Hardball - Right Wing Talk Host Blows History Question

Republicans love to trot out the name Neville Chamberlain when talking about the possibility of talking to our enemies. On Hardball, Chris Matthews decided to ask Kevin James, a right winger who invoked Chamberlain's name, to identify exactly what it was Chamberlain did that he objected to. Watch James yell and squirm and do everything except answer the question. The man had absolutely no idea who Neville Chamberlain was.

This is HILARIOUS... just the fact that he came in screaming & yelling like a baby made it clear that he was fraud who was trying to look tough.

This is a PERFECT example of why i LOVE Chris Matthews & Hardball... GENIOUS.

Disgraceful! This man should go hide in a dark corner of the world for the rest of his life.

The Munich Pact, or "Munich Dictate" (if you are Czech) gave Hitler the Sudetenland which was given up as part of the armistice of WWI by Germany. Today that act is known infamously as a failed act of appeasement. Chamberlain, like many of the day failed to see the real intention of the Nazis.

Jesus, I'm right wing but what an arsehole. There is, I hope, nothing inherently right wing and libertarian about "Kevin", he is, in fact, just a reactionary tosser.

All conservatives should be sterilized !!!!!!!!

Kevin James has been caught like this many times so nothings unusual here. He knows how to score brownie points and the fact most Americans know almost nothing about their own history makes it easier. So if Chris were given a piece of paper, more power to him because it was Kevin James who was responsible to know the answer and he didn't. He is one of the most ignorant people I've seen and I think the talk shows schedule him to make Republicans look bad purposefully..
