Joe Scarborough: It's Not the Economy Stupid

[jelisa46]

Yes it did happen because of deregulation

[EatMAndSml]

I hope Rachel gets an urge to run for a senators seat and maybe even for president someday. I love this woman.

[captainhighbury]

Rachel Madcow is typical big mouth penis envy dyke who has to shout to bring her point across.

[EatMAndSml]

@captainhighbury I have to ask, what are your news sources?

[captainhighbury]

@EatMAndSml Well if you can listen how she speaks and if you have half a mind you can determine it by yourself.

[EatMAndSml]

@captainhighbury I asked, "What are your news sources?". However, by the way you were unable, afraid or ashamed to answer such an easy question I CAN determine for myself what opinion shows you watch or listen to. I was only trying to be fair and balanced. Please do not reply, you will get no response from me. Good bye.

[captainhighbury]

@EatMAndSml Again my answer is simple: Listen to what she says in her program and use probably 5% of your grey cells to analyze what she says.

[fretbuzz59]

@captainhighbury And apparently you have to resort to name calling to make no point at all.

[pjicleanair420]

maddow is such a cunt,msnbc=scumbags/brady org=scumbags, why wasnt security there? Lets put the blame where it needs to go. Do we blame rosie o donnells fork for making her a fat disgusting pig? No, we dont, we acknowledge that she is just a huge disgusting beast and leave it at that. Msnbc has not decided to cover the story, but to use it to further their anti-gun agenda. Pure scum in every sense of the word. SUPPORT THE NRA

[catbuffalo]

@pjicleanair420

All right all right your assertions hold no water ok, but you don't have to be so dumb though.

[Arkayem]

Did Joe say it didn't happen because of deregulation? Oh man...I was sleeping on how stupid guy was back then.

[DoTheJebus]

lol joe is a complete moron. I don't always agree with rachel but I have to admit that she is intelligent and sometimes brings up valid points

[liquidsteelwatermill]

"We've got to bring about a fundamental change to our economy, one that's not just about representing Wall Street, but about representing Main Street."

Translation: "We need a Revolution! Workers of the World, Unite! Power to the Proletariat!"

[warjikin]

Joe's face is too small for his head.

[fidobarks]

lord she makes scar look like an ignoramous.

he such a joke in tha biz.

[jchris723]

If this were'nt so true today, I'd laugh my ass off! Joe Scarborough was absolutely wrong about it ALL! DEAD WRONG! I used to watch his show, but lately...I find it "dumbs down" issues and is more of a student union conversation than a news show! I wish Rachel was wrong then! But, as is always the case....she uses facts when she speaks unlike others! lol

[STILLNAKEDBULLWINKLE]

ten percent....wasted spending bill and year and half later and no results. is obama capable of leading the usa out of this recession? we will see........

[KELSCENE]

I love the look on Rachels face while he's talking. She is absolutely itching to put him in his place.

[quikijiki]

lol at all these right wing extremist idiots commenting on this video.

[eager4g]

rachel madcow is hate monger extreme radical left winger hippie who wants to bankrupt this country and make this country communist.this is America not goddamn communist russia bitch or should I say butch?

[janabanana1619]

titans797979...what are you smoking???? President Clinton left office with a budget surplus. I believe the 90's had excellent economic growth. Reagan is the leader in regards to deficit spending, then you can name Bush. Why don't you actually go and read some facts and then post a valid arguement!

[titans797979]

Thank goodness we had Bush as president, We inherited a deep recession from Clinton, Clintons policies of the mortage crisis that caused many economic problems that Bush tried to stop but was shut down by Barney Frank and Chris Dodd, 9/11, katrina, China and India major market growth, terroism which forced us to have more defense and security and 2 wars. All this and a low unemployment and a stable economy, Reagan is considered our best economic president but i think Bush has that title now.

[6SeannaeS9]

@titans797979 wow you really beLIEve that ha ha ha hhhaaaa hhhaaaahhhaaaaa

[CarMoves]

Did Joe just compare Clinton to Bush?

The economy was the best in history under Clinton.

[problem49]

Oh now I get It! The PEOPLE are responsible for the collapse of the economy because they foolishly took advantage of the absurdly cheap mortgage opportunities offered to them because of reckless, irresponsible deregulation. Canada has not experienced a single bank failure, but I suppose Scarborough would dismiss this as a consequence of our freedom-squelching socialistic government.

[petele345]

Wow, Joe is one sharp analyst! His prediction power is about zero. Someone should play this clip during that blowhard's morning show. Even his dumb blond sidekick might be disappointed.

[HeyNonyNonymous]

It's the "blame it on the people" tactic! Somehow, "the people" tend not to vote for the bastards who blame them.

[tacoliqour]

Stunr99 must have bumped his head if he thinks Joe came out as the winner in that discussion. Everything he stated turned out to be as accurate as "mission accomplished"

[Stunr99]

Joe smoked that maddow guy.

[ThatguyNice]

Wow! Joe was WAY OFF! He makes Rachel look really smart.

[Superplatanoman]

Scarborough makes anyone smarts

[GymProv]

Hindsight is 20/20 but Joe looks like a complete ASS right now. A year later and it IS the Great Depression 2. I think he should run this clip on "Morning Joe" in a few days on it's 1 year anniversary! LMAO

[svt0169cobra]

Im suprized myself!! i can't believe he has his own show lol he is and obvious idiot ..just look at some of the other clips on Youtube with him. Rachel has Kicked his ass in issues more times then once... GO Maddow!!!

[appldknwldge]

Thank you for showcasing his complete idiocy. He has been wrong about everything. Yet, he continues with his own tv show. WHY????????

[appldknwldge]

Get this relic off television.

[biggtone75]

Actually people are losing their homes because Frank and Dodd's policies made banks give loans to the same people who knew they couldn't afford them....and now reality is at their door, and they can't pay, and Washington continues to not own up to their part in this housing crisis.

[georgioremy]

he hates poor people. people are loosing their homes because theyve lost income you shortsided richy rich.  i hate this guy. we cant all have a contract on msnbc for our own shows, dik

[georgioremy]

omg, this is geat, it makes him look so stupid!

[instntlyurbiggestfan]

I wonder if Joe feels stupid now that he was SO WRONG about the economy and how the voters would perceive this crisis..

why is Joe on air? I know why.. so we can have even more fun watching Rachel Maddow shake her head in disbelief at his stupidity lol

[STILLNAKEDBULLWINKLE]

@instntlyurbiggestfan msnbc...their ratings suck and no one cares about them

[captainhighbury]

@instntlyurbiggestfan Rachel Madcow shakes head because she doesnt know what to say next to Joe's argument about blame everything on Bush.He is talking about personal responsibility about money and Madcow and Robinson doesnt know what personal responsibility is when it comes to finances. Oh BTW all the Joe bashers He is the only moderate guy on the most biased news channel and only person with knowledge of real world and how its actually governed.

[kenny99996565665]

@instntlyurbiggestfan how bout now?

[CarMoves]

Amazing how wrong Smug Joe was.

Was he running McCain's campaign?

[georgioremy]

he is always wrong, why does he have a show? still the same, he defines his party and he is a yuppy, money loving ass

[captainhighbury]

@CarMoves Why is he Smug?You just hate him cause he is conservative and shutting down your beloved Rachel Madcow.

[CarMoves]

@captainhighbury -- smug because he was dead WRONG.

[captainhighbury]

@CarMoves So you think smug=wrong?I think you are wrong in so many ways here.

You don't even know the meaning of smug and Joe is absolutely spot on unlike you.

Please check the Webster's dictionary for the meanings.

[CarMoves]

@captainhighbury -- Joe said the economy was great -- he was wrong.

Joe dismissed Maddow's points -- she was right.

You really aren't a bright guy, and your silly posts reflect that.

[captainhighbury]

@CarMoves Oh that comes from someone who doesnt even know what smug is.Rachel Madcow is a radical ultra left wing loon ,most probably just like you Joe is much more balanced and unbiased like my self.If you watch Joe's show in the morning everyday he bashes both Reps and Dems for spending and taking economy down to gutter unlike this big mouth hippie Madcow whose sole job is to bash ppl on the center and on the right.If you have even half a mind you will understand what I am talking.

[LitanyCrash]

Joe secretly worships her. He tries to conceal it under that thin veil of pomposity, but you know he beats off to her every night, lamenting her sexuality and his shortcomings not just as a man, but as so-called "pundit".

[rachelmaddowmyhero]

This video shows how naive nad ignorant that piece of trash is

[niknay88]

dude, it was appalling to hear her say 450billion...we are so screwed.

[dantelabon]

Just go's to show that Dem's are ALWAYS right on the economy...proven...over and over...PERIOD.

[Zakdayak]

Interesting because Scarborough takers the opposite position on the Kudlow video. The one onm Youtube where Kudlow blames the poor (really the middle class) for taking out those loans.

[cellular1ai]

Hey Joe, are you still around?

so how's that economy thing turn out? Sill awsome?

[o0zeroeffect0o]

lmao. joe scarborough is a fucking moron

[spartancaptain]

People are trying to give Maddow credit for "predicting" this big downfall. It was obvious that we had done way too much damage allowing just anyone to take on these big mortgages and loans and we are paying for it. Scarborough was just naive in thinking there wasn't going to be consequences. Maddow was just saying what anyone in their right mind was saying before these bailouts. Even Maddow has a mind....Olbermann just won't let her use it very often.

[JRodB]

Wow...Joe turned out to be 100% wrong.

[beaubluenyc]

Scarborough has no eyes...he has no soul.

[mikepresson]

Look at his eyes. He has a problem, or is he evil?

[EasyEs]

Radical deregulation of the financial sector. Or Government pressure to give loans to shaky people saying hey don't worry we'll bail you out. No sympathy for anyone.

[erdanidi]

Thus: The government bails two major banks out TODAY

[freestuffffff]

Scarborough = neo-con shill.

[zona999]

Joe, of course, is right. Meanwhile, Rachel turns right around and lies as she completely misstates what Joe just said. She's a shrill partisan hack with a hatred of facts that don't support her partisan arguments. She exaggerrates, she extrapolates..whatever it takes to twist the facts to liking.

[jpbalkenende]

America is 14th in GDP per capita. Probably the lowest in it's history. You can't exaggerate how horrible the Bush economy is.

[paforbo]

the fact that Rachel is a very bright WOMAN, that can beat the crap at their trade over and over again.

Now he only want dirt thrown at Obama, but not his McCain. OOOHhh how convenient!

RACHEL it is time the the real McCain was exposed! and just like Fox and croonies go after Obama, it is time to go after McCain.

They say just like Clinton, that we already know their baggage, BUT WE DO NOT!!, They have been around long, but WE han't, tell us!

[rick91574]

I think Rachel Maddow should research the Glass-Steagall Act. Then see who repealed the Act............

[psbwalk]

I personally find Rachel Maddow irritating. She may be very smart, her dilivery of her opinions are pushy and overbearing and she lacks any humility.

[TheFitConnection]

Scarborough continually gets schooled by Maddow.

When is that assclown going to realize that Rachel has a far superior intellect and she's going to hand him his ass every single time they tussle on an issue?

[blu3cheez]

he does have a point though, the MBS are the problem right now. They are worth nothing. Why are they worth nothing? Homeowners spent their money and the market changed, mainly, home prices started going down again, finally. They haven't been this high nationally in the history of our country.

[seetv569]

everytime i watch rachel and joe go at it i see that joe gets schooled each time...lol

joe, my friend, leave her alone, you are out of your league dude!!...LOL

[paraxeno]

Welcome americans to the real of 3rd worlders!!!!!!

[SuperNerdFace]

Rachel Maddow makes me laugh really hard: "...that the economy is actually secretly awesome." Scarborough's proposition that Americans essentially "gambled away" their supposed riches in Las Vegas is both ignorant and seemingly farcicle. Scarborough's comments seem like a spoof on what a conservative political analyst might say. If you notice, the other three individuals chuckled when Scarborough commented about Las Vegas.

[Disciple1000]

Joe is a hump, she is right. Bush came in and reversed all the good things Clinton did with deregulation of business and tax breaks for the rich. Just like Reagan did to Carters' enviromental and fuel conservation laws. Look it up and consider how much better off we would be 30 years later. The Republicans had the house and the senate and screwed things up thoroughly taking care of their own. Two oil men steal the election and gas goes from $1.46 to $3.46 and everybody is suprised. Why?

[LaRoucheisright]

Mr. LaRouche is the only leader with a solution to this global financial crisis.

Visit larouchepacdotcom and read the "Homeowners and Bank Protection Act"

Then contribute to the Youth Movement.

[note22]

That's Amazing! That Scarborough can make the argument for a multibillion dollar corporation needing help because it made bad investments, but individuals who have done the same thing have to eat their losses. HUH!?!

Best lunch ever, Scarborough Special. Well....only if you have friends at the FED.

[kryz24v]

Where do you think the "FED" gets it's money? federal income taxes or it has to have more money printed. WTF These so called free market republicans want free profits and socialized losses. give me a break!!! also we all no the Federal Reserve is privately operated, right.

[nilent]

What a lying scumbucket is Joe.

The brokers and the ads all sucked these people into these loans.

It's called a CON JOB.

Yes, of course, the con artist relies on and plays on peoples greed and ignorance:

..but without the con in the first place there would be no theft.

To blame the victims for the crimes (legalized by Bush) of the legally crooked dishonest misleading brokers is evil!

Now the shit hits the fan and the poor taxpayer has to bail out the fucking thieves who ripped us off!!!

[gladiator1010]

How bout...outlaw counterfeiting money...that would stop all these "pseudo-loans" from decimating our financial markets...but noooo that's like telling a crackhead to stop smoking crack....."just one more hit" everything will be better with just ONE MORE $200 billion HIT...then I will overdose and die...see problem SOLVED!

[jordanav]

Joe is the only Conservative I like.

[lifter1204]

Once again, Rachel kicks another conservative ass!

[BrooklynDevious]

Why is No Scarborough being such a doofus when it comes to the economy.

He hated the Bush Administration more than we do and he knows it.

[healuv]

Wow... Joe is more stupid than I thought he was...

[chuchu30]

bullshit joe....my husband lost his job due to outsources jobs to india, and then my job was outsourced as well. you are as a@!hole and i will never watch your show again. i hope your job gets outsourced to someone's dick!

[ho2cultcha]

thank god for rachel maddow! finally someone w/ brains on this idiot show. joe scarorough ought to go campaign for mccain.

[busherbee]

Joe, blame it on the little people, uhuh.

[bennygale]

It is called predatory lending. The sub primes were sold with 'teaser' rates that jumped up after a period of time, several years. Suddenly they could no longer afford their notes.

Many of these people were minorities. Sure, they should have read the contracts through with an attorney, but there should be regulation on such contracts.

The fat cats that are bailed out.

[MrMP81]

The Fed literally needs to be abolished. People look at them as the " Safety net " in which they are, a company messed up, they bail them out.

All those people who took Sub-Primes, tough shit, It should not be the federal governments fault because you failed to read between the lines or hire a lawyer to do it for you. You are responsible for your own actions.

Abolish the Fed, Open up the god damn markets and let it level out.

[JeremyTheBlueDuck]

The invisible hand of the free market is smacking us all around nice and proper.

[immanent]

LMAO. You think this is the free market at work? Maybe you should read some Rothbard or Mises.
