Chris Hayes's Curious Advice To Conservatives: Call Bush's Iraq War 'Criminal'

This could go down as some of the worst political advice ever. Then again, consider the source. Chris Hayes isn't exactly in the business of helping conservatives lead . . . or win elections.

On his MSNBC show this morning, Hayes advised conservatives to call the war that President Bush led against Iraq "criminal." Yeah, that's the ticket.

Sure way to take country down wrong path and lose elections: take advice from liberals like Chris Hayes. Ping to Today show list.

Never heard of Chris Hayes.

I’d say call Obama’s entire regime criminal, from the DOJ to EPA. That is better advice.

If I were to start a media bias blog, MSNBC would not even be on my radar. They are avowed leftists, why even bother. Even apolitical types know they are liberal.

The shows that advocate openly and honestly are just fine but the LIARS that claim to be nonpartisan and even apolitical outrage me this very important election year.

Yes almost a full term into Obama's Administration CoastToCoastAM did permit criticism of Obama (for NDAA) -- yes CoastToCoastAM has had conservative Drs. John Lott and Jerome Corsi on as guests but with restrictions vis-a-vis Obama that I noted on other threads.

CoastToCoastAM may appeal to kooks mostly but the kooks like all of the apolitical listeners vote! and are influenced by C2C "nonpartisan" Bush (Republican) bashing -- which is fine by me IF they would they would admit their bias.

Most recent example of C2C bias which IMO influences apolitical voters: last night's show.

By my reckoning I was 100 percent correct about what both guests on C2C Saturday 25 Feb 2012 would do. 100 percent! I posted on the thread that promoted the show.

I asked that one guest "is there to talk about stupefaction -- gee, I wonder who that is about." Yes it was George Bush. The guest described 9/11 as Bush sitting there in a school room with a child's book upside down on his lap looking like some kind of (don't remember the pejorative words) -- and then the guest specifically named Bush as exactly what he (the guest) is talking about, stupefaction.

Guest two was there to talk about the one percent of the population who are psychos saying Wall Street CEO's are psychos and saying that the Bush Administration was (I think he said "lots of" or was "full of") psychos. Then he went on to say that George Bush is a psycho.. saying that as a youth Bush blew up frogs with firecrackers and on and on for several minutes with reasons why Bush is a psycho.

Apparently C2C host John B. Wells was getting piles of emails and Fastblasts saying something like "Hey what about Obama? Obama as president is acting exactly like he's describing Bush!" So Wells asks the clown that question.

I can see how people make that mistake, said the clown. Obama like all of us may have faults but he is not a psycho. The clown claimed that he read Obama's books and anyone who can write like that is definitely not psycho. How about that.. I failed to predict that one of the guests would declare Bill Ayers is not a psycho. Darn.

Nary another word from John Boy.

For the host Wells that was the third show in a row of Bush bashing and in the last two shows he acknowledged it and he keeps on clucking!

Chris Hayes?

Isn’t that Rachel Maddow in drag?

And how would anyone be able to tell the difference?

I think you are onto something. Have you ever seen them in the same room at the same time?

Hey, Chrissie, tell you what: You start calling Obama’s ignoring the constitution criminal, and we’ll think about it!

Personally I prefer calling liberal scumbags like you criminals and enemies of America.
