Matthews: Weiner in Trouble Because He Offends 'Culturally Backward' Christian Conservatives

FULL TITLE: Matthews: Weiner in Trouble Because His Behavior Offends 'Culturally Backward' Christian Conservatives

On Thursday's Hardball, Chris Matthews determined that Democratic Congressman Anthony Weiner could be in danger of being forced out of Congress by Blue Dog Dems who face uphill battles in red states because, as he put it, "people in the rural areas of this country who are Christian conservative culturally - you can say backward if you want...don't like this kind of stuff."

During a discussion about Weiner's chances of survival, after being caught sending lewd pictures to women via Twitter, the MSNBCer claimed the liberal congressman didn't have to worry about his, according to Matthews, culturally superior constituents in New York - the "56 percent in Brooklyn and Queens" who "can live with this guy."

Instead he had to be concerned with his Democratic colleagues fearful about re-election in the "conservative culturally part of the country."

We are culturally backward to not want politicians to show our daughters their Weiner shots?

Why didn’t you share your obama wet thighs to us, Chrissy? Too culturally backward? Why don’t you kneel on a pillow for your shows?

Mr. Matthews, if you're reading this thread, I apologize for spelling your name. wrong.

But if you're reading this, I suggest that you get out of the city some and get to know the unwashed masses better. Despite what Joan Walsh might tell, you we aren't Neanderthal at all. Maybe Cro-Magnon....

Chris is merely saying what all liberals say when one doesn’t agree with their morals or their politics. Unfortunately, there are too many Americans who want to be considered “sophisticates”. Being a rube is the worse thing imaginable.

Weiner's constituency does NOT include significant numbers of Christian conservatives.

More than you think. Some of his colleagues from NYC won reelection in 2010 with better than 90% of the vote. He got 60%.

Part of the reason is that his district includes many conservative Irish and Italian Catholic voters.

A city council district that is largely contained within his Congressional district routinely sends one of the few pro-life GOP councilmen to the City Council.

This simply means Chris Mathews is a perv that likes to unsolicited pictures of his junk to women.

I thought Chris had been on the wagon for some time, now. I think this is what passes for lucid, sober reflection on his part.

Well, Within hours of Weiners declaration before the press that he was lying about sexting and flashing, news reports came out saying that his wife was at home helping him figure out a way to hold onto his seat. Guys, how do you think he met her? She has NO PROBLEM with his behavior. Congressional republicans (male and female)have been largely silent - why?

Because most of them are involved in the same type of behavior - some to a lesser extent and some to a greater extent.

Congress is for all intents and purposes a deviant sex market filled with men and women that act in ways most traditional Americans regard as borderline Satanic.

IMUS: Well, we know that both sides are just — and it’s — but nobody takes Chris Matthews seriously. I mean, I can’t imagine they do.

MCGUIRK: No. Well, nobody watches him.

IMUS: That’s just not — there’s no relevance. There’s no audience, no relevance, and he’s a vile human being. And angry. He’s angry because he didn’t wind up being Tim Russert.

Hey Chris, if that is your version of forward, you can keep it, and I wouldn’t mind staying backward. I also might recommend looking for a group called Alcoholics Anonymous or “Potheads Anonymous”, because it would be good for you to try spending some time with them.

He’s obviously very far out of the mainstream on this. It’s not just us backward Christians who don’t like what Weiner did. Ask his wife.

Chris, Weiner is a digital flasher and a liar, willing to blame everyone else for his indiscretions.

That’s why he is in trouble.

, "people in the rural areas of this country who are Christian conservative culturally - you can say backward if you want...don't like this kind of stuff."

Chris Matthews likes sending and receiving images of naked men. Matthews wants it to be part of what his legislators do for him.

Doesn’t Chris know that Islamists have no tolerance for queers? He would be the first to have his head chopped off.

How about ask whomever he had to tell lies to as well? That’s perhaps the part that doesn’t just affect you regarding an affair. I mean, how would you like it as a person’s associate if that person lied to you about “being busy” when they were actually wasting time with a mistress? I sure wouldn’t.

If enough of the electorate agrees with buffoon, this nation is in even worse shape than I thought.

It reminds me of the “Pr0n” episode of “Friends”. The show and its characters - INCLUDING THE WOMEN - treated “free pr0n” on the apartment TV as no big deal, morally speaking.

It is a HUGE deal.

" Ask his (Weiner's) wife . . .

How do you think Anthony Weiner met his wife? Do you think he just asked her out for a coffee one day? Wooed her with flowers? Dated her in a "traditional" sense?

She is knocked up by what traditional Americans consider a sex offender, a park flasher, a dirty old man, a sex deviant who would gladly, if possible, spend his days masturbating in some skid row XXX rated theatre.

That's the man who is the father of the child inside her body.

She is just a sick or sicker than he is. Probably sicker than him because she publicly supports and enables his pathology.

Think about that for a minute.

Just when you think Matthews can’t say anything more stupid, he outdoes himself. Amazing.
