MSNBC's Joe Scarborough Says Palin "Does Not Read Enough" to Attack ObamaCare - Video 8/18/09

Here is video of MSNBC's Joe Scarborough attacking Sarah Palin as "not capable" of taking apart the Democrats' Health Care Bill because "she does not read enough."

He also said that Republicans all over the country "behind closed doors" say that Sarah Palin "doesn't know what she's talking about." He was specifically complaining about Palin's past attacks on ObamaCare as containing "death panels," even though other Republicans like Sen. Charles Grassley have made similar arguments.

Scarborough seems to think he has to do things like this to keep favor with the radicals at NBC and MSNBC, who absolutely despise Sarah Palin. I'm sure there are some Republicans who feel that way about Palin, but I think there are many more who do not.

Scarborough also said he does not think Palin would do well in Iowa if she decideds to run for the GOP Nomination. . . . . (Watch Video)

Hey Joe, maybe someday you will get the guts to criticize Obama without have to mention “George W. Bush” first! Did MSNBC put that in your contract???

I read Sarah’s “Death Panel” response to BO’s mocking “town hall” show. She had it footnoted and very detailed.

Joe obviously didn’t read it—proving HE doesn’t read much.

I can tell you: a lot of these “news” people sit down and look at what another person has written...and have done very little research themselves.

Sometimes I think “news” people use “wikipedia” as an authority on a subject and end their “investigation” with that one source.

Early numbers...... LOL

Who was ahead and won Iowa in 2008? Remember? Try the name Huckabee by almost 3 to 1 over McCain.

News “people” audience is other news people.
They mostly aim at impressing each other ...

I used to think the same thing. Then I started watching his show (really was excited since the F & F twits annoy the fire out of me). But...alas, he’s a *moderate* not a conservative.

Joe works in a bad neighborhood so he's always making excuses for the punks presuming they'll beat down on him last.

He is as they used to say " a good German"

She read the bill. That’s more reading than most Senators and Congresspeople have done lately.

Ok, either she doesn’t read enough or she read too much of Obama care and ratted them out. Which is it? Don’t you just love fried rat smell in the mornings!

So Joe has bugs planted behind the closed doors of Republican’s Private places?

Forget Iowa for a second...I am not asking this with any hidden editorial opinion...I just want to hear folks’ thoughts.

Can Sarah Palin, given the fact that the electorate is as divided as it is now, win the presidency in 2012? If so, how? If not, then who can beat Obama?

"Joe obviously didn’t read it—proving HE doesn’t read much."

Joe is also a former U.S. Congressman. We all know by now that they don't read much either.
