Joe Scarborough Slams Newt Gingrich For Calling Obama ‘The Opposite Of Freedom’

Video
» 147 comments

MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough was slightly less than enthused over Newt Gingrich‘s speech at the recent Republican leadership conference, wherein he described Barack Obama as “the opposite of freedom.”

In fact, Scarborough positively went off on Gingrich:

Sir, why can’t you just say, “I disagree with his viewpoints” instead of bringing up Stalin and Hitler and saying he’s opposite of freedom? Gaddafi is the opposite of freedom. Al Qaeda is the opposite of freedom. Why does he keep saying stupid things like that?

What else would pundits have to talk about if politicians were to stop speaking in hyperbole? The economy? John Boehner?

Co-host Mika Brzezinski, while visibly delighted, gently advised Scarborough to finish his breakfast.

    Fact: Joe is still on the Goldenboys band wagon and has no clue what’s going on outside.

  • Azarkhan

    Calling the Democratic Party and Obama “Stalinist” is accurate. Mentioning Hitler is going a wee bit overboard.

  • Rio

    Would someone just buy that lemon sucking little twerp some happy pills? or would that break the msnbc budget?

  • BatBoy

    unfortunately for Joe and for Newt…most of America do not care what opinion either of them have on anything.

    They have rendered themselves insignificant!

  • Dave Splash

    Scarborough shouldn’t even waste his time on a lying, has been adulterer like Gingrich. It just gives him more of the attention he craves and can’t get through any actual campaigning or policy proposals.

  • Moderate

    Stalin wanted to redistribute the wealth and so does Obama. Stalin wanted to put non-productive workers in forced labor camps, Obama has not gone that far. The problem with redistributing the wealth is everyone wants to be on the receiving end so forced labor camps are necessary.

  • TillieGlockenspiel

    Who are you going to believe, Joe Scarborough or your lying eyes?

    Joe and Mika act as though they’re at an Upper West side or Georgetown cocktail party every time they’re on the air. They are just snarky and bi#@hy on every show. Newt is right, Obama doesn’t believe that the people of the United States DESERVE freedom, DESERVE to make their own decisions and live with the consequences. Unfortunately, we are now living through the consequences of our “American Idol” president. I’m not totally sure we will survive him- and George Soros, et al will be there to buy up the pieces.

    Joe, quit lying that you’re a Republican, much less a conservative. No one who can think critically could ever believe it.

    Well Joe, Obama’s desired policies do ultimately lead to a lack of freedoms, so what’s your beef? You’re really not thinking it through that deeply, are you? Are you satisfied with the progressives eroding our liberties?

    Why on earth do people keep calling Scarborough a conservative? I mean, I realize that he is relatively conservative in comparison with the rest of the over the edge left wing MSNBC staff, but still.

    Republican candidates have to pander to that base because that’s all their party has left.

    But I say bring it on and keep it up. I hope every Republican stump speech between now and November 2012 sounds like this. This sort of talk will win them fewer votes than McCain got in ’08.

    Marxism is extremely difficult to read and to understand. I doubt few conservatives understand it. In fact, most conservatives I know tend to equate Marxism with the much, much simpler Leninism/Stalinism. Very different.

    HPW (I love that name from one of my favorites films) is correct. Congressional elections tend to be partisan on one side, reactive on another whilst Presidential elections tend to be more issue-oriented. What worked in 2010 for the Republicans, who still managed to lose the Senate, won’t necessarily work in 2012.

    Bunny Boy is also correct. McCain was too respectful of our political process and not hateful enough to suit latter day Republicans. He is a gentleman and a very good American.

    I assume my “Bush” you meant W, not Poppy. Never hated either one. Didn’t hate Raygun either. Poppy was a slightly less than adequate president; W, an utterly disastrous one; Raygun would have been slightly less than adequate if he had been president in the 1920′s. In the 1980′s, he was awful. But, never hated. That is pretty much an emotion exclusive to Republicans about African-American presidents, it would seem.

    Washington — Sharply higher fuel efficiency standards by 2025 could force vehicle prices up by nearly $10,000, reduce sales by 5.5 million vehicles annually and eliminate more than 260,000 jobs, according to a study by the Ann Arbor-based Center for Automotive Research.

    The center’s study, released Tuesday, predicted it will cost between $3,744 and $9,790 per vehicle to develop and produce cars that meet a range of between 47 and 62 mpg — a span being considered by federal regulators — by 2025.

    That’s far higher than the $770 to $3,500 per vehicle estimate issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency.

    Every single day. And no. Please don’t tell us any details.

    I respectfully disagree. Newt is far from done. Maybe your right and in the end it might cost him, I mean with the media and all the bs, but Newt is great with what matters, like actual ideas on issues. I’m not saying he has my vote but I agree with him on pretty much everthing. If we want to fall victim to believing “scandals” like Tiffanys matter while a far left socialist agenda gets pushed on us, well then we deserve the hell of wacthing our country turn into a third world country.

    Listen, I agree with you on Newt being an issue guy. That is where the Republican need him….he is not too good at running a Presidential race…there are better ones out there.

    You are right about the Tiffany thing…just another emotional lefty issue. They throw so much at the wall, hoping something sticks, but I think people get very tired of that.

    “I was molested by Blacks in HS”

    Skippy, I never was and I never said that. But I did give you crime stats from the DOJ and FBI proving that blacks attack whites more than the other way around. That’s why you keep up that ‘what did they do to you’ line. Because you refuse to deal with reality.

    I never knew you were molested. Yes, I knew you were chased thrice daily and I presumed you were always caught, but I never knew what happened once you were caught. I wish you had shared that with me. Are you sure they were Black, or was it one of Juan’s racial mixes?

  • writer

    King, I do wish instead of lily white private schools, you’d gone to my high school. I can just see you going up to a gang of Crips and saying, “I’m a white liberal, and I understand.” I think it would have been funny as hell.

    I would encourage you to criticize. I am often very critical of our President. I’d give him a C+ rating at this time. I do fail to see t he conservative need to bash and smear the man and the office and to engage in such racial animosity towards him.

    If it were Biden, Gore, Clinton, Reid, Kerry, anyone of them (notice they’re all white) with the exception of “hizzouse” jokes, we would be saying the same things. So when are you going to drop this typical and played out liberal game of playing the “victim?” It’s embarrassing when everyone knows but you continue to do it anyway. Dont you get embarrassed?

    And have you watched the TV commercials where they show whites breaking in homes, not a single black or as RRK says “Juan’s racial mixes” They don’t want to offend any race unless it is the white race. That’s the socialist liberal way of doing things these days. Since Obama deceived and lied his way into the Whitehouse people have become more divided and that is really sad to see. We need to remind the President it’s “we the people” NOT Me the President!!

    It’s funny, you know who else believed in the redistribution of wealth? That crazy commie founder of modern capitalism, Adam Smith. You know, he of the sacred invisible hand…

    “Servants, labourers, and workmen of different kinds, make up the far greater part of every political society. But what improves the circumstances of the greater part can never be regarded as an inconveniency to the whole. No society can surely be flourishing and happy, of which the far greater part of the members are poor and miserable. It is but equity, besides, that they who feed, clothe, and lodge the whole body of the people, should have such a share of the produce of their own labor as to be themselves tolerably well fed, cloathed and lodged.” – Adam Smith, The Wealth of Nations Bk. 1, Ch. 8

    Idiot, I’ve told you like a thousand times.

    Criminal behavior is that. Criminal.

    Why do you think whites attack whites who don’t belong to the same gang? Because the other whites are not white enough? – NO. Because that is what criminals do. Attack anyone who they identify as a potential victim.

    Yes, it’s quite shocking when conservatives stop playing nice and have the nerve to describe what they see.

  • writer

    Skippy, since you find it very credible that many white people are racist, and carry out crimes based on race, why do you find it impossible that any other race would do that? What exactly are you basing this on? The DOJ and FBI both have categories based on racial crimes, and they show that races besides the white race are committing crimes based on race all the time. So why the denial?

  • writer

    Just be honest for once, Skippy. If a white attacks a black, it’s horrible. If it’s the other way around, it’s funny. You’re a psycho.

    I think it is funny that you think any high schooler would approach any high school group, (or gang), and make idiotic statements. But I guess when you grow old you kind of forget what it was like, to be in high school. At least in my high shcool we didn’t go around discussing the finer points of being Conservative or Liberal. And from the sound of it, I highly doubt these were major points of discussion, at your high school. At my high school we were too busy being teenagers. Like where are you going Friday night? Who’s taking Who, to the Prom? Etc…

    “Thou doest protest to much”. Ergo, you are trying to hard to convince someone…

    Your response has nothing at all with my Post. I’ve noticed that your argumentation techniques and tactics are repetitive and frequently rely on the “error of fact fallacy”

    For instance you often accuse others of failing to “recognize sarcasm”. Even though earlier in the week, it was my sarcasm that caused you to again ask your wrote and distracting question. Hence, you are not as smart as you think you are.

    Regarding the “error of fact fallacy,” when you are perplexed you look for something as simple as, of all things, a misspelled word, as a cheap trick in an attempt to elevate your status or reacquire your own homeostasis.

    Moreover, the substance of my Post to you was/is to question your veracity and, by extension, your competency.

    As I stated: “A skilled orator, or, attorney seeks to convince, or, change the minds of his or her audience.” All I have read from you are Posts, is that do neither. In fact, I find you meaner than a snake, a hog nosed snake, which at first, blusters and bluffs, then fakes its way out of a jam.

    Curiously, I am almost certain our Politics and interests are similar. But, I flat out don’t like you, neither do many others.

    I find it disappointing that Americans can’t accept their differences in ideology without name-calling. It is just disgusting. Joe Scaroborough is right. This hatemongering that Gingrich advocates has no place in our country, If you don’t agree, say you don’t agree with the policies. That’s it. Be an American and if you say you are a Christian, you need to act like one.

  • mediadoubt

    Note to Mr. Alvarez: comments like “the opposite of freedom” is rather a bit more than “hyperbole.”

    Gingrich’s remarks are illustrative to the extent to which officeseekers on the right have abandoned any pretense of being interested in sensible governing in favor of savaging their opponents in the most extremist terms possible.

    I’m an optimist. I don’t think this is going to work with sensible voters, and as a result, 2012 is going to be a rude shock to the Republican Party.

    JOHNNIE DORMAN,

    Look up the word “fascist”. The last thing a Free Enterprise Capitalist wants, is THE Government controlling the “means of production”.

    By definition, “Fascism” is associated with the Left as in National Socialist Workers Party. (NAZI) Lenin promised the working man control of the means of production, i.e., Socialism, but like Lucy and Charlie Brown, Lenin pulled the football away at the last minute. Ouch!

    Ergo, the Russian people didn’t get the Socialist Paradise they were promised if they participated in the “Glorious Revolution.” Rather, the Russians got Fascism, with he State controlling the means of production.

    So, JOHNNIE DORMAN,

    Throw out those Left wing pamphlets you’ve been reading and tune in to Rush Limbaugh! LOL

    Newt “has been” Gangreene wants to be a serious presidential candidate…. but he doesnt even come across as being ” relevant”. In fact- all the GOP presidential wannabes- are former losers (well most of them anyway).
