Chris Matthews Still Claiming Benghazi Attack was a Spontaneous Movie Review

MSNBC has become the Pravda of the US media, the loyalist outlet that clings to discredited government propaganda even long after the government stopped repeating it. If Chris Matthews put on a uniform, he could be Baghdad Bob.

In Chris Matthews’ world, time never moves forward. The old lies are still good enough.

CLICK ABOVE LINK FOR THE VIDEO

MATTHEWS: This is my problem Joy with that interview and the questioning from O’Reilly, and I’m not a media critic. But the information’s out there that Susan Rice told the truth. It was a spontaneous attack on our facility in Benghazi… In Cairo the attacks there were in response apparently to the video! The crazy right wing video that came out of Los Angeles! So, it was right! She got it right Susan Rice. So, why doesn’t the president just blasting it back at the guy?

Chris Matthews says more stupid and wrong things in a single sentence than a bus full of failed Jeopardy contestants.

Spontaneous attacks don’t involve heavy firepower, scouts, insider information and international coordination along with the presence of multiple terrorist groups… including Al Qaeda.

The video, which isn’t right-wing except in Chris Matthews’ imagination, had as much to do with the attack as Matthews does with journalism.

But you can’t completely blame Matthews. David Kilpatrick, who has more serious journalism creds than Matthews (then again who doesn’t) tried to revive the same lie for the New York Times before even Democratic senators shot it down.

But Matthews, like a good little leftbot, won’t stop repeating the lies anyway. It’s not like the MSNBC audience knows any better anyway.

Seldom has a useful idiot been as proud to be seen for what he is.

The last I heard, Dan Rather thought the fake memos about George W. Bush were still suitable evidence. People say that history repeats itself, so I guess liberalism repeats itself, too.

I’ve heard all about Chris Matthews and his little show, but I’ve never actually seen it.

On what days does he dress up like Tokyo Rose?

What we will probably never learn:

Who originated the screwy idea to go with the phony video story. That would not have been Obama. Queen Valerie is a good bet but, AFAIK, there is no confirmation that it was her nor any hints as to who it might have been.

"She got it right Susan Rice. So, why doesn’t the president just blasting it back at the guy?"

Chris Matthews has it exactly right here, but can't see the forest for the trees. IF Susan Rice "got it right", the why ISN'T the president blasting it back at the guy? If she is dead on right, then they would be crucifying Fox News more than usual, the O'Reilly interview would never have happened, and they would be treating Fox News as a propagandist, rather than a journalistic outlet.

But ol' Chrissy, he sees Rice being "right" as a fact, and can't understand why the president isn't publicizing that. Chrissy, check your assumptions.

I would be more interested in the ramblings of a crazed homeless guy than whatever Chris Matthews has to say. Besides, the homeless guy might wander past a Fox news camera crew, in which case he would have in one minute more viewers than Matthews gets in six months.

*I would be more interested in the ramblings of a crazed homeless guy than whatever Chris Matthews has to say*

That would be a good idea for a game show.
You would have to determine who said a certain feckless rambling.
Matthews or a homeless guy.

Example:

“Hey, red car guy. Whereja get the red car?”

After all the Chris Matthews quotes have been exhausted the game show could move on to Al Gore vs. homeless guy quotes:

“Man-made global warming is real!”

It could be made into a monster If we all pull together as a team.

My wife asked me to take the dogs outside so they could “Do their business”. I started wondering about that phrase “Do their business”. Has anyone ever paid a dog to take a dump? I mean, besides Hardball with Chris Matthews?

Obviously, for Chris to take this "position" he gets a “thrill” in his leg thinking about Hilary running for President and will do anything to help her achieve that "position" he so wants to see her in.

If Chris Matthews were any more stupid the mortician would take him away.......but we’ll have to wait until he is strangled by his anus.
