Mad Matthews: America 'Getting Humiliated, Sounds Like We Can't Stop' ISIS
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 02/16/2015 6:24:01 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

If once is an MSNBC aberration, is twice is a trend? Earlier today we reported on Ed Schultz getting surprisingly angry over the fecklessness of the Obama administration's weakness in confronting ISIS, calling the situation a "religious war."

Just two hours later, Chris Matthews sounded a similar alarm, saying "if I were ISIS I wouldn't be afraid . . . the American people are getting humiliated . . . it sounds like we can't stop it." Have we reached a watershed moment among normally dutiful MSM supporters of President Obama?

What’s happening at MSNBC? Earlier today Ed Schultz ripped American weakness on ISIS. Now Chris Matthews does the same. Ping to Today show list.

They only suddenly care because Obama’s poor handling of the “optics” is tarnishing their brand, and they know it.

We have the ability.

What we do not have is the political will to do what it will take...

I believe you may be right. Hillary to the rescue. I know it is fatuous as hell but when did that ever stop the left wingers?

They just want congress to pass that ridiculous use of force request of his with the three year time limit and lord knows what other nonsense is in there to help Iran consolidate its grip on Iraq.

Holy creezus.

Does anyone doubt these frustrated liberal knobs are going to blame the wrong people for this? I don’t. Get the damn popcorn.

America is in danger because the President and Commander-in-Chief, as Col. Peters said, “clearly romanticizes Islam and treats it as if Islam is above all criticism.”

Duh! Even the most slavish sycophants and dumbest ideologues waking up to the reality that evil affirmative action opportunizing narcissism cannot win wars. The world will not bow down and cast aside its evil and make this fraud the emperor of the world because he’s half black.

This must mean that Hillary takes a much harder line against ISIS than Obama, and the MSM is transitioning their narrative in order to mesh with the preferred Liberal Administration.

They’re laying the groundwork for the transition.

Must be.

They’re also laying down a tonal marker:

Obama’s reputation will go into the cr*pper, and this way much later the MSM can allege how much brave antipathy they had for the dastardly unfeeling man, so utterly different from the compassionate and wise, new maverick.
