I L O V E Morning Joe, it's a great show.

I don't mean to be cruel, but this Willy Geist thing is so completely lightweight. And Joe S...? One cannot speak of him without using the word yammer as a descriptive.

[Mavin1620]

TOO BORING.

[bikerdude]

I turn on that show, and if Joe is talking, I change channels. I can not stand his lying rants first thing in the morning. I would love it if Mika's dad or husband would walk on the set and smash his ugly face. He is a waste of both oxygen and bandwidth.

Too much Joe for anyone's morning.

I do not care for Joe's politics, but I can bear him. As an AA male, at least I know what Joe's POV is and he brings on guests that will challenge him - though he usually talks over them (that the entertainment factor) -- at least he does allow them to be heard on his show. There has to be someone from the other side that you can bear and I refuse to watch Fox for any reason.

Mika is not allowed to get from underneath Joe when MSNBC should be capitalizing on her appeal and intelligence. She is an intelligent women (though I disagree with her as well), but Joe beats her up so bad (in the figurative sense) that she becomes a little intimated and shuts down. However, when she is a fill-in/stand-in host she does just fine. A show with her and her father where they talk politics (she from moderate Republican/right of center standpoint and he from a moderate Democrat left of center standpoint) would be great. Her father is brilliant, mature, and humble. Hearing all sides - not just the ones that I/we agree with - is important, so Joe fits that bill. It's either him, Sean, Lou, Cambell, or Bill - choose your poison (smile). In the end and despite his doom and gloom view of the Democratic Party. We can agree to disagree and that's fine.

Willie Geist?

Why?

[imsosure]

Put Imus back on that time slot, Morning Joe is boring!!!

[OhComeOnNow]

Why do people watch that stuff?

[smag]

Why don't you guys just admit it that you don't like any balance on a news show. You have Joe (Republican), Mika (Democrat), Willie (???), Pat Buchnann (Buchanan Party), and a host of Lib Dems like Mike Barnacle (Dem), Chuck Todd, Robert Gibbs, Angelia Mitchell and Harold Ford. I realize that you hate to hear opposing views but isn't that what Democracy is all about hearing all sides to better inform. But if your mind is made up before you hear news, I can see how it may disturb your “don’t bore me with other opinions it disturbs my sense of simplicity.

[ErinBerin84]

puh-lease. First of all, Robert Gibbs is not on the panel...mo­re often a CNBC person is, and it's always all union bashing, all the time. Mika, if she is still a democrat, must be a closet one, because all she talks about is how amazing Sarah Palin is and how she doesn't want to spend her tax money on a bailout, how the economy isn't THAT bad because a lot of people were shopping at Walmart the other day (seriously). Barnicle may be a Dem, but he's definitely a moderate one because he's always complaining about Bill Clinton. The times that Mik DOES diagree with Joe (rarely these days), she changed her opinion two minutes later when Joe complains. What makes you think Andrea Greenspan is a Democrat? And Harold Ford is just barely a Democrat. I would welcome a show of contrasting opinions, but Morning Joe is mostly just an echoe chamber of moaning.

[frost12]

BECAUSE MOST AMERICANS HAVE LOST THEIR PIONEER SPIRIT.

[IowaKid]

Do away with Joe and bring back Dan Abrams.

[leopoldmozart]

Here here.

[bikerdude]

I agree with do away with joe, but leave abrams where he is...I do not miss him.
Imus is in RFDTV in the morning, but Comcast won't broadcast that program here in South Florida. They do broadcast it in other places.

[wantstotalk]

I enjoy Mika. Intelligent.

Terrific article from the LT (the new 24/7 Obama news site--so cool!) on Obama's appointments, including the Rick Warren inaugural controversy:

He Means It

This last week something happened that should have been mentioned. While Joe was questioning someone, Mika's cell phone rang and she answered it and started talking. It was her daughter and Joe stopped everything and turned to her and read her the riot act. Yes, she shouldn't have had a cell phone with her and have answered it while on TV but Joe was really rude and you could see how embarrassed Mika was. He should have just looked at her and said nothing and then talked to her after the show when they were off the air. He came off like a bully. I'd like to have been a fly on the wall when Mika got home.
