Morning Joe: Unfair to Critique Beto at 16...or Warren at 36!
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 03/18/2019 9:36:28 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Back when Brett Kavanaugh was in the hot seat, Mike Barnicle demanded that Kavanaugh's accusers be believed, claiming they would have to be "totally mentally ill" to lie. But now that the person in question is a potential Dem presidential nominee. Barnicle has predictably changed his tune.

On today's Morning Joe, the subject was Beto O'Rourke's recently-revealed writing in which he fantasized about intentionally killing two children with his car. Note that in contrast with the Kavanaugh case, in which the nominee passionately denied engaging in the alleged behavior, O'Rourke admits having written the murder fantasy in question. Even so, Barnicle rose ardently to O'Rourke's defense, literally laughing off the ghoulish fantasy. Barnicle claimed that because "the nation is in peril," the media should ignore what candidates did in their youth, and focus on what they are proposing for the future.

Joe Scarborough took things a shocking step further, saying of Elizabeth Warren's phony claim to be an American Indian, "I don't really care what you signed on your application 35 years ago to get into the Texas bar." Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

Clueless Barnicle seemed unaware of Beto murder fantasy, then laughs it off. Scarborough says he doesn’t care about Fauxcohantas, at age 36 and a law prof, lying about being an Indian.

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

But it was perfectly ok to smear Justice Kavavaugh for untrue allegations from when he was 16. Ok. Got it.

I’m just amazed someone in D.C. may be able to erase their emails without using a hammer.

Scarborough was only 37 when he possibly murdered an intern. Youthful indiscretion.

So murdering Joe, I guess it was NOT OK to critique Brett Kavanaugh’s high school yearbook when he was 15 years old and wrote fart jokes am I right Joe..or does this new critique thing only apply to Commie leftists

Okay, creepy, but I agree re: the fiction writing of a 15yo kid.

The fraud of Lizzy, etc., shouldn’t be given a pass at all.

high divers have jumped up in the air, come down and smacked their heads on the diving boards and not died after dropping a good 3-4 feet onto the board full force-

"Scarborough was only 37 when he possibly murdered an intern. Youthful indiscretion."

He and John Kasich had just been identified as two of the Gary Condit sex buddies identified during the Chandra Levy murder investigation when this death occurred.

Before I retired, I used to bang my head on my desk almost daily due to really stupid people asking me really stupid questions. It never hurt me, hurt me, hurt me.....
