There's a new entry next to Mika Brzezinski's name in the annals of MSM elitism. The Morning Joe panelist today lamented blue-collar whites who "can't hear" the message Barack Obama propounded. Poor benighted souls. Joe Scarborough called Mika on it.
Brzezinski's comment came in response to Scarborough's exposition of why he didn't think Obama's speech would work with many blue-collar whites.

The Pennsylvania Democrat base, you mean? Among whom Hillary is going to win by twenty points? ;)
Why can’t blue-collar workers be enlightened like Mika ping to Today show list.
I am still not sure exactly what “the message” is - beyond left-wing economic policies and some sort of imagined “healing” of exaggerated or non-existent problems.
Morning Joe is such a putz, but every once in awhile he remembers who he was before he went to work for MSNBC.
Blue Collar Whites know BS when the hear it Mika.
I like how they keep telling us that we’re not smart enough to understand what we hear.
Gee Mika, maybe blue collar whites are tired of being blamed for every misfortune of this country.
If Obama gets the nomination, McCain wins Pennsylvania, Ohio, and (possibly) New Jersey thanks to the votes of blue collar whites alone. If Hillary is nominated, McCain loses all of these states.
Yet still vote for Hillary because she is the "real deal."
Obama’s problem is that too many Americans DO hear his message, which is bigotry and hate.
Don't blame people for disliking the message. What's next, a KKK member for 20 years with the Grand Wizard as spiritual adviser peddling himself a a bridge builder between races?
Mika should relax and have a cappuccino. It ain't over until the fat lady sings and we haven't heard from Oprah yet.
What would this born-rich liberal elitist know about blue-collar Americans?
The theme of the Obama campaign seem to be—if you don’t agree with my agenda you are 1) not smart enough to understand it, or 2) racist.
Nevermind that he is the one attending a racist church and pushing failed left-wing policies.
And if she was a Clintonite she’d be on there saying “if Hillary says on stage she ‘wants a glass of water,’ it doesn’t mean she wants a white blue-collar man to get her a glass of water. It means she wants the blue-collar man to sympathize with her thirst.”

Hey...
what is this?
Barack Obama.
I know.
Why are you playing Obama?
Because I like
to listen to him.
That’s the problem.
Y’all listen.
What am I supposed to do.
eat it?
No. You’re supposed
to hear it.
I said I like to
listen to him.
There’s a difference between
hearing and listening.
White people can’t
hear Barack. You listen.
What are you talking about?
His speechwriter was white.
Ah ho ho ho!
Get out! Barack Obama’s
speechwriter was not white.
Yes. he did.
Check it out.
See?
This is a picture!
Whole campaign is white
except forJimi!
This is a picture!
Airbrushed! Barack didn’t have
a white PR section.
You cannot hear Barack!
All right. Fine.
All right.
Thank you.
gee Mika, try to imagine that maybe all those “blue collar whites” are actually much savvier than a leftist turd like you — they know exactly what Obambi stands for, the far-left anti-American racism that backs Obama’s career, and they reject it. Can you ‘hear’ that message Mika???
I can’t vote for a black guy whose white grandma was a racist.
She’s such a liberal snob for being a baby killing drunkie junkie DemboSlut worshiping at the altar of the Death Culture.
You see her asking the black guest for approval of her opinions the other morning, like if he didn’t approve, she’d change her stupid liberal white ho way?
Joe made a comment this morning that should give us all HOPE. I’m paraphrasing here “Barack Obama won the democratic primary with this speech yesterday but will lose the general election to John McCain because of itâ€. But his words fell on the deaf ears of Mika.
BRZEZINSKI: Nobody is more uniquely qualified to talk about the human experience black, white, from both sides than Barack Obama.
SCARBOROUGH: I agree with you.
Yep, Barack Hussein Obama is more qualified than anyone else in the whole damned country to talk about the human experience. Half-Kenyan, Hawaii-born, Muslim-indoctrinate, Harvard-educated BHO knows more about what it meant to be a poor Black man e.g. in the Jim Crow South of the 1950’s than anyone else alive on this PLANET!
Regards,
There is no such thing as blue-collar whites! We are all rich-white boys that run the world remember!
Well, I am at least, I don’t know about you guys.
I agree 100%! Rush, et al should stay quiet about obama and attack hellry to insure the dali-bama is nominated.
Oh, they “hear his message” alright. They just don’t like it!.............
I heard just enough of the "message" Hussein propounded to remind me of a turd floating in the punch bowl at a Yew Years party.
So she went from the front of the bus to under the bus.......
Mika, you ditz brain, we got his message loud and clear. We are smarter than the sheeple that vote Democrat, so are the blue collar white guys.
They don’t like Obama and Jeremiah’s message, and thank God they do not.
of course they won’t hear it and I’ll tell you why.
Obama knew that this Wright controversy would come out. But he expected this to come out after he won the nomination after brainwashing most of the country about hope and change. He expects the economy to be worse right before the election. The plan was to use this as an opportunity to unite the downtrodden beyond race and turn them against the capitalists and conservatives.
This came out too soon. Most americans aren’t so desperate and they are still able to think. The brainwashing is over and people will now want to ask serious questions about this guy.
Philadelphia 03/19/2008 -- In a strange incident this morning an elderly white woman was thrown under an oncoming bus on Interstate 95.
The bus driver reported that the woman was tossed from a large black SUV by a slender black man with jug-handle ears.
"At first I thought it was kids playing around, maybe throwing out a bag of rags." said the driver. "But then I saw it was an old lady and I could see the look on her face. First she smeared up against my window then rolled under the wheels."
Other witnesses report seeing a crazed looking black woman with wild eyes and a big mouth leaning out of the SUV window making obscene gestures while shrieking racial epitaphs at the elderly victim as the bus ran over her.
Police are certain that no terrorists are involved but are puzzled at the cause of the accident. They are investigating the possiblity it might be the work of Arab speaking college pranksters from Canada heading south on spring break.
County workers wait for heavy equipment to lift a bus off an elderly woman on I-95.
The accident caused traffic to back up for miles, delaying departure of attendees at
the Barack Obama speech which ended shortly beforehand. Fortunately the candidate, accompanied by his wife and others, were able to depart before the accident occured.
no,horseshit is useful.
The liberals always think anyone who does not agree with them is stupid. I’m glad they take this superior attitude because as long as they do, they can never influence them.
What, Mika?
I couldn’t hear you...
Blue collar whites or black, that are democrats, are already drooling eye rolling mental deficients.. else they wouldnt be in a party that depises them..
Oh! Martin Luther King was a republican, don't you know..
No matter what he SAYS, Barak was mentored by a card carrying USA Communist as a boy (biography cited by a writer for Canada Press posted elsewhere today)and by a hatefilled racist in his adult years. From his own book, he tells us that he found the best plan for getting along was a smile and politeness, with which he masked his true feelings. He is and has been telling us who he is--the poor faith starved followers have simply perceived him as the savior they deny needing.
Hillary, too, was mentored by Communist American Saul Alinsky, and many of her ploys are straight out of his playbook--keep your enemies on defense instead of offense; tell a lie often enough and sincerely enough and many will believe it.And no, we don't hate her for being a strong woman. Margaret Thatcher and Golda Meier come to mind as strong women leaders whom we admire.
If Americans do not get beyond the rhetoric, learn a few facts and learn how to add 2 and 2 without getting 3 or 5, this nation is sunk.
Get over yourself Mika and grow a brain. I didn't like your so well touted brilliant father's answers either, when he was a Presidential advisor.
vaudine
I like Morning Joe better then Imus Show, don’t really care for Fox& Friends as it is just too lite in the backside for me.
Joe does have insights, but he drowned out at M(isery)NBC, was it Mika or Obermann or Fenn that said blue collar white folks are knickleheads? Or did Obermann say that “they just can’t understand”..
I’m so bloody confused, I can’t tell my Hate America first comentators on M(isery)NBC, night or day, they seem to run together after awhile...
Help me out here.I can see why blue collar whites would be put off by Obama but why turn around and vote for Hillary?
She is JUST as much in favor of affirmative action,identity politics and racial set asides as Obama.In fact,you could argue with some merit that Clinton,plagued by white guilt,would go even MORE overboard in promoting reverse racism than Obama,who would be under some pressure to be”fair”to white males.
Racial "epitaphs?"
Guess Obama was right in noting that white people need more ear training, so that we can hear the underlying positive message of love and hope that resides in Wright's invocation for God to damn America, and thus understand Obama's willingness to donate thousands of dollars to spread that message.

You could tell that Mika didn't want to hear what he was saying at the end
He could have been more blunt and said "They hear it fine, they just think his message is BS"
Exactly. Next year we’ll ditch anthropologists and go straight to the chimps for answers to universal questions—not that Bonzo mightn’t be an improvement. Too many logical fallacies here to type.
Over the weekend, I was speaking with some friends about our children and what was going on in their lives, and one of the friends decided to go on a rant about how white, middle class women are responsible for Obama and what he’s going to do to this country. Of the group of us, the male is Hispanic, one female is Hispanic, and the other two females in the group are white. I laughed at him and then listened to his rantings. The guy is a veteran and a patriot. He’s also a life-long Democrat. But he’ll vote for McCain. He would vote for Hillary and was incredulous at my words to describe Hillary though he agreed with me when I spoke of Bubba. His rantings were very interesting because he knows where I’m from (deep South), and we’ve had lots of race conversations. I know a lot of Hispanics who will support Obama. But it’ll be a tough sell for the majority of them. Economic class will be a huge factor. The middle and lower income classes of Hispanics do not trust Obama’s rhetoric, AND HIS RELIGION OR LACK THEREOF IS A HUGE FACTOR. This friend was adamant about Obama being Muslim. I’m convinced he’s neither Muslim nor Christian. I think he is as much of an atheist as his mother was. Regardless, the Wright stuff is going to tank Obama’s candidacy in the long run.
“Racial epitaphs?”
Yes: Here Lies the Candidacy of Barack Obama
Mika. Good. Lay. Lib. Brainless. Blond.
That’s the problem ;^)
