Chris Matthews Hardball: Questioning 'phony outrage' over lipstick (Part 1)

[RightWingHunter666]

Calling a Palin a pig would be a insult to all members of the gene of Sus scrofa domesticus.

[Loejyrrab]

@RightWingHunter666 Hunter, damn it, I wish I would have said that instead of you! Bravo!!

[mrkareem1975]

checkmate.

[sandy78]

Ocassionaly I watch Chris but too much of his program is based on bashing Sarah Palin and FOX news. Not much original on his program.

[RestoreAmerica76]

Its funny Chris will bring on a staff person for the former speaker but he wont just bring on Newt Gingrich. Fact is Gingrich would own Matthews over anything. Just bring on the big guns if you wanna have a debate. MSNBC=No ratings I wonder why?

[feeneythefiend]

Chris Matthews is an entertainer meant to bore you...... thank you corporate, partisian hacks for the useless, brain numbing garbage.

[infoexcavator]

5:50 Matthews drowning on his spittle or someone with a stomach illness.

[iamsilverback]

Wow, where to begin...first of all, Obama didn't "pass the test with all voters". Over 49% of Americans didn't vote for him. I'm sure you problems with general math preclude you from realizing that this is A WHOLE BUNCH OF PEOPLE. And btw, he ain't my president. So go stuff your pet gerbil back up your ass, masterbate to the latest Keith Olbermann tirade, and SHUT YOUR FOUL PIEHOLE.

[lovechild6969]

And Bill O'Reilly is a ...? Chris Matthews at least gets his FACTS right. And he KNOWS what he is saying. You probably know lot about what a shit bag is... Did you smell that?

[watchyourst3p]

owned!

[Boredonthejob]

Republicans use it relentlessly, Their leaders use it, John McCain uses it. His press secretery - WROTE A BOOK- using it.

Wow. My opinion on that one was, knowing that all of that was out there, why the hell would you go anywhere trying to defend that ad?

[xxxxsjdxxxx]

If this was porn, Chris M would have been peter north lol

[cwants]

chris matthews. I really love the way he clears up things, he's not even attacking anyone here, he is putting forward good arguments and reasons and puts you to test, pig issue cleared, thanks to cm.

[ekirent]

This could be an SNL Skit

[CHARG3R]

Chris Matthews is the best moderator ever. He Rocks!

[shadowofmorgoth]

lol that republican guy is the biggest douche in the universe.

[badger5079]

You're allowed to say "My party is full of bunk".

[modernity2001]

hhahaha I feel sorry for anyone who finds themselves on the wrong side of Chris Matthews. All he needs is a whiff of bullshit and you're fucking DONE!

[starlett2005]

I think that Chris Matthews was putting words in his mouth.

[jimitl5]

"I think that Chris Matthews was putting words in his mouth."

What you are saying is that Feehery is too weak and stupid to defend their position. That was the entire McCain Campaign in a nutshell, weak and stupid.

[starlett2005]

That was what I was saying.

[libertarian4u]

im happy obama is our president but he nor any body else can or will fix the economy

[WKaliber1]

i named my son SuperHans

[thinfilmboy]

Chris, you are a god!

[mborgens]

I love Chris (not in a sexual way).

[AaronOsborn2010]

1980buffalo, I like how you think that it's okay to give tax cuts to the rich who don't need them, but suddenly it's Socialist to give tax cuts to the poor that do need them. Care to explain your sad comment?

[1980buffalo]

Poor Chris Matthews!!! With this shameful and scary music video tribute to PRESIDENT Obama, SO HELP ME GOD, he will feel again this thrill going up his legs. With MSNBC, no need to go to Russia. Just for a few minutes, watch Chris Matthews, Rachel Maddow and Keith Olberman, and you will be there. Thats all the difference between journalists and activists. I will definitely vote for the ticket McCain/Joe the plumber. I dont want a SOCIALIST for president. So help me god.

[damnyankeefl]

it's about time someone shined a light on these lying cockroaches. Thank you Chris Matthews. Scum bag right wing jerks. Think you can get away with kind of shit well not anymore jackoffs.

[Jok3rDicE]

OWNED!!!

[contrast27]

watch?v=jj4VK9wVAi0

oops

[notalibertard]

chrissy won't be happy until he's sucking nobama's cock in the oval office a la Clinton/Lewinsky...and you libertard freaks know it!

[thepoliticalpaul]

Joe Biden Drunk! Sarah Palins Joe Six Pack Biden watch?v=NKMDrOsMuPI

[cipher2004]

Chris Matthews layeth the smacketh down on their candy asses!!!!!

[peteykkk]

Chris Matthews certainly is a dumpy, out of shape, flabby A-hole that has no right to be in front of a camera. keep him on radio.

[just1n22]

but he's right

[Pilgrim812]

Sounds like psychological projection to me.

[imgottie]

The top five contributors for Barak Obama are, Goldman Sachs $628,000; the University of California $523,000; JP Morgan Chase $398,000; Citigroup $394,000 and UBS $378,000You can see where Obamas interests will lie expecially during this "free for all" bail out scams for Wall Street.

[imgottie]

Obama recently spent over 500,000 dollars to refurbish his 757 campaign jet, as part of this new design he removed the American flag from the tail. What American running for the president of the United States would remove the symbol that represents our country?

[Slatkaxh]

Mccain talked experience UNTIL the day he pick a woman with even less experience than Barack Obama to be his VICE president. What is worse is the fact that he is OLD and she would in a heartbeat take over for him if he were to die & idk if you've read or seen her record but SHE IS NOT READY for any of this. this is all crap!

[WeylandYutaniInc]

i love watching hardball, excellent political program.

[imgottie]

Barack Hussein Obama, is an eloquently tailored empty suit. No resume, no accomplishments, no experience, no original ideas, no understanding of how the economy works, no understanding of how the world works, no balls, nothing but abstract empty rhetoric devoid of real substance. What has Obama done? Well he wrote two Memoirs about himself, but I think thats what Hollywood does anyway just sink into a vat of endless Narcistic tripe for others to worship.

[DRUNKMUSICIAN]

No understanding of how the economy works? What about McSame who said that the economy is fundamentally sound. The fact that he has less experience is actually a plus because he is less polluted by lobbyists interest. The experience that McSame has is usually centered on declaring war on everyone and working for his corporate masters.

[imgottie]

Drunk boy says "less experience is actually a plus because he is less polluted by lobbyists interest" Your joking right??? Obama took more money from the banking interests than Kerry and Dodd combined while you pabulum puking democrats dogged out Palin for the "bridge to no where" both those liars Obama and Biden were exposed as frauds. FACT: they voted for that very same bridge while shooting down funds to repair a bridge in Louisiana that was destroyed after Katrina.

[Justanotherhuman2]

imgottie ..Idiot, do some research & learn how donations are calculated if you've never donated to a campaign. Obama's donations come from the individuals of companies @ the max of $2300.person, those are totalled as contribution from that company. Others take corporations & lobbyists $.Obama rejects those. He just has a lot more individual contributions. I donated to him so did many of my friends give the maximum individually. A mind is terrible to waste! APPLES & ORANGES in ref to donations!!

[imgottie]

Since you haven't the intellectual capacity to understand my point without me holding your hand.....well, can you say SPANKED!!!

[imgottie]

No understanding of the economy?? As an economic consultant in 1966 Alan Greenspan wrote in the absence of the gold standard, there is no way to protect savings from confiscation through inflation. Gold stands in the way of this insidious process You know nothing little one, when u finally wake up you will still be wetting the bed and crying if you only knew of "economics" and our current situation that dems and repubs both got us in. Do some research on the fed researve or STFU

[DRUNKMUSICIAN]

I was actually commenting on McSame having insuficient knowledge of economics. But you took it as a personal attack.

How did you start speaking of gold? Everyone knows about our monopoly money. But I never mentioned it. I dont know alot but enough to know that we are getting raped financially by the banking cartels.

You seem intelligent enough where I would like to exchange comments with you but you keep taking things personal and making innapropriate remarks "wet the bed, etc...."

[imgottie]

OK no more personal attacks K? how ever let me leave u with this one last quote."since the Federal Reserve was established ninety-three years ago, the dollar has lost 98% of its purchasing power". weather you claim to be a Democrat or a Republican both parties have destroyed this country its time to take it back and make the founding fathers proud. Invest in gold, silver, food, guns and ammo at the bear minimum....God speed

[DRUNKMUSICIAN]

You do have valid points. And I would much rather fight with you against bigger enemies. The question is how we can get the word out. As a republican I intend to take back out party, I respect Ron Paul, and hope we can assist intelligent leaders like him.

[imgottie]

The mainstream news media holds the key and is very irresposible with their hidden agendas as what they think you should hear and what you should not (1984?)People are so dumbed down, research is a hassle for them,and time consuming so they accept what they are spoon fed. Speaking of Ron Paul..."Once you become knowledgeable, you have a responsibility to do something about it."

-Ron Paul

[friction6]

guns, ammo??? it was ok till that part.

[Justanotherhuman2]

Why is it ncessary to invest in guns & ammo? Wouldn't promoting peace around the world, diminish our need for guns/ammo? Or do you instead prefer to enrich the defense contractors/gun producers who support Corporations raping Th

[DRUNKMUSICIAN]

Dude!!! I fucking love this guy

[instinct805]

Matthews is freakin awesome OBAMA08

[bricasrbia]

unfortunately Obama gonna loose.today pools 3 from 10 democrats not gonna vote for Obama because he is black.Shame on you America

[DRUNKMUSICIAN]

Even racist would rather have a black president than a dumb ass old hateful prick who suffers from post traumatic stress disorder

[imgottie]

Hey drunk,Blow out the flame on the shot before you drink it, IDIOT!!!

[DRUNKMUSICIAN]

You must be saying that because my words are like fire, Burning the asses of those who conspire. Those liars have been in the closet so long im going to donate them to the salvation army.

[imgottie]

Is Plagiarism the only way you can attempt to make a point? Go back to your pathetic dreams of dominating the grade school play ground.

Chronic bed wetter I see!!!

[DRUNKMUSICIAN]

Actually I only plagarized the second sentence from a Chino XL freestyle. I would rather use plagarism than angry rantings. By your choice in avatars and screen name you are obviously someone hungup on your insecurities. Work on your self confidence, deevelop some poise, and get off my nuts in the meantime.

[imgottie]

How about you simply scroll by my stuff and not comment. This way, you won't have to tire of my response to your drivel.You really need to flush that estrogen from your system ... it's going to be okay!!!

[TheTRUTHx1000]

Beautiful gave enough line to hang himself!

But once again McCain/Palin08 wins because were talking about this $HIT instead of the stock market crashing,foreclosures,the Iraq war,wars in general,S&l scandals,CEO multi million dollar bonuses,Deregulation,foreign and domestic policy and everyones favorite PRO Life or PRO Choice!!!!!

[4U2TakeBackAmerica]

Chris Matthews needs to find a job. He is a stupid reporter argueing stupid points.

[eccentricXXX]

He's stupid because he's reporting facts?!?!

[redrusty66]

"Lipstick on a pig" is a "saying" that is used in refference to an item or issue that is being redressed but it still the same. JUST like McCain used it. Barak did NOT call Palin a Pig, HOWEVER I will. She is a fascist Nazi Pig who wears lipstick.

[poet6]

You got to be FUCKING KIDDING ME....Lipstick on a pig is a issue. WE ARE THE LAUGHING STOCK OF THE WORLD...Its ALL BULLSHIT....RUSSIA ANS CHINA is going to KICK OUR ASS

[MightyMikeee]

Matthews is the intelligent O'Reilly.

[junilwoo]

Matthews can beat up O'Reilly.

[HitmanActual2007]

haha he just got ass raped

[mopareddie]

Republicans and their double standard!!!

[vidann1]

I love Chris Matthews!

[digitalflame]

WOW!! I've not seen ownage like that since...? well never! Owned doesn't even cover it.. More like Molestation.

[volumedealer1]

Democrats and Republicans are destroying this county.They're both in bed with Corporations.Selling the American People out!

They in no way talk about the subjects that REALLY MATTER.

It's always smear tactics,and avoiding the issues.

Vote Independent!

[trevormail]

Yes, I'll voat for Independent! What are his stances on the issuez?

[volumedealer1]

Chris owned him

[texknowsbullshit]

Chris by his own words "gets a tingle up his leg, everytime he talks about Obama" So here he is masturbateing again. And this time he gets a lipstick conncetion to Obama. What a big mouth creep Chris Matthews is

[shookings]

Christ on a pony, Chris Matthews ripped him a new one! That was beautiful.

[neverendingtuesday]

Owned.

I usually hate chris matthews but damn. If this is what it takes to make people think about it (even Karl Rove said McCain went too far!), then this is what it takes.

[Yankeesx06]

this guy is the opposite of Bill O'Reilly. If u don't like O'Reilly, you will like Chris Matthews.

[settings99]

I watch Fox News because I like to hear what the opposition is saying and spinning. But I caught myself not paying enough attention to what my side is saying. I urge every Democrat and Liberal leaning people to watch MSNBC and stop adding on to Fox's ratings.

[bricasrbia]

this is the reason why i don't watch politics.Lipstick?How many houses mcCain have,who is obama priest,Sindey steal the recipe ,and on and on.this is stupid.tell me about taxes war economy.Who are they kidding?People boycott media use your on judgment.

[Jumperdog469]

silverback... are you older than mccain? dumbass. you do realize that if mccain and obama went head to head in a debate or speech, no teleprompter, obama would wipe the floor with him. wake up

[iamsilverback]

We shall see soon enough. I'm guessing McCain will be the one mopping the floor though.

Obama probably feels this way too, that's why he chickened out of the numerous town hall meetings.

[Justanotherhuman2]

iamsilverbak..........You are an idiot. Obama rejected Town Hall bcuz Rethuglicans can't b trusted, the same way McCain listened to Obama's Q&A in the limo at the Saqddleleback church before his interview. Obama is too smart to be ambushed. p.s. as you saw, Obama wiped the floor with McCain's dunce ass, so did Biden with Palin's unintelligent, intellectually non-curious, stupid ass!!

[Mnangagwa]

That republican strategist was hardballed.

[yserrant]

"WROTE A BOOK!"

lol

I love it.

[RJupiter2]

Chris, your plug has been pulled! Try radio broadcasting and see if any fat cat sponsors sign up? The true test of what America believes and listens to.

[iamsilverback]

Oh Chris, one more thing. (I know you must read these comments because of your enormous ego). Here is the nugget you all have been waiting for. The answer to why Obama isn't connecting middle America...

Obama isn't Christian nor is he Muslim. He has publicly stated "I have accepted Jesus into my life", but he said it almost through gritted teeth. Uh, not real convincing.

Obama is most probably agnostic. No big deal. But, HE LIES ABOUT IT. That is a big deal.  That is a huge deal.

[barneyboo66]

Who cares what religious affiliation Obama does or does not ascribe to? It simply SHOULD NOT be an issue in this country. The U.S. government IS NOT supposed to promote ANY religion. So that no one is favored or disenfranchised. That is one of the things that makes our country great. Why doesn't anyone seem to remember this?!

If Obama is, in fact, agnostic, he would be a fool to admit it because this is one of the most feared positions in this country right now.

[iamsilverback]

Barney, I don't really care what religion Obama believes in or doesn't belief in...what I do care about is that he LIES about it. If your agnostic, then have the balls to be agnostic.

Older voters have the seasoning to understand the importance of this issue. That's why your buddy doesn't pass the sniff test with older (and wiser) voters.

[barneyboo66]

Well, silverback, I had to delete the last paragraph of my reply because of the 500 character limitation. I concluded by saying that if he wants to get elected and change anything then he needs to present himself as Christian even if he is agnostic. It is REALITY that right now that is the ONLY WAY to get elected. You can't govern until you're in office.

BTW, what constitutes "older and wiser" to you? I'm 42 but know a lot of foolish geriatrics!

[iamsilverback]

"You can't govern until you're in office"...very true. Too bad Obama didn't realize that and picked Biden over Clinton.

[trevormail]

Silverback is the very definition of a Concert Troll. Look it up: He's a textbook case.

"I"M not saying XYZ, but I'm *concerned* that OTHER people will think XYZ..."

[iamsilverback]

........yawn......

You aren't in the league of the great silverback. You bore me.

[Justanotherhuman2]

Actually, that's how wrong you were. Obama passed the test with all voters. He just lost the support of the old white bigots stuck in their ways believing they are entitled everything & a Black man has no place being in charge. PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: cOMMANDER IN CHIEF..Yes I shouted. now get over it. NON-BIGOTED OLDER WHITES & OLDER NON-WHITES VOTED OVERWHELMINGLY FOR HIM. Now get over him or go commit suicide.

;

[iamsilverback]

Hey Chris, spare me your new found efforts to be more "issue driven". You blew all street cred. with your constant slobbering attacks against Hillary. Go hump a rock.

Now regarding Obama's lipstick comment, it doesn't matter if it was a direct attack or not. It was simply a horrible choice of words for a candidate losing female voters and Obama knew it right after he uttered the phrase. This gaffe illustrates how rudderless Obama is without a teleprompter. The guy is a dolt.

[bigtexansfan]

That's what I'm talking about!! It's great to see somebody standing up to these republican demons, crooks, and liars, and calling them for that two faced scum they are!!

Obama/Biden 2008!!!

[youfave]

LOve ou for this TRUTH. NEW OBAMA SLOGAN: TRUTH! I SUPPORT PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA 08.

[stewart0312]

Love Chris Matthews. Palin would never have the guts to go on his show the way Obama went on O'Reilly.

[gateway1foeva]

God, I love Chris Matthews!

[ecliptic9]

holy fucken shit. wow. chris matthews and keith olbermann are great. No wonder republicans got them off the air. Fuckers. Everyone should fucken see this video. Go Obama!

[democratatheart]

NBC really did capitulate.....smart people need a blance to the fox news and rush limbaugh...but sadly the conservative mind control monopolizes the dialogue in this country...the right is so powerful it was able to "get" the 2 most honest voices on air. I love Olberman and Mathews!!!

[zackthemack]

god damn,im gonna miss chris mathews

[kapowitsshanee]

TOTAL PWNGE!!!!

obama 08!

[mmm413]

Tweety is just trying to get his journalistic creds back.

[ATrueSriLankan]

Oh shit, that was too good...

[dddsparks]

go get em chris. you rock.

[rokikay]

wow that was the definition of pwnage

[CopyboyVideo]

Hahah - the end of that clip where Chris held up the book cracked me up.

[RonPaulGeorgeRingo]

McCain/Palin = PHONY outrage.

Its one thing (for media) to be present opposing views, but this is clearly a no-brainer. Lipstick on a pig is a VERY common phrase, and one used ALL the time in politics.

These guys take PRIDE in being IGNORANT.

Obama absolutely hit the nail on the head with that line. I cant think of a better way to sum up the Republican establishment (1980 to present day).

[hiwatt65]

Unsurprisingly, the Republicans have turned this election into a Jerry Springer episode.

[primet21]

mcsame took the bait and now looks foolish

[wmchase65]

Most definately McSame as Bush!!!!

[One2Adore]

donlon, I don't think Obama needs to play dirty. That would be stooping to their level. He's doing what he needs to do. Refuting every smear they make on him and pointing out how they are concerned about HIM and not the ISSUES.

[One2Adore]

30 seconds.  6:32 - 7:02!!! CHECK MATE!! Enough said.

[jcfractal]

McCain is running a shameful campaign right now... It saddens me for our country and political system.

[DigitalFat]

pure, unmitigated pwnage.

[yserrant]

Agreed.

[rehctawfin]

Hardball and countdown is not news its a none paid for ad for Obama. How sad he is so small and so not really to lead that they have to do this for him

[showman28]

Big divertion

[Taino187]

NeoCons use CHILDISH tactics to try and sway, manipulate and STEAL elections and Chris Matthews as well as the vast majority of Americans is SICK OF IT! Go get em Chris... w00t!!

[Taino187]

LoL..!! Chris Matthews ROCKS!!

[rw5791]

hey donion,you want obama to play dirty?How about calling the opponent a pig who smells like a fish.Would that work for you?

[donlon79]

I'm voting Democrat but damnit, Barack needs to start playing dirty. This high road shit isn't working. America deserves whatever it gets. Just look at how all these idiots on Youtube took this story and ran with it?!? I think it's awesome how he jammed that guy up though.

[823077]

Thr Republican party think the people in this country are stupid, and their right.

[mpls333]

So sad...so true.

[DarkStarinDC]

Humm... That would be "they're"

[lonelygirll15]

What is really sad? The Republicans who vote with the people who have destroyed this country, and believe their stupid lies. EIGHT YEARS of nothing but lies, and they STILL believe it. Do they never tire of being made fools of? EVER? Do they know how their leadership laughs behind their backs at what CHUMPS they are?

[10sj71]

I've been saying this to the Republican base for a while; they don't see how they're being used and played by their own party and just how much contempt their own party has for them. They cry sexism so they don't have to talk about issues, since they literally have NO answers to 8 years of utter Republican failure. Their BS re this comment is an utter lie. McCain is a hypocrite who made a joke about women enjoying being raped and Palin who mocked Hillary when she mentioned sexism. LIES. GOBAMA

[piggywig05]

CLEARLY Obama was NOT refering to Palin when he used the phrase "lipstick on a pig"!!! I'm shocked that he was even accused!...

[etownrider101]

republicans are getting away with all the lies. Its time some one set them strait. All the poeple that vote republican are ignorant red necks.

[Lungyao1]

Get em' Matthews! Show the Obama haters how STUPID they really are.

[poorlyread]

Wow. It seems as though Chris Matthews has finally taken a class in remedial journalism.

That was awesome: actually lining up the facts and reporting the truth in the face of a politician who lies.

Where was this guy in 2004?

[Justanotherhuman2]

Sadly, in 2004, Chris Matthews was a trusting believer in George Bush and voted for him in 2000 & 2004. Even Chris Matthews can now say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH OF THIS REPUBLICAN BS!!!

[moneyfornewbies]

Matthews says when he sees Obama he gets tingles up and down his legs.

[BrotherJR76]

Just like the GOP and Conservatives get tingles not only up their legs, but down their spines, when the hear, see, and talk of the late Ronald Reagan, so what exactly is your point.
