Joe Scarborough giving his repuke guests hell on MSNBC |
|
He keeps interrupting them while letting the dems make their case. He broke out laughing at the guy who brought up racism. The excuses for this port deal are pathetic.

1. Finally...an issue that is so overwhelmingly obvious |
|
(not that Iraq isn't, but whatever). Has the Bush Titanic hit its iceberg?

2. I thought Scarborough was a stalwart conservative. |

I guess this port deal is something we can all agree on.

9. I think he's paleo instead of neo |
|
and Bush Co. lost him with Katrina. He actually stood up and let them have it. Every once in a while he'll freak you out and say ssomething sensible.

24. I know what you mean... |

I have almost a love/hate relationship with Scarborough. He's always completely conservative and I disagree with him on just about everything under the sun, but he usually does give each guest the ability to make his/her point uninterrupted, and his conservative principles really do seem to be just that: principled. He'll criticize anyone regardless of party if the defecit and spending go up.
But then he has a strange pre-occupation with the "Liberal Hollywood Elite" (I mean moreso than even O'Reilly or Hannity), and he was especially disgusting during the whole Schiavo thing, but I chalk that up to his being a former Florida congressman and he was just nurturing his electoral prospects for when the show's through (still disgusting, but of a "typical politician" and not "fundie ideologue" sort).
The best thing I can say about him, though, is that he's nowhere near as revolting politically as anyone on Fox and he seems to be a generally decent person, so I can never get too riled up about him. It's so annoying! :evilgrin:

29. The thing is nobody can rip bushco like Scarborough when they |
|
mess up. I find myself turning on Scarborough ONLY when I know that bushco has messed up so bad that that will be Scarborough's topic. I'll never forget how he harranged bush after the first Kerry debate. It was so sweet I caught the rerun and taped it. }(

I'd always tune to his show after Hurricane Katrina to see him just rip into the Bush Administration. Scarborough strikes me as a conservative, not a "Bushbot" like Hannity. And the real conservatives are just appalled at this deal. I disagree w/most of his opinions, but I do have some respect for him (unlike, say, O'Reilly).

34. Scarborough has admitted that his conservatism has been fueled |
|
by the abortion issue. Now that bozzo the bush has put two conservative justices in, Scarborough feels like he can relax a bit and call them as he sees them.

You could always tell that he wasn't a big fan of Bush, though, just holding his nose in hopes Bush would pass conservative policies. But it seems like Katrina ended his tolerance for that, too. I'm going to admit something - I like Scarborough, always have. Even at his wackiest, you got the sense he believed what he was saying, and he would actually explain his positions instead of just spouting talking points. He's not a shouter. I'd prefer his show anyday over Hardball.

6. Why do they keep trying to use racism? |
|
It was a bizarre suggestion for Alito, only alittle less so for Condi and Gonzalez and Janice Brown. They want desperately to paint us as racists so they can get the minority vote. How stupid to they think the average member of a minority is, anyway?

Actually he wrote a nice article about how RFK was his politcal hero, he is personally, to conservative for me and the whole thing with his staffer getting killed and such bothers me. BUT I happened to meet him when i went to Biloxi to help out after Kartina (I lived there for a year about 20 years ago), I didnt recognize him until we were talking (we were unloading a truck)and we talked about the usual stuff why i was there, blah blah, and he just looked overwhelmed and like he was on the verge of being ready to cry at any moment. All i told him (his wife was there to) was that I came because I knew in this country someone would come for us if we were in trouble. There's a point, (like the TV pictures of DOGS and cops beating Civil Rights protesters) that the country knows somethings wrong. Those were his people in Biloxi, white, southern, chrstian, conservatives, and they were living in the street, on porches and no body was there. The president likes to pretend he is one of those types, but he abandoned them down there. And since then Joe has had that in the back of his mind. He's a big boy and a part of me says "thats what you get for voting for bush". But looking at him that day, I knew his heart was breaking and he felt betrayed. I try to say at least one good thing a year about a conservative, so there it is.

On his program, earlier. They've changed regarding terrorism. Oh, baby! Let me hold my side. Sean doesn't even have the common sense to bail out on the administration. At least Joe can hold his ass with both hands.

25. That's no escape for him |

How can he let a deal like this go down and he not know it? Even if he didn't know it, that will be the perception ... how could he not know. And while we're at it, how could rummy, who is suppose to be one of the dudes that investiagted it, not know about it either?
Incompetence is what it is, not ignorance.
