Matthews Brushes Off 'Brouhaha': 'I Think Kerry Meant To Go After President'

The MSM troops have begun to rally around their man.
Interviewing Ted Kennedy on MSNBC, Chris Matthews referred to the controversy over Kerry's comments as a 'brouhaha' and a 'rhubarb. Kennedy was of course only too happy to agree, calling the controversy a "diversion" and even casting Kerry as the victim, claiming he is the "target of Republicans" reacting to his criticism of the war.
A bit later in the hour, Matthews flatly claimed that Kerry only meant to say that Bush hadn't studied enough before he became president and thus got us into a mess in Iraq, and later still:
"I think he meant to go after the President."
To quote that great student of human behavior, John McEnroe: "you cannot be serious!"

They never tire of following Kerry around with a bucket and a broom.

Chrissy also said that the Valery Plame issue was too complicated to talk about anymore.
How convenient.

How well did Chrissy Matthews do in college?
Curious minds want to know.

Chris Matthews is spending his entire program lying, trying to rehabilitate Kerry. They have not the love of the truth.

CHRIS, get OVER it--Kerry won't marry you unless you move to Massachusetts!

Is this one college educated too?
To: 3AngelaD
Mr Matthers, and the other Democrat apologists are simply sickening. They will not even consider the plain meaning of Kerry's words. They have to make up an intrepertation to excuse him.
I hope to God this backfires on all these media shills.

After following all this for 2 days, I agree with Matthews. Kerry hasn't handled it well at all though.

Complete.
Deceitful.
Coverup.
Whitewash.
To: governsleastgovernsbest
That's the DNC talking point of the day. Look for Rush to play a montage of these moonbat idiots claiming that Kerry really meant to insult Bush.

I've never watched Matthews again after he dissed John O'Neill of the swift boaters.

Absolutely a joke for analysis. If he believes this he is just stupid. If he is just saying it he thinks we are stupid. But "stupid is as stupid does" and there is no way around that.
