Chris Matthews: Obama 'Acts Like There's No Other World Out There' But His

[NATIONALREVIEW] MSNBC host Chris My Thigh is Tingling! Matthews

expressed dismay over President B.O.'s post-election presser on Wednesday, calling him entirely deaf to the millions of Americans who voted against his plan to grant executive amnesty for as many as 6 million undocumented Democrats.

"The people, if you look at the polling, their problem is illegal immigration," he said. "He says, 'I'm going to fix the problem.' He doesn't mean he's gonna stop illegal immigration. He's not going to do anything to stop illegal hiring, which is the magnet for illegal immigration, really. He's going to basically say, 'I'm going to deal with them by giving them green cards.'"

"What bothered me about him tonight -- he keeps talking about common ground," Matthews said. "Damnit, there's very little common ground between left and right! But what there is, is compromise."

"There's something in this guy that just plays to his constituency, and acts like there's no other world out there," the MSNBC host lamented. "And that's going to be a collision at the end of this year like you've never seen. I do believe it's will be waving a red flag in front of the bull. I think Mitch McConnell's headed for a fight with the president."

#8  The agenda for the next 2 years should be restoring Republican brand recognition by putting through good laws and taking credit for them and making Obama and Democrats the party of no if they veto.

#7  Got to agree with Rush Limbaugh. The message of the mid-terms was clear: "Stop Obama's agenda," he and it is destroying the country. Compromise was not part of any message that I have heard anywhere. The Pub victory was more overwhelming than in 2010.

#5  I think Chris knows that there are two different worlds, but understands that the one he and Obama inhabit can't survive a civil war with the other if push comes to shove. There will be no victors, just survivors, of which most will be in the other world.

#3  Apparently Mathews must need a little depression to think clearly. I laughed yesterday listening to obama when he said the GOP and he have common ground with minimum wage. Really? Mathews has a point.
