WTF? Is this Bizarro World? Headline: "Scarborough Lashes Out at Conservative Radio"
Yesterday, he penned an opinion column in the Pensacola News Journal that was VERY VERY complimentary of Ted Kennedy and VERY VERY negative toward the Bush family:

Today, he is slamming Conservative Radio for jumping on Obama for addressing school kids:

What has gotten in to this guy lately? Has he grown a conscience?

Maybe his parallel universe self is the complete opposite of the douche bag we're all familiar with.

3. I'm thinking he's more
manipulative than reasonable. He wants to present himself as "different from Bush"/"almost a libertarian", though anyone who has watched him over the years knows better. It's like how he pretended to be pro-Obama/anti-Hillary and then turned pro-Hillary towards the middle/end of the primaries. Just to stir shit up.

4. Guess he's not interested in running for president
That kind of talk would make him damaged goods in Iowa and South Carolina.

5. TPTB forgot his monthly quota of hookers and blow? Or maybe lapfog's right - dead intern haunting.
