Since 2001, when Matthews moved from a thoughtful liberal/Democrat to a full-on partisan?
Chris is drowning and you’re throwing him an anchor? :)
The Nazis were exceptionally and extremely bad for certain groups of people, and bad for most others - theres no way to sugarcoat their evil. The Communists were slightly less exceptionally extremely bad for everyone. It can be well argued that Stalin was overall much worse than Hitler.
The Dem elite would be a little more interesting if they tried trotting out some new cliches. Few now though its just Hitler and Putin puppet. Yawn.
Im not a Chris Mathews fan, but he didnt say anything wrong.
Except the Nazis didnt overrun the Maginot Line. They went around it, rendering it useless.
And none of the hyperventilaters even know this. And obviously neither does Matthews.
History illiterates all.
Actually he did. See post 7.
Bwaaaaa! Thats hilarious! Brilliant!
Matthews is an idiot, and hes a Comcast tool.
With the spittle on his mouth, I figured he was making a move on the husband of mayor Pete Buttsex. Softballs.
This is what happens on Free Republic.
If you make a general comment, somebody is going to let you know they think you are wrong.
If I said, The sky is blue, someone would post a comment that the sky was orange this morning.
The point that Matthews was making was that Bernie had a big victory in Nevada.
He did.
Just like the big victory the Germans had over the French in WWII.
Some people would say or do almost anything to get a new job with a pay bump.
I listened to some of the shows that Matthews hosted. ( It may have been more than one?) It was in the late 1990’s.
A few years later, in talking with a caller who had brought it up, Rush said that after the 2000 POTUS election, things got much more divisive, an so the relationship with Matthews and other lefties had deteriorated.
And all this time I thought 2016 was the best election ever...
“Im not a Chris Mathews fan, but he didnt say anything wrong.”
You are correct. He wasn’t comparing anyone to Nazis, it’s ridiculous.
Actually, I thought it was an apt comparison, if you consider Joe Biden as the Democrats’ Maginot Line.
If I said, The sky is blue, someone would post a comment that the sky was orange this morning.
Makes me want to stop posting replies to anything, at times.
I used to really like Matthews, until 2002 or so.
