Cher really wasn’t feeling MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” Thursday morning. But it’s safe to say she wasn’t disgusted for the reasons we usually are.
Mika Brzezinski can’t get enough of the sweet, sweet Bindergate “scandal.” But Joe Scarborough and Mark Halperin just aren’t that into the manufactured outrage over Mitt Romney’s “binders full of women,” and they let her know.
That’s when Cher decided to tweet a note to self about how to email the “Morning Joe” crew.

That link goes to an answers.com page about how to “send an email to the Joe Scarborogh’s Morning Joe Show.” We’re guessing Cher spelled Scarborough’s name that way when she googled.
If Cher handles email as well as she manages Twitter, we suspect her letter to the “Morning Joe” gang won’t actually go through. But she gave the Twitterverse a taste of what she might write in her screed of feminist outrage.
I’m so fucking angry! There r NO WORDS! Those bastards jumped her & did everything but pat her head & say mika the men are talking politics
— Cher (@cher) October 18, 2012
Who do they think they are ! She was bringing up point that IS IMPORTANT TO US ! His lie was premeditated becaus he didn’t have a truth !
— Cher (@cher) October 18, 2012
Wait … Cher, who claimed contraception is illegal, is accusing Romney of lying? RIP, self-awareness.
Those Chauvinists Didn’t Stop Badgering Her Till emails came in from ANGRY Women..It was 10 to 1 against the Men ! Mitt HAS LIED 2 WOMEN
— Cher (@cher) October 18, 2012
There would be NO Morning Joe W/out Mika! I remember when her father came on the show & cut Joe in half b4 joe even felt the knife! Mika
— Cher (@cher) October 18, 2012
Is her fathers daughter no matter how gently it goes between them ! When her back is against the wall She IS a Brzezinski
— Cher (@cher) October 18, 2012
It seems Cher is most upset because she expects more from MSNBC. She expects … the news.
@JimmyDriscoll But MSNBC IS the News! Joe’s always a little testy,but Ive seen him hold his own with a table of Libs…THIS was a Pile on
— Cher (@cher) October 18, 2012
Snort.
While it’s almost certainly an exercise in futility, here’s a reality check for Cher about the “Morning Joe” discussion. Plenty of men and — gasp! — women understand that this election is about a whole lot more than Romney’s tame admission that he actively recruited female job candidates.
Wow, @MorningJoe people seriously calling out @MorningMika on this binder silliness, telling her they want to discuss issues, not trash.

@JoeNBC you're right Joe, we women don't care about the binders. I don't know why Mika needs to go on and on and on…
— Sarah Olson (@dogcatlady) October 18, 2012
HA!
Sure as the day is long, Mika this morning is outraged, OUTRAGED by…
BINDERS!!
Idiot.
— CoolCzech (@CoolCzech1) October 18, 2012
@Morning_Joe Mika sounds like Chris Matthews! I did not get up early to hear about binders! Is she awake or or that shallow?
— Dot Bright (@MissOkra) October 18, 2012
@MarkHalperin just schooled @morningmika. Ouch! Gotta agree with everything he said; binders are a joke topic, not a pick-apart issue.
— Hilda B. (@hrbenard) October 18, 2012
I wonder if @morningmika demands she get paid same as @joenbc given her dudgeon on equal pay for equal work.
— Jonah Goldberg (@JonahDispatch) October 18, 2012
In the least shocking news of the day, Cher and Mika didn’t have much to say about the other candidate’s record on female employees.
@BiasedGirl I'm so mad,can women be as wrong as Mika? She's bitching about who brought the binder and ignores BO's lower pay 4 women. grrr
— Mme. PB (@MmePB) October 18, 2012
@JoeNBC I wonder if @morningmika. Know @BarackObama pays the women on his staff 18% lessmaybe #bho needs some binders to stop the#waronwomen
— Ryan Coffey (@Coffey321) October 18, 2012
A Democrat War on Women? Cher’s head just exploded. Fortunately there wasn’t much to clean up.
Update:
Looks like Cher couldn’t figure out the whole email thing so she began venting to Mark Halperin on Twitter.
@MarkHalperin Put me in ANY Costume YOU WANT I dont care ! Go where you need to go to make me look “Less Than”! I Was Here Before you came
— Cher (@cher) October 18, 2012
@MarkHalperin & I’ll be here after you’re gone !
Respectfully
CHER— Cher (@cher) October 18, 2012
Well, that’s kind of a letter, what with the whole “Respectfully CHER” thing.
Update:
“Morning Joe” thanks Cher for her contributions. Heh.
@cher…thank you for helping make the show today!
