Have we had it all wrong about Mika Brzezinski? All this time we've pigeon-holed her as part of the Eastern liberal media elite, was she in fact secretly part of the Sarah Palin demographic? It's not quite field-dressing a moose, but Mika let it be known today that she knows how to hunt and . . . has "gutted a deer."
The revelation came as Mika and Joe Scarborough were saying goodbye to Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), who, by the way, seemed optimistic that John McCain would make it to Mississippi for tonight's debate.
View video here.
JOE SCARBOROUGH: Lindsey, good seeing you again. I will see you very soon.LINDSEY GRAHAM: We'll go hunting.
SCARBOROUGH: Ah, maybe not, I care about everybody.
MIKA BRZEZINSKI: Joe, I don't ever want to see you fire a shotgun. But I could go hunting with the senator, I've gutted a deer, and, you know, I can handle it. You? Not so much.
SCARBOROUGH: Keep guns out of my hands. Dangerous.
Given this remarkable revelation, could there be more surprising disclosures about Mika to come? Member of the Women's Bassmaster Tour, perhaps? For that matter, could "Susan Butcher Manley" be Mika's nom-de-musher as the three-time winner of Alaska's Iditarod dogsled race?

September 26, 2008 - 09:23 ET by Dee Bunkat Morning Joe then she looks good. I still think she'll vote for Obama. The rest of that show is pretty much a commercial for Obama.

Mika you go girl
September 26, 2008 - 09:30 ET by well99You just need to get out to the Northwest and enjoy life.Hunting and fishing are part of the life.
On Scarborugh's comment...
September 26, 2008 - 09:41 ET by Saint Zeroif he's being honest, then good for him. If you're worried about handling a gun, please don't pick it up. I support Gun Rights without question, but I don't own one.
I also know plenty of liberals who go hunting. It's a common sport here in Mississippi.
yeah
September 26, 2008 - 09:42 ET by MrltavernYeah, ok. If she gutted a dear then I'm Mother Cabrini.
M. Cabrini, I need a letter of recommendation

Please Mika, tell us the procedure in gutting a deer.
What did you use to bring the deer down?
Where and when did this happen? What season?
You know, like you'd ask Palin about . . . anything.

September 26, 2008 - 12:22 ET by MearlineI'd be willing to bet that in her mind changing handbags from a deerskin bag to her alligator bag is the equivalent of 'gutting a deer'. Gutted a deer my Dooney and Burke.

September 26, 2008 - 09:59 ET by JoelCTI always knew Joe was a wuss.
Both of my kids handle all kinds of weapons. You should see my son handle my carbine. My daughter keeps asking me to take her to shoot my .38 and 9mm, I just keep putting it off.
Joe is one of those, "Ewww, get that scary thing away from me" kind of guys. I hope he never has to defend his family.
I'd love to watch Mika empty my handguns at the range. Women with guns = very sexy.
I'm not sure if having the
September 26, 2008 - 10:12 ET by GlitchI'm not sure if having the cranberry glazed almond crusted venison at the country club qualifys as "gutting a deer" but what ever gets you through the day there Mikey.
Americans are far more remarkable than we give ourselves credit for. We've been so busy damning ourselves for years. We've done it all, and yet we don't take credit for it.

September 26, 2008 - 10:21 ET by Alpedhuez55I think she had her Plush Bambi Doll tear open and had the stuffing fall out.

I have to call BS on this
September 26, 2008 - 10:42 ET by UtherpendI have to call BS on this one. More than likely she watched a Youtube video of someone gutting a deer.
Waste of good air
September 26, 2008 - 10:52 ET by doug1950Maybe she gutted one out on the highway with her Beemer. Joe used to be our Congressman but since bailing out of politics as a career he has become such a weenie and tows the line at MSNBC and has become insignificant other than being a metrosexual male who occasionally gets his panties in a wad when crossed. A major disappointment locally for when he first surfaced he was very conservative. He has to play along with his handlers at MSNBC because they are the ones paying the bills for him. The only time I watch Morning Joe is when they have short clips of them on NB, otherwise it is a waste of my time and electricity. The whole string of shows on MSNBC is like watching High School antics and personalities. Im sure a psycologist could have a field day with all the warped and weird personalities / egos on that network.
doug...a question for you
September 26, 2008 - 11:24 ET by BlondeSince Joe was your congresscritter.
I heard that about the same time as the Gary Condit/Chandra Levy thing, that a Scarborough staffer turned up dead in his office.
Not much to be found on the internet....kind of looked like some sort of coverup.
What is your recollection of that?

Thanks Doug
September 26, 2008 - 11:59 ET by BlondeThat's about what I found the first time I heard of it and tried to do a little research.
All very odd.

September 26, 2008 - 12:21 ET by doug1950Yur Welcome!
Like I said, he used to be very popular, well respected and liked here in the Panhandle. I really liked him while he was our Congressman but something happened. Who knows, maybe he took a swig out of Pat Buchannan's hip flask of whatever he has been drinking, cuz he changed drastically around the same time.
At the risk of overstating
September 26, 2008 - 11:29 ET by lotrAt the risk of overstating the obvious, it sounds like Mika is attempting a game of one-upmanship against feminine arch-rival Sarah Palin.

September 26, 2008 - 11:49 ET by well99Mika more than Joe has stuck up for Sara.Even yesterday she show I believe the NYPost with a picture of first dude with the baby.
well...
September 26, 2008 - 12:01 ET by lotr...perhaps it is a case of "imitation being the sincerest form of flattery"? It would be nice, but I'm skeptical. I thought Mika was in the tank for Obama?
lotr
September 26, 2008 - 12:03 ET by well99She is but strange as it sounds there have been quite a few times when she stuck up for Sara.I had to take a nitro.Joe also seems to be in the tank for Obama.
Yahoo story "Online tool estimates taxes under McCain, Obama "
September 26, 2008 - 11:50 ET by MaximusBraveheartSomeone have comments on this?
http://news.yahoo.co...
Web site for estimating YOUR OWN taxes under McCain vs. Obama. I think it is rigged towards Obama:
http://www.electiont...
They deleted my comments on Obama and IL politics. The 'change' you want...lol. My taxes came out about $3000 higher under McCain vs. 2007 actual taxes. And about another $10,000 more ($13,000 total more v. 2007) (+8% vs. McCain) under Obama. I am skeptical that Obama will only tax 8% more than McCain. Who runs this website? Not sure there "background:" http://www.electiont...
McCain needs to CUT govt. and LOWER taxes. That is the only way to FIX our economy. Too much FAT, too little "free" enterprise!
So she's gutted a deer...so
September 26, 2008 - 12:58 ET by marpelSo she's gutted a deer...so have I and more. It takes a lot more than gutting a deer to get her into the "club". I'd like to see how she holds up camping out in the freezing cold in a tent with no mascara around. Then we'll see what's what.
Who is she trying to fool?
September 26, 2008 - 14:07 ET by kevinm13Mika may have gutted a deer (with the front end of her car), but comments like this are usually made by these TV talking heads to appeal to some segment of the audience. She is still a liberal Obama-loving shill.
NOT QUITE ENOUGH,MIKA

Bubbles Brzezinski this Load if for You
September 26, 2008 - 15:20 ET by Lame CherryBubbles, you have gone and done it, somehow you look to me now extremely attractive in knowing you harvested venison.
My only problem Bubbles is you never said if it was Zbig who shot the critter and made you gut it or how you actually killed it.
I mean Bubbles if you ran it over with your old man's Hummer that really don't count sister.
I want to compare stories though Bubbles as you now intrigue me. I'm about to birth a very big black powder rifle and we could plan a hunt.
Who knows Bubbles, a weekend with me and you might be talking about babies instead of fetus infanticide, consider praying not just on 9 11 and for the real shocker you might even start using the word Republic instead of that horrid democracy.
Have the old man fire up the Rand jet, take us all over to Poland to blast some Polish critters and we can stop by Sweden and harvest you a moose with my big gun and Zbig can flip the Russians the bird.
Be a wonderful time and honestly thank you, even though you are not fooling me, you at least showed some babe factor in how hot you can be if you just throw down.
PS: Please Bubbles do not tell me you shot that deer with a crossbow or that is just going to burst the bubble.
Hey do you think the old man could get the old armourers in east Europe to turn out a shipload of black powder shotguns for Americans at a cheap price?
Be something he could work on and would help our eastern European allies.
Bubbles I see we need to talk, drop me an email.
