Chris Matthews: 'I Hate' the Castro Regime

We conservatives have countless beefs with Chris Matthews. But in contrast with the younger generation of liberals inhabiting MSNBC, the American left at large—and the Oval Office—Matthews is more of an old-school Cold Warrior, and, dare I say it, a patriot.

And so it was that on this evening's Hardball, Matthews flatly declared "I hate" the Castro regime. How many other denizens of the left—from Rachel Maddow to Barack Obama—can you imagine saying the same? Matthews thus aligns himself more closely with Ronald "Evil Empire" Reagan than with Barack Obama, who just today was hailed by Tom Friedman for being able to see America from Iran's perspective.

likely, unfortunately since bambi occupies 1600 penn ave the next few years are going to be rough. I’d love to the the wanker running for potus to state if the s-300’s get shipped to iran, we’re going to pay big oils fracking bills, and gift offensive and defensive missile systems to the Baltic states, Georgia, Ukraine, Saudis etc. Then get the DC elected wankers to terminate any bank/country that does business with Iran, access to the US clearance system and any business working with those countries any access to the us banking system. Even China would stop the crap.

Matthews is a phony. Probably afraid the Castro Regime will make his buddy 0bama look like the fool he is.

He is a phony. But that's not the reason.

JFK hated Castro. Chris loves JFK and views the world through JFK glasses. So Chris is going to say he hates Castro. It's not really about Castro, though.
