Chris Matthews Stumps Chuck Schumer on Difference Between Socialist, Democrat

For some reason, Chris Mathews is on a tear in trying to get people to define the difference between a Democrat and Socialist. Sadly, these days there is little if any difference. Chuckie spins around, and of course won’t answer it.

State Depart: ‘ISIS problem is poverty, no jobs’

Here is the latest from one of the two Valley girls over at the State Department, Marie Harf.  Clueless. If this indeed represents the regime’s thinking, and I have no reason to think it doesn’t, we are indeed lost. . Chris Mathews for once didn’t have his tingle. All we need to do is redistribute more of our stuff. I am sure this would have worked out swell during WWII. Here is part of the interview.

State Department Spokesperson Marie Harf told Chris Matthews tonight that we cannot win this war with ISIS by killing them. She said we have to get to the root cause of why people are attracted to Jihad — you know like poverty, jobs, etc…

 

“We’re killing a lot of them and we’re going to keep killing more of them. So are the Egyptians, so are the Jordanians. They’re in this fight with us. But we cannot win this war by killing them. We cannot kill our way out of this war. We need in the medium to longer term to go after the root causes that leads people to join these groups, whether it’s lack of opportunity for jobs…”

MATTHEWS: How do we stop this? I don’t see it. I see the Shia militias coming out of Baghdad who are all Shia. The Sunnis hate them. The Sunnis are loyal to ISIS rather than going in with the Shia. You’ve got the Kurds, the Jordanian air force and now the Egyptian air force. But i don’t see any — If i were ISIS, I wouldn’t be afraid right now. I can figure there is no existential threat to these people. They can keep finding places where they can hold executions and putting the camera work together, getting their props ready and killing people for show. And nothing we do right now seems to be directed at stopping this.

HARF: Well, I think there’s a few stages here. Right now what we’re doing is trying to take their leaders and their fighters off the battlefield in Iraq and Syria. That’s really where they flourish.

MATTHEWS: Are we killing enough of them?
MATTHEWS: We’re not going to be able to stop that in our lifetime or fifty lifetimes. There’s always going to be poor people. There’s always going to be poor muslims, and as long as there are poor Muslims, the trumpet’s blowing and they’ll join. We can’t stop that, can we?

HARF: We can work with countries around the world to help improve their governance. We can help them build their economies so they can have job opportunities for these people…

Chris Matthews loses his Tingle with Obama

I thought it would be nice way to end a good week, and end it on a high note. And what could be better than to have Tingles lose his tingle? Has Chris seen the light? Or is this an illusion, a temporary loss for Obama from one of his most ardent worshiper? The full clip is worth a listen or wander over for the full read.

Chris Matthews: Obama ‘Acts Like There’s No Other World Out There’ But His

MSNBC host Chris Matthews expressed dismay over President Obama’s post-election press conference on Wednesday, calling him entirely deaf to the millions of Americans who voted against his plan to grant executive amnesty for as many as 6 million illegal immigrants.

“The people, if you look at the polling, their problem is illegal immigration,” he said. “He says, ‘I’m going to fix the problem.’ He doesn’t mean he’s gonna stop illegal immigration. He’s not going to do anything to stop illegal hiring, which is the magnet for illegal immigration, really. He’s going to basically say, ‘I’m going to deal with them by giving them green cards.’”

What bothered me about him tonight — he keeps talking about common ground,” Matthews said. “Damnit, there’s very little common ground between left and right! But what there is, is compromise.”

 

 

Dan Rather: ‘ Obama’s opponents want to “cut his heart out and throw his liver to the dogs’

It is amazing how they dig out this old war-horse that was put out to Pasteur years ago, but apparently never too old to be resurrected by NBC and MSNBC and Tingles.  Perhaps after the Benghazi hearing this week more will have a taste for it. I thought this was Obama’s idea of what to do with his opponents.

A yummy image indeed.

Via The Blaze:

Former CBS News anchor Dan Rather said Sunday that President Barack Obama’s opponents want to politically “cut his heart out and throw his liver to the dogs.”

Rather’s descriptive analysis came during “The Chris Matthews Show” on NBC. Obama has been on a so-called “charm offensive” to try to foster better relations with Republicans.

“All of these things we’ve said about what the president could do, should do, might have, could have, but the central thing to keep in mind is his opponents — you talk about taking them out to dinner, making nice with them — these people politically want to cut his heart out and throw his liver to the dogs. That does make it very, very difficult to come on nice to them,” Rather said.

“Yeah, it causes indigestion over dinner don’t you think?” Matthews cracked.

Obama only ‘eye candy’ and Chris Mathews lost his tingle

What to say after one of the best political nights since the 2010 election night when we took back the House. I caught an interview from CNN and realize the Obama clan has no hold on reality whatsoever. So congrats Mitt, not much more to say, Chris Matthews at his best.

“One of the first things I saw on the basketball court was his lack of ego,” Robinson said. “The game wasn’t about him. It was about the game and about his teammates.”

Some observers have suggested that it is the first lady who grounds the president and keeps his ego in check, but Obama was adamant that this president is grounded on his own.

“Barack doesn’t have a big ego,” she said. “That would kind of be the last thing that I would think of when I talk about my husband is big ego, because he doesn’t have that. So it’s not much to check.” CNN

Here is Chris Matthews meltdown:
