My Reasoning for confronting Chris Matthews

I would have never thought in my wildest dreams that my confrontation with Chris Matthews would be picked up by my fellow Conservatives, but I feel that Matthews peddles disinformation and spin for those who are left of center and over the last four years I have watched with bitterness as those like Matthews have targeted very military that protects their right to speak.

Matthews thought that he would set up Ms. Ann Coulter in an ambush when he had Ms. Elizabeth Edwards to call in and demanded a stop to what she termed as personal attacks against her husband, but her husband and his fellow Liberals have attacked those members of the military who have no microphone or camera to defend their honor and integrity. John Edwards has often spoken about two Americas, but it seems he wants two Americas himself in which he can attack, attack and attack not only their political opponents he disagrees with, but those in the military as well without need for standards or facts.

As a veteran I took it upon myself to speak out for those who are out fighting and dying for this nation. It does not matter that I no longer wear the uniform, the fact remains that no matter where I go and no matter what I do, every veteran and member of the military is my brother or sister and I refuse to allow them to come under personal attacks by those who have never worn uniform or who have chosen politics above their one time oath to protect this nation. Matthews is political spin-master for those types who have always looked down their noses at the military. These were the same types who attacked our brave military members, who fought in Vietnam and sought to shame them into believing that their served was not just or honorable and that in the end they lost the war that they were asked to fight. As the son of a Vietnam Veteran I refuse to quietly standby and allow what happen to my father’s generation to happen to mine as they fight and die in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Mr. Matthews sought to blame the Commander In Chief for the mistakes of a few and this shows just how out of touch with reality he and those like him are to the everyday tasking that falls to those who wear the uniform. If Mr. Matthews feels that the Commander-In-Chief is to blame for everything that has gone wrong in the War on Terror, then Mr. Matthews should file to run for the Office of President of the United States and stop hiding behind the cameras of MSNBC.

Mr. Matthews also showed total disrespect for the service of Congressmen Duncan Hunter, who is a Vietnam Veteran and this was reason enough for me to confront him, but for the wife of a politician to use his show to demand that we afford her husband some type of free pass, while he and those liberals like him attack brave Americans who are doing what he would not do, will not be permitted to happen on my watch and I will continue to confront those like Matthews as long as GOD breathes life into my body for I am a warrior and fighting is what I do best.

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: I want you to hear audio. There is video to this. It's available at I think Breitbart.com and LiveLeak.com. I was advised to watch this, and I did, and it's Chris Matthews being berated, if you will, by a black Army veteran after the Ann Coulter show on MSNBC earlier this week.

VETERAN: No, no, no, no, no, I want to know why politicians are off limits, but US troops are not. People who actually put on the uniform, go out and fight and die. Okay, she is calling in and complaining about one person that said something in a book.
Ann Coulter is not elected to the senate, okay, John Kerry is, Dick Durbin is. Ok, and if we want apologies and personal attacks to stop.

MATHEWS: Wait, who has been attacking the soldiers?

VETERAN: Okay, let’s see, Dick Durbin has compared them to the Nazis, "Abu Ghraib is now open under new management." Okay, but our soldiers are not out there blowing them damn selves up, and I as a veteran take a genuine--

MATHEWS: So you don’t think they should have criticized Abu Ghraib?

VETERAN: No, hey, look, policy is made by civilians. Troops only do what they can.

MATHEWS: I'm going to tell you something. This administration has denied that was a policy from the top. I believe it was, you don’t agree.

VETERAN: I believe--

MATHEWS: No, you believe--

VETERAN: Wait, wait, wait. Wait a damn minute Chris, if you want to talk about policy made from the top, let’s talk about the mess made over in Rwanda.

RUSH: Rwanda. This is a black veteran and what his point was, "What are you wasting time here with Ann Coulter? You've got one person." He says, "I'm getting sick and tired, you never criticize politicians. You're always criticizing people out there, one person who wrote something in a book but you don't criticize John Kerry, you don't criticize Dick Durbin. You don't criticize anybody who's elected. Ann Coulter is not elected to the Senate."
Matthews said, "Who's been attacking the soldiers?" What kind of question is that? Who's been attacking the soldiers? How about the entire Democrat Party leadership in both the House and the Senate? What do you call it when you invest in defeat? What do you call it when you say the surge is worthless, when you say that we've lost the war in Iraq, what are you doing?
When you run around and impugn the integrity and the intelligence of enlisted personnel by saying, "Ah, they come from the wrong side of the tracks. That's the only place they can go to get an education. That's the only place they can go to have a future. They don't really want to be in the military," what do you do? How do you not know that the troops are being attacked by Democrats if you host a cable news show, as Chris Matthews does?

Of course this guy fired right back, "Well, Dick Durbin called the troops Nazis," and so forth, and it was Ted Kennedy who said that Abu Ghraib is now open under new management, comparing our running of Abu Ghraib to Saddam Hussein.
Now, this was cool, because this is a veteran who's fed up with this kind of coverage, and he was in the audience, and he sought Matthews out after the show to give him piece of his mind. To Matthews credit he stood there and talked to him. There was a camera rolling, and I think Matthews knew it.

END TRANSCRIPT

How does it feel to be called "cool" by Rush, Trueblackman?

NEVER FORGET

‘HARDBALL’ has been on this Vietnam Veteran’s ‘Turn-Off List’ ever since CHRIS MATTHEWS tried to make his guest ANN COULTER come to tears over her then new book ‘TREASON’..!!!

CHRIS MATTHEWS has always been against the Freedom of others, right down to his leaving, trying to quickly get out of TV Camera range in front of MONICA’s D.C. Condo building, just as she was finally coming out to go to the MONICAGATE Grand Jury to testify.

All items of CLARITY that I was able to share here at the time. Oh, Thank GOD for Freerepublic.com and a Free Internet.

All confirmed when I recently walked out from viewing a CHRIS MATTHEWS-hosted Republican Presidential Candidate TV Debate that went on to be his own national TV personal attack event against RUDY GUILIANI.

For...
..’It’s the TV, Stupid,
...no matter WHO pays for it”..

has always been the CLINTONS’ and their TV attack dogs’ M.O.
