MSNBCs Chris Matthews accused American businesses of sabotaging President Obama and his program by selfishly placing profit ahead of the national interest.
The continued refusal of firms to hire is prolonging the recession and hurting the Presidents Party in the upcoming election, Matthews contended. When we all should be pulling together to help President Obama, businesses are insisting that decreased sales revenue and negative net earnings make adding personnel too risky. Even worse, many of these businesses are now contributing money to help elect people who oppose the President. At the risk of appearing overly strident, Id say this looks like treason to me.
Matthews urged that the President should do everything in his power to crack down on those who aim to thwart him. Even if Republicans do take control of Congress, President Obama still has weapons he can use. The IRS still answers to him. Lets see how these businesses like being audited. Or he can issue Executive Orders shutting down whole business sectors if they are insufficiently cooperative. And theres lawsuits. If Attorney General Holder can sue the State of Arizona he can just as easily sue any business enemies of the President.
In related news, Presidential Advisor David Axelrod taunted the Chamber of Commerce for failure to disclose the names of those donating to its campaign against the Presidents program. What, are they afraid well do something to hurt those donors? Axelrod jeered. Only a wimp hides behind a claim of confidentiality. The American people deserve to know all the facts about those who oppose the government. If they wont give this information up voluntarily, well, we have ways of encouraging them to do so.

Thats a moron on parade for sure.
For the most part they did it because they could ~ not because they cared.
That's going to happen to Obama too. He's going to be pushed out of the public's eye simply because it's possible to do that.
People like this are only defended by folks who would imagine Senator Roman Hsruska was correct with his comment, cited in the Congressional Record, that even the mediocre are entitled to a little representation.
Chrissy regularly refers to this case and Hruska's statement ~ one of his staples in fact.
I’d laugh, but it’s not unreal enough!
I just love these Friday Silliness threads!!
Well . . . so what? The President sabotaged businesses and business people first.
Boo Hoo Hindu!

We can make fun of Chris Matthews and probably should but that mind set is scary. Its indicative of the totalitarian mindset of the scum we have in power in this country today. The paragraph that contained that sentence above should tell every American how the left thinks and how engrained it is in too many of American citizens. Comments like that should strike fear in the heart of all freedom loving people.
Dayum! He got me. I hate it when that happens. I gotta look at the poster before I ........... oh he!! :-)
