MSNBC's Chris Matthews: Is 'Great' Obama About to Equal Presidents on Mount Rushmore
NewsBusters ^

Posted on 02/21/2013 7:48:17 PM PST by chessplayer

Although every holiday may seem like Obama Day to Chris Matthews, the MSNBC host used the date often devoted to Lincoln and Washington as an excuse to wonder if the current President is headed to Mount Rushmore. On President's Day, Matthews thrilled, "Is Barack Obama going for it? Is he set on becoming one of the great presidents in history?" [See video below. MP3 audio here.]

The cable anchor, who famously declared that Obama caused a "thrill going up my leg," first declared, "I'm not talking about Mt. Rushmore but perhaps the level right below it." He later went back on this and fantasized about the President watching him: "If [Obama] were hearing us talking about him maybe mounting Mount Rushmore, getting up there with the great presidents...what would he be thinking? 'That's exactly what I'm doing?'"

Matthews comments are a positive sign that the "crash and burn cycle" of this administration is not far off.

When you start expounding this kind of COMPLETE BULL$HIT you're at a desperation level and close to "end game".

I was watching a show on The History Channel today on the antichrist. This was produced in 2005, but said that politicians ( Hitler, Stalin) were often accused of being the antichrist. Now this was produced before 0bama was even known, but the description of the characteristcs fit Hussein to a ‘T’. With that said, it dawned on me that the media would certainly not oppose and, would enevitably support, the antichrist, 0bama. Chrissy Matthews is but an agent of satan.

These people (0bama voters, Matthews, media, etc.), are behaving like a cult. And cults usually don't turn out well.

Unfortunately we are heavily in the minority disagreeing with Chris Matthews. So many people think he is great. I can’t stand talking to people politically anymore. It is stunning how many people just think he is the best and doing incredibly great things for the country. It is SICK! I get so frustrating telling them the TRUTH and they refuse to believe it.

Hopefully the Park Service has privies. I’d be in favor of putting a statue of Obama in the receiving position.

The average person thinks Obama is “great” because folks on TV and in the movies tell them so.

Chris Matthews also said that Chris Dorner, the guy that shot Monica Quanin the head had a legitimate grievance and we must not be too quick to judge him.

Matthews is delusional and so is BO-completely delusional and the Republicans need to start using this label on him consistently-but they won’t.

Matthew’s mancrush on Obama has blossomed into homo-love.

I’m still praying that Obama will rank above James Buchanan as the second worst occupant of our White House in history. That outcome would take a whole lot of luck and a substantial improvement in Obama’s job performance.

Why waste time with Mount Rushmore. Someday every communist country will have at least one statue of him.
