Scarborough Country ^ | 10/22/04

Daily Recycler has the clip of tonight's Scarborough Country. You have to see it to believe it. A little over three minutes.

Slimy, cowardly pathetic weasel.
Lawrence O'Donnell thinks he is biig man siting in a TV studio from afar and shouting out abuse at one of America's bravest men. Lawrence O'Donnell, a guy who has not even fought a second in any war in his miserable, sorry life.
Lets see how long he lasts in a real fight.
All I m asking is just FIVE minutes alone with this terrorist backing Lawrence O'Donnell cretin.
Just 5 minutes in a locked room with him , and lets see how brave he really is.
Also, we shall see how much is left of this skunk after that time period, and if he has to be carried to the hospital or his grave!
Someone outta collar this guy, and put him out of business!

[Dont Mention the War]

Pat is a terrible host. Has he ever thought of cutting off the mic of someone who won't shut up.

It's not Pat's mic to cut off. The producer is in control.

If it were actually Pat's show, he might have some say, but Pat's only sitting in for Scarborough.

Thank you for providing this clip. It was fascinating viewing. John O'Neill has done an amazing job keeping his cool on this and other programs. He has an incredible ability to stay in control under pressure -- I'm sure those are traits valued in our armed forces.

Lawrence takes rabid to a whole new level. He sure does, why don't they let him go out and campaign with sKerry, he's as looney as Bore!

[elizabetty]

I wonder if O'Donnell can Produce a human being who will claim to have written that after action report? Kerry wrote it and anybody not on drugs can see that clearly.

[Mister Baredog]

I saw it, he was unbelieveable, these idiots have really lost it.

He should have to watch his own video for punishment.

He really deserved a fist in the face, so to speak.

[blondee123]

I love how no matter how much nastiness is thrown at him, John O'Neill never loses his cool or raises his voice. He just plugs away with his message, and lets the other person come off looking like an ass.

Me too, he just showed the total mentality of the DUmmie party!

[elizabetty]

The folks on the Swift Vets blog are saying O'Donnell said the word "LIAR" 46 times!

[blondee123]

Hope you are all sending this link out in email. Get this around.

When Frank Luntz came on and said the people are sick of the yelling, Lawrence O'Donnell looked embarrassed and ashamed of his outburst. So at least he still has a bit of conscience left. He has not been totally consumed by the dark side.

[Mister Baredog]

Politics all too often attracts sleazes like the product of bowl movements attract flies. Nobody "normal" would act like O'Donnell did. Nobody

He is an associate producer on the West Wing, splains a lot huh?, LOL.

Pat did a good job keeping his cool and letting the story unfold. O'Neill's story has been told and will be told again. Having a fellow "journalist" go bonkers on the air is an event one must let emerge. Cutting him off would only be protecting O'Donnell from the embarassment.

Don't get me wrong, O'Donnell will get big time praise from the hard left, but he's going to be marginalized now. The Nation types and DU types are going to elevate him as a favorite. But by the time this is over, he's going to have to go on a sabbatical before working "mainstream" again as anything other than a leftist pundit.

Especially if the blogosphere let's O'donnell's words speak and gets MANY more viewers than MSNBC had on a Friday night.

The video player on that site does not work.

Well, I'm up late and the rerun comes on a little later. I'll catch that and try the link in the morning..

[texasbluebell]

Did anyone keep track of how many times O'Donnell said lie/liar?

I counted 25 times in the space of 3 minutes, by O'Donnell, 13 times in the first minute alone.

Lawrence O'Donnell has officially shown himself to be a fool, a dim hack, a moron.

Never again will he appear on my television screen, on any network that shows his face.

O'Donnell looked like an alien, he didn't even seem to resemble a human in this clip. What an ugly ugly man.

Thanks for posting this, I would not have seen this display otherwise.

Here's a picture of the smarmy prick. His biography says he was a graduate of Harvard College in 1976, which leads me to believe he was of draft age before it ended in 1973. He took the easy way out, as opposed to John O'Neill who fought in Vietnam for over a year.

[The PeteMan]

O'donnell is a pathetic fat-lipped idiot...He must be related to Rosie.

[kwlabr2]

Unlike some here, I found this video clip hysterical...how can anyone take this clown seriously? What a dope! Though I think the "Around the Horn" idea of a mute button would have been handy during that exchange.

I think he was trying for a spot in Guiness' Book of World Records...the most times shouting "liar" in a 3 minute period. I lost count at 799...

[fizziwig]

"Liar! Liar! You're a liar! That's a lie! Liar! Liar! What about the intitials? Liar! You're a liar who lies and you're lying a lie liar! Liar! You're a liar! Initials! Liar! You lie! You're a liar! Lies! Lies! You're a liar! A disgusting liar! You lie! You're a liar! You lie! Liar!"

You forgot "creepy liar". :)

This is a very upsetting video that will make you angry as heck. Just fair warning. I feel completely disgusted.

Yeah, I saw it earlier tonight and feel the same way about it as you do. John O'Neill was so admirable in his ability to keep his cool under fire.
