Has Richard Engel lost his mind?

[Enrique]

1. he's there to say what he thinks

i just watched it, and your description of what he said is pretty much exactly what he said.

One thing I'm pretty confident of is that Engel actually believes what he said. He knows a lot, and he's worth listening to, but it's still just his opinion and other knowledgeable people disagree with him.

Axelrod's response wasn't bad, but he's no expert and he's obviously biased.

Scarborough, forget about it. Everything he says is a pose. I agree with what he said about drones, but when I hear it coming from him I just hear someone pandering to me. On the other hand, his joke about "I'm glad you didn't die, Richard, BUT..." made me laugh out loud.

Finally, Joe's biggest joke was unintentional, his ridiculous segue to cutting entitlements. The laughter from everyone in the room was well earned.
