Joe Scarborough Behaving Badly: Did He Leave the Set?

[jnthnlck]

Joe - what a childish ass. Rachel's face at 2:31 is classic! "I don't want to be condescending...anyone who's run for office knows..." What Joe doesn't understand is that there was a diverse panel to include viewpoints not just from washed-up politicians like Joe, but fresh voices who are looking from an outsider's perspective like Rachel. What an ass.

[alquida85]

i hate joe he say they dont kno him but he voted for palin and he knew her for 2 weeks lol wat an idiot did morning show get cancelled

[ubgufy2]

The boys are whining because they're getting their ass handed to them by a GIRL!!!!

[SashaTheBrit]

not just a girl.  a lesbian. joe must've been piiiiiiiiiisssssssseddddddd

[chukkufarley]

It looks like Joe couldn't stand being schooled by a female and walked of the set. yeah that is hilarious, but I'm laughing at him.

[Seastorm21]

Ahhhhhh SNAP!

[pippyslongstockings]

Joe reminded me so much of O'Reilly here.

[SashaTheBrit]

nah. he didn't scream at gregory to cut her mike :D

[MichaelWinstonEsq]

Joe is too sensitive and always takes everything personally. That might be why he couldn't cut it in Congress. The whole thing about people not always agreeing with him was too much to stomach. He should grow up...and go back to college.

[Seastorm21]

HEY JOE! Let me help you define these two candidates...McCain=LOSER...Ob­ama=WINNER...Remember Joe, UNITED WE STAND. Lets all get behind our new leader PRESIDENT OBAMA!

[averyj]

This took place during the primary season, so your point is irrelevant to this video.

[Seastorm21]

averyj: If your a republican...Your point is irrelevant...as long as you keep that tin foil hat on.

[averyj]

No, I'm a democrat. Don't be so sensitive.

[camerton]

rachel maddow rocks!

[xxNIKEDAN63bb]

Morning Joe is the worst show on MSNBC. All Joe ever does is whine and cry and brow beat if you don't agree with him......Get a shovel Joe.

[coolmamac]

I agree. He was much better on his evening show. I liked Tucker better than Joe. All he does is tease and bully Mika and the others. When he was off this past week, the show was much better. My mom thinks Willy is the one destined for success.

[MichaelWinstonEsq]

I disagree somewhat. I love Morning Joe, the show. However, it seems like the least intelligent person on the show is Joe himself. The best shows are when Joe is not there and Mika is hosting. Joe seems to take everything personally and throw temper tantrums at his guests.

[xxNIKEDAN63bb]

Agreed

[penguinslovehockey]

lol this sounds like two little kids fighting. "harold, you can tell rachel that..." lol

i feel bad for harold. he lost in an unfair race and an awful commercial campaign was run against him, and now he has to deal with the bitchy joe scarborough

[amyhappens]

Rachel Maddow rocks. She's too gracious at the end with the "we'll settle this over a beer" bit. Joe is a condescending prick and should be called out on that. Go, Rachel!

[upabittoolate]

i bet they're humping like jackrabbits as we speak.

[hkjonus]

the latest comments ive seen from Joe are ridiculous. the "projection" as started! Conservatives accusing the Liberals as having "demonised" their opponents. what crap! which party as called us "unpatriotic" and "america haters" and whatever else, because we disagree with them? They will say/do anything to win but now that they lost, they are accusing their opponents of what THEY themselves have done the past 30 years. LMAO!

[Somai82]

Joe CAN'T engage in crossfire type debates!

[avibard]

Who is the idiot who thinks Joe Scab should keep his job? There must be 100 people who could replace that asshat and make ratings sore. I mean really, wtf msnbc, are you people idiots? Or, just too pro Joe ScaborO? You lose my viewership and many people I know, and your lucky that none of give a rat's ass to call your sponsors-- there's way too many cool places to go and watch interesting people these days.

[Jackiembelle]

Can't stand the constant abuse that Mika takes from Joe. He should be fired. He is a syncophant.

[theHellwithPolitics]

Go Rachel!!

[Jackiembelle]

Couoldn't stand Imus on MSNBC morning and I can't stand Joe. Not fair to Democrats. His personality is horrible. He treats Mika like she's stupid. She is way smarter than he is. I wish he would just leave! I watch CNN and then Fox. Have to know what competition is saying also.

[dylanofwomen]

i don't watch any TV news, i read, watch The Real News

[SirMo]

Joe got owned by rachel.

[JIM1278]

MADDOW IS A RETARD!!!

[GstateBALLER925]

that was a bad move by joe to just leave, and when they went into the screen showing all of them together, joe wasnt there. they obviously tried to cover it up.

[hansumjoe]

aren't there any better looking lesbians that MSNBC could stack the deck with? I haven't seen RM's show, but she seems smart enough to hold her own with some discordant views. I hope she shows that off in her new show instead of interviewing Eugen Robinson and Cynthia Tucker and the like.

[wiggus13]

what a huge ego Scarborough reveals anytime someone calls him out...he is nothing more or less than a typical destructive right winger -runs away from the truth in order to make his lie good another day!

...look forward to the day when he's co-hosting fox and friends!

[FoodCubes]

Notice his panel was gone from the last part. Joe went to go cry in the bathroom.

[maurigiann]

Check out Rachel's face at 2:34 when Joe says "I don't mean to be condescending" she's like ....I'm in deep shit

[aspetwhy]

No dumb dumb....her look was one of "your full of shit"

[euro944t]

I wish Fox had a liberal A-hole spot in the morning.

Faux & Friends just want to hype OBL and bash hollyweird.

[infobugme]

You're despicable!

[Atheeizm]

"I dont do crossfies". Liar and hypocrite.

[osp80]

what's the big deal?they both had a point really

[rdiaz921]

"I don't mean to be condescending..."

LOL, yeah, you do. Joe is a wuss.

Rachel rocks.

[lalamorinello]

Joe is the best thing that MSNBC has going for it. The rest-Matthews, Olbermann, Gregory & Abrams-should just drop trou and let Obama give them the hot man love that they want.

[integral]

Could your brain be any tinier?

[chervilant]

Oh, waaaaaaaaaaaah, Joe. Did you stomp your widdle feet as you exited the soundstage?

[CityzenJane]

Whiny condescending ---- dumb as a bag of hammers and out classed by miles when Rachel's on the set.

Big manbaby.

[JimboTHC]

You guys know Joe has hardly been working because his kid was born 3 months immature, I think he's so pissy cause they aren't giving him more time off.

[GlobalSufi]

I bet Scarborough spends most of his time in those bathrooms!

Go Rachel!~!

[convicted07]

Joe is out of his intellectual league going at it with Rachael. He showed his imaturity and unprofesionalism when he left the set. Joe needs to check his ego at the door especially on somebody elses show and he needs to not be such a wuss.

[Darling137]

Please come back when you know a little more about what you're talking about. Scarborough is a pretty straight shooter and is a frequent critic of Bush, Republicans,O'Reilly and Fox News. He is different from the likes Matthews and Olbermann because he is accurate and constructive in his criticism.

[ThatsmyYokoOno]

So Maddow says no one is asking McCain about his Fla campaign co-chair about bathroom sex? About police entrapment? So she thinks that reciprocation would be not to ask Obama about his spiritual mentor of 20 years? This would be fair? An America hating pastor and a homo in a shitter stall is all the same to her?And off limits??? Her girlfriend and her lesbian community should stop positively reinforcing her horrible lack of reason.

[atheistasylum]

This John Wayne look-alike punk aways acts like this on Morning Joe. They should trade him to FOX for an extra camera.

[JUDASismyHERO]

i like the guy at the end he pisses joe off too. JOE only drinks white wine!!! haha

He's always making joe look like the elitist SOB he is OH im sorry average joe working class cough cough 200k a year my ass.

Im glad its about time. joe is a bitch he thinks everyone is peachy and happy.

But You have to love how those snobby pricks start out by pandering trying to sound middle of the road then toss in their uppity righteous im better than you ideology.

[CityzenJane]

White wine is a favorite of elitist sissy men. He probably likes arugula too.

[euro944t]

Same with O'reilly. Brags that he has never visited a McDonald's, yet what a blessing they are to the ghetto, those dollar menus that feed a family.

Bill Forgets those dollar menus are making poor folks obese from lack of metabolites in fast food.

[CityzenJane]

At least in the ghetto you can get some MUTHERFUCKIN' ICE TEA when you want it.

[euro944t]

ICE TEA ?

code for type of meth ?

[CityzenJane]

hahah good guess.

Google: O'Reilly Harlem Ice Tea

[jemenfoutiste]

Thanks and much respect to you, videocafeblog, for having the integrity to include Rachel's closing conciliatory remark in your clip. It is missing in huffpo and dailykos versions, and while hearing her promise to "hash" things out with Joe over a beer may have blunted my "gotcha" glee a bit, its inclusion is important for what it says about the essential kindness of her nature.

Oh, and yes, he did leave the set. The proof: they were clearly joking about an absent J.S. at the very end.

[richardcirillo]

Rachel responded to this well I thought - a rational and pretty compelling point re the ease with which anyone can be smeared if you accept guilt by association, and the uneveness with which it's pursued.

[shadycadillac]

stupid Joe !

[BelleGuinness]

LOL. Another big-ego male pundit who gets his shorts in a twist when he encounters a smart woman, rather than a piece of Faux Noize fluff who will stroke his ego by playing dumb and demurring to him.

[goodni2]

Totally!!! :)

[CityzenJane]

Seriously...he's one of those guys that cannot handle it when smart women talk back at him. That's why he consistently gets so huffy.

[MrsBrando]

Joe Scarborough gets mad at Rachel Maddow, because she makes him look like a dimwit lacking any sound knowledge on political issues.

Joe likes to disguise his lack of intellect by talking realllly slowly and sounding realllly sure of his words. Doesn't always work.

[Darling137]

I won't deny that Maddow is intelligent and articulate but you clearly underestimate Scarborough. He is both of those things and he has a lot more experience in the political world than she does at this point.

[MrsBrando]

He may have experience, agreed. But he is not intellectual or especially intelligent..that's my opinion.

[Darling137]

Fair enough. Then again I've never considered TV and radio hosts as requiring a particularly high intellect.

[episteme420]

What I cannot wait for is when shows like joe's, Hannity's and Obrian's become outnumbered by the shows of independent thinkers like Olbermann's.

[darthfrylock]

When that happens, let me know what it's like to be watching ice skating in hell....

[Corporations8MyBaby]

OMG! That was very cool. Guys like Scarborough know that their days out in the sunshine are numbered now. Just because he has even features and a soothing voice doesn't mean his big corporate talking points can stand up to a Rhodes Scholar in the new breed of pundit who refuses to lie for money. Joe was actually afraid. He was *QUALIFYING* himself. And for Joe... that means trouble. Why am I so happy?

[josephbnany]

who cares? the world going down the toilet and you ask THAT question...G-d, we truly are screwed.

[josephbnany]

Joe, "you can't hide those lying eyes'....

[quicksite]

Ford -- what a nerk. DLC Clintons, The Next Generations.

[hippieCy08]

Respect for Maddow...gutsy and intelligently informed journalist!

[23slam]

and Joe has more sand in his vagina than Tucker

OMG OBAMA 08!

[23slam]

yes.

Rachel needs her own show.

[josephbnany]

good luck...does MSNBC have any women in prime time? same ole same ole...

[CityzenJane]

guess what...she gets her own show first week in September. She kicks ass. It's nice MSNBC recognizes it!

[ZReaction]

is she lesbian?

[Corporations8MyBaby]

Yes. She talka about her girlfriend all the time on her show. I think it's totally cool! It feels sane to hear people being honest and healthy. I'm left handed so I too know what it is like to be in the 10% minority on something so day-to-day. I think she is a hero to gays and to me for being so real, honest and above the crap. You got a lot of "thumbs downs" maybe you better tell the crowd why you asked.

[ZReaction]

Thanks for clarifying. I had a feeling she was a lesbian, so i asked. It's surprising that you can often tell by just looking.

[CityzenJane]

And a lot of times you cannot...
