This was ugly. On his MSNBC show this evening, Chris Matthews criticized Jeb Bush, who will be speaking at Liberty University, for "stooping" to "that evangelical crowd"
Let's play some political madlibs and imagine that instead of "stooping to that evangelical crowd," Matthews had criticized a candidate who spoke at an Islamic center for "stooping to that Muslim crowd." Cue the cries of religious bigotry!

Pandering, yes. So if he had done it before Cruz, would it still be pandering, or only because he is speaking there after Cruz?

Cruz is one of us (a born again believer)...therefore no pandering.
Jeb is not one of us...therefore — pandering.

Anyone else having a problem with Newsbusters tonight?
Firefox. Won’t load Newsbusters at all and this thread here on FreeRepublic about a Newsbusters story is taking forever to refresh.

I had a problem...wouldn’t load.
I kept trying and after about 5 min., it finally loaded.

This is what leftist, elitist, left- and lefter coast pukes think of us regular Americans. We have to be “stooped” down to.
I dispise these people, Lord help me.

Matthews looks like a child molester to me. Is he is member of NAMBLA?

It's pandering because Jeb Bush is not a conservative, whereas, Liberty University, for the most part, is a conservative institution.
For the exact opposite reason, Ted Cruz speaking at Liberty University is not pandering.

I don’t care for the guy, but come on politics is politics. As phony as it it is it’s nothing compared to Cankles lowering herself to the unwashed masses at Chipotles. And really Chipotles, a mexican(kinda sorta)QSR, how vacuous does she think Americans are.

How did we go from comparing Jeb to Ted to comparing Jeb to Cankles?

Only comparing politics, those that say “Jeb isn’t one of us” and deriding him for going to to speak at a Christian University. All I did was point out that if that was bad what hitlary did was worse, they’re the ones make my comparison logical. Personally I’m leaning toward Cruise so have no reason to support Bush.
