Mediaite ^ | 4/3/11 | Matt Schneider

Chris Matthews asked his Sunday morning panel why Republicans derisively use the term “mainstream media” and whether 2012 presidential candidates could be successful if they avoided engaging with the media?

Chris Matthews would be better served asking this question and then looking in the mirror.

I have no doubt that liberalism is a mental disorder. They do not function and think in the real world.

To them, everything is based on emotions and a false sense of feeling good. Logic is foreign to them.

The American media sucks because it is controlled by brain dead traitorous liberals who would sell their mothers to THE ENEMY if it would further their careers and their left-wing political agenda.

His term “Katie Curic outing” answers his own bias. They should be avoided like the plague that they are.

They are brain dead. Who else wouldn’t recognize the disaster we are facing....and they still push the agenda that’s bringing it on. They must think themselves immune to what’s coming.

Chris Matthews would host a “Bangladesh To Help America” fund raising event in 2020 and think it was so nice that Bangladesh was coming to Americas aid and wouldn’t give a second thought to what the hell happened for such an event to ever take place.
