Chris Matthews - Page 15

As if the MSNBC audience hadn’t already gotten the message, Chris Matthews hammered it home on the 8/17 edition of “Hardball.” Clearly, it is the editorial position of the network that Gov. Rick Perry is a racist.

Chris Matthews has always been somewhat of an enigma. He’s not a good anchor, which is why he can’t draw an audience, yet he remains on the air, which is why I asked long ago whether someone was subsidizing him.

Chris Matthews and NBC News are so intent on promoting the Democratic Party’s talking point that President Ronald Reagan favored tax increases that they plucked a few words from a press conference Reagan gave in 1987 to attempt to make

Rep. Joe Walsh (R-IL) in a feisty exchange with Chris Matthews on “Hardball”.

Via: CHRIS MATTHEWS: Country on the brink. Let’s play Hardball! Good evening I’m Chris Matthews, up in New York. Let me start tonight with the civil war going on in Washington today. It’s not North versus South or even Right

Chris Matthews on Rupert Murdoch. I’ve never seen a media entity talk so much about its competition.

Just a small glimpse into the past week’s “new tone” rhetoric from President Obama, Chris Matthews, Ed Schultz, Joan Walsh, Tina Brown and Josh Marshall.

UPDATE: After Chris Matthews backed out, the creators of the show decided they would take this scene in a different direction that doesn’t feature known pundits. Sorkin and his team expressed interest in having Breitbart on in a future episode,

Continuing the theme set up by MSNBC’s Chris Matthews last night referring to Republicans as “Wahhabis” and “terrorists”, Tina Brown called GOP leadership “suicide bombers” for not raising taxes.

Calling Republicans the “Wahhabis of the American government” wasn’t enough for MSNBC’s Chris Matthews today. In case his audience didn’t fully appreciate the subtle nuance of his message, he reiterated by calling efforts to cut spending, retain the debt ceiling

I have to go cleanse my palette by watching a legitimate interview carried off by someone who doesn’t get the vapors, like Chris Wallace or even Chris Matthews. Lefty Nicole Sandler begins hysterically by starting off with a straw man

We doubt Rep. Bachmann would disagree with this assessment.

CHRIS MATTHEWS: Tonight, Democratic National Committee Chair, Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Welcome, Ma’m. Let’s play hardball. WASSERMAN SCHULTZ: Do me a favor, Chris. Call me Madame Chair, or Chairwoman, or even Chérie. Not M’am, which I find demeaning. MATTHEWS: Ok, uh,

Is this the same Chris Matthews? Maybe the biggest story from last night was not Romney’s cool or Pawlenty’s retreat, but the emergence of a star, Michele Bachmann. She was, of course, created here. She came off as poised, informed,

Perhaps the next time Chris Matthews does a full-length segment on Sarah Palin and Paul Revere, he should mention that his own network’s anchor doesn’t know we had a presidential election in 1964.

“No it wasn’t deceptive, that’s what everybody’s saying about it. I saw the first version of it, and it told pretty much the whole story, of how that woman had gone through an epiphany of understanding how race works.” Related:

The left is always a bundle of contradictions. On one hand leftists set themselves up as the ultimate in “tolerance” and a guarantor of “freedom” to do as one wishes. Most leftists imagine themselves interested in making sure everyone is

My friend Tony Katz came up with the brilliant term “racer,” the definition of which is someone who dishonestly accuses someone else of racism for political advantage. If you watch the clip below of this Sunday’s “Meet the Press,” you’ll

NBC’s Chris Matthews confronted Presidential candidate Ron Paul of racism on Friday, now this. Sure looks like NBC is doing its best to send a message to the GOP candidates for 2012: Criticize Obama at the risk of being labeled

When Mighty Casey struck out, he may have disappointed the fans of Mudville, but he didn’t insult them. He didn’t brand them racists. Or at least Ernest Lawrence Thayer–the poet who immortalized Casey’s big whiff–didn’t mention any such calumnious castigations

Here is Matthews putting the ‘Racist’ label on Trump last night (April 7): Here is Matthews in December 2010: Mr. Trump has asked for the President to release his birth certificate. Four months ago, Mr. Matthews did the same thing.

So the pint-sized pasta-pooper known as Snookie was paid 32 grand by Rutgers University to speak at New Jersey’s largest college. And yes, they have colleges. The inverse candy corn was booked by a student-run group, using money from the

In between watching March Madness and NASCAR I try to spend half hour on Sunday with my favorite lefty talk show host, Chris Matthews. The gymnastics he performs as he tries to protect Dear Leader always makes for great sport.

Just a few weeks ago, the national media wrung its hands about the need for greater civility in our political dialogue. Almost within minutes of that sanctimonious plea, the institutional left launched an assault against any and all perceived opponents.

Appearing on Jay Leno this week, Chris Matthews offered his expertise on a few of the potential Republican presidential nominees. I was really looking forward to some top-notch analysis from MSNBC’s first chair clarinet. Sadly, the “Hardball” pundit merely went

Chris Matthews fashions himself as a well-informed political observer. Why is he so ill-informed of the obvious effects of Mr. Gingrich’s very public conversion to Catholicism?

The further deterioration of the NBC News brand. Why would any GOP Presidential candidate appear on this network in the next two years? This kind of heated rhetoric could inspire violence in some of the more unhinged people on the

The Egyptian people have finally awakened to the reality of decades of oppression, dictatorship, backwardness and extreme poverty. For now, they are united in viewing Hosni Mubarak as the one obstacle to their freedom and democracy — but will they

The appointment by President Obama of Jeffrey Immelt, Chairman and CEO of General Electric, to head the new President’s Council on Jobs and Competitiveness is just another sign of the commitment of the Obama Administration to “Crony Capitalism”. For over
