UPDATE: The Politico's Ken Vogel wrote the following on his Twitter account about MSNBC host Joe Scarborough: "AL records: $5k Joe Scarborough contrib to campaign in April http://politi.co/a7nTZv & he headlined an Aug FR for county GOP, sezs candidate."

To add to Vogel's tweet, Scarborough is listed as headlining The Tuscaloosa County Republican Party's August 2009 Lincoln-Reagan Dinner. Scarborough is pictured on the website of John H. Merrill for State House; a description on the website states of the picture, "John is pictured here with Joe Scarborough, host of MSNBC's 'Morning Joe.' Joe served as the keynote speaker for the 2009 Lincoln-Reagan Dinner honoring Governor Bob Riley."

From an August 9, 2009, Tuscaloosa News article about Scarborough's appearance at the Tuscaloosa fundraiser:

Joe Scarborough, host of MSNBC's "Morning Joe" political talk show, will be the featured speaker at the Tuscaloosa County Republican Party's

Lincoln-Reagan Dinner on Thursday.

This year's dinner will honor Gov. Bob Riley, who served in Congress with Scarborough in the 1990s. Both men are University of Alabama graduates.

1. I bet he wasnt expected to grovel to the boss ahead of time

2. Scarborough has been totally absent from twitter since KO was suspended

he usually does a non-stop vomit on sports and anything else running around behind his beady little eyes. But he's not doing it now. Wonder why? :sarcasm:

3. What I can't figure out is why wasn't Scarborough's face shown on Jon Stewart's little picture show?

If anyone deserved to be up there it was him.

8. So do I!!

Joey donates 5K and nothing happens, but Keith is suspended for 2,400 each to 3 campaigns???

That makes no sense except to say favoritism.
