Your humble correspondent feels obligated to warn you about the article you are about to see. It is a harsh but brutally honest review written by Brian Maloney of The Radio Equalizer about Joe Scarborough's new book, The Last Best Hope: Restoring Conservatism and America's Promise. Certain members of the reading audience may experience a strange tingling sensation while reading the review. Should you require require medical assistance while looking at the review, a registered nurse is standing by in the lobby:

Over the past several weeks, this site has been tracking the attempt by MSNBC's Joe Scarborough to make money bashing his former friends in any and every available public venue. With a new book to peddle, could attacking onetime colleagues from his conservative days fuel sales? New data from the publishing world, as well as radio and TV, provide the answer.

To promote the release, the former GOP congressman turned radio and TV host appeared on left-leaning television shows such as The View and did interviews with the New York Times and Newsweek. Each time, he was quick to bash Rush Limbaugh, Karl Rove, Newt Gingrich, and other key conservative figures.

PING!

Excellent review, especially the comments made by those that have read his book.

I listened to his radio show for a total of three minutes.

Slop.

Pure, unadulterated slop.

Was this guy ever a conservative?

[Eagle Eye]

IMO the GOP forced his resignation subsequent to the woman’s body being found in his office.

No one, I mean NO ONE, just resigns a congressional office a couple months after winning an election in order to ‘spend more time with his family’.

My dad always said “follow the money trail.” Joe is a sellout and when you see who writes his paycheck you will know why.

Never underestimate on how low some people will go for a few bucks.

“The Last Best Dope” ? Is that a book about our fearless dictator ?

[paulycy]

the attempt by MSNBC's Joe Scarborough to make money bashing his former friends in any and every available public venue.

Absolutely true that. He throws conservatives under the bus *personally* every day. (Yes, I watch Moaning Joe.)

To Joe it seems that conservatism is a good abstract topic but nothing serious to actually put into practice in your life. If you actually stand up for a conservative or against a liberal you're looked down on.

That sucks, Joe.

[jeepers creepers]

‘Slop.

Pure, unadulterated slop.”

That.

[beandog]

This can’t be true. Joe tells his audience every day how great his tour is going and how much the people love him and how much he love’s himself. :)

I thought he announced his resignation before that happened. No?

The subtitle for Joe's book should be:
Ego a mile wide and conservatism an inch deep.

"No one, I mean NO ONE, just resigns a congressional office a couple months after winning an election in order to ‘spend more time with his family’."

He was a 'running buddy' of Gary Condit and was exposed as a low-life during the Chandra Levy investigation.

“He was a ‘running buddy’ of Gary Condit and was exposed as a low-life during the Chandra Levy investigation.”

That explains it. Gary Condom

His book debuts at #7 on the NYT bestseller list next week. Not too shabby or draw yout own conclusion.

Please define 'medical'.
