(Video)Chris Matthews Uses Death of Russert to Display Elitism
Newsbusters ^ | 14 June 08 | John Stephenson

Posted on 06/14/2008 10:07:30 AM PDT by Jay777

Watch this video where Chris Matthews displays his utter lack of class with Keith Olbermann. While almost every other journalist and blogger on both sides of the political spectrum are giving condolences and highlighting Russert’s deserved credit of being one of the most fair and unbiased journalists of today’s media, Chris Matthews used the opportunity to go off on an anti-war rant. He added insult by comparing him to the “American people” in the sense of being fooled by the Bush administration into supporting the war. Besides displaying how opposite he is than Russert on the subject of bias, he had to go on and add his own elitist touch by presenting himself as a superior journalist.

The Pentagon has confirmed today that Osama bin Laden, Mullah Omar and al Zawahri have been captured and are being held at an undisclosed location.

NOAA scientist have issued a press release today claiming they have found a simple low cost solution to global warming (rumored to have been assisted by algore).

Greek officials report that Natalie Holloway has been found living on a local oil magnate’s yacht.

A UFO has crashed near Ft Wayne Utah, the alien occupants are alive and being cared for by Air Force personnel.

We’ll have these and other stories, but first, out top story; New evidence has come to light that strongly suggests that Bush did in fact lie about WMD’s!

I’m Chris Matthews, let’s play Hardball.

Simply compare the cumulative weight the media is giving this life and passing with the cumulative weight given any 100, or even 1000 soldiers, sailors, airmen or marines - you’d think the pope had died.

Watching it now - Chrissy - saying Russert was hoodwinked by Bush the liar re: reason for going into Iraq war, esp the nuclear weapon risk.

Like ‘every man’ - every patriotic American - the President played on the fears of everyman like Tim Russert.

What Chris doesn’t realize is that in his comments he reveals HIMSELF to be NOT the “real American” type as Tim Russert was...in other words, Chrissy did not even CARE about the fact that America’s national security might be threatened by Saddam Hussein....

go away, Chris

He’s running for the MTP job. Small minds think this way. Pray to God NBC isn’t that stupid.

Some years ago I watched a few of “Spittle Guy” shows, he had no class then ... I hate myself every time I take the bait and watch these video posts of him!

Zell Miller should have brought the pistols and insisted Chris Matthews defend his ‘honor’.

Tim Russert will be sorely missed.

These two pixies, Matthews and Olbermann NEVER will be.

Mathews gets the media game. They all do but they lost a personal friend so they forgot the rules for a couple of days.

“Chris Matthews displays his utter lack of class...”

Over and Over and Over again...

Watching Chris Matthews is like being present in a steamy Turkish bath sitting with hugely fat marbled, hairy lumps wrapped in towels pouring sweat on each other while they discuss all manner of nasty, furtive things.

Won’t these two jerks be vying to replace Russert whom they consider their inferior?

Sad thing is that Chris Matthews doesn’t even know how LITTLE he will be missed when he passes...

Look, I feel for the family, but this guy was nobody special in my book. I think he was drastically overrated and not nearly as smart as he and others made him out to be. He was just another bleeding heart liberal who had no concept of what the real world is like.

The same goes for Chris Matthews, only he is obviously a much meaner and angrier person. He and every other liberal talker are just variations of Michael Moore, and while I do feel for the family’s loss the world as a whole is much better off.

I watched it live last night. Matthews had not been on the air all day because he was sleeping at the time. I was shocked to see just how lame he was going in this direction. I despise Matthews but seriously..I thought he had enough tact in him to just pay respects to Tim and leave it at that with some memories. But nope...he had to get Bush, Iraq and Libby in there.

I mean c’mon...wtf was the point?
