‘Morning Joe’s’ Mika Brzezinski – Spreading The Class Warfare Over Shoes

Mika Brzezinski, the hall monitor and newscaster on MSNBC's "Morning Jo," wrapped up a nice big birthday present and delivered it to President Obama this morning. What did she get for Mr. Obama? More support for the President's efforts to create a class war between the wealthy and the middle class.

During the show's opening segment (which repeats almost daily in the show's third hour), and in the middle of a serious discussion about the persistent economic problems in our economy, Mika seems to be taken with a story in the NY Times.

Watch as Ms. Brzezinski squirms in her seat, paying almost no attention to the actual topic of the moment, waiting for an opening to shove in a story about a woman buying an expensive pair of shoes (we spared you the pain of watching 2:00 of Mika holding up the paper hoping to be noticed):

Based on all indications, Ms. Brzezinski has no idea about the identity of the woman buying the shoes. The Times identifies the the shameless shoe shopper as Lissette Gutierrez:

She only wants to let the viewers know that buying expensive shoes is "living shamelessly":

Nowhere in her reckless rant does Mika mention anything about the fact that rising sales at luxury retail outlets may be a sign that the economy has turned a corner. Ms. Brzezinski also seems to neglect the fact that luxury stores have to employ workers on many levels. Any sector of the economy that experiences increases in business has the potential to spur growth in many other areas.
