It's War! 'Elitist' Scarborough vs. 'Nativist' Rubio
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 12/22/2015 5:27:08 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

In the past, Joe Scarborough hasn't exactly hidden his disdain for Marco Rubio, saying he reminds him of an eager student government candidate and questioning his integrity. But things have now escalated to open warfare between the two.

Scarborough, responding to an ad in which Rubio speaks of feeling "out of place in our own country," tweeted an attack accusing Rubio of playing a "crass, offensive, nativist" [read xenophobic/borderline racist] card. Rubio has fired back, putting out a fundraising message in which he slams Scarborough as an "elitist."

I bet if Li’l Joey went back to Lower Alabama where he’s from, he’d feel out of place.

It might be fun if Rubio loses his cool and shows a mad-as-hell side.

What do readers think? Is Rubio's line about feeling "out of place in our own country" . . . out of line? Or is he simply expressing something that millions of good Americans feel?

This reader think Rubio is crash and disgusting but not because he's a 'nativist', but a lying slug.

As much as I despise that pussy Scarborough, I refer to Rubio as the “teacher’s pet”, as in the last debate: “Oh, oh! I know what the nuclear triad is!”

“Rubio speaks of feeling “out of place in our own country,””

I’m also beginning to “feel” out of place in our own country. If Rubio and the rest of the amnesty whores would leave and go somewhere they’re more comfortable instead of importing that somewhere else here we’d all be more comfortable.

I have listened to Joe sometimes, but there is just something about him that rubs me the wrong way most of the time...and its on a lot of topics he does this on....

Me too. I think Joe has a drinking problem and works with a hangover a lot of the time. He looks, talks and acts like it.

Hmmm...I wonder if some Machiavellian staffer from the Rubio camp had a sit-down with Scarborough in which he asked him to attack little Marco, so Rubio could sound like a tough guy in his responses to the meanies of the media.
