Discussion: 'Morning Joe' Host Explains Comments On Rap And Racism

Did the panel call her out on her statements or just give her a free platform? Free platform is my guess.

When she was offered a place at the program’s grown up’s table she was assigned to do clean up for the dolts she is surrounded by. As well as pour the coffee, dust off the crumbs, and change the tablecloths. In other words, women’s work only.

The people least likely to actually want to have an important conversation are the people who toss it around the most. It only means she’s concerned and feels your pain but needs this particular gig more.

Striving women are their own number one enemy.

ā€œSopranos or Breaking Badā€ is an important conversation to have too, but it has about as much to do with rap lyrics as the casual, raw racism on display on that bus. Maybe in her next apology she’ll come closer to understanding the actual problem.

There was general fake agreement that no blame was directed at the rapper, who should’ve minded his F’s an’ N’s, and the need for more and more tap dancing er, conversation.
Then, in the next hour, Juaquin James Malphurs was introduced and interviewed by Alex Wagner and identified as the performer Waka Flocka Flame. He was a thoughtful, rational fellow who, aside from shock at the naked racism, was having a hard time dealing with what must have been his positive welcome when he’d recently performed for the very same SAE chapter. About as unlike the morning boobs continued characterization as could be…

I’d like to rap, the Morning Joe’ers upside the head. And Mika could clean up the mess.

Perhaps Ms. Brzezinski should decide who she is and who she wants to be and then be that. She’s smart so why not be that? She knows damn well if my neighbor throws a brick through my window and I retaliate in same I cannot blame him. I’m going down for my choices…no matter what prompted them. She’s supposed to be a voice of reason so why not be that? Why jump on the GOP’er ā€œall over the placeā€ wagon? Ask them if they aren’t the "accept personal responsibility ) crowd, at least in talk, so why doesn’t their credo apply here. She doesn’t have to make lame equivalencies. She does not owe them that nor do they deserve that. They sure as hell never do it for her.

The take home message is the GOP’er response to it. It’s a gross act of racism, institutional at that, and yet they see fit to excuse it away. To them it doesn’t deserve criticism it deserves an excuse that relies on impugning a Black guy that had fucking nothing to do with it. Each time this crap comes out the GOP makes the Black guy a thug or the White guy a victim. A Black guy is always the problem and the White guy always has an excuse.

Mika might try that LexisNexis icon in front of her and pull up a few examples of GOP’er crap before she has one on again. This was an easy shoot down but instead of hitting the GOP’er between the eyes she shot off her own foot. Sad.

Wonder how Mika would look in mouse ears with her name on her sweater?

These people talk for a living…endlessly- so it is no surprise that they say bat shit crazy things in any given week.However, these two seem to be making up stuff as they go along and while entertaining to some not great for people looking for consistently useful info…

Sidekick Mika Brzezinski is to Scarborough what the GOP Congress is being to the 47 Traitors, well, Bobby Jindal wants to be included, so 48. ALL bear the same guilt for actions of the other because they did nothing when they could’ve controlled the situation.

This was clean up?

Looks more like digging deeper to me.

If you can’t criticize a woman without using sexist slurs, perhaps you should remain silent.

Sniffit STFU is dried up, dessicated and crumbled into dust it seems. Derp is running rampant. Greai example just now on CNN was a black newscaster talking to a Grand derp of the KKK broadcasting via skype from his mom’s basement. He was wearing a black cone on his head and sunglasses. Backed up by a confederate flag and a KKK flag. it’s amazing the complete thoughtlessness that’s around these days
