Honoring a long tradition of liberal women circling the wagons around Dem men accused of impropriety, Mika Brzezinski has come to the defense of Uncle Joe Biden.

On today's Morning Joe, Mika declared that Biden was not being "creepy" when for 20 seconds he put his hands on Stephanie Carter during her husband Ash's swearing in as Defense Secretary. For good measure, Mika claimed Biden "probably" said something sweet. Has Brzezinski spoken with Mrs. Carter, or is she displaying her skills for a second career as Real Psychic Mika?

JOE SCARBOROUGH: Here, let's look at this [holds up "Creepy Veepy!" headline from a New York tabloid].

MIKA BRZEZINSKI: No! He's so nice. Stop it, Joe. I saw you on Way Too Early. saying that it was creepy. It's not creepy. He's so nice. He was probably saying somethingn very sweet.

SCARBOROUGH: She looks just as comfortable as Angela Merkel when George W. Bush decided to rub her shoulders. 

BRZEZINSKI: I'm telling you, she's fine, she's fine.
