Stone the crows. Just saw Scarborough rip Cheney up one side...

[WilliamPitt]

...and down the other. Discussing the theory that Cheney was drunk, and said we have to have this discussion because of the delay in reporting the incident. He basically jumped up and down on him.

Scarborough. I think I took too much cold medicine. That couldn't have happened.

[MrSlayer]

1. Coming from him, it's a real shock.

He's usually nothing more than a shill and apologist for the Neo-Cons.

[Beetwasher]

2. Amazing. I've Got To Hand It To You

To actually subject yourself to that fuckwad is more than I can bare. But I guess it comes w/ your territory, and I guess occasionally, like tonight, you catch a gem.

[TomInTib]

13. He was romping. Probably hopes that if he keeps it up....

no one will look into his past, uhhh, "problem".

[WilliamPitt]

31. Total accident

I was flipping through the channels and saw Franken on with Capt. Pinhead. Stopped long enough to hear that.

[Sydnie]

3. He was reacting like that during Katrina as well

I didn't see it, but I think it could have happened. Maybe he is trying to slam the scandal as "not the way a republican should act"? :shrug:

[LittleClarkie]

4. Every once in a blue moon...

He ripped the adiministration a new one over Katrina as well.

I think he might be a paleo-conservative instead of a neo.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

5. I Haven't Seen Honest Logic From Him Like That Since Early Katrina.

[deadparrot]

6. Wasn't Scarborough pissed after Katrina, also?

I remember there was one fairly recent news event where I was surprised that he'd stopped shilling.

[LincolnMcGrath]

7. Stone the crows

Was a cool song. (mid90s)

[Coexist]

8. Scarborough seems to have joined the "I'm a traditional Republican,

but not a neocon" crowd that is jumping off that sinking ship.

[Infomaniac]

9. Scarborough?

Yikes! So out of character for him. I'm tempted to call the cops to pay a visit to his house and see if there are any alien pods in his basement. What could have gotten into him? He's making sense.

[w8liftinglady]

10. did we capture the screen shot?...this IS msnbc,after all

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

11. Trying to retain street cred.

Jump on him over a no-brainer.

Let him skip on much weightier matters.

Page 3, graph 1, of the playbook.

[jobycom]

20. Yes, my thoughts, too. nt

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

22. Although, in retrospect...

SHOOTING A MAN IN THE FACE! is pretty weighty.

[jobycom]

25. Weighty, but as you said, a no-brainer.

It's easy to blast Cheney for that, then later use it to show how objective you are. Even Repubs think Cheney's delay was stupid, and nothing much will come of it, unless Whittington either dies (and I hope he doesn't) or tells a greatly different story than Cheney.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

29. Did I mention that Cheney was out with a woman other than his wife?

Page 1, graph 1 (revised edition, 1998)

[jobycom]

32. Good thing she wasn't found dead in his Florida office.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

35. Damn straight!

Or he'd have his own TV show!

:scared:

[tabasco]

33. Exactly right. A veneer of credibility.

Even Pravda had to tell the truth from time to time.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

36. Yep.

The Sun rose at 5:36 a.m.
There's a 30% chance of snow today.
Stalin didn't kill 30 million Russians.
The Sun will set at 6:21 p.m.

[stepnw1f]

12. Nope.... Just the Lesser of Two Evils

Excellent distraction from the authorization of the "Outing of Valerie Wilson's Identity".

[linazelle]

15. We posted the same thing, same time. Great minds? nt

[Emit]

19. Exact same time -- LOL! n/t

[linazelle]

14. It would be nice to hear if I weren't so cynical--I believe they are now

using this story as the lesser of two (three? four?) evils.

While Scarborho rants about the shooting, we hear nothing about the Katrina tapes, the Libby revelations or the other crimes they are committing "while the sun shines."

[swag]

16. If Joe can keep down a bottle of Cherry Goodness, he gets a Heston Badge

CAUSE HE'S A MAN, GODDAMMIT!

[kster]

17. Cheney shooting story ain't going no

where they can talk about it forever and it isn't going to do Cheney any more or less harm, it seems they are going to rough Cheney up on the shooting, so that they can avoid the treason story. Every person who hunts DRINKS. Thats why this story will never get legs.

[Klukie]

28. Yeah I agree but...

I think he embarrassed the shit out of his gun toting, NRA card carrying base and these bubbas don't take embarrassment lightly.

[oasis]

18. He followed Al Franken's lead about Cheney's possible drunkeness.

Al said Cheney should have gone to the hospital with the wounded guy. Since he did not, it makes one wonder if he was drunk.

[drbtg1]

21. He also was somewhat critical of Carlson...

...after Carlson's asinine comment the other night about since this was on private property and no charges are filed, then why bother.

Also, maybe it's me, but it seemed that Mr. Franken's compliment (?) of Scarborough's show, and that he should watch it more often, possibly seemed to disarm Scarborough and perhaps allow Mr. Franken more time to talk without interuption, which of course is verboten to allow liberals to do in mass media. Again, maybe it's me.

[Avalux]

23. I saw it too - it really happened. Amazing stuff.

And, he was yucking it up with Al Franken. Could not believe he was discussing Cheney being drunk. :wtf:

[FreedomAngel82]

24. Are you serious?

Scarborough???? :crazy:

[Maestro]

26. The end must really be near.

If the nutball is slamming him, I am afraid. The end is near.

[savemefromdumbya]

27. So it looks like they really are trying to clear the Cheney camp out

[Klukie]

30. Mabye Whittington took one for the team

[Geoff R. Casavant]

34. William, 32 Hearts!

A veritable liberal orgy!

Which reminds me of a joke, why doesn't the Junior League have orgies? Too much trouble writing all the thank-you notes!
