| Obama's Response To Egypt Crisis Makes Chris Matthews "Ashamed As An American" |
| 2011-02-04 |
| Every once in a while when Chris Matthews isn't idiotically railing on Michele Bachmann, and Sarah Palin, and lately Glenn Beck, says something interesting, or at least out of character. Case in point: This morning he popped up on Morning Joe for a Lent segment during which he strongly criticized America's reaction to the Egyptian uprising and Obama's treatment of Mubarak. Wasn't [Mubarak] our friend for 30 years? Are we denying that?...[After Sadat's assassination] we thought things might come apart over there and he held everything together. He was strong....and now we say it's time for the game...Well we should have prepared this 20, 30 years ago. Where is the State Dept.? Don't we have hundreds of people sitting over there in Foggy Bottom with no other job except to know what's going on in Egypt...what are they doing? That was just his warm-up. After this he started taking aim, sparing neither Hillary Clinton nor Obama, whom he accused of being "chillingly" transactional instead of relationship-y. |

| #4 Once in a while you get a glimpse of the Chris Matthews that existed before he sold his soul. Not that he used to be conservative, but at least you could have compared his politics to, say, Joe Lieberman's with a straight face. Now he would have to be compared to . . . hmmm. Bill Maher? Joy Behar?? The "van by the river" character from SNL??? |
