Scarborough on Bush's cheap shot at Edwards
You know I normally wouldn't post a Repub - but this is good.

Today, President Bush took a shot at John Edwards, suggesting the U.S. senator was ill-prepared to be vice president of the United States.

The attack was a cheap shot: John Edwards has served the same amount of time in the Senate as George W. Bush served as governor of Texas when he was elected president. The Texas legislature only meets every other year and the governorship of the Lone Star State has long been considered one of the weakest positions of its kind in America. Add to it that Edwards has sat on the intelligence committee through the days before and after September 11th. You could argue that Edwards has more experience in key areas than George W. Bush did when he ran in 2000.

1. Hmmm
What's up with that? Sorry but the cynic in me refuses to believe a puke like Scarborough would deliberately take an anti-administration line. Maybe they've done some in-house polling that indicated this talking point was a dud?

2. Why the hell is the intern slayer defending Edwards so adamantly?
There's gotta be a reason.

Maybe Edwards has the goods on him.

3. Yeah, this is uncharacteristic for Murderin' Joe
Whatever the reason is, I;m sure there is a reason for this.

Either that or Naziu Monsters are suddenly overflowing with the "milk of human kindness" for their Juden foes.

4. Could it be the Numbers, or the Noise, that ole Joe is shifting gears?
The On The Fence Guy Mode???

Objective Horse?

Can see the Bush Lash making a comeback...as in BACKLASH.

Cause: Team Bush has seen its salad days. Members of the Team were taught eary on...no waves, no shit, no shifting from the Pub mantra...Seems like only Ass kissers remain. Bush made most of the calls.

Came crunch time: Need solutions, OOps, The Non Ass Kissers took all the Good Solutions with them...the whole bloody lot...

If these guys cannot come up with good ideas on how to make themselves look good,

Could it possibly be its the result of Bad Ideas in the first place...?

jus askin.....

5. Reason Number 1: Scarborough's law firm handles personal injury cases
Reason Number 2-I think he actually likes John Edwards-he was highly complimentary towards him in the primaries.
