Morning Joe
Mika "Mommy" Brzezinski cannot decide whether she's the boys' Mommy, equal, co-host, coffee getter, breakfast maker or pretty host with a famous dad. This morning it's breakfast maker.
MIKA: Well, I've got two gentlemen here, I've got to serve them breakfast. Willie Geist and Mark Halperin.
Isn't that what I do?
JOE: Uhmm. You're gonna have to answer that question for yourself.
It doesn't appear that she has.
Later they're about Gov Paterson and Caroline Kennedy and the crazy rumors.
JOE: Mark Halperin, what's a euphemisms for saying one thing in a public statement like that, and then trashing her behind the scenes saying, 'hey, dig through all of her personal garbage'.
MIKA (off camera): Like you should talk!
Then they started in on Gitmo. Joe ranted on about how they can't be released and that Mika can go down there and figure out which ones are innocent and send them to her neighborhood.
MIKA: Either I will go down and do that or you'll go down there and shoot them all.
He continues and she shakes her head rolls her eyes and crosses her arms.
Then comes the politifact.com dude with the "obameter" (a high tech pinocchio's nose) and they discussed barry's stump promises. It's good somebody has the time to follow them all. I'll bet he keeps less than 20%. But he's changed so many times already. The stuff he said in the primaires he changed as soon as he started the general and then the transition...Anyway they have sound effects to go with the categories. "Stalled" came up which sounds like you would imagine and Mika says "Sounds like my car." And the dude said "Yeah, I think that's the idea."
They make fun of her and she says nothing. At least on air. And yet she was happy to pontificate about how Madame Secretary and Gov Palin were not treated in a sexist fashion. She hasn't settled on Caroline Kennedy. Whatever is happening with her is wrong. Doesn't her uncle have any pull left?
