MSNBC’s Matthews Roots for Birther Candidate Taitz to ‘Bring Down’ California GOP, ‘Tie Her Up Like a Witch at the Stake'
Appearing on the 10:00 p.m. edition of MSNBC’s Countdown show on Tuesday to discuss the day’s primary election results, Chris Matthews expressed his delight that Orly Taitz – a prominent member of the birther movement that pushes the bizarre theory that President Obama was not really born in America – won the Republican nomination for secretary of state in California, and expressed his hope that the fringe candidate would drag down the Republican ticket in the state. Matthews celebrated what he termed a "malignancy" within the Republican party as he openly rooted for Taitz to hurt the GOP:
Keith, we`ve got good news tonight. And that`s the probable nomination of Orly Taitz in California for secretary of state. This is a true malignancy on the Republican party. She will bring down the other two candidates for high office out there. She`ll probably bring down Carly Fiorina, and may well bring down Meg Whitman because she is unacceptable to any reasonable voter.

Only Chrissy could come up with the idea that Orly is a kingpin in the Republican party.
Actually, she lost.
Ooh, he forgot to take into consideration the “unreasonable voters”! Chris, you’re slipping.
He’s reaching.....
He is also openly trying to figure out how they can blame the Gulf Oil disaster on Cheney. Sometimes, I wonder if he is on drugs.
You’re correct and again MSNBC falls short on just about everything including election coverage. Orly Taitz was defeated by former NFL player Damon Dunn, who now goes on to challenge Democratic Secretary of State Debra Bowen.
I love when they bring in the “no reasonable person” or “no thinking person” close as if it’s some kind of “OZ has spoken” magic ending to debate. Here’s some news for you Chris, no reasonable or thinking person would keep pushing policies and solutions that have never worked anywhere they’ve ever been tried. But you do so who’s not reasonable?
Yep, she sure did, but she still got quite a few votes:
RepublicanMapsCandidate Votes Percent
Damon Dunn 1,075,337 74.3%
Orly Taitz 372,490 25.7%
Not all rabid libs need drugs. They just need a screwed up view of the world to keep them stuck on stupid.
Always keep in mind that liberalism = mental disorder. It explains so much...
I saw that! Pretty bizarre thinking.
For Chrissy, BO may be enough of an intoxicant.
If BO wasn’t politicizing everything, they may have brought Haliburton in.
Except that Orly Taitz lost. Nice detective work there, Hutch...
Why is it considered a “bizarre theory” when there is not one shred of evidence to prove he is in fact is a natural born citizen? And lawyers have worked overtime to make sure nothing about Obama’s past is revealed to the public. THAT is the bizarre part of this sad episode.
She got very little if any publicity. Until I saw the ballot I didn’t know she was running for office..how could she win?
