In the first half-hour of today's show, MSNBC Morning Joe host Joe Scarborough accused Fox News Channel and radio talk show host Glenn Beck of spreading hatred and whippping up raced-based assassination hysteria against Barack Obama, demanding Republicans renounce Beck.
Scarborough, a former conservative Republican congressman from Florida, attacked the libertarian Beck for spending the summer telling viewers there were FEMA detention camps being built and for saying that Obama hates "all white people."
Scarborough said the "hatred" Beck is spreading would make him responsible should Obama be assassinated. Though he didn't speak explicitly of Obama's assassination, it was clear what Scarborough meant.
Scarborough demanded that potential Republican presidential candidates denounce Beck, naming Mitt Romney in particular.
HE LIES!
1. Beck repeatedly called for peaceful protests.
2. Beck specifically DEBUNKED the FEMA camp urban legend, sending out reporters to supposed ‘sites’.
Scarborough is disgusting.
Since the ‘right wing extremist’, ‘teabagger’, ‘Nazi’, ‘Racist’ memes aren’t flying, I guess this is the next attempt.
Listen Joe, there is a huge percentage of the population who will NOT go gently into the night.
perhaps Scarborough is trying to make himself more “RINOy” to appeal to the clueless GOP leadership.
perhaps joe got the word the “vote scarborough” trial baloon worked like a lead baloon.
Joe is following Obama’s lead and being a crybaby like Obama.
Joe who?
MSNBC represents a tiny percentage of GE's revenue. GE can afford to keep it around as the propaganda arm of the Obama administration as long as Obama plays nice with GE.
Meanwhile in the News Corp Annual Report, News Corp experienced a net operating loss of $3.4B on revenues of $30B in 2009.
Really? Who knew???
The way the election system is set up, this would guarantee Dem victories for the foreseeable future. We don't need to have a new party, we need to gain control of the existing Republican party.
First step, rather than a third party, there needs to be one or more organizations, independent of the RNC, which can identify, nurture, and finance conservative candidates in the primaries. We would donate time and money to these organizations rather than the RNC.
Once the RINOs are driven out, by losing in the primaries, THEN conservatives will have a chance to take control of the RNC.
Scarborough and Bryzwhatever were not only insulting Prejean, but the “Christians” and “Values” people ... every statement was followed by a mocking “Amen.” It was absolutely gross.
I found it particularly ironic since Bryzwhatever’s father over the weekend had been quoted as saying that IF Israel were to attack Iran, flying over Iraq, the US would have to send up our war planes to take down the Israelis who’d be flying over “our” airspace. Why didn’t they mock that?
Beck’s rating are getting to him huh? Shut up Joe, you are irrelevant.
What planet does Joe live on? Obama assassination hysteria? Sheesh.
Only 357k watch his show?
You got it right Sistyelder.
Scarborough? Who is this? Did he play with Simon and Garfunkle?
Are you thinking of Gary Condit?
Wow, well apparently good ole Joe has a few skeletons in his closet. He has to be a RINO to even appear on MSNBC, no one else would take the job.
I’m lucky that we in the Mtro NY area now get Glenn Beck on WOR(710 AM) from 9 am to noon. I switched over from IMUS on WABC (770 AM) to John Gambling on WOR several weeks after Imus started. I did the same to Joe and eekee as soon as Beck got his time slot on WOR. It saves the morning station shift and gets me better programming. We can also get 970 AM which offers conservative hosts. Isn’t competition magnificent?
Oops! here’s that “e” from Mtro
Hey Joe, When you lie down with dogs...
How do these RINO’s look themselves in the mirror in the morning is beyond me.
It's hyperbole and it will likely backfire. People tend to get offended when they are accused of being racists.
