Thursday, MSNBC contributor Mike Barnicle blamed former President Donald Trump for the Atlanta-area massage parlor shootings that left eight dead, six of which were Asian women. Barnicle acknowledged on “Morning Joe” that Trump’s “didn’t pull the trigger in Atlanta” but said his “language” and “behavior” makes him “responsible” for the attack. He explained Trump’s rhetoric has enhanced racial strife in the country.

Frequent Morning Joe guest Mike Barnicle, who quit The Boston Globe in 1998 after the editor called for his resignation amid rumors he fabricated one story and plagiarized another, decided to exhibit more of his unrepressed rage at conservatives for the Daily Beast on Sunday in an article hilariously titled “Why is the GOP So Angry at Everything These Days?” Barnicle somehow managed to use that title while displaying leftist rage, calling prominent Republicans all sorts of names and accusing them of all sorts of character flaws. For example, Barnicle says Harvard law grad Senator Ted Cruz’s “fury” derives from...

There are still 10 months to go in 2015, but Mike Barnicle is a strong frontrunner for Clumsiest Comment of the Year. In a Morning Joe segment today on ISIS outrages, and shortly after mentioning the atrocity in which ISIS burned dozens of people to death in Iraq, Barnicle said that the complexity of dealing with ISIS makes "you want to set your hair on fire."

Those who are losing an argument often resort to smearing their opponents. Mike Barnicle, who a few years back was caught plagiarizing and Al Sharpton, The Worst of Al Sharpton who a few years before that built his career by accusing an innocent man of rape have resorted to smearing those of us who think New York Mike Bloomberg should at least confine his overbearing nannyist instincts to the city that actually elected him. “Let’s get down to it, Mike Bloomberg, mayor of New York City, there’s a level of anti-semitism in this thing directed towards Bloomberg,” Barnicle said on...

Mike Barnicle has greeted Newt Gingrich's announcement of his presidential candidacy with a sneer, calling the former Speaker of the House "a delusional loser." The former Kennedy-clan retainer and Boston Globe columnist seasoned his attack with some snobbery, disparaging Gingrich's educational background. Barnicle spewed his bile on today's Morning Joe.

Here is video from “Morning Joe” today, where Mike Barnicle said Nevada voters would be “embarrassed” to have GOP Candidate Sharron Angle represent them in the U.S. Senate. Barnicle said Angle “sounds like a mental patient.” Chris Matthews chimed in and raised the specter of “Dallas” – meaning the Kennedy Assasination – in pointing out Angle’s support of Gun Rights, seeking to twist her words into her advocating an armed revolt against the government. This is actually a good sign. It shows just how threatened Democrats Barnicle and Matthews feel about Harry Reid losing the Nevada Senate seat. The more...

Has Mike Barnicle called Sarah Palin stupid? Seems that way. In a Huffington Post column that Mika Brzezinski read on today's Morning Joe, Barnicle, referring to Palin, wrote of the: preposterous pronouncements of a woman whose candidacy is an insult to intelligence. Let's deconstruct. The normal formulation is an "insult to our intelligence," used to describe an assertion that is obviously unbelievable. For example, you might say Barack Obama insulted our intelligence when he claimed against all evidence during this week's debate that his only tie to ACORN is his past representation of the group in a lawsuit. But when...

Q. What's weaker than playing the "taken out of context" card? A. Digging yourself deeper with the supposedly exculpatory explanation. Mike Barnicle managed the Daily Double today with his mishandling of the flap over the way he described Hillary back in January. Barnicle was on Morning Joe, and discussion turned to a New York Times article, Media Charged With Sexism in Clinton Coverage, that mentioned his remarks. View video here.

While sources say there’s a “99 percent” chance WTKK will replace disgraced blowhard Don Imus with local talent, industry insiders say his firing over on-air racial remarks won’t be the end of shock jock radio. “It’ll cast a shadow on this form of radio for a while, but the competition is fierce out there,” said former radio host and Boston College professor Michael Keith. “Are things going to change significantly, the tone and tenor of these programs?” Keith asked. “They’ve been around for 20 years and they’re successful and they bring in the listeners and the ratings.” Kevin Barenblat, a...

Good news: This is not about the book, Bill Clinton's biography, that weighs in heavier than a refrigerator at 950 pages. Instead, it's about why the guy engenders so much hate. It's easy for people to take a temporary dislike of some politicians. Too many of them make whole careers out of trimming the truth. Some do anything to get their face on TV. The industry of electioneering has become a marriage of ego and hypocrisy. The good people in it often grow weary and pack it in. But no politician in my lifetime has ever generated the loathing that...
