Can you imagine if in 2007 some conservative had dared call Barack Obama the "Little Mister" of anything? The cries of racism would be echoing to this day.

But on his MSNBC show this evening, Chris Matthews didn't hesitate to denigrate Marco Rubio as "the little Mister Firecracker of the bombs-away set." For good measure, Matthews claimed that "Cruz hates as well as any Republican in modern history."

Democrat "dog whistle" meaning dirty Mexican type because "those" people love firecrackers.

If Trump said this, two-thirds of FR would be tripping over their tongues to praise his insight and his scintillating wit.

Paying attention to chrissy matthews is like paying attention to the homeless guy on the corner proclaiming he is Jesus Christ, they are both clearly out of their minds and acting out.

If this were about Democrat candidates on Fox News there would be cries of "obvious racism" since the two candidates he singled out are both Hispanic.

Since he’s an explosives expert now, I dare Chrissie to refer to Clinton as the Mother of all Flatulence Blasts.

That makes no sense at all. Not that I’ve come to expect any from Matthews, but still...

Clockstop...

He's right. Rubio is the choice of the neocon/Cheney crowd.

Want perpetual war? Maybe vs. Russia? Rubio is your boy. The poor man's Lindsey Graham.

No kidding! I can remember watching him years ago when he at least tried to hide his flaming liberal/commie core. Any conservative that is stupid enough to even speak to this idiot should wear a spittle mask!
