Chris Matthews: Corrects Republican on history facts

[MichaelPAUSA]

Go MSNBC .. Chris is from Philadelphia. Da BEST. Let's hope Comcast's strangle hold on MSNBC doesn't slowly kill these great Journalists. Obermann is back on TV. CURRENT TV along with the "Young Turks". Progressive news & journalism at it's best. To the FACTS & the TRUTH with intelligence to the people. Thier STARVING for it.

[dontchastop]

Did you notice the smarmy looks that appear on the the faces of the two Republicans when Matthews confronts Kingston on his unfair comparison. I wonder if this pair are still in Congress. How pathetic.

[beatlesatshea]

I don't CARE if these Iraqis keep killing each other; so what? These people are TRIBES. They've been killing each other for centuries. Let's back out and let them continue to kill each other "in peace." Spend OUR money on US for a change.

[4135555]

Chris reportedly has stuffed more Gerbils than Olbermann, I for one, do NOT believe that story!!

[cook119]

Chris Matthews is a true American Standing up for what is true.

[juneausucks]

gotta love these moments on msnbc. its the only reason i watch.

[ExhibitMan]

Those who say that if we leave; a civil war is on the road. Well, these are the same people who said that this war would end in 3 months, we would be accepted as liberators and the oil will pay for it.

For fuck sake people, when will this nation wake up?

[ETericET]

@ExhibitMan It's also what we tried to tell people before the invasion started. It's very likey true. Cheney himself said the very same thing in the 90s when he was explaining why bush sr. didn't on to Bagdad. If you crack open a few history books you will find out why. That's your job not mine. Maybe then you can see why people were talking about the Pottery Barn policy at the time . You break it .. you own it.

[jfktwo]

Matthews allow some to speak-nevah? Not unless they are having a thrill up their leg for Barack Obama, then you will have his fulll attention

[Arun999]

you fucking idiot.... do even know how guys like O'reily, Limbaugh, and Hannity conduct their interviews. they wont even let you speak once you start telling factual comments about the failed policies of the Cheney bush admin.

[deveousdevil]

chris matthews just knows how to yell. the guy already said he agrees with him and all he does is keep yelling about something that was already settled.

the guy was talking about one thing, matthews meanwhile only focuses on the other.

*i'm sick of pundits, any pundits.* fox or msnbc.

[NihilisticD]

Why don't they let the Woman speak?

[fuckapotomis]

Because she should be in the kitchen sucking cock.

[mrbriscoe2001]

There were German partisans attacking allied soldiers after World War 2 officially ended;it's Matthews that intellectually lazy.

[truemonolith]

gotta love neocons.

do they actually learn history at all...or just read 2 sentences out of every page?

[yes4me]

I think he should let them speak a little more just to prove they are morons who want to infuriate Americans with more conspiracies on live TV.

[njzen1]

Jack Cafferty and Chris are only 2 people in media with balls. THEY ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

[newyorksalright]

There should be more people like Matthews to call people out on their BS on BOTH sides. I hope MSNBC's ratings plummet for demoting him and Olbermann.

[saosinfreak120]

MSNBC's ratings plummeted because of Matthews and Olbermann. They can's go any lower than they are right now. They should be taken off the air. Give me Oreilly anyday. These two are insuffable boors.

[billabong1299]

Oreilly is a fucking idiot. these guys tell the truth.

[RackedRabbi]

@billabong1299 REALLY?

[nafaidni]

You're a fucking idiot and a liar, saos. You're pathetic. It's funny how you assholes don't do any research, you and your conservatard friends...

Olbermann has 1.3 viewers or so each night on his first run, making him the 7th most viewed news program on cable. He has the #1 most viewed news program on MSNBC and was #10th most viewed in news last year.

Matthews isn't as impressive, but he's the third best on MSNBC, and a damn good journalist, as far as I'm concerned. He got an award for it.

[butterboy24]

Jesus christ! What's the point of having people on your show if you don't let them talk? What a pussy.

[mussman717word]

Butterboy24... you're probably just another dickhead who'll turn around and watch O'Reilley, you neo-con artist!

[butterboy24]

Not at all. I hate Bill O'Reilly. You're a pussy as well you faggot. Why have somebody on the show if you don't let them talk? We can just let you be on the show by yourself. You failed to answer my question and instead attacked me. That's what liberals do.

[pimpster200390]

ok ill explain it to you he is callin them out on their bs..so why let them continue untill they except the fact that what they said was inappropiate and misleadding

[butterboy24]

Why let them continue? I thank you for the "answer" but when you have someone come on your show and you don't let them speak, why have them?

Who here knows what the Iraqi people want? None of us. The troops know so maybe we should ask them if they want us there or not. It sounds like they do.

[Kempenfest]

Germany and South Korea want US/Nato troops there. Do the Iraqi people want US troops permanantly stationed in their country.

[urbanxii]

Matthews is a hysterical, simpering bitch.

[Epic878787]

Didn't McCain explain and qualify the comparison by saying that we need to bring US casualty levels down to a similar level as those in Korea and Germany, and doesn't that satisfy Chris objection?

I wish Chris would play hardball on a smarter field instead of trying to jam home a fantasy gotcha moment about an irrelevancy.
