Joe Scarborough

As of Monday at 6AM Moaning Joe Scarborough is irrelevant as his TV audience will be usurped (mostly) by Imus on the Fox Business Channel. And his radio show is not doing very well except in a couple cities.

I, for one, am glad that this anti-conservative "conservative" is on the decline. He has not done the movement one bit of good.

The White HOuse is engaged in penny ante responces to media pundits?

The White House needs to STFU amd get the job done.

Or vacate the place to let someone in who can.

I so hope Beck takes down Valerie Jarrett, she is a danger to America. She is seditious and should be exiled. She hates America as it is and wants to change it into a Daley-style dictatorship controlled machine - she was Daley’s enforcer and is a close friend of Bill Ayers the murderer bomber.

Beck has managed to fully expose what the White House thought would be a stealth program, i.e., the gang of czars, and the Obamanoids are shaking with fury as a result.

That being said, Beck should double and triple-check his facts before airing material on administration radicalism and corruption because one small slip will be blasted all over the SRM as dishonest journalism and there will soon be a “Beck lies” mantra current among libtards just as “Bush lied” was a popular rant a few years ago.

Ah the Truth can never stand the light of day...And when this WH gets hit with the truth, it relies on smears and fellow travelers to discredit their detractors...

We can see through the smears and shame on those who are doing the smearing...There is still a Constitution in this country and people have a right to speak out,even or especially Glenn Beck and Fox News.

So Go Glenn Go...

RE :”So, what side of this will Beck-bashers Mark Levin and Joe Scarborough come down on?”

Both of those two A-holes have been on my list for a while, even though they have different motives .Neo-con Levin is tied to GWB and licked McCain’s boots last fall, even though he was not a McCain supporter. He was a McCain or Die-er ;ast fall and a republican first, no matter what he says now.

” But I suspect that question was rhetorical. “

It was indeed.

Glenn Beck may be something of a loose cannon, but he’s been doing real damage to the Obama crime family while these other clowns haven’t done squat.

Let’s see Levin, Scarborough, and the rest of the house-broken Republicans do something like taking down ACORN. Until then, they can STFU when it comes to advising the rest of us on what is or isn’t the right way to oppose Obama.

At this point, he can read a teleprompter.

"Read" is the operative word. Other presidents used this device to "prompt" them as they gave a speech that they had helped write and practiced. Zero seems to be unfamiliar with the text and can't remember more than a few words between head-flapping side-glancing reads.

It worked years ago when they made Newt the “evil” embodiment of nasty-and-mean-spirited-conservatism. It worked when they did the same to Ken Starr. Today though, they are going after Sarah ... and Rush ... and Beck ... and so many others that the Obama propaganda machine is doomed to fail. I love it!

Obama should just go on the Glenn Beck show to clear things up.

It wasn’t one-time and Levin wasn’t jesting.

Newt and Starr were in visible positions of power to be demonized. Republicans are completely out of power, including Beck and Palin. They couldnt nail anyone in 1993 or 1994 either.

The McCain or die-ers last fall missed this obvious result of McCain losing. They predicted the end of the world instead.

Well I enjoyed listening to Scarborough’s radio show out here in LA for the brief time that it was on. Scarborough has some good guests and his repartee with Mika Brzezinski is pretty amusing.

On the other hand I find Joe to be more Republican than conservative, even though Joe did criticize Bush for Bush’s passable imitation of LBJ. And when bashing Beck, Joe cited David Frum as an authority on “conservatism”, proving that Scarborough can be an idiot who doesn’t know the difference between “opportunism” and conservatism.

>>I’ll have to pay closer attention to Mark Levin because I haven’t heard him speak poorly of Glenn Beck on his show<<

He calls Beck the 5pm-er.
Talks about him a lot.

Personally I love Beck and Levin so I ignore it.

How long ago was that? I ask because I felt that he started "going native" over at MSNBC about the time his book came out. It was as though he started playing both sides to increase book sales (just my own theory.)

In any event I've watched him since Morning Joe started and he has turned nasty towards true conservatives. He espouses some basically conservative values now and then but whenever a real, live conservative actually says or does something conservative he comes down on them in no uncertain terms.

It's like he can tolerate theoretical, non-threatening conservative principles but cannot tolerate any real conservatives that actually fight for those principles. And he just keeps getting worse. He ridicules Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin and tells conservatives that they are ruining the GOP.

Buh-bye Joe. Give my luv to Mika.

Joe Scarborough is a different story. He sucks up to democrats to show all the liberals watching MSNBC he is fair. I like jumping on republicans for the right reasons(Beck is not Republican) . Beck on FNC is a market competitor to the morning Joe so him and that idiot Meeka supporting political boycotts of Beck is unethical.

Calling FNC on facts is ethical and vice versus is ethical,

I’ve never seen Morning Joe, my only exposure was to the two hours of radio that KABC was carrying. And that wasn’t for all that long. Probably six months or so.

I think that you’re right that something changed about the time that his book came out. I thought I noticed a certain squishiness begin to show, an attempt to plant one foot firmly on both sides of the fence.
