The fact that he had no position of gun control while Joe Scum is now pro gun control explains the silence on Christie's clear NRA perspective.

He STARTED the name calling and then freaked out when Mika told him his behavior was chauvinistic.
I hope he's gone, the show is so much better without him.
Man, you could see the real Joe and how that temper of his can get him into some REAL trouble....hmmmm.

What's with the snapping fingers!

The only thing they all missed in the dialogue was that Romney tried to play off his seeking out women And asking for the binders. That was not true, and the binders were given to him by a group promoting qualified women.

Joe acts chauvinistic all the time, belittling mika's positions when she thinks something is important. And it drives me nuts that the other men at the table remain silent or snicker.

This helps me frame my email. Thanks!

so that's ONE example of why a cabinet position is not being filled by a woman. Scar "The Mean" responded that David Axlerod said she was never actually going to be nominated. Mika said she didn't believe it. Scar said, " Are you saying David is a liar?"
I've been watching this show since it's beginning. I saw Scar attack David Shuster once when I thought the chairs were going to go flying, but I've never seen him attack Mika so fiercely and with such venom.
He's really a disgusting fucker.

Joe was awful this AM. I think his true personality comes out at moments like this. He tries to come across as fair and balanced, but when he is challenged, he becomes a rude bully.

the other being the subject of torture. (I can guess what position "Scar the Mean" took on THAT one)
Mika apologized for calling him a chauvinist and Scar did a half-hearted, lame-ass apology.
He's now sitting somewhat subdued but with his arms crossed and pouting.
