Mika Makes Excuses For Vile WI Signs—Till She Sees Them

Mika Brzezinski learned a life lesson this morning: look before you leap to defend liberals . . .
At the top of Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough referenced the hateful emails he and Mika had received from the left and the similarly ugly signs held by Wisconsin union protesters. Mika reflexively defended the vileness, saying that people were "hurting and really don't feel like they're being heard."
Aww. But later, the show rolled video of some of the Wisconsin signs, including one with crosshairs on Gov. Walker, another calling him Hitler, one accusing him of rape, and of course that great old standard "death to tyrants."
To her credit, Mika, admitting she hadn't seen the signs, did change her tune. View video after the jump.

Admitting that she hadn't previously seen those signs, Mika agreed with Joe that if Tea Partiers held up something similar, "they'd be on a [MSM] loop."She only get's her news from MSLSD, which explains why she hasnt seen it.
Ignorance truly is bliss.

If signs like these appeared in these teachers’ schools, and they were written by students who were targeting other students for whatever reason, those same students would be suspended, period. How ironic.

Upstate NY.
Some of ‘us’ consider upstate NY to be anything NORTH of Suffern — of course anything North of Albany is Canada. or, at the least WAY upstate NY...ha..

Government deducting Union Dues from Public Employee paychecksYep, that's the end of the union.
Same reason that I'd LOVE to get rid of employee tax withholding. If people needed to write a quarterly check, the Democrat (and RINO, just as likely) party would cease to exist.

How could she have possibly missed seeing the signs? Doesn’t she watch bipartisan TV?

Mika is so in over her head, she gives blondes a bad name. I tune in during the commercials at Fox and Friends just so I can see her contorted facial expressions and watch her trying to think up something that makes sense. If her daddy wasn't Zbignew, she would probably be working in a factory making cupcakes on an assembly line.
Who was that Yoda impersonator sitting at the desk this AM? Carl Bernstein. Here's one of his brilliant thoughts today. "They can't cut funds on education, because education in the country is in serious disrepair." Yea, let's give the liberals more money so they can indoctrinate kids, play hookey from teaching, and use their students at political rallies to support union benefits.

MSNBC is the channel of choice of Democrats because they share the same communist worldview.

I see. Thanks.
If course, I phrased that from his POV, so naturally the assumption would be that he’s being a great teacher now, but if you don’t give him what he wants, then look out for mayhem.
