Revealed: MSNBC is "Official Obama Network," Says Disappointed Former Producer
— Ace

I know you all are still reeling from this mind-ripping disclosure, so I'll play some comforting music to let adjust to the strange new reality you find yourselves in.

Okay, if that didn't do it, play it seven or eight times until your brain heals.

Now that you've recovered, here's your informational LSD.

When it comes to issues of U.S. militarism and spying, the allegedly “progressive” MSNBC often seems closer to the “official network of the Obama White House” than anything resembling an independent channel. With a few exceptions (especially Chris Hayes [10]), MSNBC has usually reacted to expanded militarism and surveillance by downplaying the abuses or defending them.

Had McCain or Romney defeated Obama and implemented the exact same policies, treating whistleblowers like Manning and Snowden as foreign espionage agents, one would expect MSNBC hosts to be loudly denouncing the Republican abuses of authority.

I see many of you are still too stunned to even comment "first." One guy apparently just had a seizure and commented, "HGOH{RU NQ{)UT_{U{)ON U NP(GIH." Another guy's all like "Aaaagggh!" like Mr. Book just psi-slammed him in Dark City.

So for those of you still trying to put the pieces of your soulpatterns back into working order, here's the nonthreatening musical stylings of Don "No Soul" Simmons.


More: It's a Father-Son MSNBC tag-team on Glenn Greenwald.

An MSNBC reporter's dad, who claims to be part of some "peacenet" dealio but who seems to be flacking in favor of Obama's spy state, criticized Greenwald, and Greenwald criticized back.

Then MSNBC reporter jumped in to say "f*** you" to Greenwald, but he didn't say it with like asterisks, he used Grown Up Language.

I now see her about 3 times a year and we discuss nothing but children and general stuff like restaurants and inconsequential things.

It's like she got frozen in the politics of our youth,  when we were both liberals.  I grew out of it,  but she didn't.

I think I could write an algorithm to score their facial structure and they'd all come out within percentages of each other. Dude must be packing some heavy wood to score those kinds of women.

In more ways than one...

I had forgotten that Linda Evans was married to John Derek too, before Bo.

If you have 5 minutes read the original tweet with all the responses. Greenwald insults Adam's daddy, Serwer actually tweets "that's my DAD you're insulting"

The lefty vs lefty slapfight is popcorn worthy, especially when Max Blumenthal joins in to tell them that Adam Serwer libeled him.

I don't usually listen to Hannity's radio show, but Guiliani was guest hosting today. He had good insights into the case, felt the prosecution has completely failed to present a case. Said they should never have entered the Hannity interview with Zimmerman as evidence, you never give the accused a way out of appearing on the stand if you can help it. Also thinks that the defense needs to show pics of Trayvon at the age he was when he died, no more of these angelic kiddie pics, and needs to stress how tall the kid was. Also that zimmerman should have been kept to his weight during the night of the shooting and not been allowed to stress eat. He looks bigger now, and harder to knock down in a fight.

Oh, an apparently Guiliani once served as foreman on a jury when he was mayor. It was a ridic suit, they threw the case out. A legal underling handled the jury selection, he is pretty sure that when the bigwigs in the law firm realized how stupid he'd been to let guiliani on the jury the poor underling got canned. Was an amusing story.
