Joe Scarborough's Wife Is Going To F-ing Kill Him

Oh miracle of miracles, this sluggish Monday morning has been saved! Joe Scarborough said "fuck you" on Morning Joe this morning, then didn't realize it, while everyone else realized it, and then they had to explain it to him! YAY:

Listen carefully from about 1:05 - 1:26, where you can clearly hear the talking heads try to whisper to Joe what he said without it getting picked up by the microphones. And I love how he blames it on Ambien. (Thanks for the tip, Nick!)

Funnier still that it's in the context of him being unbearably sanctimonious about Barack's Chief of Staff saying it, sometime, somewhere to somebody in his private dealings with them. Given the ease of Joe's slip-up, I'd take it he's got more than a passing familiarity with the word, even if his "wife is going to kill him." Riiiight. So, please spare us the self-righteous horseshit concern over some dirty words, thx. Faux outrage is so Election 08...

Morning Joe is great fun to watch before work every day - not surprised he finally had this kind of slip-up...plus, they get great guests from time to time..such as Bill Murray and Martin Sheen back to back while on location at some charity golf outing...Bill even brought Mika Grey Goose before he hit the first tee...good fun, that Morning Joe!

I PEE GOLD

If he has to apologize for swearing, why doesn't Rupert Murdoch apologize for creating a channel full of this garbage?

Who is he apologizing to? All the children who might be watching Fox News?
