Scarborough the scumbag has jumped the shark
Edited on Fri Mar-28-08 07:58 AM by u2spirit
I was bored with Washington journal and flipped it to MSNBC. Joey the intern killer had McSame's adviser on and now even Joey the intern killer says it's possible Iran is helping Al Quaeda. His reasoning is the old "enemy of my enemy is my friend." McSames adviser wouldn't even go there. Joey the intern killer went from partisan dickhead when he got to the network to a more modest voice about 4 years ago. I remember him scorching bush during the Kerry debates and even taking the repuke congress to task. Then mission accomplished. Joey the intern killer caught a break when Imus was canned. Joey the intern killer got his big morning show and now that he has gotten what he wanted, he is back to being a partisan dickhead. He won't let go of Wright, he talks well of Clinton with a machiavellian twinkle in his eye, he backtalks and threatens his co host, he even pushes blatantly false meme's about Iran. His racism, sexism and thuggish behavior should earn him a ticket to nowhere, but now that he's entrenched he'll be a fixture until his retirement or until he's arrested for killing his intern. Joey the intern killer figures if O'liely and Rushbo can make a million by being a dickhead, he's entitled as well.

2. I was more than aware
My point is that he softened his image as a partisan so he could get a premium gig.

4. Joe was on the wrong side of the shark to begin with
He hasn't jumped it, he's always been a tool to it.

6. What are his ratings like since he moved to the AM? I can't believe
it's not better to have a PM show when most people are home! I watced his PM show once in a while, and at least sometimes he was rational. I think I tuned in to the AM show once and wasn't impressed. Never went back again.

11. It isn't as lame as the Imus show was
but it isn't much better either.

The ratings for this show are always pretty sorry because they broadcast it live on the west coast which means it starts at 3 am when practically no one is up.

10. I did, too...
there is no evidence at all to support that notion. The poor girl's family doesn't believe he killed her either. No charges were filed against him.

9. You know, I don't care for Scarborough...
and I couldn't even get through your comments because of the 'Joey the intern killer' at every turn. Yes, we get it...you think he killed his intern despite the fact that no one else, including the girl's family, thinks he did.

14. It was hyperbole
I probably went too far. There are plenty of real things to bash him on.

15. It's just that I don't care for those kinds of groundless accusations...
I agree there is plenty to bash him on and is always fun to do. :)

13. I think I would approach part of what you're saying differently -
The death of the female may not be concluded, but a person is innocent until proven guilty. And I wonder what you or your spouse would do if it was your daughter and there was constant talk on blogs about 'the intern' being murdered. We are not alone when we strike out.

This man is a 100% Republican working for a multi-billion Republican propaganda machine. There is plenty of other ammunition to hit on him with. His cockiness and attempts at superiority to start with.
