Russert is on trying to pretend that his session with Colbert yesterday was interesting. It was not. It was awful.
Russert says Republicans don’t want to talk about Iraq, Katrina or spending. They continue to pretend that Iraq is not going well when it is, and that the federal government was the problem with Katrina when it wasn’t. On spending, Republicans did not do well, I’ll give him that.
It's apparent NBC's political guru didn't watch the GOP debate last night as those topics took center stage.
Frankly I can't watch this show more than a few minutes as I find Mika romancing the camera a bit much so early in the morning.
According to Newbusters she really put her foot in her mouth again today:
On "Morning Joe," host Joe Scarborough, a Red Sox fan, and panelist Willie Geist, a former sports reporter and producer at CNN, were discussing at length the Sox's ALCS-clinching victory over Cleveland last night. Mika Brzezinski, trying to establish her own sports bona fides, proudly announced that she had watched Temple beat "Miami" in football. Upon questioning, it became clear that she didn't realize that Temple's opponent was Miami of Ohio, not the former national-champion Hurricanes. For that matter, it appeared that Mika was unaware of the very existence of Miami of Ohio. The screencap shows the moment in which a perplexed Mika shouted "what?" as Willie and Joe laid the news on her.
