MSNBC’s Chris Matthews Calls Presidential Debate “Pandering Operation on Israel”
Algemeiner ^ | 10-25-12

Posted on 10/25/2012 5:31:46 AM PDT by SJackson

MSNBC host and commentator Chris Matthews certainly wasn’t happy about Monday night’s presidential debate. In this clip taken moments after its conclusion, Matthews, voices his displeasure at the topics discussed earlier in the evening by candidates Barack Obama and Mitt Romney. First, he criticizes the lack of focus on the Latin American drug trade, and then he also mentions other notable oversights, such as discussion on Europe. Matthews’ major gripe was that Israel played too large a role in the debate. “I was disappointed it was sort of a pandering operation on Israel over and over and over again. Say it two or three times—not twenty times,” he said.

Chris should know. He’s an expert at pandering.

Chris Matthews also said rightwingers ignored his racist label are dangerous and it's a sickness.

"Anybody out there, by there, who thinks we're seeing things, it's over and over again, and if you say we're seeing things you're dead wrong and you're dangerous because people who don't hear it, should hear it," Chris Matthews said on "Hardball."

At the end of the segment, Chris Matthews makes a statement on behalf of all white people.

"Let me tell you something as a white person. I think it's a statement against the white people to talk like this. It has nothing to do with blacks, it's a sickness by the people. Anyway, they ought to be ashamed of themselves. We should be beyond that," Matthews said.

Chris Matthews sets the rules. Pandering to women and minorities - Good. Pandering on Israel- Bad.

I suspect MSNBC will place Matthews on suicide watch on election night.

Who can forget how he spit out the word “neocon” in the days leading up to the invasion of Iraq? I shuddered every time he said it. A bad man.

Something very strange about Chris Matthews, he seems disconnected from reality.

Well the left has made no bones about favoring misogynistic, un-democratic, human rights ignoring, middle east monarchies over the western style democracy of Israel.
So no shocker.

But... ironic that Matthews is complaining about “Israel pandering” as he’s “anti-Israel pandering” to the MSDNC crowd.

With all that’s going on out there, Tingler Chrissie is having a tough time coming up with program topics. Maybe MSNBC’s budget is limited due to their lack of viewers, and he has to limit his travel, or he’s got keepers who are afraid of him doing more damage than he’s already done.

Or maybe, they’re afraid of him hurting himself, and they’re providing the accommodations to the disabled as they’re required to do under the Americans with Disabilities Act by letting him keep his show.
