With "friends" like these...

[BCCL]

Just watched Joe Scarborough, who likes to brag about his A+ rating from the NRA, call people who want "those" kinds of rifles, the "survivalist wing of the NRA" and claim they need "separated out" from the rest.

Is there a transcript/video/audio link available?

There is a letter to the Editor in Sunday's Topeka Capitol Journal from a "hunter" that derides the people who want to own "assault rifles"...
Divide and conquer...:banghead:

Not sure if there is one up yet MErl, he just said it live on "Morning Joe" about an hour ago.

EDIT:Haven't found this morning's stuff, but if you Google "Scarborough Survivalist", he's been tossing these comments for the last few weeks.

Joe Scarborough is a political opportunist. He will say what ever he thinks his masters want him to say. When he was a congressman he pandered to the people in his district to get elected by being "pro gun". If he had been running in an anti gun district he would have been anti gun. Now that he works for MSNBC he says what NBC agrees with just like Bob Costus does.

Scarborough is just another liberal on MSNBC. I don't take anything any of them on that networks says seriously.

 

[ApacheCoTodd]

If that's correct, true and current, the "A+" says more about NRA standards than it does about the talking head.

 

[BCCL]

It was when he was in Congress.

The NRA needs to start lower their ratings for politicians currently in office! Any of the ones from NY that voted yes on their current laws should be a D- at best.

Secondly, J.S. got that rating YEARS AGO. Since then he has proven to be a liberal agenda supporter.
