Who is that idiot on Scarborough?
The little twit in the bottom right-hand corner of the pundit Hollywood squares frame said that the blogs were tearing up Bill Clinton because nothing he said was true. Who is Bob Kohn? He's grasping at straws.

1. He's a nobody who wants to be a somebody; fat chance.

He wrote a book. Bob Kohn, wrote "Journalistic Fraud".

4. Well Lawrence O'Donnel
set him straight. The twit looked like he was going to have a heart attack, whomever he was. Can't take this show anymore.

9. I'll tell you, I'm only worried about one thing:
Back when Clinton was being witch hunted in the 90s, they had these four squares of pundits fighting with each other on t.v., and that's when the shouting fest began and it all became about emotion, and very little substance.

I hope the blogs will help to keep the integrity of the information high, because the pundit crossfire was back in the Barbara Olson days, and back then, the Republicans rallied their base just by keeping the animosity level high.

6. never heard of him
They apparently imported him from an alternate universe, because he knows absolutely nothing about which he speaks.

7. I had to turn the channel as soon as I heard Joe forcing laughter...
After such powerful words from KO about President Clinton's remarks, it was surreal to hear Joe clowning about the same remarks just seconds afterwards!! :mad:

10. We NEED To Write Scarborough For His Completely Assinine
performance!! Anyone have links?? We need to let Mr. Joe know that we now mean BUSINESS and have been out here waiting for this "truth" to be told!

I think it's AS IMPORTANT to write Joe about how completely WRONG he is! Laughing in the face of such serious serious information! That's an OUTRAGE!!!

Turned him off, he was just on right after Keith and when I heard him I just let it run for a little longer. I never watch Scarborough, but he really has me SUPER Pissed!!

Don't let them do it AGAIN!!

12. You know, I think Scarborough is on our side.
A) The Clip was ass-kicking good, in favor of Clinton. And B) Clinton did make Chris Wallace look very small.

14. I think Joe Scarborough wants better ratings and has changed his tune
to keep Kieth's viewers from changing the channel so fast. Bur whatever the reason, he appears to have jumped ship from the SS White House, and I couldn't be more glad.

16. I wrote to "feedback"
Dear MSNBC,

I have come to look forward to Keith Olbermann's show, especially his special comments at the end. He is brilliant, inspiring, and refreshing in his honesty. While every other "host" seems to discuss the same stories with identical points of view (often even parroting the same "talking points"), Keith Olbermann cuts through all that, digs deeper in both facts and analyses, and fearlessly tells it like it is!

The DISservice you do is following Olbermann's profound statements with Joe Scarborough -- tonight forcing laughter over the very same interview with President Clinton that Olbermann had just honored in such strong, poignant terms. It was so disgusting, I changed the channel immediately.

How can the SAME network carry someone as great at Keith Olbermann, and somebody as insipid as Joe Scarborough?

Sincerely,

(Sparkly)

17. Very Good... I Don't think Scarborough Looked Liked He Was
supporting Clinton tonight. I turned it off after the first 10-15 minutes so he may have said something in support. But what I saw was Scarborough doubling over laughing about how bad Clinton looked going after poor little Chris Wallace.

Did my eyes deceive me???
