How often and how long is Joe Scarborough going to harp on the fact
that "so many people" are "coming up to me" and asking "the same thing I'm asking. Why didn't he just leave that church?"

Alright, alright, Joe - we get it! The people who are wondering this - as measured by the 15 people who run up to you on the street to say this to you - aren't going to vote for Obama.

Now, can you talk about something else?

Jeez!

I know this isn't a particularly profound OP - but I just had to get that off of my chest.

1. As long as he can get away with it.
Clinton didn't help, but that was her exact motivation yesterday. She knows people like this guy will discuss it ad nauseum.

16. The real question is: Hillary - how low can she go?

2. Joe - what happened to your secretary?
That's what I would like to know.

13. Hmmm, why does NOBODY ask that question at MSBNC?
I wonder when Lori's family will finally see justice served?

We all want to know.

3. I feel bad for the people who belong to this church. They're being
portrayed as evil, anti-American bigots. Very unfair. I wish someone would start playing all the other parts of the sermons instead of a few inflammatory snippets.

4. It's beginning to sound like
he is a member of the Clinton campaign. I wonder if he is being paid to say this over and over? Mika is getting sick of it too, by her comments. JMO. :eyes:

11. Joe just said for at least the second time today she's "built Ford tough."
No, he's not being paid, but surely the Republican party (and the Clintons) are ever delighted and grateful for his daily hyping of Hillary Clinton and concurrent disparagement of Barack Obama. Joe is so transparent and without any shred of journalistic integrity.

5. Joe is a GOPer. Hillary is their gal.
they know she cannot and willnot win this election if she's our nominee. So he spends all of his time tearing down Obama and trying to build up Hill.

6. I had to stop watching him - and wrote msnbc about both Joe and Pat Buchanan...

Hopefully more and more people will do that, and those vile creeps will be sent packing!

7. I wish more of these pundits would play a better sampling of
the sermons given there on any Sunday. Maybe they'd start to understand why he stayed.

For that matter, we could go back to the stupid questions about why Clinton stayed married to Bill.

None of our business, in either case. We're not electing Rev. Wright. We're electing Obama, and his opinions are well known.

8. Obama should have found a black church where nobody has ever suffered because of their race
and all the sermons are technical exercises in theology.

(Shut up, Joe.)

9. Why didn't get up and leave the GOP over Bush?
Edited on Wed Mar-26-08 07:46 AM by Bad Thoughts
He's positioned himself so much as a critic of the administration's inept policies since 2004, yet he still calls himself a republican.

12. how many people still remember Scarborough/dead intern incident?
Medical Examiner Who Did the Autopsy on Joe Scarborough's Dead Aide Dismissed
10-Jul-03
Joe Scarborough
From AllHatNoCattle.com: "'The Okaloosa/Walton medical examiner will be out of the job he's held the last six years. Dr. Michael Berkland has been dismissed by the Medical Examiner's Office in Pensacola. The Florida Medical Examiner's Commission had complained of his failure to complete dozens of autopsy reports in 2001 and 2002, a violation of state statutes' ... Did the Coroner who will replace dismissed coroner break campaign donation laws? Dr. Gary Cumberland and spouse possibly gave more than the legal $1000 limit to Joe Scarborough... Dr. Cumberland is replacing the recently dismissed medical examiner, Dr. Michael Berkland who preformed the autopsy on Lori Klausutis, the dead aide found in Joe Scarborough's office."

15. Hi Effie!
Every single day I send emails to Scarborough, and his cult
begging them to get a brain transplant and to get back to the issues.

I dread our coming election, no matter the candidate
with creeps like that filling the airwaves
with tripe.

How do sexist bigots get tv shows?
