eric cantor is a giant douche bag and that's insulting to some douchebags.

[pokermaster54]

you're a moron. The economy was already going down the drain before obama took office. The fact that it has continued to slip can't be blamed on him. It takes time for the economy to turn around. You're either really stupid or really disingenuous.

[blumackfm]

matthews and obama and liberal's douche bags? I think same sex marryin,military hatin,one parent welfare lovin, christian bashing, love everything anti american hosers is more accurate. Oh yeah how'd that election go? IDIOTS!

[lees20022]

It was a rejection of Obama's poliices.

Mathews own poll numbers proves it.

Only 1/5 voted to support Obama policies.

This candidates made it a choice between supporting Obama policies or not.

Only 1/5 said they would vote to support Obama ....Ouch that is a turn around in one year.

I can't do fox news live anymore. I just cant give them the ad time. They had some many dummies on faking like they were "experts" on the middle east and Islam without any degrees on Islam, the middle east. hell the fools couldnt even speak arabic but now all of a sudden they are "experts" quotin from books that muslims dont even take from and just flat out bull shitting. So not helpful. I like maddow because she is good with her research and quick to correct herself. the others r just loud

[taoofmichael]

Just flip back and forth from MSNBC to Fox Snooze to CNN. Then decide who is telling the unvarnished truth. Thats what I do.

I'm going with Mathews and Maddow for the truth. That is what I have decided.

[nuumskee]

covering the news as a op ed tv show doesnt mean he has to follow all the rules a official journalist does. only think he has todo is publicly state his show is a op ed tv which he does often not unlike FOX "news" who wants to pretend they are news network when they are not

[LeGioNoFZioN]

he may not be a journalist but he still covers the news.

[nuumskee]

I wouldnt really call Matthews a "news: person nor would he call himself one to be sure. MSNBC is op ed shows which is fine as they clearly make in known that they are op ed tv "news" and not straight "news" which you would get more from the Jim Lear hour on PBS, your local news, and some CNN before their op ed tv in the evening with Lou dobbs and the crew

[LeGioNoFZioN]

I wasn't defending cantor, he is one of the republicans I can't stand, I was noting Matthews hypocrisy. I expect democrats and republicans to "play politics" but not the journalists and talking heads who interview them.

[Bear5177]

No, I stand corrected. It was 59% of the vote. Oh, and by the way, I wasn't accusing anyone of playing politics. One does not need a degree in political science to realize that Cantor is very clearly playing politics. I guess that's why he's called a politician! I especially love the "rejection of Obama's policies" reference he keeps repeating over and over. I just like to point out those kinds of things. Also, 85% of voters that vote, do not equal, overwhelming rejection of Obama's policies.

[pokermaster54]

I don't even have a TV so how the hell am i supposed to watch CNN without it you batshit crazy moron.

You're probably so far off the deep end that you think climate change is being debated among scientists. Wake up douche bag. There is a reason why only 6% of scientists identify themselves as republicans. It's because they're job is to pursue the truth and your party is more interested in distortion and lies.
