Scarborough: I’ve Never Heard Conservatives Speak Against ObamaCare Because of Race

Scarborough: I’ve Never Heard Anyone Oppose Obamacare Because of President’s Race (Mediaite)

During Friday’s cup of Morning Joe, host Joe Scarborough took issue with Democratic Sen. Jay Rockefeller‘s claim that some opposition to the Affordable Care Act is driven by hatred of President Obama‘s race.

Rockefeller made such an accusation Thursday during a tense exchange with Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI) over the health care legislation. The Democratic legislator said that many people oppose the law “because they don’t like the president, maybe he’s the wrong color.” Johnson immediately jumped in to blast his colleague for playing the “race card.”
