Hey kids, let’s watch ladykiller Joe Scarborough go all, “oh no, you’ dit’int!” and ‘snap snap snap’ at his abused teevee wife, Mika Brzezinski, for getting all lady-uppity and challenging Joe’s dominion on his morning caffeinated conventional wisdom idiot show.
Of course, later in the show Brzezinski apologized:
Later in the show, Brzezinski apologized to Scarborough, saying his “entire career” backs up the fact that he is not, indeed, a chauvinist. She reiterated her point that she disliked how Scarborough handled the segment.
…because Joe Scarborough is not one to be trifled with…
I have no problem with Scarborough snapping his fingers at his panel as long he always does it to Harold Ford with the admonition, “Nobody gives a shit what you think, grifter” and then the rest of the panel just laughs and laughs.
Also, he should punch Mark Halperin in the mouth. Just because…

every day – he should pop Halperin every day
If I were Mika, I wouldn’t be seen dead in Scarborough’s office. Because, well, some people have been, you know.
if only…from your lips to gods ear

Well played!
Mika is the biggest wimp. From the snippets I’ve seen over the years, she’ll make a valid point, Teh Boyz will disagree, and she rolls over every effin’ time.
Mika – don’t use a big word when a little one will do; the little one you were looking for was ‘dick’. Heh.
Yeh, Mika wouldn’t be the first dead blonde found in ol’ Squint’s office.
Of course, it would be irresponsible if I didn’t note that Morning Douche was never charged with murder of the dead woman found his Florida office. That should comfort Mika, knowing that it’s even money he’s not a murderer.
yes, Scarborough “is not one to be trifled with”
Mika has mentioned that her Dad likes to hunt and kill animals. Joe might want to consider this.
Everybody who has the chance should punch Mark Halperin in the mouth on general principles.
sloooooooooooow news day.
Mika should quit and go work for her father. Try drumming up the cold war again.
Sourdough should quit and take Harold(I ain’t got no money except what wall street shovels my way)Ford and Gov.Ed( you better give me more money Wall st. if you want me to sing your praises)Rendall.
Give the job to Willy boy. All that guy needs is a dummy to put on his lap and he will be able to widen his demographics to adding children.
Hee hee. Yeah, stay out of Joe’s office.
Mika pisses me off when Joe is going off on one of his rants and she just sits there looking down, like she’s sitting at the dinner table at Christmas and her brother-in-law is saying crazy shit and she has to keep her mouth shut just to keep the peace.
Every time I see Mark Haperin I want to deck him. What a smarmy asshole. I can’t decide who’s a smarmier asshole, Mark Halperin or Eric Cantor. They both go to 11.
Mika is the poster child for Stockholm Syndrome. We need to add this clip and her subsequent apology to the Wikileaks definition of Stockholm Syndrome.
The show has become unbearable. Mika giggles and shreiks like she’s popping Vicodin and seeing flying rabbits, while Squint — when he shows up at all — looks and sounds like he’s just woken up after an all-night bender.
His silly fratboy tantrum act has only escalated with Obama’s second election win and the obvious disolution of the Republitard Party into a chaotic firedrill for petulent, psychotic children.
Squint has become more morose, while Mika seems to be looking for the exit.
Stockholm Syndrome. A person could make a decent chunk of change working the deprogramming angle. Wire transfers preferred, of course. Up front.
Also, too: Please sign me up for that punch-Mark-Halperin-in-the-mouth deal. If you throw in Harold Ford, I’ll discount the rate.
Love the post title, though I hardly think Scarbro qualifies as a Tattooed Love Boy.
The way he spoke to both women in that discussion was masogynistic and bullying. I know he does it with others too, but his tone, his interruptions, his talking over, his yelling all denote a complete lack of respect for the women in the discussion. He’s a misogynistic bore.
It’s also quite telling; this is the world he and his type lives in and wants to continue to live in.
He makes $4 million a year, bitch! It’s his show. He’s the goddamn boss! The rest are here to serve HIM in his cause! Manners are for suckers and subordinates. And they are all subordinates. If you cannot be bullied, you do not get the invitation to appear.
Thus, the continuous cast of grifters, hucksters, cowards and propagandists every morning. Maybe a movie star every once in a while to pull some chick viewers in.
It’s Joe Squint’s world. Mika just occupies that other chair that he owns. She needs to to be happy she’s making half the fucking paycheck he’s making, and she needs to expect a smack across the jaw for the money.
No one watches the show except for a handful of unrepentent political junkies, and other members of the inbred NYC-DC MSM. Poor Halperin, each and every day of his life he is trying to back track and live down the fact that his father, by all accounts an estimble man, was the head of the ACLU. He has what the French call a “tête à claques”- a face you would like to punch.Once the rest of you are finished with Mark, I’d like a lick or two in as well.
Let me see, no subscription teevee, nope, I don’t get this one either.
The Pretenders – Bad Boys Get Spanked

Lori Klausuitis was found dead on the floor next to her desk. She had two major head wounds, one of which was nearly eight inches long and ran the length of her skull, that produced a hematoma the size of a child’s fist.
The coroner said she died of a heart attack due to a longstanding and previously-undiagnosed heart condition that somehow failed to manifest itself during the 5k fun runs she liked to do. Oh, and the head wounds? Allegedly caused by her head hitting the desk when she lost consciousness and fell as the heart attack killed her.
Did I mention that the coroner had lost his ability to practice in previous states due to malfeasance? It’s why he was working in Florida.
Scarborough is thought to be the perfect lover in some circles. Because there’s just no end to the prick.
I don’t watch the show for all the reasons most people don’t watch it. But now and then I’ll view one of these videos when Joe does something that causes others to post them. So I viewed it.
It’s obvious to me that Joe’s finger snaps were meant to signal to Mika, “Careful, there, Bitch — remember why you’ve got this job. Me. I’m the one who lets you work here. And what I say goes. If you can’t remember that, then things can change…”
Her initial reaction was that of any healthy female who meets with that demeaning behavior. Her subsequent apology was that of a woman acknowledging that Joe was right about his power over her employment.
Somebody should slap Halperin for the whole thing.
Every single day is Payback day for when her dad humiliated Scar
Zbigniew Brzezinski to Scarborough: “Stunningly Superficial”
Love the way Joe went all Travis Bickle on her: “You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to ME?”
The French only have one name for it? I woulda thought it would be like Eskimos and snow.
Slight correction – the post title is a line from The Pretenders song Tattooed Loved Boys from their first album (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pretenders_(album)).

Wembley? Fenway?
Eh…I got there frist.
Isn’t it funny that it’s possible to be a pretty-decent-guy-for-a-Republican and an obnoxious dipshit at the same time?

What are you doing up at 4:30am?
Joe Scarborough would rather that you didn’t see these links:

She’s worse than that other battered housewife, Alan Colmes. She just keeps lying there and taking it. Colmes had the sense to pack his bags and leave.
You know, the more I don’t watch this sitcom, the more every episode is like, “To the Moon, Mika!!” And Mika sez, “There’s just one thing that you’re overlooking, Joe: You’re going on a television show, a big television show. Millions of people are gonna be looking at you, and big money at stake. Why, you’re liable to get nervous and forget what you do know. Any person can do that.”
Thanks, I’ve been wanting to see something like that for years. How hard must it be for Mika – or anyone who converses with this dick – not to drop “stunningly superficial” into conversations now and then?
I’m all for punching Mark Helprin on a daily basis, but, as a native of Boston, I would also like to put in a request for a kick in the nuts to Mike Barnicle, also administered on a daily basis.
Someone should have appreciated this by now; it’s little enough, but here’s the button.
Also, too, love the body language in that video still. It’s depressingly perfect.
Actually, I was just thinking how much I’d enjoy kicking Halperin in the nuts, myself. Oh and to be followed by beating the crap out of Chuck Todd (though he’s been dialing back his smug smarm lately).
I wonder if it’s Joe’s suggestion that Mika dyed her hair that dreadful color—-cause that would be very 1950′s controlling husband, also, too.
JoeyScar is doing a fine imitation of several of my asshole relatives, all of whom simply know that all it takes to win an argument is yelling loud enough and long enough so that the rest of the table just wishes the whole thing would go away. Uncomfortable silence? No problem! No facts to back up their statements? Also no problem!
I treat JoeyScar the same way I treat these people: never bother being in their old white male prickish presence. I wonder how many people enjoy watching a morning argument as a best possible way to start their day; looks like ratings poison to me.
Squint is running for President in 2016 so he needs to establish his bona fides with the Teaberries. As for Mark Halperin, I want a couple of cracks too, but I’d like some duct tape over his mouth before I start. Maybe he’d explode from the hot air.
Do they insist that “there’s a lot of people like them”? Cause that was my Great Aunt’s fallback reasoning. On EVERYTHING.
