Republican National Committee ^ | October 31, 2005

[RWR8189]

MSNBC's Chris Matthews: "[I]'m Sitting Here Holding In My Hands, A Pretty Disgusting Document, This Is Put Out Not For Attribution. But It Comes From The Democrats, They're Circulating It. I Can Say That." (MSNBC's "MSNBC Live," 10/31/05)

• Matthews: "[T]hen Their Complaint Sheet Against Judge Alito's Nomination. The First Thing They Nail About This Italian American Is He Failed To Win A Mob Conviction In A Trial 20 Years Ago, Or Something Way Back In '88." (MSNBC's "MSNBC Live," 10/31/05) 
   
• Matthews: "In Other Words, They Nail Him On Not Putting Some Italian Mobsters In Jail From The [Lucchese] Family. Why Would They Bring Up This Ethnically Charged Issue As The First Item They Raise Against Judge Alito?" (MSNBC's "MSNBC Live," 10/31/05) 
   
• Matthews: "This Is Either A Very Bad Coincidence Or Very Bad Politics. Either Way Its Gonna Hurt Them. This Document: Not Abortion Rights, Not Civil Rights But That He Failed To Nail Some Mobsters In 1988. This Is The Top Of Their List Of What They've Got Against This Guy. Amazingly Bad Politics." (MSNBC's "MSNBC Live," 10/31/05)  

Matthews: "[The Democrats Are] Trying Not To Put A Signature On It, But I Just Did." (MSNBC's "MSNBC Live," 10/31/05)

Chris didn't really say it was wrong. Only politically stupid.

[Rocky]

This is gonna be so much fun.

[dfwgator]

Maybe the Detroit Lions might win the Super Bowl after all.

Mathews father died suddenly not too long ago. The tribute Mathews did to his Dad the day after was very moving. It seems as if they were a very close family, (Chris is the only dem).


His Dad seems like someone we all would like to have in our family.

Just thought I would throw that in.

[chris1]

OMG. You made my day with that one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chris1]

SSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHH. let them keep it up!

[Arizona Carolyn]

Me, too.... and given Crissies hissy-fits the past few weeks along with Joe's... MSNBC doesn't exist in my house. I'm shocked that he actually said what it says here that he said.....

[chris1]

I am an Italo-Freeper-American and don't know one RAT Italian/American. What a disgrace if there are any.

[Arizona Carolyn]

The one group that has always been reliably democratic voters... just shows how stupid Doctor Dean is... as if we need any further proof.

[Allen H]

The liberals and the media are going to eat each other alive over this. The next few weeks will be VERY VERY FUN!!! 8) The liberals are toast. 8) They're not gaining squat in 06 in the Congress.

[Xenalyte]

Why, Oh, Why Does The RNC Insist On Initial-Capping Every Damn Word, Including The Ones You Don't Normally Capitalize Such As "The" And "And"?

[chris1]

I wish GWB would act more VITO than Fredo.

We can leave the Santino stuff to the RATS.

[Robert A Cook PE]

I notice that even while Chrissy is condemning the demcrats for pushing this document against the judge, HE IS READING IT TO HIS PUBLIC word-for-word from the democrat talking points!

Gee.

I'm glad Chrissy didn't promote the democrat's documents!

[Arizona Carolyn]

Now if the Jewish voters would wake up before '08.....

[Fedora]

Thanks. I've been wondering about Corn lately.

[gov_bean_ counter]

Chris own any horses?

[BradyLS]

Rock bands just don't pull cool stunts like that anymore, do thay?

[nicmarlo]

There's pahlenty in my children's father's family (don't ask me why).....because of them, I always thought most Italians were Democrats....I later learned, to my surprise, there are many Republican Italians. My children's aunt (by marriage) is a Republican....I think she's working on her husband and the rest of the family. : )

[uncbob]

I'll say its because they're consumed with hate and have always had no problems with stereo types as long it they reinforced their positions. Welcome to the Democrat Party.

Yep
I worked with a liberal whose favorite saying was that J Edgar Hoover was a queer as a 3 dollar bill

Local dem committeeman is great for telling black jokes

[Verginius Rufus]

Geraldine Ferraro.

I wonder what part of Italy Alito's family came from, North or South, as well as what part Scalia's family came from. Alito's father came to the US in 1914 as a child with his family. Apparently immigrants from Southern Italy (including Sicily) were treated worse by "old stock" Americans than Northern Italians were. The grandparents of the "progressive" Democrats of today who will bash Alito for being Italian-American and a Catholic probably considered his grandparents to be undesirables who should be kept out of America.
