Joe Scarborough went searching for a reason to defend his like-minded, bullying friend, Chris Christie, this morning. Mika followed along like a little whipped puppy.
Joe wanted to know why Obama escaped scrutiny on the IRS scandal and on Benghazi but Christie was getting blamed for all this stuff over the bridge lane closures?
I would suggest to Joe that most folks do not agree with you on Benghazi or the so-called IRS "scandal". But there are few Republicans coming to the defense of Chris Christie on this issue. Most folks see and understand what Christie or "someone" did with the bridge closures. They simply don't buy your version of the Tea Party status with the IRS or your version of Benghazi. They remember the 241 Marines killed in Beirut when your hero, Reagan, was in charge. You sound a bit whiny, I do believe.

(30,058 posts)Also targeted by the IRS but the TP cried and whined, it was also put into place by a Republican in the IRS. Many of the groups targeted was playing on the fringe. The GOP will not give Christie a break, they targeted their best candidate in 2012 simply because he was ambassador to China under Obama. They will target Christie because he talked to Obama after Sandy, the same with Crist in Florida, he shook Obama's hand so he was targeted. Scarborough should call out the GOP for not coming to Christie's aid.
