MSNBC Cast of Characters:
Edited on Sat Jun-02-07 01:58 PM by PCIntern
A microtome-slice better than CNN's but here goes the spew...

The veryattractivebutsnarky Chris Jansen is anchoring the usual gang of suspects. I really enjoyed her interview with the man she called "Commisioner" Kerik. His most famous line from 9/11: "What's the phone number for air cover?" Better known for his dalliances in apartments overlooking the site - one presumes he wasn't studying documents in preparation for the next attack (coming soon at a Cable Channel near you). Retired COLONEL (That's COLONEL, SIR, to you) Jack Jacobs: MSNBC's manwhoknowsallabouteverythingmilitaryorseditious, inserted his cassette about all the potential threats in the US. On and on and on, waxing poetic...well, not exactly poetic; he was clearly having problems reading from his cheat-sheet, you almost got the feeling that he was called in school for his oral report but forgot to practice it. Eventually he got it together. Usually, he refers to his fellow cadets at the Point who became well-known. Live-in-fear is his mantra. He's obviously on 24 hour call for these sorts of events. Of course, Peter King, a Rethug Rep from a Democratic Metropolitan area. Never could figure that one out. NYC elects the only Rethugs who are pro-choice, pro gay rights, the whole area is one of absolute tolerance in every sense, Quaker and otherwise, and we are incessantly exposed to Peter King, one of the most insidious apologists for Junior's Reign. Is there not one Democratic Representative who is not Al Sharpton who is available for the TV cameras?

The video running alongside the press conference is interesting...planes landing, waiting in line for takeoff, parking lots for cars, fuel tanks, trucking docks, freight bays. They just show the same stuff looped around 60 times.

1. Sharpton's a useful idiot for the right.

4. Sharpton is just an idiot, not useful. I hope he enjoys the hundreds of thousands...
of dollars he received from anti-recount (2000) maggot, Roger Stone, and the rest of the Reichwing maggots that fund him.

2.  Then there's the Tweety show or should I say
the Hillary soap opera. For close to a week now Matthews has been trying to milk air time on the two Hillary books being pushed. The panelists dutifully discuss it, but there isn't much they can say. One would think he would get tired of trying to make news out of old news. Yes she's ambitious, yes she and Bill had problems in their marriage, No, nothing new. It would seem to me he should stop drooling (literally) over Fred Thompson, and get into some of the details of his and Rudy's many marriages. He didn't cover the awkward scene at Rudy's daughter's graduation if you want salaciousness. Then there was him telling a new Puke panelist to STFU while he was interrupting . Poor guy couldn't here him I think.

3. Tweety JUMPED somebody who said RAYGUN was a "B" actor
Tweety claimed that THAT is a tired, lying cliche, that the G.E. Theater RAYGUN spent 2 minutes introducing was the highest rated program of its night.

Tweety CHOOSES to overlook that "A" actors don't "do" franchise niche things AND that RAYGUN and Nancy SHOOK DOWN g.e. of all the loot they could (see Kitty KELLEY's book). "A" actors might be eccentric or miserly, but don't need to SHAKE DOWN freebies and other loot.

Yaas, the sadness, the sadness, that Tweety has to make do with "interviewing" Nancy, when his TRUE LOVE is Ronnie. I'd like to see Tweety and NOONAN slugging it out over who gets to cradle RAYGUN's foot.

5. I saw that sad display
He wants his "daddy", Fred, this season. My gues is all the venom directed at Sen Clinton would disapate if she gave him an interview, I don't see him with the balls to saythe rude things to her in person that he has been spouting. IMO , she might be able to lock up the nomination if she goes in and gives Tweety a taste of what Bill gave Chris Wallace. ( I am not an HRC fan)
