Paul Krugman made a stupid argument to the effect that Republican leaders were encouraging political violence. Actually I called the argument idiotic. Krugman's evidence consisted entirely of the most ordinary sorts of political metaphors. Krugman himself was guilty of the same, and it turns out that President Obama was as well. That looks to me like self-defeating rhetoric.
Now we see the same from MSNBC clown Chris Matthews.
By his own argument, Matthews is worse than Joe McCarthy. What this shows, of course, is that more than one liberal intellectual has rendered himself incoherent. Liberals are searching for evidence that the other side is not merely wrong but illegitimate. They are searching in a mood of desperation. They fling terrible accusations without bothering to examine their own logic or how it might come back to haunt them.
This is pathological. I suspect that the pathology points in the first place to the coming election. More deeply, it suggests that they have not entirely forgotten the long term problems that their favorite policies have created.

Matthews is not only a Left Wing hack, he’s an f’ing liar.
