Settling Family Business


I have noticed that at least two of the high-profile, on-air people MSNBC has cut loose in recent memory have also been people who have publicly embarrassed Young Luke Russert.

Which is interesting.

A coincidence, perhaps? How hard can it be to embarrass Luke Russert?

Little Luke.....prime example of being born on third base and thinking you've hit a triple. And the next MSNBC host on the chopping block looks to be MHP. I very much doubt that she'll be hosting her own show come Saturday. Which brings to mind another question DG, wasn't the plan always for Gregory to keep the seat warm til the heir apparent, Little Luke, was ready to take over?

Oh dear god, please don't let it be so. Although it's hard to see how Lukers could be worse than the Dancing Master. We are so fucked but then that's always been the case.

Luke has been trained from birth for this role, the farce is strong with this one.

There's that old saying about never asking "how could it get any worse?" Well, Luke Russert hosting MTP would be a patronage travesty to put along side the embarrassment of Chris Wallace. And I would hate to see Melissa gone.

As to Dylan Ratigan, I thought he was history after the summer of 2011 (when sequestration deal was struck). He had epic meltdowns/rants that included how many trillions the Fed was printing to prop up Wall Street, non-taxed off shore corporate profits, and how the financial big boys bought off both parties.

I was wrong, MHP is hosting her show today. Maybe Mr. Griffin is beginning to grow a pair.
