Scarborough backs up Cheney: "I knew by the second day that America was less safe"

Joe has probally the lowest IQ on cable news, and usually has no clue what he's talking about. Sometimes it's painful to even watch him. I just love some of the looks and eye rolls Miki gives him.

i liked joe better when he was a republican congressman from florida.... he had a lot less influence then.

If in fact the Bush Administration had done the job of running the country well for the past eight years, one of the things that would have been enhanced is the United States Domestic Security. The National Security may be able to defend but an ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure. Why is there no paramount security network that protects domestically and nationally. The country is vulnerable from the inside and America should take steps toward real security and not just combat ability. We as a nation are in the midst of people who will kill not only themselves but us as a symbolic token of appreciation. There is an urgency to rid the United States of harmful entities in every city, town, and rural station. We have prejudiced ourselves against people who could possibly get er done, but we don't address the last president's ineptness to create a comprehensive sustainable model to accomplish the task and they know that attacks are ineveitable.

Power seems to make some people stupid and relaxed. I have yet to see the United States employ the most intelligent. We are still employing are good friends sons and our college buddies which is costing us everything. America is it's own worst enemy right now because we won't admit that we are a nation that exhaust priveledge at any cost. The security of Americans will change when influential people's children are at risk. If there was a strategy, we would have seen it locally by now.

Will any Republicans admit that they are now secretly praying for a terrorist attack? Nothing big, of course... just enough to scare the bedwetters into voting for them again. That's their one best hope to take back the White House in 2012.

Come on now... you know it's true. For years, they accused us of hoping for failure in Iraq... can they now be honest about their own secret longings?

The idea that waterboarding "kept us safe" for 7 years is almost as ridiculous as their arguments against Gay Marriage.

Actually, allowing torture and endless holding of detainees in prisons is making the U.S. less safe.

It puts our people and soldiers at risk of having the same done to them.

Thank goodness these right-wing loons are no longer in power.

They just happen to shout louder. TDB.

Joe sounds like so many frustrated conservatives when they try to defend the leaders of the past eight years.

They all seem similar to Cheney and Bush lost and confused.

Cheney and Bush took 9/11 and turned a tragedy into an excuse for them to go after the oil fields of Iraq.

Bin Laden family members were allowed to leave the United States.

Torture is watching them be protected while there family member who is suspected of this horrific crime is still at large.

I wonder if Joe could explain why we are less safe today then with the approval of Cheney and Bush allowing the family members of Bin Laden to leave the country the day after 9/11.

He's a complete moron. Late into the show this morning, one of the other idiots from politico brought up an article in today's Wall St Journal ("Owned by the Pirate) about the Obama administration's plans to try and regulate the compensation packages and bonuses for Wall St executives so that it's based on performance and deters excessive risk taking when it threatens the economy as a whole. This would include banks that took TARP money and, those who did not. But, down in the 8th paragraph it said that since 2007 the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency had directed a large bank to make changes in compensation practices as well as 15 others to do the same. So, that idiot Scarborough sits there and starts to whine about this without mentioning that part of the story. So, when you see all of the Republicans on tv for the next few days crying socialism, just remember that this started in 2007. When BUSH was in office. Scarborough is a stupid pecker wood.

Joe's been to the crazy side again this week. He has no way of knowing if were less safe, more safe or about the same. I doubt if anyone knows that for sure. But he just knows. Reminds me of one of Stephen Colberts truthiness moments.

I believe it was Mika's father who stated to Joe that he was "stunningly superficial". Res ipsa loquitur -the thing speaks for itself.....

And this is the same moron that now has a place at the Meet the Press roundtable. I assume Russert is spinning.

Oh yeah, Bush kept us so safe. His first 8 months in office he spent mostly at his ranch in Crawford. He ignored the memo about Bin Laden possibly mounting an attack on the US in August of 2001, he lied us into Iraq. I don't know about y'all, but that made me feel super safe for the past 8 years.

So ..what did Joe know on Day 2...??They don't even challenge his outrageous cliam.At least Cheney claims to know intelligence and had access to sensitive information ....Joe knows nothing to support his bogus comment....He should just say he believes his hero Dick Cheney..This insults all the people working on national security that their efforts mean nothing ..only torturing people will keep us safe!!!Who was tortured in November and December to keep us safe just until Jan 20th!!!!?

What a baseless remark. Scarbourough has no credentials in national security. The only committee that even comes close in his short stint as a congressman was Armed Services and he had no role in reviewing or approving national security policy. All he can claim is that he's a right wing talking head and that doesn't qualify him to create statements on the state of our national security in a vacuum.

People need to start taking these idiots to task about there disinformation. It never ceases to amaze me how far the Republi-cons will go to scare people. They have no ideas so they use there sky is falling routine on a daily basis. We can only hope that people out there are tired of the crap being spewed by Republi-cons and there surrogates.

I listened this his radio show this morning and just when I was about to turn it off this caled in from VA. She stated that her sons, son-inlaws and her husband had served in the military and that Joe, Rush and Pat B are ones putting America in danger. She also SLAPPED him with "NONE OF YOU CARE ABOUT OUR TROOPS" If you support turtore on this end that means "YOU COULD CARE LESS IN ONE OF OUR MEN OR WOMEN IF CAPTURED WOULD BE TORTURED!" She went on to say that the only reason you're defending torture is becasue of your political party! I hope someone from here gets that clip and post it. It was a DOOZER!

Hey Joe, was the radar working back in 2000 when Bush took office? How did you feel on 9/12? Please print any comments you made about how you felt less safe after Bush took office. How did you feel after finding out that the Clinton Admin tried to warn the Bushies about OBL and nothing was done? If your radar wasn't working back then, well that probably means you don't know what the heck you are talking about. Just trying to get the ratings up by saying something inflamatory. What a maroon.

Okay, maybe its my imagination, but it seems that the people who dare to challenge Joe on his moronic proclamations tend to disappear from the show's daily roster.

I see Joseph still hasn't had that growth on his right side removed yet. What does she add to the show? She never says anything meaningful. This debate is not about safety. Torture is against the law, period.

Cheney tortured to concoct statements in order to beat the drums toward the Iraq War. Now he and his daughter (shame on him & her) are trying to cover it up.
