Freep Matthews On Kerry Iraq Documentary
Hardball ^

Posted on 08/17/2004 4:14:47 PM PDT by GarnetGirl04

MSNBC was just promoting a recent segment of Hardball where Chris Matthews accused a Bush campaign official of improperly taking a quote from Matthews show and using it in the GOP's 12-minute Kerry Iraq Documentary. In the interview Matthews talks about, Matthews asks Kerry to sat whether he is an anti-war candidate and Kerry says "yeah."

Now, Matthews is saying this is unfair and that the clip was taken out of context. He's looking for feedback on this issue here. If you watch the whole Kerry Iraq video, you see Kerry's ready to invade in 1998 (even tho Clinton isn't suggesting it), but now he's wittering about how he just meant to threaten to invade, that the inspections should have continued, etc, so it's not rocket science to figure out that Kerry has been all over the place on this issue.

actually, don't. This is an attempt to gain some kind of ratings since he's plummetting into the ground and to try and regain viewers since he lost so much credibility last week with his interview (spitting at) O'Neill

I left a note. That Chris Matthews is a punk for treating John O'Neill the way he did.

I'll never ever watch Mathews again. Or Bill O'Reilly, another lightweight punk.

Just saw it. Matthew's question to Kerry was confusing and long winded; Kerry naturally hesitates. What I don't understand is why the Bushies cropped Kerry's response. Kerry's entire answer would have been just as hilarious.

According to Chris Matthews, all of this Iraq stuff is Scooter Libby's fault. Scooter Libby! I tell you is why America is in the state it is today.

Christerical Matthews is obsessed with the DOD (Cheney, Feith) and with the death spiral of the Kerry Campaign. He knows Kerry is a walking, wishy-washy, flip-flopping, anti-war prevaricator. He knows the Swiftees have Kerry dead to right. He's been absolutely manic the last couple of weeks. He knows his own program is going down in flames. Maybe he's vying for Russert's job on Sunday morning. Or maybe his malaria has reared it's ugly head and he needs some heavy meds.

Im with you!...The wonderful thing about independent/usually conservative thinking is.... WE decide as individuals rather to watch or ignore...Just like our vote..its small, but it all plays out in a "bigger picture"...Let hardboil die a slow and painfull death.... "preaching to the choir"
