Chris Matthews Compares Sarah Palin To Gaddafi: “She Just Doesn’t Know The World Around Her
Mediaite ^ | February 22, 2011 | Matt Schneider

Posted on 02/22/2011 5:58:07 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

If you thought you heard the last from Chris Matthews today after being called out by Michael Reagan and reviewed by The Washington Post, well think again because today on Hardball he was leading the charge on a brand new Sarah Palin hit parade. With the assist from liberal commentators Cynthia Tucker and David Corn, the subject of tell-all books on Palin was the invitation for Matthews, Tucker and Corn to unleash fire.

Matthews, clearly enjoying the conversation, described the segment as the “candy” of the evening. Tucker agreed and said “I love the fact that this woman is so confident in her ignorance.” In the final moments, after all had a good laugh, Matthews allowed each an opportunity to provide a parting shot at the Mama Grizzly with their answer to his question of whether Palin would be running for President. Tucker adamantly said no, concluding “she’s damaged goods.” Corn waffled a bit, saying “I thought she wouldn’t but then – everytime I read about her, she seems so self-centered that I don’t know how she could pass up this opportunity.”

Matthews though, possibly eager to remind all that on his show no one gets to bash Palin louder than him, in the final thirty seconds suggested that Palin would not run because “I don’t think this carnival act is going to sell.” Furthermore, Matthews jokingly compared Palin to Moammar Gaddafi, since just like him “she just doesn’t know the world around her.” However, just to alleviate some of the anger he might receive from such a comment, Matthews clarified saying “I don’t think she’s as bad as him.” Wow, if you wait long enough it looks like a “nice” thing said about Palin actually could slip through on Hardball.

Sadly, there are those here on FR who agree with them or would use those same "facts" to say that she shouldn't run for president. Why is it that they are still attacking her 24/7 almost three years after the 2008 election? Is anyone still going after Joe Liebermann, John Edwards or Jeraldine Ferraro?

I love the fact that Obama is so confident in his ignorance and that this woman is so ignorant she see’s it in Sarah Palin and not her Hybrid hero.

“I love the fact that this woman is so confident in her ignorance.”

If an ignorant person thinks you are ignorant, that's not a bad thing.

Chrissy is ignorant and it shows. In fact, he's "confident in his ignorance".

Let him keep making a fool of himself.

Last I heard Edwards was in a court case about his sex tape.

It doesn’t really matter what Chrissy said. It’s not as if anyone is listening in.

So the idiot Matthews who can’t locate the Panama Canal on a map, is comparing Sarah Palin to a guy who has butchered his own people and has killed too many people to count..WOW, maybe someone should ask Alan Grayson if there is anymore room at the looney bin he is staying at, I think Matthews needs to be committed

There is some nice tree lined asylum with an empty room all prepared for Chrissy.

Strap that sucker to a board before he hurts himself or others.

The more these politically left clowns attack, the more they help the right to become winners, and themselves bigger losers!
Remember, O’Bammah, Pelosi, Hillary etc. are on their praise list!

I was unfortunate enough to catch this laugh filled Palin bashing fest live. These people are over-the-top-nuts. A President Palin for 8 years would be a great payback to these subhuman rat-twerps.

[Cynthia] Tucker agreed and said “I love the fact that this woman is so confident in her ignorance.”

Translation: Tucker hates the fact that Palin is smart, confident, principled, beautiful, happy, informed, and primed to win the Presidency in '12. In fact, it's making libs even loonier than they already are -- quite a trick.

Crissy Mathews is not only a waste of oxygen; he’s a major contributor of CO2, and hence, a major cause of Global Warming.

Does anyone know what Comcast is waiting for? Surely they knew MSNBC was nothing more than a cesspool of hate when they bought it. Pull the plug now!

If not for hatred, MSDNC wouldn’t have anything to offer.
