Senate Dem Women Are Boycotting Morning Joe

Because the hosts are being sensible, the majority of the ladies in the Senate will not go on, according to Buzzfeed:

“The women Senators are up in arms. They think the coverage is slanted, Mika is not doing enough to articulate their position, and they can’t get equal time,” a Democrat familiar with the situation told BuzzFeed.

How hilarious. So Joe's been hit for the last couple of years by Bozell and company for not being conservative enough and now the other side's hitting Mika for not being enough of a leftie? Hmmm. Maybe left of center and right of center is too darned rational for the extremists.

I think citing Buzzfeed as a source of reliable political news explains a lot.

Breaking News! Cat Videos are abortion propaganda! LOL.

If they want equal time, let them start their own talk show.

How like a liberal, demanding others give them for free, what they can't earn on their own.

I boycott morning joe all the time too, and the female host should try to put a shirt on with sleeves from time to time. She looks so vulnerable next to all the guys with suits on.

As a conservative, I think this is hilarious.

As a woman, it makes me mad. Way to go ladies! Show the world how petty women in power can be. Show the world how you don't have enough confidence in your position that you need to demand a bigger cheering section before you go in to play.

I wouldn't vote for a woman Senator that took this position on the conservative side. It makes you look weak.

You would think, then, that they would jump at the chance to go on in order to set the record straight. If they won't, it must be because they suspect their foolish positions would be exposed, and they would be unable to coherently defend themselves.

But then, we already knew that.

So the solution for not having their side adequately represented is to refuse to represent their side? They don't get equal time so they want 0 instead?

Hello?

I would say that they are taking their ball and going home. BUT they are leaving the ball behind!

These are the folks we send to govern us. Sad.
