WOW!! Chris Matthews is against O on Bergdahl issue.


Posted: Jun 6, 2014

It's nice to see that he finally came to his senses.

Disagreement on one issue - NK

does not constitute a complete change in ideology. I guarantee he's still one of those "lamestream liberal pundits" the right gets so much enjoyment from ridiculing and name-calling.

I find quite the opposite... - sm

Gee, I hear more Matthews' own rants on lunatics and racists than I do about comments directed at him. We must watch different TV shows.

I think Chris likes to - hedge his bets

After all, his ratings picked up for awhile and Fox is going down, so he is hoping to get a few converts in his 7 o'clock slot. He comes from a Republican family and grew up working class. Despite what he says now, I have heard tell he actually WAS pushing for the Iraq war (I did not watch him way back then).

Chris' main style is not to let anyone who disagrees with him talk, and to "annihilate" his opposition by impassioned speech over the top of them. Sometimes, when faced with an inarticulate opponent, this exposes them, but all in all it is not pretty to watch, no matter whose side you are on.

The video below is rather lengthy, but when interviewing Colonel Davis you see this brutal style and probably conservatives would applaud it, cutting off all but what he wants to hear with his idiotic self-righteousness. Personally, as a liberal, I will turn down the volume until he senses a change in the wind again.

Chris maintaining his ratings means he needs to hold on to his middle ground, and I believe he truly is more of a conservative, like Tuck Chodd, another one to my mind, and I don't like watching either of them when they get on this particular bent, but at least there is some room for diversity at MSNBC.

BTW, I bet the management/money people of MSNBC love this stuff.

Chris Matthews - Sep 06, 2012
As heard/seen on MSNBC after Clinton's DNC speech: "I always figured that if Bill Clinton landed on Mars. He would know how to do it with them. He would know how to reproduce.

In fact, Andrew Cuomo also used the phrase in reference to Barack Obama, and the fact that Mr. Cuomo and I used the phrase in relation to President Obama ...

Basically, says Obama likes going out in public and making speeches, but he doesn't like the real job of being President - the executive part.  He doesn't like dealing with (other) politicians, he doesn't like the hard work of garnering support for his agenda, exercising and delegating authority, etc. He likes golfing, playing basketball, taking an unbelievable number of vacations, schmoozing with celebrities and being the center of attention.  Perks, yes.  Work, n ...

Anyone see Chris last night? He had a dem and a repub (head of Virginia republic party) on discussing the performance of Obama this past year.  The dem was very reasonable. The repub was negative, negative, negative.  For example, he asked her if banning torture was a good move.  she insisted banning "enhanced interrogation" was a horrible decision.  At the end of the segment he said people were curious as to why he had so many repubs on his show when others on MSNBC did not. ...
