When candidate Obama talked about bringing us all together, this is presumably not what he had in mind . . .
There was surprising consensus on today’s Morning Joe around the fact that this is an arrogant White House. It was press secretary Robert Gibb’s boast—responding to Pres. Bush’s rather mild recent remarks—that “we kept score [...]
Rush made them do it!
In one of the more absurd, if creative, defenses of the MSM yet, Mike Barnicle has blamed the media’s liberal bias on its reaction to “talk radio.”
Morning Joe actually got off to a refreshing start today, with Mika Brzezinski frankly acknowledging that the MSM leans heavily left, that she herself tends [...]
Between now and the final confirmation vote, how many times will we hear of Sonia Sotomayor’s “moving personal narrative”? But as Pat Buchanan, Joe Scarborough and Ann Coulter pointed out this morning, touching personal tales meant nada to Dems when the minority judicial nominee wasn’t a liberal.
Clarence Thomas and Miguel Estrada each had moving stories [...]

Is a new Mika Brzezinski emerging: a more fair-’n-balanced one? Signs point to yes.
Yesterday on Morning Joe, as noted here, Joe Scarborough described the members of the White House press corps as being “in love” with Pres. Obama to the extent that at the big dinner this past Saturday night that PBO attended, they were [...]
On Morning Joe today, Joe Scarborough nailed the Washington press corps for its sycophantish performance at the White House Correspondents Association dinner this past Saturday night: “like a bunch of teenage girls waiting for a Bay City Rollers concert, waiting to scream at the top of their [lungs].”
Mika Brzezinski, agreeing with Joe, lifted the veil [...]
Was Joe Biden giving solid advice . . . or sowing the seeds of panic? Asked on Today this morning how he’d counsel family members in light of the swine flu, the Veep said he wouldn’t take a plane, a subway train, or be in any other confined space.
Just minutes later, the Morning Joe crew [...]
Oh to be a fly on the NBC cafeteria wall next time Joe Scarborough and Chris Matthews run into each other. On today’s Morning Joe, Scarborough singled out Hardball as an example of the cable shows he doesn’t watch because their guests “vomit bad information” for which they’re cheered.
Scarborough slammed Bob Baer, a former CIA [...]
After Morning Joe ran video today of Robert Gibbs abjectly abusing the truth by claiming Pres. Obama didn’t bow to the Saudi king, Mike Barnicle expressed sympathy for the White House spokesman: “Poor Gibbs. He’s got to be saying ‘why did I take this job?’”
If it ever becomes too much for poor Gibbs, I’ve [...]

That’s Erin Burnett holding up a $100 billion Zimbabwe bill. It will buy you about three eggs. Could the USA be on the road to becoming the next Zimbabwe? Very doubtful. But the threat of high inflation is very real, and that’s what prompted Burnett to display the bill during her Morning Joe appearance today. [...]

Are today’s politicians and bureaucrats smarter than the ones we had a few years ago? Apparently so, since the new fad in the political set is to claim that we can avoid future financial crises via “smarter” regulation.
We saw a perfect example of the phenomenon on Morning Joe today. First in a clip from Tim [...]
