Page Six reports that the newly revamped "Meet the Press," which launches this coming Sunday with Chuck Todd as moderator, has chosen Joe Scarborough to be the "right-leaning voice" in the role of a regular panelist.
Other regular panelists will include anyone familiar with the hard-left MSNBC: Andrea Mitchell and Luke Russert.
Assigning Scarborough the role of the "right-leaning voice" is a grave error on the part of NBC News. Forget the fact that with each passing day he becomes more of an insufferable blowhard on his own "Morning Joe," this "right-leaning voice" pushes for gun control, amnesty, boycotts of companies that don't want to pay higher taxes, and is currently the only person in America -- right or left -- who sees Obama's foreign policy fecklessness as brilliant, a sort of 5th-level game of Chess that only dogs can hear.
Scarborough has accused Israel of out-and-out war crimes and loathes the Tea Party.

It’ll work if they build a time machine and bring back the 1999 or so Joe, before he went native.
Shouldn’t that be less left?
Who watches this shit anyway? Meet The Press is irrelavent.
Meet the Press? Is that still on TV?
NBC wants to give the illusion of fairness without actually being fair. It speaks badly of the show.
Wow they sure picked a hardcore right-winger didn’t they - ROTFL - No wonder MTP is completely irrelevant.
The sole on his left shoe is .5mm thicker than his right shoe.
I know a liberal who cites Scarborough as representative of conservative views which could not be further from the truth.
Truly ridiculous.
Scarborough is about as conservative as Trotsky.
Geez, they are doubling down on stupidity over at NBC. I need to switch to satellite from Comcast. They are worse nuts than GE was when it comes the the “news” division.
He was a Republican, so he must be “conservative”, right?
