How You Gonna Keep Her Down at the White House, After She's Seen Maori?

Imagine that a conservative commentator had suggested that Hillary would rather spend time up-close-and-personal in the company of bare-chested warriors than with Bill. Cries of sexism and intrusion on privacy could be expected to echo through the media.

But don't expect the MSM to blink over Mika Brzezinski having suggested the same regarding Laura and George W.

With Joe Scarborough off today, Mika again was in the Morning Joe host chair. One of Willie Geist's light-hearted "News You Can't Use" items focused on Laura Bush's surprise trip to Afghanistan, and the display of the traditional Maori haka dance that New Zealand troops there performed for her.

Probably. Though my initial reaction was "what woman wouldn't?" I'm sure a lot of other women, including Democrats, would think that same thing - even if they would never admit it.

What a clown this Mika is. Where would Mika be without you as her audience, Mark? If you ever stop watching her audience will be down 50% ....since the only other person watching is probably her daddy.
