Scarborough Again Hits the Right (But Ignores the Left) In Newest Politico Column
Carrying his sermonizing from his MSNBC morning show to Politico, Joe Scarborough railed against inflammatory political rhetoric in his latest Politico column – but hit conservative talk while ignoring leftist vitriol. Calling them out by name, as he did recently on his show “Morning Joe,” Scarborough pleaded with conservatives that if they can't be civil out of righteousness, they could at least practice civility for the sake of the Republican Party. “It's time to grow up,” he lectured the Right, specifically pundits Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck. Of course, Scarborough made no criticism whatsoever of inflammatory rhetoric from the Left – such as his MSNBC colleague Ed Schultz, who in 2009 joked about ripping Dick Cheney's heart out and playing political football with it, nor from vicious left-wing dilettante Randi Rhodes , nor from Democrat Rep. Alan Grayson of Florida who called his 2010 Republican opponent ” Taliban Dan .”
