and then covered it up with a disgraced ME

That shows some real imagination, to suggest Clinton campaign operatives sent this guy on a rampage to divert attention.

it does to 95% towards saying that, and stops just short of it, for
obvious reasons, e.g. lawsuits & blowback.

He wasn't remotely suggesting that Clinton's campaign sent the guy to commit those murders. He was saying that she chose to give her press conference while the media was focused on the shooting in Virginia.

Like I didn't know that. Please.

It' was a smarmy sickening insinuation, NOT that Hillary hired a hit man;
but that the presser timing was awkward. But it's the kind of ham-fisted
smarmy hate-bait that enflames bitter hostility toward Hillary, and she
doesn't deserve that. no fucking way. No candidate does.

If you were being sarcastic, I apologize. It seemed like you were more or less agreeing with the poster who wrote, "That shows some real imagination, to suggest Clinton campaign operatives sent this guy on a rampage to divert attention."

That saying "Hillary used the live on-air murders" as a cover-up, to her political
advantage is ugly, absurd and misleading; when she was the first one on the air
after the tragedy to call for much tougher gun-control laws.

Yes, the innuendo is buried, but it's an ugly undertone that is unwarranted and
designed to gin-up hatred towards Hillary. Not cool in my book.

And I'm a Sanders supporter who detests many of her policy positions.

The confusion was over you seeming to disagree with arcane's point that what Hassle posted was a misrepresentation of what Scarborough said.

Hassle wrote, "That shows some real imagination, to suggest Clinton campaign operatives sent this guy on a rampage to divert attention."

Arcane then replied to Hassle by saying that isn't what was said.

You then replied to Arcane by saying, "Maybe not EXACTLY what he said, but still..it does to 95% towards saying that, and stops just short of it, for obvious reasons, e.g. lawsuits & blowback."

So, it sure seemed like you were more or less agreeing with Hassle that Scarborough was suggesting that "Clinton campaign operatives sent this guy on a rampage to divert attention"

I could see the point HassleCat was making, and I still do.

There is what reporters actually SAY verbatim, then there is
another more subterranean undertone to what they are saying,
which is what HassleCat was taking liberties to decipher.

I still feel HassleCat was in the ball park, but if you and Arcane1
want to take issue with it, that's cool.

Let's just say, I'm standing aside, as the Quakers say.

These people are pathetic.

The White House will often "drop" (or dump) information on a Friday if they don't want it getting a lot of media coverage, based on the idea that people don't watch much news on the weekend.

And Scarborough is basically making that argument, that Clinton chose to have have the press conference when the media was preoccupied. Is he right? Probably not. But he certainly wasn't insinuating that the Clinton campaign hired a hit man.

Obvious effort to put two things together in his viewer's minds.

you continue to suggest that Scarborough was insinuating that Clinton's camp hired a hit man, which is pure lunacy. He really wasn't. It's actually quite clear what he was saying if you listen to the video or read the full text. He wasn't implying anything beyond the notion that Clinton held her press conference when the media was preoccupied. Period.

But I think I may be forgiven for misunderstanding, considering the whole Vince Foster thing.

I disagree with the woman on her policies. She doesn't deserve this friggin' nonsense.

As Sanders et al have been saying, media political coverage is so beyond broken.

as I could tell. I was seething at the moment and might have missed it.

She hates Hillary with a red hot passion.

...a regular, don't recall his name. Everyone else looked smug. Someone whispered something to Joe, because, later, he declared Hillary was a "friend" of his. "Morning Joe" has been on a Hillary vendetta. Joe's hatred for his "friend" shows.

and that politicians know it.

but that has to be one of the dopiest things said in quite a while. Joe Scar's brain has turned to pudding, not that it had far to go.

That whole thing is just BS because Benghazi didn't stick.

Next....

Morning Joe has an agenda........and part of his agenda is to make up sick crap like this and toss it towards Hillary and hope it sticks. Frankly he can go suck eggs.

In other news:

Must think this in order to promote the email crap he knows is going to fail. Of course he has to try to promote the clown car and the more he can promote the email crap the less time he has to try and prop up something for the clown car. Now if he said this he would be in course.

You can't please the Hillary haters.

Take a deep breath and turn off cable. You will live longer!!
