  • Really Katrina, going after Joe Scarborough is like shooting fish in a barrel. The guy is a dolt. Why are you being so polite to him? Why are you helping him sell his book? Why aren’t you trying to sell your book?

    Why do you let him talk for five minutes without interrupting him and then you let him interrupt you over and over again?

    It is frustrating to watch you lay back and let him treat you with such low regard. You have much more to say than he does. He does not respond to your assertions and you let him get away with it by being way too polite. Where is your fire and your anger and your passion? It is not nearly enough just to be right. You have to be convincing. Argue, project, and fight back. We need to win this struggle.
