Video: MSNBC's Scarborough says GOP 'thrown into civil war' over Iraq

David EdwardsPublished: Friday February 2, 2007

In a broadcast on MSNBC's Scarborough Country last night, Joe Scarborough warned that the Republican Party appears headed for "civil war" over the congressional response to Iraq. Host Scarborough appeared with guest commentators Pat Buchanan, Time Magazine's Joe Klein, and Michael Crowley of The New Republic.

In an exchange with Crowley, Scarborough declared that Republicans were likely to be "divided" for the remainder of the Iraq War. Scarborough addressed White House spokesman Tony Snow's suggestion that you are either with the president on the war or projecting a lack of resolve to America's enemies, by saying that he was "angry at a lot of people in my Republican Party, angry at people that I like very much." He added "I don‘t know how that message doesn‘t tear the Republican Party apart, " and saluted Senator John Warner for backing a resolution that challenged the President's escalation plan.

For the conservative talk show host's last word in the segment, he declared "If you‘re a true conservative, there is no way you can support staying the course in the sight of such failure."
A full transcript is available at MSNBC's website. A clip of the segment can be viewed below.
