As a very long-time and now former viewer of Morning Joe I call BS.
Joe is an anti-Conservative "conservative" and the rest are just tools. Mika can be honest most of the time but she is still the classic north-east liberal elite and has no clue about the real world. Ratigan is a faux-conservative as well. His "conservative" views break down in patterns entirely consistent with the dem talking points of the day.
Joe is a HUGE disappointment. He has gone native at MSNBC.
Who am I to tell you what to call my post? So call it what you want to.
I just find that the only "hard news" that is being broadcast at that hour is Morning Joe. Everything else is 90% what I call "fluff". Morning Joe is serious stuff. Why would you want Joe S. to carry a conservative flag? He just calls em as he sees em. I disagree with his "take" sometimes, but I expect that. He is not a cheerleader. Most others are.
My question for you would be: what show is better in that time slot? Surely not FOX. They are at their sorriest during those two hours. The little boyish clown FOX has on at that time is even stupider than that Howdy Doody Sheppard Smith.
