Holy Shite: David Gregory is talking about economic hardship

[malaise]

linked to ordinary people. Of course he limits it to the middle class. Pinch me someone!

1. Missed it. If he keeps it up, he should get better ratings than Tucker.

Did you see the dumb ass dance tucker and willie on his last show Friday? I noticed on AAR website, that Rachel Maddow was on Gregory's show and will be on Abram's too.

2. No I didn't watch the farewell show

Good riddance

4. I realize Tucker is HATED by most at DU - BUT

for some strange reason, I did not mind him, despite disagreeing with him on everything.

Anyone who is comfortable enough with himself to be mocked for trying to dance, has a self-deprecating sense of humor that bemuses me.

He has a cheerful demeanor to cover his wingery and every once in a while, he gets things almost right.

I think he is a bit more to the center (if there is such a thing) of the GOP, but we may see him going more to extremes to make a living for his family.

I enjoyed the back and forth between him and Bill Press way back when.

5. The only time I saw good in him was in early Sep, 2005

when he was in New Orleans. I saw empathy I haven't seen since, but then again I hardly ever watched him.

7. Tucker hasn't bothered me nearly as much as Morning Joe Scab lately.

This morning Joe Scarborough had Kudlow on and Joe and K were the only two people in the US that seemed to think that there is nothing to this "slowdown" in the economy. They were frighteningly naive or perhaps being deceptive.
