"Mitt Romney Kept Us From Reporting on Security Failures!"
I . . . er, . . . uh . . . I simply have no words for this.
JOE SCARBOROUGH: Talk about the conservative critique--and I think it's a fair critique, the conservative critique: that all you guys in the media were talking about Mitt Romney, you should have talked about the warnings with the embassy, etc., etc. And yes perhaps we should have. But you know who didn't allow us to do that?
MIKA BRZEZINSKI: Mitt Romney.
SCARBOROUGH: Mitt Romney. If Mitt Romney had kept his mouth shut, if he had not acted like a rank amateur, if he had not embarrassed himself--and by the way internally the campaign understands they screwed up, he's moved on, they know that. So no conservative can say "oh, the mainstream media, blah, blah." They know how badly they screwed up, and they were having the fight internally before he even went out and did it. But Romney got in the way of the media looking at the president, going, wha-, wha-, what happened here? How did this happen? Now, those questions are going to be asked in the coming weeks. But they weren't asked in the first 24 hours because Romney was holding this horrific, irresponsible, press conference.

Re: "Mitt Romney Kept Us From Reporting on Security Failures!"
Unbelievable.
One man makes an official statement in front of about 15 reporters, and suddenly he's held the entire national media hostage.

I have no Christian or CoC compliant things to say about that, so I'll shut up now.

Re: "Mitt Romney Kept Us From Reporting on Security Failures!"
Yeah, I lied up there. I actually did have words for that, but discretion being the better part of valor, etc. . . .

Islam delenda est
Thank God nobody watches MSNBC. Even so, this actually makes them look stupid. He's basically saying that he was forced to cover Mitt Romney in lieu of Obama. I used to think Progressives were stupid. I still do. Now I actually hate them all. Even my sister.

So therefore Mitt owns this topic. Go for it, Mitt. Have daily presidential press briefings (taking no questions) about the problem, how we got into this mess, and how to fix it.

Madness. Scarborough is a disgrace.

Re: "Mitt Romney Kept Us From Reporting on Security Failures!"
Scarborough is the conservative on MSNBC? Well, I guess comparatively he is, being just a leftist rather than a communist.

Re: "Mitt Romney Kept Us From Reporting on Security Failures!"
Scarborough used to be known as a conservative, recently he seems to me more of a shill for liberals.

You watch The Morning Joe? You might as well watch reruns of Yu-Gi-Oh!

Re: "Mitt Romney Kept Us From Reporting on Security Failures!"
Prawn and Drew, if you have any four letter words to adequately reply to this, they'd be new to me. I'm voting with 'Bizarro' and "unbelievable'. How'd he do it with a straight face?

Is this Joe Scarborough?

Re: "Mitt Romney Kept Us From Reporting on Security Failures!"
This sounds so much like one child blaming the other for her misbehavior. I've got a bamboo spoon for that at my house, but what can we do about it as a nation?

If Joe had had his head screwed on straight, he'd of blamed Bush!

That's quite a tongue bath he gave to the Obama administration: I sure hope he's got all of his vaccinations up to date.

Re: "Mitt Romney Kept Us From Reporting on Security Failures!"
That would be at least as informative about world events, and a whole lot more entertaining.
The Left — politicians, commentators, and media alike — have simply lost their minds and become incoherent.

Re: "Mitt Romney Kept Us From Reporting on Security Failures!"
It's worse than that. He once held office in Florida with an R next to his name, so a member of my family occasionally calls with the latest Scarboroughasm touting it as the opinion of sensible Republicans. (She subscribes to the Atlantic as well.) Sometimes giving these scoundrels the attention required to denounce and dismiss them is necessary.
They tried him locally on WMAL radio for a few weeks, but he just didn't make the grade. Definitely MSNBC quality.

He's such a Scarborough.
