’s not stupid and shallow at all. It’s completely missing the point to think these “people” are bumbling idiots.

BigMedia exists to keep Liberalism from catching on amongst the general electorate, since they know that if that happens BigMoney politicians and policies will be over for generations. I’d say they’re incredibly smart and on how they’ve done this so far.

Like the Shrub Presidency which many also call “stupid,” they almost succeeded, and are still poised to succeed in the near future if things keep heading in the current direction, in pulling off their fundamental goal, and that is destroying one of the greatest Liberal documents and experiments in human history — The U.S. Constitution.

We’re not dealing with stupid people and we must stop underestimating them. Our main task in our lifetime is to stop these truly evil and incredibly devious people once and for all. Otherwise, the American experiment will be over, and probably in most of our lifetimes.

Our most immediate and effective way of stopping these Killers and Fascists (in the true meaning of the word), is not trying to change BigMedia, but to REPLACE it with New Media sources like FDL and others. Each one of must step up to the plate and support New Media outlets financially and with word-of-mouth marketing. If not enough people do this, I think we’re doomed. Literally.

Including a deliberate voice to loudly ridicule some of the “authorities.” Thinking about Hannity and his ongoing rant during the election; he could not stop talking about the Wright story with repeated lies and innuendo about his association with O. Repulsive, slimy “take” on everything. Same sort of slime and rant from Laura Ingraham. All snark and insult; the list goes on.

Good morning, pups. It’s MoDo and Friedman today. MoDo is cross. MoDo is sad. MoDo is disillusioned. In “Well, That Certainly Didn’t Take Long” she sniffs that it took Tom Daschle’s resignation to shake the president out of his attitude that his charmed circle doesn’t have to abide by the standards he lectured us about for two years. Listen up, bitch — when was the last time you saw The Previous Occupant go on national television and admit a mistake? Stupid cow… The Moustache of Wisdom gives us “Don’t Try This at Home,” in which he says he Israeli-Palestinian conflict is now broken into so many different pieces it may take a whole State Department of its own to resolve it.

Here they are.

The coffee, tea and hot chocolate are ready, and I’ve got banana pancakes this morning. Nice Polite Republicans has people chattering at me this morning that make it sound that health care reform is now dead because of Daschle’s stupidity and cupidity. Paging Dr. Dean to the white courtesy phone, Dr. Dean to the courtesy phone… Have a great day.

Morning All
Zbigniew Brzezinski called it right when he called Scar “so stunningly superficial it was embarrassing to listen to him.”

Thanks, Marion. Ooooohhhh, banana pancakes!

…Israeli-Palestinian conflict is now broken into so many different pieces it may take a whole State Department of its own to resolve it.

Ya think? Where have you been the last 4 years dip shit? Why weren’t you screaming long and loud about the anti-diplomat at State all that time?

Right wingers love manipulating numbers to benefit themselves! Neil Bortz on his show stated that 80% of Americans are still unhappy with the economy and the way things are going. He made this poll off to mean 80% are unhappy with President Obama’s job so far. Nope! It’s an honest poll after 8 years of George Bush. Things haven’t changed and they’re not going to for some time thanks to what he and his assholes did, so it’s not surprising a good portion of Americans are still steaming after TWO WEEKS!

Joe a Moron?… maybe, but one who deliberately exaggerates and misinforms a la Hannity and O’Reilly…to create a case where there isn’t one

Hey! A win for civil liberties in the PRCambidge:

The Cambridge City Council has halted the activation of eight surveillance cameras in the city out of concern about who would have access to the images, what they would be used for, and possible invasions of privacy.

The unanimous vote on Monday night came after the cameras had already been installed along Memorial Drive, by Fresh Pond, near Mount Auburn Hospital, and in Harvard Square as well as Porter, Inman, Kendall, and Central squares.

The cameras are part of a controversial surveillance network designed to link Cambridge with Boston and seven other communities. The cameras were paid for with a $4.6 million grant from the US Department of Homeland Security.

“The City Council is not convinced that the proposed benefits will outweigh the potential risks,” said Cambridge Mayor E. Denise Simmons in a telephone interview yesterday. “We don’t have enough information about how the cameras would be operated, how they’ll be governed, who has access to the data they collect, and how the residents of this city can be assured that the use of these cameras will not be abused. We feel there hasn’t been enough public discussion about them.”

Simmons said law enforcement officials told city officials that the cameras would be used in Cambridge to monitor traffic on evacuation routes.

Cambridge police officials did not return calls for comment.

Amy Kudwa, a spokeswoman for the Department of Homeland Security, said state officials had requested the money.

Don’t you love how after 2 weeks of President Obama leading our nation the wingers, such as Joe, are implying Obama is a complete failure and Americans should have voted for McCain/Palin instead? Joe, who ended up with a dead intern in his office around the time he was cheating on his wife, thinks he’s the most lily white republican out there! I’m telling you….it’s fun watching that guy. He’s so hypocritical.

Don’t forget the good Catholic Laura…she’s got the holy judgement on everyone. And never seems to look back or inside.

Not to put too fine a point on it, but there have been threads here that have turned into “Obama Is Teh Total SUKKK” parties. First 100 days, or honeymoon, my ass…

how many times can one say “Obama Is Teh Total SUKKK” anyway? After 5,000 it’s meaningless.

I sent a suggestion to the Morning Joe crew that they invite on some of the several economists who actually did forecast the financial meltdown 2 years ago (& were ignored or ridiculed) to discuss their thoughts on stimulus/how to climb out of this mess. Not gonna happen. Joe’s head would explode.

Laura Ingraham has been on the rampage lately! Apparently, it was fine when American contractors were stealing BILLIONS in taxpayer money, oh but when a Democrat doesn’t pay his or her taxes, it’s treason! Unfreakingbelievable. It’s fun watching these assholes be the big ole hypocrites they are.

Good morning Ms. Marion! ;-) And yes, anyone saying at this point that President Obama sucks after being on the job for 2 weeks is being ridiculous, especially knowing 8 years of the Bush Regime has catapulted our nation into a Depression (in more ways than one!). I asked one troll on my blog to list out all the devastating things President Obama has done in the last two weeks that had serious consequences on our lives. So far all I’ve gotten is crickets chirping and a, “but his appointments!”. Laughable!

I have a way of taking care of the entire budget deficit.

President Obama should direct the Internal Revenue Service to audit every individual who served in either house of the US Congress over the last five years.

The amount found in unpaid taxes would more than offset the stimulus package.

Problem solved.

brilliant!

That is a fantastic idea, so include the Cabinet and WH staff as well, + add in the Veep. Or, maybe he is so NOT one of the little people, so he doesn’t have to pay tax. I like your solution.

Is it true that Obama plans to get a current KGB officer into his cabinet?

The idea is that when the KGB officer sees how cool Obama is, he will get Russia to support many of the U.S. initiatives around the world.

Don’t Laugh. If that strategy fooled the Republicans, it might work on the Russians, too.

Yes! If anyone was going to stand up to DHS on this, it figures it would be Cambridge.

Was it Atrios who had a link to a piece on these monstrosities popping up, blocking sidewalks, not even functional, in the Old City part of Philadelphia? The whole article was frightening. I’ll look for that reference/link.
(Wonder if DHS has approached PR of Austin yet? Same response, I’d bet)

I’ve already seen a headline that read, “Honeymoon’s Over” – Nightline last night, maybe?
Sigh. I don’t have cable – at that point, I just turned the tv off.
