Morning Joe

While conceding that Obama was a good athlete, MSNBC's Joe Scarborough had some less-than-laudatory comments about the Illinois Senator's bowling skills.

Watch Joe discuss what Obama and his 4-year old daughter have in common:

You obviously aren't bright enough to understand what he's saying. For example, during the primary he was slamming John McCain saying he was not a conservative and was running a campaign for more wars and fewer jobs. Then after the nomination he immediately talked about McCain the war hero and started a campaign supporting him. He went after Obama with all the Faux News/RNC talking points. You're clueless. Let me guess Olbermann loves Bush in your world

What has that got to do with runing for office, Joe you look like a misproportioned man with a small mouth on a big face. Maybe you should stick a bowling pin in your mouth to enlarge it. Then we don't have to hear your stupid comments.

Joe critiques everyone. If you watched him, then you would know that. You just can't read this blog to get information. It makes you sound stupid.

Do you think he could critique them on something more relevant than their bowling ability? Your post does not make you so so intelligent, by the way.

Bring Imus back-bring Imus Back- Morning joe is making me a tea drinker. at least Imus was a lovable slug. Joe is just a slug. Let him go the way of the other jerk Tucker Carlson. Bowling is a real man sport for joe. Guess you can understand why Joe stuffs a pair of sweatsocks in his pink draws he wears

Sorry, but Obama DID look effeminate and girly.

And it was TOTALLY symbolic of his inability to be in touch with "common folks"

Because bowling is such a "manly" sport? I don't think bowlers even break a sweat.

Bowling is the only game you can play without folding in the middle. Hence it is so attractive to the beer-gut enabled athlete

Scarborough and his fellow corporate media infotainwhores always take cheap shots at (male) Democratic presidential candidates to undermine their masculinity: Dukakis riding in the tank; the lame fabrications about Al Gore's "earth tones" (the atrocious Maureen Dowd described Gore as "practically lactating"); Kerry's windsurfing, and ordering an uncool kind of cheese on his cheese steak (Swiss).

Whether stated openly or merely insinuated, the point is always to undermine the (male) Democratic candidate as a Big Pussy (not the Sopranos character) who lacks the cojones to sit in the Big Chair in the Oval Office. Of course, this has the bonus of affirming that the (male) infotainwhore's masculinity, and that of his male guests, is beyond question.

If McCain had bowled poorly, the teevee peanut gallery would give him credit for giving it a go, with "attaboy"s instead of derision. And psychosexual lunatics like Tweety Matthews would probably tear up while rhapsodizing about the manly reek of Maverick of the Living Dead's bowling shoes.

I could see McCain doing one of those cartoon bowling thingys where he fails to release the ball and goes sliding down the alley. Then he would jump up and say, "Was I supposed to let it go"?

The thing is, he was absolutely right. Kerry's windsurfing looked a whole lot better.

Morning Joe = Hannity & O'Reilly.
MSNBC, please get rid of this clown---he's full of himself, and his ego is out of control. Can you send him over to Fox? Or at least take his show away, like you did Tucker (another republican with an over- grown ego)!

I wish they'd get rid of Mika. Although she's not wearing headphones, she sounds like she's not really tuned into the conversation at hand. She just blurts out things.

Bring Imus back. Joe is horrible. I must admit I watch it only because it is the lessor of the three evils in the morning. I think that between Joe and Mica acting like a child this show should be taken off the air. I will say though that have had no problems getting the big names guests on. I guess they miss IMUS also.

I think we can all take the anguish that it will surely cause us to not have Joe Scarborough vote for Obama based on his bowling skills.

I use to like Joe but the sand has been leaking from his brain lately. Who cares if this man don't know how to bowl that well. Why don't he play basketball wih Obama one on one lets see if he gets 37 points?

Joe is just a cheap John Wayne impression, to dupe the morons out there, of which there are plenty. It's the only reason he's on the air.

Olbermann is a jerk because he stands up for people? You are calling a man who is lambasting Wal-Mart for suing a mentally damaged ex-employee for all that she owns, a liar? I question your morals.

Initially - using a similar philosophy, they hired him because he resembled Letterman. Letterman is a Progressive. The network wanted a more controllable corporate mouthpiece, but they screwed up. KO is even more progressive than Letterman!

There will be those who don't like what he says, clearly. He rankles some, but inspires many more. Different people use different criteria for what constitutes a "Liar" or a "Jerk".

I'll admit that the video I saw showed a man who was tight, needed to loosen up a little. Sorta like a guy who doesn't work physically. 'Course we gotta "president" now who works out daily and he has let us know he would like to be a dictator. Maybe we could just keep him if that's the only thing important to you.

Foirmer Neocon Congressman Joe Scarborough (R-FL) - who had a mystery death in his office-should get paid by either the RNC or the McCain campaign. He is also a Clinton supporter since he wants to have her as the DLC nominee.

The man's spin on GOOD MORNING JOE is that he is a regular blue collar guy who is neither in GOP or Dem pockets. What bull ! He is for either Corporate Democrats or Corporate Republicans. His co-anchor, Mika B., has a famous father, NSC advisor under Carter, and her brother who are Obama, and a brother on the McCain campaign. She bends over backwards like most centrist Democrats trying to be "journalists" that she aids and abetts her anchor in his subliminal game.

He bowls like a girl is pure attempt to sissify Barack Obama. I have seen him play b-ball and he is good. I am also to believe that Bubba Joe drinks suds and eats dogs at his bowling alley every Friday and Saturday nights. MSNBC competes 24/7 with CNN and Fox and ALL of them have certified rightwing types in their stable in order to appear "fair and balanced."

You're just as bad as the people who keep trying to link Vince Foster's death to the Clinton's - I really wish you people - on BOTH sides - would get off this crap and think about the problems this country faces.
