Others on this blog have described how Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-TX, demeaned his constituents for having the audacity to oppose socialized medicine at a public meeting. (Doggett called their self-expression a “real desperation tactic.”) However, it’s worth memorializing the way the host of MSNBC’s Hardball, Chris Matthews, views those who reject ObamaCare: they’re jihadists. (Snip)
Matthews began: “Everytime a member of Congress or Senate calls a town meeting now, the people show up, and it’s like, I don’t know, it’s like Iran, it’s like the streets of Tehran.”

I have seen no serious opposition yet. Remember the four killed at Kent State? There is just loud debate going on. The national guard had not been called out yet like the liberal revolt against Viet Nam.

“Everytime a member of Congress or Senate calls a town meeting now, the people show up, and it’s like, I don’t know, it’s like Iran, it’s like the streets of Tehran.”How dare 'the people' show up. These staged events were reserved for the rent-a-mobs.

Ah Chris ... you noticed. (This is what we need folks, nice and quiet tea parties with no news coverage doesn’t cut it ... we’ve got to get a little noisy).

“Okay Chris. If it is like the streets of Tehran, does that mean the Health Care protestors represent the voice of the people and the congressmen represent the illigitimate Government?”
Nice analysis and well thought out. I agree. My Tingly Leg is nothing more than an Obamabot and government lapdog.

Hey Chris, like Tehran, when Barry Obamadinejad sends his goons out to crush our silly Tea Parties, it will be all over. Grab your passport and run!

This really reminds me of the conservative “uprising” after the 2000 election...when we finally have had enough!

Memo to Chris,
They are real Americans, not the rent-a-mob sh*tbirds that your side deploys.
Nobody has to do our thinking for us.

Matthews began: “Everytime a member of Congress or Senate calls a town meeting now, the people show up, and it’s like, I don’t know, it’s like Iran, it’s like the streets of Tehran.” What?? The democrats in control are shooting the protesters? Why hasn't that been on the news Chrissy?
To: liesel2000
For once Chris is correct. It is like Iran. The protersters want their leaders to represent their views but the facists don’t like it.
To: liesel2000
OK Chrissy...Tehran huh. So #1) you support the veritcally challenged little tyrant.
@) Your saying we can expect, Storm Troopers riding mopeds to beat up on the Peaceful Protesters. ( not a smart Move)
Are you on drugs or what Chrissy?

Matthews began: “Everytime a member of Congress or Senate calls a town meeting now, the people show up, and it’s like, I don’t know, it’s like Iran, it’s like the streets of Tehran.” prissy chrissy is correct on this one. Only the thread of democracy of our country separates us from the totalitarianism of Iran and the people speaking out against the corrupt government.
I guess little chrissy wants 0bama to respond with tanks and paramilitary thugs too.

That just shows that Matthews has no understanding of what was happening in Iran.
Let's hope we don't have an American Neda.
