What a shameful, retrograde, sexist and misogynistic

frat party on Joe Scar during the first half hour. Absolutely disgusting--from Scar himself, to Halperin et al.

Mika should just get up and walk off the set. But then, she'd probably lose her job.

I wrote one, especially about Halperins REFUSAL to even discuss the binder issue, he says its not an issue and for the next 3 weeks he is not discussing anything but "issues". Do we like being told whats an issue and whats not by these 'males'.

corporate ass-licker to force his agenda on everybody else?

"Binders" isn't worthy of mention? For christ sake, it's all over the MSM and blogosphere.

to show that men don't understand the bigger issues. Binders is the joke, not the issue. The issue is that Romney is an effing liar. Glad I'm not the only one pissed!

by continuing to crap all over women. Stupid. Making a shitty situation for the Republicans even shittier by rubbing women's faces in the mysogynistic shit the men are emitting.

Men oozing and barfing up a royal crapfest of condescension (R). Not honorable. At all. Many are noticing.

I dont usually watch Scabro but was randomly catching some of the debate aftermath. Thanks for filling us in. That bad huh?

I was listening to NPR yesterday while driving--that was pretty bad too--all these lame efforts to shore up bloodsucking RMoney as a presentable presidential candidate. The debate was a "tie" y'know....

treatment of Mika by that gang of sophomoric asshats I've ever seen. Astonishingly crass and cynical.

Truly emblematic of what the Repuke Party has become.

think about their choice of marketing partners is also a great idea. What they do for Joe is much more than run an ad during his program, they do 'synergy marketing' they sell a 'Morning Joe Blend' and all that...

they're advancing the Repuke agenda by treating the one women on the set in such a despicable manner. Tone deaf troglodytes.
