On Wednesday night's "Hardball," Chris Matthews led a not-so-balanced panel of lefties that included Mother Jones's David Corn and Salon's Joan Walsh, in hammering Dick Cheney's concerns, relayed in an interview with Politico, about the Obama administration's softer stance in the war on terror. The "Hardball," host led the attack on Cheney as he charged the former Vice President: "Was wrong in a way that was lethal. 100,000 people dead including 4,000 Americans are dead, something like 15,000 wounded because he was wrong."
Walsh piped in: "We have a situation where it's vintage Dick Cheney. It's dark, it's dire, it's creepy, it's kooky, it's very scary, but there's absolutely no evidence. And so you're right to point to the fact that this is a man who's gotten everything wrong. There was no connection between the 9/11 hijackers and Saddam Hussein. There was, there were no weapons of mass destruction. We were not greeted by a mushroom cloud as the smoking gun. He got everything wrong, thousands are dead and now he's back."
And for his part Corn wondered: "How detached from reality is he?"
Then Matthews, parroting a line his NBC colleague Tom Brokaw made on Inauguration Day, remarked: "He does seem like a character out of 'Dr. Strangelove.'"
The following exchanges were aired on the February 4 edition of "Hardball":

Would they prefer 140,000 Americans dead?
Guess they don’t like the strong effect Cheney’s comments have been having since he left office.
Not as dumb as those watching MSNBC.
When are these nutcakes gonna get over Cheney? They are obsessed with him.
It’s not mentally healthy. It also will give them ulcers.
“Would they prefer 140,000 Americans dead?”
Yes. When you kill 40,000,000 babies without blinking, what is 140,000 more? In the dim mind it is less of a burden on the Govt.
“Idiots”
Well said.
10 million Americans died in the last 5 years.
What’s their point?
(And that doesn’t include the aborted.)
“When are these nutcakes gonna get over Cheney?”
###
Never.
Too white.
Too Christian.
Too gun-loving.
Too direct.
Too pro-military.
Too honest.
To call these people unglued is an insult to the unglued.
There was no need to go to Iraq, but 100,000 (if we accept their figures) terrorists somehow miraculously appeared in a nation that wasn’t associated with terrorists.
You’ve got to truly love the way the left outs themselves for not being able to tie any facts together to come to a reasonable conclusion.
Dick Cheney, you’re the man!
Crissy is a moron. Seriously, he really is. Only the brain dead can listen to him.
The leftist loons have no idea how many hundreds of thousands of people are going to die because 0’s weak-minded policies.
Liberals would blame the 3000+ World Trade Center deaths on Buch nnd Cheney if there was any way to get away with it.
Having lived through WW-II, I shutter to think how many American wartime (inside of the next 20 years) deaths will be directly attributable to Liberal softness on American national defense.

Joan Walsh is such a tired old bag. She’s probably one of the reasons why Salon stock is worth about 99 cents a share.
Who is watching this stuff. People on life support who are being tortured by the nursing staff, addled minded drug addicts while waiting for thier pusher, or maybe some pedophile watches while waiting for the school down the street to let go.
Update: Salon’s stock is worth 35 cents a share today.
They are restructuring. Joanie Walsh will be out of a job soon, like all the other unemployed Americans. BOO-HOO.
