Scarborough Says 'Judge Not' . . . Then Calls Kyl And DeMint 'Un-Christlike'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 12/16/2010 4:12:31 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Mere moments after citing Matthew 7's instruction to "judge not, that ye be not judged," Joe Scarborough declared that Jon Kyl and Jim DeMint were "un-Christlike."

Scarborough's strange self-contradiction came in the course of his diatribe against the two Republican senators for having criticized Harry Reid for threatening to keep the Senate in session through Christmas.

We won the election and we are under seige with a lame duck congress. THe Democrats have played this top notch. Joe is an ass. Who side is he on, Oh I forgot the “centers” side.

After I call senators and reps. today and give them a piece of my mind. I need to walk away. I cant believe what I am watching here the last 3 weeks of a congress that has been voted out and are voting for the tax plan, DADT and START and call me crazy but another OMINBUS bill.

Hug your children and pray.

Now Mark, let's be honest. No one watches this debacle. If a Conservative man happens to surf through and sees Mika's breasts for 10 seconds, he's satisfied and moves on to NGHD to watch a lion eat a gazelle. Sure we like a good rack! We eat rare steak, hunt, and love contact sports like hot sex. Did I mention nice breasts? Those too. I mean we'd never,....I mean none of us would actually touch her with a 10ft pole, but a I mean a tight blouse deserves a quick scan don't you think?

Scab-Burrow is a dunce.

There is no necessary contradiction here. Admonishment and discernment are not the type of judgment referenced in Mat 7:1. I'm not defending Scarborough (I didn't see the events referenced) just saying on its face the criticism is unwarranted. Amazing how many of the people who cite this verse have never read the chapter which contains it, nor the rest of the Gospels so as to be able to understand it.

Then Calls Kyl And DeMint 'Un-Christlike

I wouldn't call Kyl and DeMint 'un-christlike'. I think 'stupid' sums it up better. We have hundreds of thousands of troops overseas during the holidays, police and fire and medical people in the U.S. that will be working over the holidays, and for asses like Kyl and DeMint to whine about maybe having to work next week and claiming that having to do so is 'disrespecting Christmas' is completely asinine.

This guy is so contradictory over all, that I wonder that anybody watches him at all. We give some of these kooks too much air-time.

Sorry, but comparing our troops, police and fire, who have to work for our protection, to the congress staying in session because Harry Reid is being is usually nasty, arrogant and childish self, is just stupid. I’m sure you know that, but as usual, can’t help yourself from defending Harry Reid.

I’m sure it’s made Kyl and DeMint’s day that you wouldn’t call then “un-christlike”.

They don’t call the biased organization MS-DNC, for nothing.

Slow Joe wouldn’t recognize a contradiction if it was sitting on Mika’s ample womanhood...

Pointing out that Reid and the democrats had all year, but now wait in a “lame duck session” to shove all theses Bills down the Americans’ throats without proper debate is whining? Do you not see how disingenuous Reid and the dems are? Supporting Reid's “games”, how “collectivist” of you.

Quite a few, and normally I have a tremendous amount of respect for DeMint. I've said so on other threads. But this was a stupid answer which makes them look like blubbering babies, and when our leadership does something this asinine then it's right to call them on it.

I don’t believe you. Every single post I’ve ever seen from you has been in support of raving liberals, and/or attacking conservatives. Can you show me one post where you supported conservatives or conservative values, or you opposed liberals or liberal doctrine? Just one?

From the video... "... Harry Reid a DEVOUT Christian..."

That's a good one!! If he were tried in court for that charge he would be found not guilty for lack of evidence!

Matthew 7's instruction to "judge not, that ye be not judged

Perhaps the most often quoted, Misapplied, misunderstood, taken out of context passage in the entire Bible.
