David Gregory -- Get the fucking hook!
I have HAD it with him!

He's got GIULIANI on for an opinion of the race? He's singing McCain's praises, and dissing Obama. What the fuck did Gregory expect?

He's on my list. :grr:

1. I needs to move to Faux News
He'd be more at home there.

3. Please don't listen to him. You might as well be listening to Sean Hannity. nt

4. I won't blame David for Rudy being an idiot! Nobody listens to Rudy
anyway. Truthfully, if I were a candidate, I wouldn't WANT Rudy to try to speak for me!

8. This was just the last straw for me regarding Gregory -
I'm often appalled by what he says and the questions he chooses to pose.

Almost without fail, the first headlines out of his mouth are negative toward Obama.

11. I always notice that he
frequently says "My sources inside the McCain campaign tell me..." I don't ever recall him referencing his "sources inside the Obama campaign. It's fucking annoying.

30. yup. Who are his sources in the McCain campaign, Rove?
Also, just now he said "And later, we'll examine different election scenarios...why energy may be a WINNING issue for McCain...and why Iraq may NOT be a winning issue for Obama..." WTF, was he attempting to make that seem balanced? Why didn't he just say "and why Iraq and energy may be winning issues for McCain." So transparent.

31. See??? Get the hook!
And how on EARTH could McCasin be winning on the energy issue? That is frankly bizarr-o.

39. EVERY show ...
he has this little swarmy gimmick where he takes whatever McCain's retarded asseration about Obama is for the day, plays the "fair and balanced" journalist, where he both validates and debunks the asseration ...

THEN, he does this gleeful "BUT, what this point does is underly a DEEPER question about Obama's campaign ..." People just don't know him, or whatever ...

EVERY GOD DARNED TIME he pulls this crape ...

That moment with him dancing on state with Rove at the annual media dinner, IMO, was indicative of who he is ... I think he reeks as much as anyone else on cable news as a guy who is VERY much addicted to the Washington DC scene, and people like that have a near universal disdain for all that is not republican ...

6. He has changed soooo much.
Please, someone, help find the David Gregory that used to drill this administration.

Did he have a stroke or something? He has done a complete 180*

16. It must be what having your own show
and having the Network tell you what to present does to you.

I just heard a promo for Rachel's upcoming radio show (I listen to Race to the WH on KTLK's feed), and she said some uncomfortable news about McCain/lobbyists has come to light.

Think we'll hear about it on "Race"? I don't.

28. He must have been leaning that way anyway. Rove couldn't entice
anybody over to that side who wasn't toying with the idea to begin with. The Rove thing probably what CAUSED a change - just brought his true leanings out in the open, maybe?

7. yeah, Stretch has been on my list for a while.
I cracked up at the beginning when he said that he was going to "debate" Rudy. Surrre, Gregory. I didn't watch that part, but I can imagine how it went. And how come they just showed that Pawlenty clip and didn't talk about it?

12. That was one of the all-time Inside-the-Beltway moments.
David Gregory is all about David Gregory. Period.

Which, sadly, is far from unique in the media.

13. So you saw him too? Gregory=McCain's lapdog
Gregory does this everyday, although today was especially bad. He threw Rudy softballs and never questioned the bullshit answers. Oh..me...oh...my! who woulda thought that Obama has no energy policy. Gregory hung on Rudy's every word.

Now they're playing too close to call.

15. You beat me to it here.
Ain't he about the worse you've ever seen. Never thought I'd say this, but he's worse than Tucker. My reasoning here is you know what you're getting with that Carlson nitwit, with David Gregorasslick, you're supposed to be hearing from a journalist. He is a snake in the grass and I called it long ago when they gave him the slot. But what are we to expect from KKKarl Roves dancing partner?

19. Hannity and OReilly and Tucker and those God Awful Fox in the Morning Idiots are far worse
I'm not saying he's good. But have you ever watched Fox in the morning? Fox and Friends? Or whatever it's called.

21. Fox and Friends Giggle About Obama Getting Shot
I don't know if they actually did that btw, but it honestly wouldn't surprise me. Those are the most offensive idiots.

No Michael Savage, or Michael Medved. I mean there are degrees of stupidity.

22. No - but you know what you're getting with Fox and with Tucker.
I guess I had hopes for MSNBC since they have KO and Rachel. Plus 'guests' like John Dean, Jonathan Turley, Wexler, etc.

25. No way.
We know what we're getting at faux. DG is a whole different story. He used to cover the whitehouse, and now he's just covering for them. David Gregory is a fucking snake, and now we know he's a snake. If we continue to invite this snake into our house, then it's our fault when he bites someone.

29. Again,
I disagree. He's worse than Faux, because we know that Faux is going to do what Faux is going to do. Think about it critically for a moment.

34. "Dancing with Rover, Gregory" was so "Past" before he even got his GIG with MSNBC...
He was a true "Media Whore." He ingratiated himself with the Bushies...while pretending to "shout out" controversial questions to "Da Fuhrer"...when all along he was working for him.

That he got his "BIG SHOW" after "Dancing with Rover" at the Wa Press Club Thingy was no surprise. He sold out long ago...we just didn't see it because his "Agent" was "clever" and positioned Gregory as a "Lefty" to give him some "creds."

:puke: on Gregory. Media Whore to the ULTIMATE!
