Joe S is engaging in fear mongering regarding the deficit.
He just said that W took a record surplus (no mention that the surplus was an illusion brought on by the bubble economy) and turned it into record deficits.
He is unmistakably trying to drive done W's support with his base.
Now he has Buchanan on making the anti-Republican case too.
Scarborough is such a nut. One minute he praises reagan (who had larger deficits than Bush does) and then he lights into Bush.
This is insane. He is an incoherent jerk.
I feel the same way as you do. The one silver lining is that no one seems to want to watch his show.
Scarborough is now singing Clintoon's praises. He is speaking about the big spending but not mentioning 9-11, the Homeland Security bill and the federalization of the TSA.
This is insane.
He has a show?
Somebody has Joe Scarborough's number!
I saw that. He doesn't recall who cut spending in 1994? It wasn't Clinton. It was Newt's Congress. And it is from THAT point in 1994 (not 1992) that the deficit line went down.
Isn't there one federal welfare program we can cut? The farm support programs arte a disgrace, the energy department should be abolished, the department of commerce , education. All should be abolished.
Yeah, but what is he thinking. I do agree with them in one degree. Bush hasn't gotten any credit for his domestic spending. Now, 60 days out of a critical election, this is nothing more than pundit malpractice.
He is wondering why Health and Human services (vaccines), transportation (TSA), and State (WOT and to secure basing, etc., VOA, etc) budgets have increased. He doesn't give the whole story.
This is unreal. He is a real jerk.
These media 'conservatives'want to appear ópen minded'by attacking the conservatives.
If I want to see conservatives attacked (and lied about) I will watch Chris Matthews or some other liberal.
Yeah, I'm watching... and I can't believe it. Buchanan is actually suggested conservatives vote Republicans out of office this November and start over in '06/08.
Sick.
I saw a clip of Buchanan the other day. He was basically saying we deserved 9/11 and bin Laden was within his right to attack because of our support for Israel. He's a left-wing loon.
And Joe was in that Congress! Cannot believe this is the Joe Scarborough who "used" to be a Republican Congressman. Now he carries the water for the RATs.
And that surprises you?
He may not vote for Bush in November, did you know that?
Why do you watch these fools?
My thoughts exactly. Nobody watching Joe make a fool of himself. Nobody heard of that candidate Pat was thinking of voting for...Constitutional Party. I reached for the remote. Nothing against the C.P. but we're at war here and GW needs support. Fracturing his support elects a RAT and we're doomed.
Now they have the Nat'l debt clock on the bootom of the screen.
Joe just said, "They betrayed Reagan's legacy."
Hello, Reagan had huge deficits. This is freaking loopy.
They are now actively calling for the GOP to get thrown out in Nov. Wonderful!!!
What you refuse to realize is that these programs have constituencies. I wish we would cut programs, but with the demagoguery in the media and the graying of America won't permit the cuts you want.
These are two nobody talking heads now; Rick Kaplan signs their paycheck.
The O'Blowlyly just barely scraped through tonight in not losing half of his audience in the O'Neill interview.
Scarborough a media whore impregnated by the spawn of satan never had an audience, don't encourage the creepy freak by making it known you watch.
