Oh goodness goodness goodness, everyone else on the Morning Joe set giggles nervously and says, “UMMMMM” after Joe Scarborough very casually says “Fuck you.” Even Mike Barnacle is scandalized! And then Joe Scarborough apologizes: “Great apologies, my wife is going to kill me.” He will be sent to Guantanamo for this. [YouTube]
Ha ha, Joe Scarborough is filth. He’s lucky President Obama isn’t in power yet, for profanity is considered an abomination in the Koran.
That dirty, nasty man.
“Come to Momma” What is she thinking?
Haha. Morning Foulmouth. He also said “member”.
Holy shit!
Scarborough has really gone off the deep end, hasn’t he? Seriously, I can’t watch that show anymore. Schadenfreude gets boring after a while.
Enh, it would have been way funnier if he told Mike Bah-nah-cle “fuck you.”
What’s the whisper at :43 ?
The look on Barnacle’s face is priceless, though.
Itsjustme: She’s thinking Joe wants to breastfeed on her titties?
We’ll do it live! We’ll DO IT LIVE, FUCK IT!
Haha. Of course, the biggest affront to general decency is Joe’s smug squishy frat boy face.
This actually makes me hate Joe a little less for some strange reason.
Hah, he whispers to someone around 0:43 “Was it F?” I guess not, sailor!
That’s pretty sad that dunderhead Mika has to explain to Joe the difference between ‘off air’ & live teevee. What’s with all these right wing, nut job Christians cussing like sailors–is that how Jesus would talk?
“Foreclosure”
Itsjustme: She also goes “Um, honey?” at around 0:16. Eww, anchor-on-anchor action at MSNBC. Punditcest. Gross!
I was more offended by the walk-back. “If I actually said the word…” dude, it was a minute ago! Sure, blame the Ambien. Wuss.
Also, what true American says “great apologies?” YOU SOUND LIKE YOU OWN A 7-11, SON! “A thousand pardons, sahib.”
I fucking love Joe Scarborough!
What set it off? WebSense haet the Utubez and won’t let m3 b corrupted bai swearz.
I would have a hard time saying , Let me ask Chuck, Joe… without pursing my lips and stuff coming out my nose.
That word gets you a fee
From the old FCC,
That’s our mores!
I missed this by a few minutes. Can’t wait to hear what Scarborough has to say now about FCC v. Fox Television Stations, 07-582; argued before SCOTUS just last Tuesday. Last week he was all for fining folks who use ‘fleeting explitives.’
This sucks. I watched part of Morning Joe this morning and turned it off just a minute or so before the above part aired. That’s when I started getting ready to go to work. I swear, this job is ruining my life.
Joe Scarborough: Best Republican Ever!
Joe: “…Decent, steady men that don’t go around flipping people off or screaming ‘fuck off’ at the top of their lungs…”
Everyone else on panel: “Um, uh, umm, *cough*…”
Joe: (oblivious he’d said it) “That was a Jay Carney story…” (rattles off a bit more, other people start talking, he figures out about half a minute later he said it and gives awful apology)
Another side effect of ambien: Sleep-newscasting
mattbolt: Oh, she likeys the dirty talk!
Since MSNBC is cable, and not over-the-air TV, they could run 24-hour-a-day hardcore pundit porn and not incur the wrath of the FCC.
Fly-over Correspondent: not a terrible idea….or is it?
from last week’s 30Rock -
Liz: Coma-napra-sill? May cause dizziness, sexual nightmares, and sleep crime.
Jack: It’s very good.
add “on-air F-bombs” to that list, Liz Lemon.
p.s. i am abso-fucking-lutely adding “Great apologies” to my everyday casual vocabulary of interwebz memes.
Was he quoting McCain’s response when Palin asked to give a concession speech?
from the nate silver article today:
“When we took him to preschool one time, we dropped him off, and he announced, ‘Today, I’m a numbers machine,’ and started counting,” Brian Silver said. “When we picked him up two and a half hours later, he was ‘Two thousand one hundred and twenty-two, two thousand one hundred and twenty-three…’ ”
OK i know this site loves to make him geek chic now but can this revelation cost him a few weeks of being a loser again?
The funniest thing about it was that Joe was theoretically quoting Rahm Emanual. Jay Tierney told a story about first meeting Rahm at the White House AGES back and having asked some questions that must have made Rahm a teeny bit upset. When Jay got back to his car, his in-car cell phone rang. When he picked it up, all he heard was Rahm saying, “Fuck you! Fuck you! Fuck you!”
To quote Tierney, “I hope he continues to be that way. We could use some swearing in the White House.” Seconded!
Obama’s FCC will fine MSNBC ten billion dollars.
Uh oh, Joe, you just lost the base!
Why is he taking Ambien in the morning? Fuck you Schadenfreude, you are becoming annoyingly overused!
That wasn’t nearly as offensive as most of the stuff that comes out of his mouth.
This is Obama’s fault. Somehow.
Wait, Joe The Plummer Scarborough wasn’t always that gray or bald, was he?
Democracy is a bitch for one’s looks, just ask Sarah Palin.
..’yelling fuck you..”
It what way, Joe?
oh i love joe scarborough! he’s so cute. he doesnt look bald or gray so hush!
Dramatic Chipmunk Coanchor! I’ve watched :07 - :10 about a dozen times. It’s not old yet.
We’re in Obama’s America now, Guantanamo has been replaced by a pillow fight room at a two star Bahamas resort. It’s kind of shitty and the government agents are hitting you kinda hard with the pillows, but you don’t feel the basic tenets of our country are getting violated too bad.

Is it wrong that the slip just makes me love Rahm Emanuel more? http://tinyurl.com/565e7e
i think this is called talking over the media filter, straight to the american people
This is an outrage! I don’t believe any motherfucking asshole cocksucker has the right to say ‘fuck’ on a fucking cable-polesmoking-news program. If this shit continues, I will fucking be pissing irate.
I have to admit, Joe was one of my guilty pleasure crushes from the Republican Revoltinglution thing of the 90s. His politics are trash, but he’s white trash of the highest quality and super cute, especially back in the day when he was temporally closer to his frat boy days and his pledge master and his pledge master’s paddle.
What else should I be
Great apologies
What else could I say
Everyone is gay
Ha ha–oh no, Joe–fuck YOU.
In what respect, Joe?
-SP
mattbolt: “great” thanks, laughing again at that asshat O’Reily was exactly what I needed to start my week, you’re a true humanitarian
I hate when people use “F-word” or “N-word”, instead of just saying the word. It’s not like they’re actually fooling anyone.
WTF!? Is he so clueless he doesn’t know what comes out of his mouth? Joe you’re a putz.
All kinds of weird shit can happen when you have bottled up loser-rage and the bloviating gene but try to sell yourself as a genial, nonpartisan moderate.
Check out Andy Borowitz’s take on it: http://www.borowitzreport.com/
blackdontcrack: The Cold Sea: Both of you are making me feel better about my secret Joe Scarborough crush. He really was cute back in the day.
I now dub him, “joe the fucker”
The Supreme court can add this to their debate of “incidental usage”.
Another first: http://www.buster-get-my-pills.com/2008/11/10/words-never-before-seen-on-the-internet-until-now/
Mr.BorgtoYou: Probably because he so conflicted about what goes in his mouth…
Meh, big deal. I talk like that to my grade school kids all the time and they are turning out great!
Oh Lord, what will happen when the F-word is uttered on a cable network that complies with a ratings system and program/channel block! The moral fabric of the nation unravels. I’m writing to Ted Stevens. What’s his block/cell number?
1. Won’t someone think of the children?!!!11!
2. My ears! THEY BLEEEEED!11!!
3. GOOD! Goooooood…..Feel the anger grow within you! Become a maverick!
Oh Joe, you’ve shown yourself to be human. It’s all over now!
nurple: Are you an Alaskan “native”? No? Then I’ll summarize your reply:
*Cough*
Ahem..
FUCK YOU.
*Cough*
Sincerely,
TED STEVENS ‘08!!!!
Maybe Joe was subversively using ventriloquism in an attempt to get dopey and irritating Mika fired.
Joe Scarborough: Dropping the F-bomb so that Big Bird does not have to.
Oh, geez, upon review, I note he was just quoting what Rahmn Emmanuel might say if he was suitably irate. Give him a fucking break, already.
Also, when will we get the first feature film, “Rahm Emmanuel in Bangkok”?
WIDTAP: And actually ending up being the more amusing “dropper” in the process. Joe, I raise my cop-o-joe to you, sir.
The most ridiculous part was him saying that the show is for adults and then solely apologizing to any children that may have been watching. Well alrighty then Joe,in the next segment of your adults only program why don’t u put on a bbc having buttsex with an amateur bbw on the tamron hall’s desk.
WIDTAP: make that CUP-o-joe. Damn my fast clicking finger!
mattbolt: You nailed it! Yes, you just made me realize that this entire strange turn in his reporting is about him trying to compete with Bill O’Reilly, but it’s not working. He’s not quite crazy enough. He’s just an asshole, not a psycho so it’s just strange.
I wonder if you can waterboard with lovebuoy soap.
This hypothetical Fuck You had me so much more excited than it deserved, he wasn’t even saying it towards anybody!
loudmouthredhead: Cop-o-joe sounded naughtier…
How did he not know he said “fuck?” When I say “Fuck” (regularly) I know I said “Fuck.”
Here’s the link to the FCC complaint form.
http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm?sid=d1e640&id=d1e669
Please file a complaint right now. “Liberal” media outlets and figures have suffered at the hands of the Bush FCC for years now, for identical offenses. Time for a little well deserved payback.
Scarborough… that name has always bothered me. If it were me I’d change it. Who wants to go through life called ’scabbytown’?
Wait! He was referring to . . . Dick Cheney? Wasn’t he? Wasn’t it Big Dick Cheney who said to someone in Congress FUCK YOU and who flips people off and who is very, very well hung?
Once more, just for posterity:
http://wonkette.com/images/omg.jpg
I would like to see that thing, though it would require, I expect, viewing B.D.Cheney in his less than glorious full nakedness. Still . . .
Were we talking about Joe Scarborough. Fuck him. Hope the religious zealots heard that, the casual utterance of the F word, something no true Republican is supposed to ever do.
http://wonkette.com/politics/white-house/big-dick-cheney-oh-yes-very-big-025650.php
He’s like the Republican Vladimir Pozner. He seems almost human.
psychedelicSludge: Doesn’t he? Ya almost love the guy for it too.
sheaftosser: MSNBC is a liberal media outlet. Unless Keith Olbermann is secretly working for the Republicans, I think your idea might be counterproductive.
MSNBC is hardly a liberal media outlet. We’ve been so inundated with right wing propaganda, we don’t know liberal when we see it. Two MSNBC hosts of evening news analysis programs appear to have a slightly liberal leaning. The rest? Hardly.
I hear you, but I disagree. MSNBC’s hands have not been clean in this whole neocon propaganda war the country has been suffering through the last decade. They keep wingnuts like Scarborough on the air in a misguided effort to be “fair and balanced”.
And the goodness or badness of MSNBC is really beside the point; the right wing abuse of FCC power needs to be stopped and this is as good a place as any to start.
Bob Novak thinks this scandal is bullshit, and he hates it.
Fuck you, Joe. Seriously…fuck you.
Now we know that Mornin’ Joe is hangin’ out with Dick Cheney or totally spending his off-hours on wonkette.
I don’t hate Joe for swearing. I hate Joe for breathing.
Man…you would think the guy killed someone or something…oh wait…yeah…Lori Klausutis…”hit her head” my ass…
what is “contrived”, alex.
Palin-Plumber2012: NO WAY! I’m more in love than ever and super excited about what our children will be like. Will they be number machines who count all day long? Or, will they be precocious, loquacious Dorothy-from-Wizard-of-Oz impersonators, making everyone shut up at family parties while performing “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”? (Yes, I am completely of this.)Maybe, they’ll be a hybrid and perform “Three Is a Magic Number” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPzAjiLr5Zw) at Christmas/ Hanukkah family gatherings. I can’t wait to find out.
Erm, I think I had too much coffee (acid?) today.
“I hate when people use “F-word” or “N-word”, instead of just saying the word. It’s not like they’re actually fooling anyone.”
—
Well, there actually is a good reason for doing it. See, when I say to you, “Eat shit,” I don’t actually push a plate of steaming fecal matter into your face. I just use words to conjure up the mental image.
It’s a kool trick.
Morning Joe is an F-Word, many F-Words actually.
paolaccio: Rush Limbaugh made drug abuse among wingnuts not only acceptable but chic as well.
I think severe punishment is in order. Of course I ALWAYS think severe punishment is in order.
Min: First of all, why are you even referring to the N-word; it has nothing to do with the story. The F-word and N-word have totally different histories. I’m black, and I prefer that people say the N-Word rather than the actual word. It may not make a difference to you, but it makes a difference to black people. When somebody calls you something that they used to call people who looked like you before, during, after, they lynched them, it’s just annoying. The F-word doesn’t refer to a group of people; it refers to an action, an attitude or an emotion. Different meaning, and different history. Do you understand what I’m fucking saying?
I think there should be more use of the F word on news programs.
