So you're the guy with the Employee of the Month's cock in your mouth?

Your video, Whitehouse Calls Scarborough an A*Hole over Nobel Comments, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

Joe Scarborough won Videosift's asshat of the week award and he deserved it.

From NPR:
The Norwegian committee that awards the prize said that Obama had "captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future." Committee Chairman Thorbjoern Jagland acknowledged that the award was more for Obama's aspirations than for his achievements: "It was because we would like to support what he is trying to achieve."

So do us all a favor and stop bitching about it ok ?

In reply to this comment by GenjiKilpatrick:
Barack Obama hasn't done anything. At all.
He could easily write executive orders to: stop corporate thievery, end don't ask don't tell, or proceed with war crime prosecution(aka justice). Snl summed it up perfectly.

He's a do-nothing president and hasn't earned our trust or respect, much less a supposedly highly honorable award.

I don't care if they give him the Nobel award. It's just an award. It doesn't mean anything.

But for Scarborough to say that it was given to Jimmy Carter and Al Gore because they hated George Bush, and to Harold Pinter because he hated America? That's just ridiculous.

Oh, and the bit about Reagan was HILARIOUS.

Thanks for the *quality!

^ Did you really just lump Joe Scarborough and Gore Vidal together?

"I was like everyone else when Obama was elected - optimistic. Everything we had been saying about racial integration was vindicated, but he's incompetent. He will be defeated for re-election."

With such a long intellectual history, it's a pity no one taught him how to think. I understand many of the advances in scientific thought weren't here yet when he was growing up, but he doesn't have any excuses for not reading up on things when he still had his mind a decade ago.

His wording predicting Obama's defeat in 2012 implies maybe 80%-99% certainty, depending on how literally you interpret it. His crystal ball must be amazing. Contrast that with the odds at Intrade, which gives the Democrats almost 2 to 1 chances of winning that election, and gives Obama an 87% chance of winning his party's nomination.

Intrade is a political futures market, and it's considered more accurate than polls, etc. Meanwhile, know-nothings like Gore Vidal and Joe Scarborough continue assigning certitude to whatever pops into their addled minds.

I saw this guy get smacked down by Joe Scarborough on Morning Joe. Weiner is clueless on anything outside of his district.

Ha. What movie is that from?

In reply to this comment by burdturgler:

Oops, Scarborough slipped out of character. He is gonna get a talkin' to by the producer.

Scarborough - "I've been saying how evil Iran is for a very long time. It makes me feel good about myself." (paraphrased)

He then goes on to explain that such inflammatory rhetoric is not helpful in this situation. Which begs the question, what situation is it helpful in? Aside from making yourself feel good of course.
