Consider the depths of Scarborough's hypocrisy for condemning Republicans for suggesting Zimmerman was--rightly as it turns out--not guilty, but refusing to apologize himself for--wrongly--calling Zimmerman a murderer. Posted on 08/16/2013 9:59:43 AM PDT by SeekAndFind
Talk about a hypocritical, mealy-mouthed non-apology apology . . . On today's Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough condemned Republicans who "support[ed] George Zimmerman before they even knew the facts of the case." Scarborough then added: "you know, I got out early, said some things about George Zimmerman myself, I shouldn't have said, perhaps. I got overly emotional. But I'm not in office. And if I were in office I would have apologized."
Scarborough didn't reveal to viewers the "some things" he had said about Zimmerman. In fact, early on in the case, long before the facts were on the table, Scarborough branded Zimmerman a "murderer." But Scarborough doesn't feel the need to apologize because he's not a politician. Is that Scarborough's standard? The host of a major national show can go on the air and cavalierly and unjustly accuse someone of murder. But because he's not in public office, he has no need to apologize? View the video after the jump.

JOE SCARBOROUGH: You take Trayvon Martin, it would have cost Republican leaders absolutely nothing, Ed Rendell, absolutely nothing, to just show a little respect. And show a little bit of sympathy.
ED RENDELL: And they didn't do it.
SCARBOROUGH: And speak out against the most extreme elements. Supporting George Zimmerman before they even knew the facts of the case. Now, again, you know, I got out early, said some things about George Zimmerman myself, I shouldn't have said, perhaps. I got overly emotional. But I'm not in office. And if I were in office I would have apologized.
And he’s not a journalist, either. He’s a mug on MSNBC.
SANTORUM PRONOUNCES ZIMMERMAN GUILTY BEFORE TRIAL, OR CHARGE
BREITBART May 2012
“Republican presidential contender Sen. Rick Santorum appeared on CBS’ Face the Nation this morning and pronounced George Zimmerman guilty of murder in the first degree.
Admitting that he was “not privy to what’s going on in someone’s mind,” Santorum nevertheless said that Zimmerman, who shot and killed teenager Trayvon Martin while participating in a neighborhood watch last month, “has a very sick mind who would pursue someone like this.” He added that Zimmerman’s motive had been “malicious.”
The mental state of the alleged perpetrator, the motive, and the question of whether he pursued the alleged victim, are both critical in determining guilt. Santorum’s conclusions are consistent with first-degree murder under Florida law.
As a lawyer, Santorum ought to know that Zimmerman would be entitled to a presumption of innocence if he were facing trial—and he has not even been charged with a crime.”
Hey Joe, hope Zimmerman doesn’t sue your sorry self for defamation for branding him a murderer.
I do
He has child molester eyes
Just curious.
5.56mm
And ,in my opinion, not much of a human being either.
I can say that because I'm not a politician.
And that is his good points.
We can only hope.

Joe is an ignorant, desperate has-been, clinging to a job at the worst network on TV by his fingernails. He knows that if he loses his MSNBC charity gig, he’s finished.
bump to that!
Joe needs to keep his job. What else can he say?
Scarborough demonstrates how deep this goes! Even after the facts are exposed this mealy-mouthed phoney pos couldn’t condem what ammounts to painting a target on a citizen’s back who was doing his job because it’s usefull to the regime.
The truth and dual purpose behind the Zimmerman persecution .. The regime and the media set the premise for the trial narrative and their presentations ignoring the setting where the incident took place..A “gated” area having a “Neighborhood Watch”...The first was to gin up the base for purposes explained herein but there was another second agenda..
(snip)
WHAT WOULD THAT PURPOSE BE ?
What better way to cover up Bengahzi, Fast and furious, IRS, Wind and Solar panel gate, NSA spying on US, Over-riding the constittution? Don’t look into who accompaines Obama on his many trips around the world at taxpayer expence ? Were they the heavy hitters or their friends holding the president’s hand isn’t that pay back at US taxpayer expence?. Isn’t that an impeachable offense ??
Now if somebody even suggests impeachment. Get to your black base voters, whom you’ve done nothing for,.all worked up. Pick on some security guard who’s doing his job. Accuse him of being racist ,even though he is part black..But his last name sounds “jewish.”Who’s doing surveilance in an mixed race area of modest means a where there’s been robberies and burgalries by young blacks. Now call that surveilance stalking, the area he’s patrolling owned by rich whities,and the guard of course he’s white.That person he’s watching a 10 year old black kid and a saint ,not six foot two 165 pound 16 year old, who gets killed fighting over a gun. . Now put a target on the security guards back .Ain’t that neat ? What better way to discourage any investigation into malfeasance and corruption by organizing the base for riots in the streets ? Think it’s too far fetched ? Think it’s not working ? Look again http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3051558/posts
To date the political opposition has yet to mention or comment on this example of how this regime operates. It’s time to ask them why
Scarborough is a murderer.
