The Importance of Watching Morons

  I had a revelation today. I watched the moron and learned the    truth. That was an amazing experience.

 

Joe Scarborough, the Morning Moron was just bringing in the topic of the Tax Bill in the House   and     a stubborn Democratic Congressman appeared   on the screen. You know, one of those who still    keep their dignity. Joe was spinning as usual when that man    said something very remarkable,

 

-           The White House   people   are on the phone with   me and others like me telling us that if   we do not pass that Bill it will be the end of Obama's   Presidency.

 

Ouch! It was as if Joe was hit by a bullet. I never saw a man cringing     in such fear. If he could he would have disappeared from the screen.   He quickly switched the congressman off,   wobbled back and forth and then squeezed a   smile out of himself; that smile came out in a   wrong   place like it happens   frequently with the toothpaste.

 

-           Oh, come on, the Presidency"

 

And   that was   all of it. No discussion, no reference, NADA.   As   if   that never happened.

 

That body language of Joe's told me the truth: GOP really   threatened   Obama's Presidency. During that deal discussions    he    traded   the governing and   the principle for their promise not to oppose him   seriously in Y2012.
