And Cheney hater Chris Matthews goes right along with this outrageous statement. This is from today's MSNBC's hardball, (Video)

Speaking on MSNBC's Hardball with Chris Matthews, House Majority Whip Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.) accused former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and Republican Congressmen of aiding and abetting what he called "terrorism" against Democrats for their support of the enslavement of the American people through the government takeover of healthcare.Clyburn singled out Palin for using "crosshair" symbols on a map of Democrats targeted for defeat on her Facebook page.The Anchorage Daily News reports liberals everywhere are hitting the fainting couches over Palin's rhetoric on Twitter where she urged supporters, "Don't Retreat, Instead-RELOAD!".Clyburn accused his Republican colleagues of aiding and abetting terrorism...

Democratic Rep. Bob Bright (D-AL), votes against ObamaCare, against Cap & Tax, against the stimulus, and he's 20 points ahead.

MSNBC's Chris Matthews: "He is post-racial by all appearances. You know, I forgot he was black tonight for an hour. [VIDEO LINK]

Chris Matthews loves O but he still has his moments. Tonight on Thursdays show (1/7/09) Matthews has Pat Buchanan on and they were discussing McCain's primary problems. Matthews asked Pat: "What is McCain going to do when democrats bring up Immigration Reform this year?" And Pat replied: "He will take a stand against 'path to citizenship'”. So Matthews asks “What about after the Republican primary?” and Pat replies: ”He will keep to that position” and so Chris asks: “What are conservatives going to do, put him in a Cambodian re-education camp to get him to change all his positions?” Then...

Here is video of Chris Matthews attacking Politico for publishing Dick Cheney's commentary...(Video)Chris Matthews asked Politico's Jonathan Martin, "does he have a thing with Politico? Does he have like a hot-line to you guys?" Matthews said to Martin "he uses you like you'd use Drudge or somebody, why does he go to you guys?" Martin responded to Matthews saying "you'd have to ask the Vice President, Chris, I'm not sure, we aggressively report on both sides." Chris Matthews then told Martin "it's not reporting, he feeds you this stuff, I like Politico but he's feeding you guys this crap."

Remember when dissent was supposed to be patriotic? Well, it seems that only applies when a Republican is president. Now that Barack Obama is in the White House, criticism of him is "un-American" and "traitorous." This new "tolerant" view of dissent comes from Joan Walsh of Salon.Com as you can see in this Hardball video from Wednesday. Below is the Walsh money quote but please be sure to also watch the video since it is important to watch as she drops any facade of liberal tolerance and lets her true dogmatic soul reveal itself in both her face and voice...

Here is video of Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu and former DNC Chairman Howard Dean getting into a heated argument on MSNBC's "Hardball." (Video)Landrieu defended Joe Lieberman's concerns over the "health care reform," she said that Lieberman "just has a little different view than many in the party, but actually I understand his view..there are governors like Gov. Dean who wants to eliminate the insurance companies in America." Howard Dean replied "that's obviously not true" and asked Landrieu "Mary I'd like to know why you deny my people the choice to sign up for an alternative, you are forcing us into...

Matthews showed this clip on tonight's episode of Hardball. The show used Matthews voice and dialogue from a previous episode of Hardball and created an exchange between Harry Reid and Matthews. Matthews comment after showing the clip, "am I really that bad?" Watch the clip and you will see why Matthews was not flattered by the portrayal, though he never seems to mind the attention:

Chris Matthews / Bishop Thomas Tobin Washington D.C., Nov 24, 2009 / 03:06 pm (CNA).- On Monday Bishop Thomas Tobin tangled with television pundit Chris Matthews on MSNBC’s “Hardball” about the relation between religion and politics as well as the legal status of abortion. Matthews’ comments, which charged that the bishop has overstepped his authority, were criticized as a “rant” and an “extended lecture.”Bishop Tobin, of the Diocese of Providence has been critical of Rhode Island U.S. Rep. Patrick Kennedy’s attacks on the Church for opposing abortion. Rep. Kennedy recently revealed that the bishop had asked him to refrain...

So apparently Sarah Palin sold over three hundred thousand copies of her book in one day – and as you can guess – they were all purchased by racists. At least, that’s what the sociology professors over at MSNBC Community College believe. Check out Hardball guest Norah O’Donnell, impersonating a talking puffin…

Does Chris "Mr.Tingley Legs" Mathews have a "crush" on Sarah Palin? You decide! I knew it, you knew it … now we all know it. Chris Matthews last night discussing the Oprah/Palin interview, strangely hammers her for going after Katie Couric (which she does not) and then proceeds to not only praise her amazing political acumen, but then suggests she may implode once she gets the nomination. This bite reveals two things: his obvious crush on the girl, and what he fears most, a Palin nomination.

Here is video of Michael Wolff talking with Chris Matthews about Fox News. Michael Wolff said "the truth is Fox is not very popular in this country, it may have great ratings but still we're talking under two million people, it's a really marginal somewhat extreme presence in the United States." (Video)

A petulant Chris Matthews wouldn’t talk about MSNBC’s recent ratings dip during an interview flogging his fawning essay on the late Sen. Edward Kennedy that’s in the November issue of Boston magazine. “Let’s just drop all the conversation about my network,” the “Hardball” host huffed the other day. “I’m not a media critic.” It could be that Matthews got a little hot under the collar because his left-leaning network has been losing viewers. During the recent third-quarter ratings period, Fox News averaged about 2.26 million total viewers in prime time and was up 2 percent from the same time last...

Day after day he condemns the Tea Party Protesters and recently Joe Wilson, now DNC news activist Chris Matthews thinks Alan Grayson is funny, not one word of condemnation of him...I'm doing my best not to cuss here...(Video)

VIDEO: Legal problems aside, former Congressman James Traficant is always a stimulating and hilarious interview. The brash Traficant appeared on Hardball with Chris Matthews and once again suggested he might run for Congress again after serving time in prison. His platform would be to repeal the income tax and abolish the IRS. Said Traficant: "I want to get the IRS. Kick them in the crotch real good."

Average American citizen Katy Abram's impassioned plea against socialized health care, at Senator Arlen Specter's town hall meeting on Tuesday, got her noticed by the "Hardball" producers as her clip was featured on Tuesday's show and she even received an invitation to appear tonight -- complete with the requisite scolding from the program's liberal host. Subbing for Chris Matthews, MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell incorrectly challenged Abram's fear that Barack Obama wanted to move to a single-payer plan.After Abram recalled that, "I heard him say on a quote, on television, that...we will move to a single-payer" plan, O'Donnell rebuked "He never said...

Leave it to Chris Matthews, a former speechwriter to Jimmy Carter, to actually commemorate the 30th anniversary of the former president's infamous "malaise" speech. On Wednesday's "Hardball," Matthews invited on his former bosses from the Carter White House, former speechwriter and now New Yorker senior editor Hendrick Hertzberg and former aide Gerald Rafshoon to mark the event and claim that Carter was vindicated by history as Matthews proudly asserted Carter was "Dead on," about "putting on a sweater, lowering the thermostat," to solve the energy crisis. And Hertzberg did Matthews one better by proclaiming Carter a "prophet." CHRIS MATTHEWS: Rick...

Thirty years after Jimmy Carter's malaise speech, we return to the days of rising joblessness, an unresponsive economy, deference to dictators, gutting the military and an energy policy tilting at windmills... As history repeats itself on the anniversary of the speech MSNBC's Chris Matthews wrote, we wonder if the "Hardball" host, who has worked for four Democratic politicians, is still getting tingles up his legs. The Democratic Party apparently has learned nothing in the past three decades. Will we see a return of the misery index? The only thing that's different is the sweater.
