      There is something wrong when a commentator gets extra credit for stating the obvious.

      This is why some people actually respect Scarborough over all the other clownish wing nuts out there. He actually has a brain to think for himself and say what the reality is sometimes. Somehow, because he's truthful makes him a RINO... no logic there, obviously.

      Now, if he someday actually went to Fox News (which I would take personally being a Morning Joe regular since 2008), he would definitely take a SHARP turn to the right and just go apesh*t on anybody liberal and the Democrats. That's obviously what Ailes wants his army to do... and they will do what they are told to earn the big bucks.

        What I like about Morning Joe is that the anchors don't alway agree with each other, unlike the bobbing heads at Fox and Frieds.

          Except they have a tendency to all speak at once...with Mika rolling her eyes at Joe's remarks like a disapporoving girlfriend.

          I'm not a big fan of Morning Joe...kind amateurish IMO.

            That's what (to me, at least) makes it entertaining for a morning show... two co-hosts in the morning debating each other and finding something wrong with the other. They act like a married couple, short of actually being married, of course. That format obviously wouldn't work in prime time, or in the afternoon even, but since it's the morning and people are still groggy, it adds some laughs to wake up to.

      That's not electricity it's Mitt Romney's magic underwear.

      And because the hardcore right is moving further to the right, it makes people like Joe Scarborough seem centrist

      Mika Brzezinski said something today that makes me think she's finally going to take the extreme right on with their lies.

      She said that Giuliani was not telling the truth when he said that Obama did nothing when the BP oil spill happened.

      Of course Joe Scarborough came to Rudi's defense but Mika refused to be dissuaded.

      Way to go Mika.

        Actually, regarding the debate between Joe, Mika, Giuliani and Ratigan, it was Joe who was disagreeing with Rudy, Mika defending Rudy and agreeing with him, while Ratigan was shooting down Scarborough's statements. Scarborough was actually defending Obama and the oil spill response for most of the debate.

          But Mika came on yesterday and had a short conversation with Joe at which time Mika said she thought Giuliani was lying during the discussion you referred to.

          We are talking about two different shows. :-)
