Why is morning joe treating the G20 protesters

as if they were serious. These clowns protest every economic summit that isn’t held in a country that will crack down (ie china). You have a group of professional protesters and hangers on. Why they treat them as serious I don’t know.
But wasn’t the great power of the love of Obama supposed to cause this stuff to not happen anymore, shouldn’t they be dropping flowers?
And I don’t know what Barnicle has against bloggers but that is one bug he needs to remove from his posterior.
7:39 a.m. These guys are as surprised as I am over Stevens.
7:41 a.m. It is April fools day so we have to be careful on this, but people needs to learn to be polite.
7:47 a.m. Willie asks the why are they protesting Barak the good and is told what I’ve already said, these guys are just background noise.
8:11 a.m. Matthews talks about Reagan as a reader, he never talked like that when he was in the White House.
8:13 a.m. The desire to pretend that George Bush wasn’t a reader and thinker overrides any kind of reality.
8:25 a.m. It is amazing to hear so much BS concerning Israel and Syria at one time. Hamas won? Only an idiot like this guy could say that.
8:28 a.m. Oh boy this guy reveals that Clinton saved the head of Hamas’ life, what a joy. Another reason to love him.
8:36 a.m. If Mark is singing Wooley Booley that is just as interesting as the financial news.
8:53 a.m. Another reason to love Alyssa Milano. Let me stress that Baseball is the most perfect sport there has ever been.
Katrina vanden Heuvel I’m not the only one…

…who noticed that she is still out there defending communists:
When it is suggested that the Kremlin was involved in the assassination of journalists, including Putin critic Anna Politskaya, she shakes her head and tell Scarborough that the “rot started in Chechnya.” One reporter for Novoya Gazeta, a paper vanden Heuvel recently visited while in Moscow and holds up as an example of Russia’s free press, told Reuters that “prosecutors had tried to solve the case and were ordered to back off when the trail led to someone ‘quite high up in the ruling hierarchy.'” But when the deaths of journalist Anastasia Baburova and lawyer Stanislav Markelov are discussed, vanden Heuvel quickly assigns blame to “neo-Nazis,” though no arrests have been made in the case and many at Novoya Gazeta, where Baburova worked, suspect government involvement.
What people forget is the before the Soviet Union fell and the Venona files came out, intellectuals often spouted this nonsense, Kennedy, Biden et/al the worshiped senators/vp’s now where talking about working with or appeasing the Soviets. The press and the smart people hated Reagan for his willingness to stand up to Soviet Aggression. (At the time it was the one thing I agreed with him on.) After they came out they and the press conveniently forgot which side they had been on.
Expect a lot more of this stuff as these people are mainstreamed.

6:32 a.m. They joke about Bibi moving in tanks, hey lets drop rockets on their studio and see what they do?
6:34 a.m. “30 years of incompetence” says Barnicle. Nobody mentions the Union contracts and how the auto makers in the south are doing fine.
6:35 a.m. Brown mentions the unions.
6:40 a.m. Joe is dying from laughter from this stuff on Glenn Beck, but they point out that they are talking about it. The Barnicle shot is VERY funny.
6:42 a.m. Monsters? Barnicle is having a ton of fun.
7:16 a.m. Mika objects to the idea of giving the customer what they want. Boy is that a reporter or not?
