When 9-year-old Annabelle told the hosts of MSNBC‘s “Morning Joe“ she wanted GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney to win the election, the crowd on the show’s live set responded with boos.
“Ooohhh, there you go,” said host Joe Scarborough as the Boca Raton, FL, crowd behind him hollered. “I’m with you, Annabelle. Thank you so, so much. You’re a wise girl,” Scarborough said encouragingly. He then turned his mic to co-host Willie Geist, who defended the girl. “Booing a 9-year-old girl?” he asked. “Clean it up.” Scarborough then yelled something indecipherable to the audience.
“Booing a 9-year-old girl?” added TIME magazine’s Joe Klein, before joking, “A lot of these people must have come down from Philly or something.”
At least this little girl had the benefit of being surrounded by adults who rushed to her defense. Sadly, when a 12 year-old Wisconsin boy defended his family’s Romney-Ryan yard signs, it was his adult bus driver who harassed him and suggested his mother should have aborted him.
These incidents prove just how insensitive, intolerant, and uncaring liberals can be — even to children.
