Scarborough fires back at Limbaugh: You put your "testicles in a blind trust" for Bush and "stopped being conservative".

I said earlier that I hoped Scarborough would stand up to Limbaugh and, I am very pleased to say that Joe has responded very well.

I would be careful if I had put my testicles in a blind trust for George W. Bush for eight years.

[...]

There are lot of people on the right that, in fact, did put their testicles in a blind trust for the past eight years and stopped being conservative and started being apologists.

[...]

None of these people on the right understand.

[...]

There is actually a living record of the past eight years. While these people - these so-called conservatives - are such tough mighty guys; "we are going to stand up to big spending" and "he's a socialist", and "he's destroying"...

These are the same people that sat quietly by while Republicans took a $150 billion surplus and turned it into a $1.5 trillion deficit. Now while they were sitting there with their testicles - fourth time - in a blind trust for George W. Bush, I was actually still being conservative. Criticising big spending Republicans for not being concerned and, may I add, being absolutely eviscerated by these same people. "Why aren't you loyal to the president?" These same people that blindly went along during the bailouts, 'cause George W. Bush was doing it. But the second Barack Obama did it? "Oh, he's a Socialist!"

So now I guess what you do to prove that you are a real conservative, because you weren't a real conservative over the past eight years, you call the president names. If that's the new definition of conservative? BOOM! You enjoy it.

You can ramble all you want and shout to your little choir, the problem is it's all in the record. I wrote a book in 2004, right? I predicted this was going to happen. What did I predict in my book in 2004? That if Republicans kept spending the way they did, they would bankrupt this country and they would lose the majority. While you all just sat there saluting blindly. Good job!

Now, that's a response.
