Morning Joe Lavishes Love On Kathleen Parker, Dumps On CNN

All you have to know about why conservatives were dissatisfied with Kathleen Parker as the supposedly conservative counterweight to Eliot Spitzer on the pair's recently-canned CNN show was crystallized on Morning Joe today. The panel unleashed an absolute gush-a-thon over Parker, Mika Brzezinski declaring her "one of my favorite people" and Willie Geist describing her as "a great writer."

For good measure, the MSNBC folks delighted in swiping at rival CNN. Mike Barnicle took top trash-talking honors, claiming Parker had been "brutalized" at the network.

Well, THAT didn’t last long. From what little I bothered to see, the range of political opinion between Spitzer and Parker ran from A to B.

All I can think about when I see Eliot Spitzer is was a slimeball he is. Ick. Whay would anyone care what that pervert’s opinion is about anything?

How could we be dissatisfied? We never watched the show!
In fact, no one watches the show.

The only reason that the MSNBC crowd is sticking up for Parker is because Parker hates Sarah Palin.

Token resistance.
Parker is the straw man argument that is easily refuted, making Spitzer’s lefty screed seem logical.

Mike Barnicle...claiming Parker had been "brutalized" at the network.

I'm surprised Joe and Mika didn't offer to perform a "rape kit" on Parker right there on live TV...
