Scarborough on Corey Booker Grandstanding: ‘Irked’ Dem Senators Wanted ‘to Drag Him Away’
Legal Insurrection ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/12/2017 10:11:12 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Cory Booker’s shameless gambit of launching his presidential bid by attacking Jeff Sessions has really gotten under this Insurrectionist’s skin. From my Quick Hit of this morning: “I reckon he earned the scorn of many of his fellow Dems for his transparent ploy.”

And so it was gratifying to get confirmation this morning from Joe Scarborough, who on Morning Joe said this of Booker’s stunt: “obviously calculated . . . in a way that would have the other senators, especially Democratic senators, wanting to drag him away . . . a lot of senators irked, especially on the Democratic side. They thought he was launching his bid for the 2020 campaign.”

IKR? That is a shame because I am sure that there are any number of blacks far more qualified that Obama.

Dino the Dinosaur!

He ruffled through notes, read from those notes, was ill-spoken and confused. In other words, a typical dumb lib who turned a basket case of a city into a flattened tin can. Someone asked yesterday if NJ pols every got any further than their home state, lol.

Something else to consider is that New Jersey has a reputation for being a graveyard for national political ambitions. There’s a reason why there hasn’t been anyone from NJ in a leadership position of any substance in Washington (president, VP, Senate or House leadership, etc.) in 100 years.

That bald thing could be a skull cap and there are creams to put on. It’s not as if “Corey” is super dark or anything. We need to see him throw a football. Lets get a congressional investigation going on this...

Since Obama has been such an outstanding black president, let’s do it again...!

The white population in this country put a liberal black man in the WH, I don’t expect them to make that same mistake again...for a very long, long time...

Quick, someone get a PI to find his birth certificate and school records before they all get sealed!

Corey is delusional, he thinks he has a chance to be POTUS in 2020.

Oh contraire, Mr. Race-baiter, you will NEVER be president. 2016 was about total rejection and destruction of Obama’s racist, stupid, and destructive policies. If you think we will have forgotten what the worst president ever did to our great country, you’re in for a big surprise.

Rant and rave all you want, Mr Race Baiter. Nobody except the other race baiters is listening to you.

His testimony was pitiful. If he was trying to launch his POTUS campaign, he failed miserably and came off as an intellectual lightweight. At least Obama was a halfway good liar and bullshit artist (with the MSM support).

He kept alluding to his notion that Senator Sessions record did not seem to indicate that he supports the “racial justice” that Senator Booker supports.

There was no evidence of racial animus or indifference in Senator Sessions record that Booker pointed to. I got the sense that his issue with Sessions is that he isn’t a racial grievance monger like Eric Holder.

CORY BOOKER biography

Cory Booker's parents were among the first black executives at IBM. Upon graduation from high school, he attended Stanford. There, he earned as BA in Political Science and an MA in Sociology. He was then awarded a Rhodes Scholarship for study at Oxford. Upon returning to the US, he attended Yale Law School, graduating in 1997.

From this biography, I would assume that he's a child of privilege who was groomed for higher office. I would also assume that he'll continue to jabber about the struggle of black people....maybe he read about it.

The only thing he needs is a black skin. That’s all that matters to them. The Democrat Party will be the party of the minorities, with no whites included. They have sealed their own fate.................

I have seen ZERO mention of the three Black supporters that took to the stand and gave glowing praise and admiration for Sessions.

They were all identified on CNN and MSLSD as , "Tom, Tom and Tom."

Gezz I wonder if Jeff Sessions will have to recuse himself when the Feds indict him?

Booker wants to be American’s first shaved head president.

Unlike Obama, Booker actually comes from a normal family. His parents were both IBM executives, and he grew up in a wealthy New Jersey suburb.

Obama, on the other hand, has a background that's so fouled up that he couldn't even pick his birth parents out of a police lineup by the time he was five years old.

“He doesn’t have that “magic something”. I can see him trying but I seriously doubt America would even consider him this close to Obama.”

Obama managed to catch lightening in a bottle. Perfect person at the perfect place at the perfect time.
He was that magical “first black president”.
All blacks who try to follow will have a much steeper hill to climb because there can only be ONE “first_____” and Obie holds that title.

Kamala Harris from CA might have a shot because of the vagina factor, but I’m not sure that will be a big enough factor to win her the prize.
