Curious? No Joe Scab to discuss head injury
I wonder why he didn't want to participate in the discussion of Natasha Richardson's head injury? Anyone have an ideas?

1. Sure do have an idea !
Edited on Wed Mar-18-09 07:58 AM by goclark
Why do they have this man on television?

Of all the 4/6 "intellligent conservatives" if this is the best they can do it is shameful.

I will not watch Joe and his girlfriend Mika, the only way I find out about him is through DU.

3. I'm sure it's NOT because
of the brain injury that killed the intern in his office, who he was boffing all the time that he and the media were crucifying Gary Condit and exploiting Chandra Levy.

4. His knowledge of intern-al medical problems only applies to office workers.

5. Much as I hate Scarborough,
I hate the Internet intern-rumors more.

8. Was she an intern? No.
Was Joe Scarborough within 1000 miles when it happened? No.
Do people die of accidental head injuries all the time? Clearly, yes.

People don't even know the basics of the story - like constantly calling the woman an "intern" when she was an adult office worker. There's absolutely no evidence of anything & people just use it as a way to slam & slander Scarborough. When, let's face it, there's plenty of *real* reasons to slam Joe Scarborough.

9. Yeah. there was nothing suspicious in the least about Scumborough's "office worker"..
Edited on Wed Mar-18-09 09:04 AM by truebrit71
...problem...

The basics of the story? A republican congressman was boinking an "office worker" when she mysteriously died and he abruptly resigned to "spend time with his family" and the media didn't bat an eyelid...At roughly the same time a Democratic congressman was boinking an "office worker" who mysteriously disappeared and he was hounded out of office by the media...

Did I miss anything?

BTW are interns not also adult office workers? Are you suggesting that Levy was a minor? I am confused about your paper-thin distinction here....

11. To be fair
Scarborogh announced that he was going to leave Congress several months before when his son was diagnosed with diabetes.

12. OMG
I don't even know where to begin on that one. Count the assumptions in your post - where's the evidence he was "boinking" the office worker? None. Where's the evidence of a connection between this person's death & Scarborough's resignation? None. What's the connection to Gary Condit? None. Is a 25-35 year old aide the same thing as a college intern? No. I am confused by your logic. Does your post actually gives evidence of anything to implicate Scarborough in this woman's death? No.

13. You are absolutely right! There was NOTHING suspicious AT ALL about the "office worker's" death..
Edited on Wed Mar-18-09 09:43 AM by truebrit71
I am SUCH an idiot for thinking anything other than the fact that Joe Scarborough is completely innocent and all of the highly suspect events and occurrences surrounding her death are just a bunch of coincidences....:eyes:

Thank you for bringing that level of clarity to my otherwise bitter and cynical existence...


The Easter Bunny is real too, right?

14. You are right. People are happily jumping on...
any unfounded, irrational lies and scandalmongering just because they hate Scarborough.

The medical examiner mess didn't help clear things up, but there's no evidence he was involved with her and there's even less evidence he had anything to do with her death.

Scarborough is an asshole, but my answer to that is I simply don't watch him-- along with a few hundred million other people who who don't watch him.

(I am convinced his audience is mainly the whinier Democrats and liberals who can't find anything better to do than look for things to complain about.)

16. It amazes me
Edited on Wed Mar-18-09 02:04 PM by Marie26
how many DU threads are about "Morning Joe." If it sucks, don't watch it! Probably his audience is mostly Dems who want something to complain about - a lot of Limbaugh's audience is Dems too. Of course, I watch Lou Dobbs to whine & complain about *him*, so I guess everyone's got a weakness.
