I meant to get up early this morning and watch Mourning Joe. But I confess I overslept. I just know that he had some badass response in defense of his friend Jim Cramer. I know that he must have been red in the face with spit flying everywhere.
Can I look forward to Jon Stewart giving Mourning Joe some extra special attention next week? How about Jim Cramer did he show up and offer some more excuses about the variety show. Did Santelli come out of hiding from Glen Beck's pants pocket?
So did anyone here catch Mourning Joe?
Well it seems that my search has been unsuccessful because...hard to believe but according to
Today on Morning Joe,...Jason Linkin, After Cheering On Cramer, Morning Joe Is Silent About Daily Show Appearance.
But despite having participated in Jim Cramer's charm defensive, and brashly egging him on, and suggesting that there's a structural unfairness to the way Jon Stewart uses "transcripts" and research, and all but labelling the Daily Show as an outpost of pure partisan hackery, the Morning Joe gang couldn't seem to find the time to utter a single blessed word about Cramer's Daily Show appearance.
Though perhaps one is forthcoming!
Late night? I wouldn't have thought going home after the taping, taking a mild sedative, and curling up in a fetal position would have been that taxing for Cramer.
But, okay. Look for Cramer, I guess, next week on MJ. Still, one would have thought the typically chatty MJ crew would have mentioned it, if only in passing. Just saying.
Well at least Jon didn't have to go through this again...
"So now my morning is ruined," Stewart said, "so to cheer up I flipped on to Morning Joe. It was like I liked my coffee: white and bitter. And there's Cramer again!"
