FOR THE RECORD: Chris Matthews' LIES About Laura Bush's Remarks About Nagin

www.freerepublic.com | January 19, 2006

[Howlin]

I don't know about the rest of you all, but I'm sick and tired of so called "reporters" flat out making up news and/or creating stories.

I have searched everywhere and I have not found ONE OTHER source that puts those words in Laura Bush's mouth.

The reason I put this post up is because this has GOT TO STOP -- and until we DEMAND that reporters BACK UP what they say, they'll just keep it up.

So I am going to call him out right now:

Chris Matthews, what's your 'source' on your quotes from Laura Bush????

PUT UP OR RETRACT!!!

[Howlin]

Please get this information to ANYBODY who can get it out!

[One Proud Dad]

Chrisy boy is a moron and cannot spell "retract" much less "source".

[Wolfstar]

Thanks for the ping, Howlin. I hope you're feeling better.

I sent this out to my e-mail list last night and asked them to send an e-mail to MSNBC demanding an apology from Matthews. Haven't heard even the obligatory response from them.

[Howlin]

Better, but this make me FUIOUS........and ILL AS A SNAKE!

[beandog]

Little Chrissy needs to apologize to Mrs. Bush, but he never will. He's going to hide behind his ignorance, which I guess isn't really hiding since he is ignorant.

[Howlin]

We shall see what he does tonight!

[Txsleuth]

Did you send this information to Michelle Malkin???

I bet she would LOVE to confront Chrissy about these remarks!!!

[maggief]

Lying ba$tard!

[Howlin]

No, send it, please.

[jigsaw]

Another example of Free Republic at its best.   Thank you Howlin, YaYa123, and Jim Robinson!

[Wolfstar]

Better, but this make me FUIOUS

Matthews is and always has been a slobbering, fish-mouthed hysteric. He wouldn't know the truth if it jumped up and bit him in the arse.

Didn't you hear?  Ray Nagin is God.

 it was probably sarcasm)

ALLEN: I think a good rule for living—in fact, I just saw this on a billboard the other day—it said “If you want to know what God's thinking, stop talking.”

Fabulous response... wish Matthews and some others would listen. Thanks for the post... I'll be emailing him as well.

I don't know how you can sit through Spitball...
we gave it up years ago...
everyone knows Christine "I joined the Peace Corps 'cause I didn't have the balls to join the Marine Corps" Matthews is nothing but a water carrier for the DNC!

Nagin also said the hurricane that devastated New Orleans was God's way of showing displeasure about U.S. involvement in Iraq.

I believe that Nagin is stupid enough to say something like this, but where and when did he actually say it? If we're taking aim at Chris Matthews for misquoting Laura Bush, it would be helpful to cite the source of Nagin's quote. (Interestingly, in an email exchange this morning, I was asked by the father of a friend of mine, who happens to be a retired editor of a newspaper in the Bay Area, if I have an example of a reporter of hard news who makes things up, or who doesn't check his sources, as I had charged as typical of today's journalists. This example of Matthews' misquote would be a good response.)

"He wants people who lived in New Orleans to come back," Mrs. Bush said.

The word "He" was capitalized, and everybody knows when you capitalize the personal pronouns "He," "His," etc. you are referring to the supreme Deity.
