I put up with MSNBC in morning because of MSNBC in the evening.

Joe sucks ass. Ed and David have been KICKING ASS.

Tonight MSNBC has been fantastic tonight. There is nothing else on TV worth watching.

1. Why don't you just ignore MSNBC in the morning and watch it in the evening?

Seems like a pretty reasonable solution.

3. Because my only other choices are far worse.

I'm into politics. Name one other choice. CNN? Today? Fox & Friends isn't even in the running, not for a second. GMA? Get serious.

So...I wake up and, force of habit turn on the tube for some weather reports and the daily nooz. Who do I pick? My local stations give me drivel that is even more insipid than the Today show's endless cooking/fashion/Where the **** Is Matt? segments. So what, as a political junkie, do you suggest is a better choice?

Personally, I like the "balance," contrived as it is. I like to cuss and spit coffee out my nose every time Mika bends under the desk and sucks Joe's dick. I know what his shtick is, and I like to stay apprised on the enemy position.

If any of you have a serious recommendation -- besides simply turning off the TV, which I won't likely do -- then please, offer your suggestions.

4. Why don't you just not watch TV in the morning?

It's not good for your brain!

5. Yeah, sure....and why not stop drinking coffee in the morning?

I get your point. But get real.

I used to jump out of bed the minute I awoke. Now...I linger. I sip my coffee, I watch my TV.

So, that being the case...back to my op.

Here's you go, Pedro.  Read them in the morning and these sites will give you all the information you need to know. And be a good little liberal and don't question them, you mindless idiot.

Who the hell is watching TV all morning?  I thought Pedro had some "high paying" job?  Shouldn't that be keeping him away from watching crap-tacular morning television?

Pedro Picasso works in "advertising" or "graphic arts" for a political-activist group.

We know how that goes; when stuff needs folded and inserted into envelopes, all hands get busy; nobody's "too important" to do it.

I imagine Pedro Picasso watches television at work, while stuffing those envelopes.
