Scarborough on Limbaugh: Swing Voters Will See That and Think Republicans Have Gone Off the Deep End
It looks like Rush Limbaugh's glee over the United States losing the bid for the Olympics was even too much for Joe Scarborough to take.
Scarborough: I would like Rush Limbaugh to tell me Mike Barnicle...who's he helping there other than Rush Limbaugh? Because I would tell you middle Americans--Rush is smarter than that--middle Americans that swing elections see that and "Oh my god, Republicans have gone off the deep end."
I hate to tell you Joe but a lot of people I know realized the Republicans went off the deep end a long time ago. And Katrina Vanden Heuvel is exactly right. The Republicans would have attacked Obama no matter how this went down. If he hadn't gone, they'd have been saying the other heads of state went and he lost it for America. If he'd gone and the U.S. had gotten the bid, they'd be attacking Chicago for their dirty politics. You cannot win when dealing with these people who as Paul Krugman rightly pointed out that you were so dismissive of later in the segment... have "the emotional maturity of a bratty 13-year-old".
is what's presented as the rational voice of the right?
fuck this fuckin guy.
of that limbaugh gloating over this...
made my blood boil.
What an un-American POS.
all the republi****s goin to other countries and talk shit about Obama...these treasonous bastards are up to something.
that the State Department could revoke their passports???? Or would the State Department 'not have any reason to do so?'
My hubby thinks what they are doing is - if not treason - bordering on it.
But I think it's one of two things
They're either goin there to get pointers on a military coup...
or they're just being pricks and trying to undermine the president.
I would think both are crimes.
The IRI has been stationed there for years, since Noriegas time http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battalion_3-16_%... and Battalion 316 anyway.
They helped them with the coup at the very least
But I doubt these republicans know as much about it.
Nope. Natalie Maines (sp) said one thing in passing. The ProfitMedia jumped all over it.
DeMental and Bible Spice go abroad and denounce Obama and let me guess -
ProfitMedia ain't sayin' squat, am I right?
not a peep
Is it now ok to cheer if the USA doesn't bring home any medals?
Or is there a line drawn somewhere?
Good question!
someone should ask the GOP that!
Don't worry, most of the world knows that the neocons are full of shit.
All I want is the following candidate combination:
Palin, Limbaugh Limbaugh, Beck Palin, Beck Beck, Palin
Right up my alley!
I think most in the "middle" know darn well that the "Republicans Have Gone Off the Deep End" thanks in part to the insane BS Scarborough spews too.
As if Joe is some kind of moderate?
THAT starts the morning off with a chuckle
"I know that there are people who do not love their fellow
man, and I hate people like that! " ~ Tom Lehrer (1928 - )
Joe is just as crazy as the rest of them.
The bastards who cheered last week are forbidden from cheering for the USA during the Olympics. They must cheer for Brazil, UK, Spain, and Japan. If I see one of them cheering for us, I will remind them of what they did. Loudly.
Obviously the slugs will be cheering for ANY team against America.
It is their true nature.

Mickey: "It was an epiphany. Do you know what an epipany is?"
Keoni: "NOT NOW MICKEY!"
amen
The republicans just want change, like someone to change their dirty diapers.
Too late Joe, we have been watching the right side of the car going off the track for a long time now. Your pointing it out doesn't fix a damned thing.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
Can they stop being called "pro-America" now?
As far as Rush Limbaugh. The Patrick Swayze's of the world are dying at an early age while this fat gas bag of lies, hate and venom hasn't yet keeled over in rage induced heart attack. If there is a God, he has his priorities misplaced.

There either is no God, or there is and he hates my fucking guts.
I should have had far better luck in life - and Rush Limbaugh should have died an agonizing death decades ago.
unless the current congress, senate and executive do something to correct the problems with elections.
Time is running out.
That's twice in one month.
No..... wait, it's a new month.
Doesn't change the fact that he's a pompous ass.
He's actually coming off as more liberally minded that Nikita.

What is your conceptual, continuity?
the worse his ratings get.
Red Eye at 3AM gets more viewers total and Demo than Morning Joe.
Red Eye Resurgence: More Demo Viewers Watch Fox At 3am Than CNN at 8pm
Go figure.
dennis that red eye is a horrible show. it is hardly journalistic nor a coherent discussion of the topics.
That's pretty sad it has decent ratings. probably a young audience too since I doubt middle aged and elders can handle red eye's mentality
since the meth bust in Mexico.
So the almighty ratings trump the truth.
Spoken like a true whore.
All these viewer ratings say is that the right watches more tv. That's all. And we all know what the tv is.
I'd luv to sit and chat with you dennis. But I have to go pay taxes. Someone has to do it. I really don't mind paying my taxes.
I still think America is worth it.

is leftist?!? Uh-huh.
I've been saying for some time now that rush is a secret democrat
I believe the man flipped to the democrats right at the end of the Reagan administration
Think about it, each and every thing he says and does has been effective at turning more and more Americans from the republican party into the waiting arms of the democrats
And here's the thing;
No matter how damaging a claim he makes on behalf of the republicans, they shiver at the spine and agree rather then disagree, even though they know as a fact agreeing will alienate more and more Americans, as they watch former republicans leave the party in droves.
I have concluded, no man could be such a moron as to think his actions are beneficial to the republicans, he has to be a double agent charged with increasing the roles of democrats
There, I let the trick out of the bag
... I don't want him on my side. He's intellectually dishonest, a reprehensible racist thug with a microphone.
I'd sooner have Judas Iscariot as a character witness.
He may claim that at some point, in some craven attempt to gain a new audience, but such dishonest techniques mark him as a republican no matter what. We reject him.
That's just as ridiculous, if not more so, than that post yesterday that we should DEFEND beck!
..wait a minute, a pig just flew past my window!
Mickey: "It was an epiphany. Do you know what an epipany is?"
Keoni: "NOT NOW MICKEY!"
... a reputation for shilling for the GOP doesn't convince me that you're oh-so-shocked at Limbaugh 'going too far.'
This is, sad to say, the media narrative wherein idiots like Limbaugh are preserved as having validity and equivalence, and nothing more than cheesy opportunism.
Y'all wanted him, cheered him on, and now his fat arse is associated with you whether you want him or not. That brown stain on your schnozz doesn't come off, folks.
for higher ratings from his more liberal MSNBC audience. But I for one will NEVER watch him and his symbiotic, idiotic co-host again. They are a sadistic-masochistic pair that make me ill!
Republicans hate for Obama is only slightly more than their hate for America.
"When are we going to stop trying to tell elected officials what to do. Our job is to spend the taxpayers' money the best way we can." -- Tommy Watkins, Justice of the Peace, Crawford County, Arkansas
I heard a little while ago that the US has been voted the most admired nation, up from number seven last year. All the credit for the rise in popularity is due to the election of President Obama. Another wart on the asses of the right for them to bitch about. The whole world gets it, but the right wing in the US doesn't.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
It sure is heartwarming to watch Joe Schmoe get all whiny about the GOP-but hey he helped shape the party by building his career in FLA bashing Clinton. It's your party, pal. PS could Rush be any more openly racist these days?
you can talk all you want Joe, Rush can't hear you...remember, all the drugs killed his hearing
That's the only time republicans will be accused of being deep.

Considering Lindsay Graham threw Beck under the Republican Party bus and now Scarborough has just rolled the bus tires over Limbaugh's fat ass, I seriously think we are going to have to get a new fleet of Republican buses, there has to be serious underframe damage after bumping over Limbaugh's leviathan carcass....(snark)
Democratic Party progressive, Vietnam veteran and proud Union member for 41 years
and the one-hitter...
I'm a swing voter when I see the ineffectualness of Dems (who have a f__king mandate!) But the GOP in general lost me a decade ago. They are desperate scapegoating degenerates with no ideas, and an anti-intelligence platform.
Still... if Obama keeps leading like a complete p__sy, I'll happily vote against him.
I'snt that politispeak, for "I'll vote for whoever preserves my white priviledge"?
..seriously, WHAT?
Mickey: "It was an epiphany. Do you know what an epipany is?"
Keoni: "NOT NOW MICKEY!"
Limp-Dick Blimpaugh's sheep absolutely hate America and especially our troops, so what do you expect from these racist, uneducated, assholes???
The Republicans HAVE gone off the deep end. They don't give a damn about this country. They care about two things, money and power and that's it.
This phenomena is by no means limited to the Republican party of course as opensecrets.org reveals. But given how far the Republican party has gone in order to undermine the best interests of Americans, the institutions of government, the law, and the constitution I think I'm safe in saying that they have elevated 'going off the deep end' to an art form.
I don't like the Democrats. I think they're a bunch of miserable ineffectual pantywaists that do not deserve to occupy the halls of power if only for sitting idly by while Bush gutted the Constitution unopposed. But there's no way a perennial Presidential candidate like Nader's going to get in there. So we're left with the usual choices of Democrat vs Republican. Coward vs Criminal.
What we need is a strong, charismatic third choice (and no I don't mean Ron Paul).
is what you're looking for, perhaps you should move to Italy.
Where there's any number of choices. THIS country is built on a TWO party system.
What else would you expect from the poster blimp of the racist redneck right?
And Scarborough's lip service to sensibility only makes him look more of a clown....
after all....he's from Florida.
There was that little issue of his female aide being found DEAD in his office, under mysterious circumstances!!!!! Something was extremely "FISHY" in Florida, and then Joey Boy ran away!!!
But plunged into the abyss in 2003 when they let their cowardice over come there good sense. Look around the room see the person in the corner with his fingers flipping his lips while he makes noises.
republicanism is a mental illness!
even a stopped clock gives the right time twice a day.
go in the shallow end head first from a high diving board!
In fact I would pay to see that!
the suggestions that the President should have tossed support over to Rio in the spirit of goodwill. The howls from the RW f-tards would be that the President doesn't support America.
As far as Rash Lardball is concerned, I would imagine he will call for the US to boycott the Olympics since we weren't selected and his drooling fans will howl and beat their chests (in perfect imitation of howler monkeys) for that.
I dislike Scarborough as much as I do Limbaugh. Another thing, If I were his wife, I'd whip Mika's ass.
of the young woman found dead in Joe's office? Why has this information been supressed?
maybe these repubes have girlfriends in brazil!?
now they have an excuss to visit, suport our athletes
