Kerry Issues Smackdown To Matthews

Yesterday on his program MSNBC's Hardball, Chris Matthews, as only he can do, compared Bin Laden to Michael Moore. Rather than discuss , investigate and report on Bin Laden's statement he takes the time to besmerch a Democrat. Rather than question why a dangerous megalomaniac is still out there and able to inspire fear into the American people and possibly cause more damage and death, he instead lowers himself to use the Fox News style of broadcasting and claim Osama sounds like Michael Moore. .... What an ass. That most certainly was the epitome of in-depth reporting there Chris. As George would say, "You're doin' a heck of a job there Chrissy". Don't forget, it was George Bush who stated he wanted Bin Laden "Dead or Alive" then a year later was quoted as saying "on March 13, 2002, "I don't know where he is. You know, I just don’t spend that much time on him ... I truly am not that concerned about him." May I ask you, is this an appropriate response? Give off a flippy remark on an important matter? Pesonnally I prefer the adult and sensible reply. For example let's say of Senator John Kerry "You'd think the only focus tonight would be on destroying Osama Bin Laden, not comparing him to an American who opposes the war whether you like him or not. You want a real debate that America needs? Here goes: If the administration had done the job right in Tora Bora we might not be having discussions on Hardball about a new Bin Laden tape. How dare Scott McClellan tell America that this Administration puts terrorists out of business when had they put Osama Bin Laden out of business in Afghanistan when our troops wanted to, we wouldn't have to hear this barbarian's voice on tape. That's what we should be talking about in America." On can only imagine what the conditions would be like both here and in Iraq if John Kerry had been sworn in as Commander In Chief instead of a mindless little twit who seams to get his jollies off by strutting around in a flight jacket and playacting.
