Scarborough Goes After Issa For Calling Jay Carney A ‘Paid Liar’: ‘You Can’t Say Things Like This’

Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) went after the Obama administration hard on Sunday, charging that the IRS targeting was “directly ordered from Washington” and deeming White House Press Secretary Jay Carney a “paid liar.” Responding to the criticism on Monday, Joe Scarborough didn’t approve of Issa’s approach. It’s simply making him look bad, he argued.

“Darrell Issa hurts himself and his cause more than Jay Carney or the White House when he calls him a paid liar,” Scarborough asserted. There’s a lot working against Carney right now, so he and Mika Brzezinski agreed that Issa should just let the issue breathe.

Carney’s said many things “clearly not in line with the facts,” Scarborough agreed. “But if you’re in this position as a chairman, responsible for these investigations, that just basically announces to everybody — I’m not saying he is — ‘I’m a partisan. Anything that I conclude is based on my partisan beliefs.’ You’ve got to pull back and you’ve — you can’t say things like this.”

Harold Ford, Jr. agreed that such remarks damage Issa’s “credibility.” He should let the facts come out, he added, and not appear as if he’s already made up his mind before the investigations conclude.

Funny how the a-hole libs always object to the truth. Carney is not only a paid liar, but an apologist for an individual who would be make himself dictator.

My attorney told me to NEVER call anyone a liar because it’s too easy to twist the truth and backfire. He also said setting someone up and forcing the truth is not a crime.

Carney would probably lie for free, but now all we're doing is establishing his price.

Doesn’t Joe Scarborough have any marketable skill other than pimping for Obama on a Leftist network that no one watches? Thank God he’s not my son.

Racist, idiots, monkeys, ...... They call conservatives names all of the time. To quote Harry Truman, “...I just tell them the truth and they think it is hell!”

Yet Joe and Mika give Harry Reid and the Dems a free pass to say whatever they want.

Joe said nothing to Howard Dean when he made some pretty vile comments last week.

LOL! Would Ford have us believe he hasn't made up HIS mind, no matter WHAT facts come out?

Maybe he's one of the lucky few who has a job doing what he loves to do. So the face that he's being paid to lie is really just incidental.

But he sure doesn't look like he's enjoying himself lately!
