Amazingly, Joe Scarborough on MSNBC’s Morning Joe seemed to figure out the hypocrisy of the DNC and the White House complaining about undisclosed donors and “special interest” money being supposedly funneled into Republican campaigns. The White House has been going after the Chamber of Commerce and more than once has been unable to come up with any defense or any support to their totally unsubstantiated claims. Alexrod can’t answer, Gibbs can’t answer, and Mika Brzezinski, co-host of Morning Joe certainly can’t answer. Joe brought up something that the rest of the media has blatantly ignored in this debate, President Obama’s ability to raise more money than any other candidate. President Obama has received more anonymous donations, more big oil donations, more big business donations, and more special interest donations than any other politician ever!
The obvious lunacy of the White House pointing fingers at the RNC is something that only one MSNBC host can apparently seem to grasp. Perhaps Joe can talk to the other MSNBC hosts that have shown “rank hypocrisy” when it comes to asking about finances between Republican and Democratic candidates.
An added bonus of this video is watching poor White House tool Mika Brzezinski. Mika can barely stomach what Joe is saying and viewers get to watch the gears turning in Mika’s head as she tries to come up with a response worthy of a White House soldier. The best she can come up with is “If it’s so easy to just reveal where the money came from … it would throw away the question.” Mika, how about asking the White House to just reveal the discrepancies on their visitors’ list? Perhaps you could bring up the fact that we begged Nancy Pelosi to reveal what was in the health care bill before they passed it. Maybe you should investigate how President Obama removed Executive Privilege on President Bush’s term but left it for himself.
What about the confusion from the White House on the possible Internet regulations and cap and trade?
It seems that poor Mika or the rest of MSNBC hosts can’t bring themselves to demand the same amount of transparency from the White House as they do to Republican candidates or organizations.
