Morning Joe Rips 'Old White Guy' Republicans For Going After 'Younger Woman-of-Color' Rice

From Joe Scarborough to John Heilemann, Katty Kay to Mark Halperin to Willie Geist, it was unanimous on today's Morning Joe. Whatever the substance, whatever the policy, Republicans would be making a massive political mistake by opposing the possible nomination of Susan Rice as Secretary of State.

Summed up Scarborough the MJ zeitgeist: "do a bunch of old white guys want to make their first big battle, post-election, a battle going up against a younger woman of color?"

Why does anyone listen to that network or any of its commietators? Frankly, I care more what the worms in my yard dirt have to say than them.

What do a bunch of old white guys have to lose by doing so?

I never would’ve even heard of Morning Joe without the benefit of Free Republic.

I honestly did not realize she was black before all this came out! I did, however, realize she was an incompetent bungler who only says what the Prez wants to be heard.

It’s so funny how the only people who continue to point out race are liberals.

Indeed it is. It's a proven & effective method to NOT have to answer questions. And the right just allows it to take hold time & again. They don't want to be seen as bullies, don't cha know?

You know, I realize Joe Scarborough was once a Republican Congressman, but was he *really* one?

You can't utter words like this:

"do a bunch of old white guys want to make their first big battle, post-election, a battle going up against a younger woman of color?"

without having others wonder if you ever had any integrity at all.

Good point. The elderly Eric Cantor is almost seven whole months older than that poor young ingenue Susan Rice.

Why can't he just give her a break?

She's three years younger than the President! How can she be expected to operate at a peak level of competence this early in her career?
