Chris Matthews is an evil fool. He needs to be dealt with by the right people.

HINTS: Dark alley; sucker punch; kick in the ass.

Matthews was even more outrageous on Monday, Jan 16 ,when he interviewed former Army Specialist Tony Lagouranis " who has just come forward with details of widespread military abuse of Iraqi prisoners during his tour in Iraq."
Lagouranis accused US soldiers and especially Force Recon Marines of atrocities-without presenting any first hand evidence.
And Matthews wondered if US soldiers were sadists who beat up innocent Iraqis, rubber hosed prisoners and then later executed them.

Discussing the " innocent " Iraqis that the US soldiers arrest and take to Abu Ghraib for interrogation , he said this-

MATTHEWS: And when we bring them in, they just start rubber hosing them or start assuming their guilty?

And later
MATTHEWS: What do we do with people when we determine that they are guilty?

LAGOURANIS: I don‘t know what happens to them once they get to the Iraqi judicial process.

MATTHEWS: Well, do they disappear? Did you ever hear from them later, people that you thought were innocent? ( I guess Matthews thinks they exchange Christmas cards )

LAGOURANIS: I never heard from them later.

MATTHEWS: Are we executing people over there?

LAGOURANIS: ......

So when the force re-con Marines in particular, they were pretty bad in this regard.
They would stay in the detainees home at the time of the raid.
After they had been subdued, they would question them and they would punch them, kick them, broken bones.
I never saw this, but I saw the evidence of it, and I heard the story from many, many prisoners who were coming in. And it was consistently from the Force Recon Marines.

MATTHEWS: Why were they doing it? Were they sadistic or they were afraid? What would motivate a soldier, a U.S. soldier, to beat up somebody?

He's really getting on my last nerve.

He cannot possibly be as dumb as he appears, so he is a very dangerous person.

What Chris Matthews has done here is despicable. No surprise from him, though.

It's not only that he is reporting disinformation, also more importantly, imo, it is WHAT he is misreporting (lying about).

To say that the First Lady was speaking for God is a very serious and evil claim.

This whole matter ought to see the light of day!

Please write or call the White House to have them call out MSNBC and Matthews. And please contact MSNBC.

****

"what do you make of this godliness on the part of political figures ........... And now the first lady ................has jumped into the thing and she's talking for God now." -- despicable. Matthews has been a rat for some time now. However this is his lowest so far, even worse than his deplorable treatment of Michelle Malkin last year!

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.

That's true, but Matthews MUST apologize if he has the facts wrong.

What a rat!

***

On last night’s edition of Hardball, Chris Matthews made up a quote that First Lady Laura Bush did not say. Matthews claims that Bush said “God wants us to rebuild New Orleans”, when no such words came out of her mouth. However, Bush did say “she didn’t really think she could speak for God” and then added that she “believes Nagin wants New Orleans to be rebuilt”.

On a various segments, Matthews claimed that Bush said “God wants us to rebuild New Orleans” and questioned several guests about it. One of those guests, adviser of Former President George H. W. Bush’s Strategist Ed Rogers, was called “ignorant” for not knowing this and not commenting on it. Matthews later brought it up when interviewing Mike Allen of Time Magazine, saying that she said the “same thing” as Mayor Ray Nagin did.

This is how the media "tells the truth" without really telling the truth. They do it by omission of relevant facts and context. The absence of information is a tool to lie and the traditional mainstream media has perfected this technique to a science. They do every minute of every day. It is a shameful thing -----

****

Saying this for years:

The old established/liberal/socialist media is America's most ruthless, relentless, and destructive enemy.

A. Huxley: “ The greatest triumphs of propaganda have been accomplished, not by doing something, but by refraining from doing. Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth." — Old Media lives these words.

I gave up on Matthews before the election. His "reporting" on the Swift Boat vets, and John O'Neil, was despicable. We gave him the heave then and there.

I hear you ............ by the way, did you hang around watching his show long enough to see his horrible treatment of Michelle Malkin last year? That also was truly despicable!

Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth. By simply not mentioning certain subjects... totalitarian propagandists have influenced opinion much more effectively than they could have by the most eloquent denunciations. -- Aldous Huxley
