Video: Matthews wonders, is Bush a krazy Kristian krusader in the grip of a messianic delusion?

Reached for comment, conservative-of-doubt Andrew Sullivan said he had no doubt about it.
If he thinks the Crusades were a mission to spread freedom, he’s even dumber than I thought.

Zionist? Give Matthews a drug teat! I will bet that he can’t pass a drug if he studied!! Matthews is whacked!

Maybe he should ask Sullivan to come closer to the screen so he can kiss his ass better

Does MSNBC make money? They must, because they continue to stay WAY out on the left-wing fringe, and they seem to have just accepted “this is who we are” and run with it… They certainly won’t grow their audience this way, so I have to assume they turn a profit if GE allows them to continue this way?
RightWinged on August 15, 2007 at 5:29 PM
Coded language…conspiracy theories abound. If these guys could sit back and listen to their own nonsense, maybe they’d think before flapping their lips. Besides AP, who in the world watches Hardball, anyway?

Wednesday stupid!
Maybe so but I am willing to bet he has an iPhone!
On-my-soap-box on August 15, 2007 at 5:31 PM
Profound, thoughtful, concise. All the things Crissy Matthews isn’t.
Limerick on August 15, 2007 at 5:32 PM
I think its a loser, money wise. I thought Microsoft was going to pull the MS from the network a few years back cuz it wasn’t making them any money. Wonder what happened to that.
lorien1973 on August 15, 2007 at 5:33 PM
Come closer Duffy. You are so beautiful.
heh HAH
gabriel sutherland on August 15, 2007 at 5:34 PM
That’s an awesome alliteration, AP. I love it.
No one ever seems to point out that Wilson, who was a Democrat, believed God made him president and it was his duty to do carry out God’s works as president. I don’t know if it was of the Born Again variety, but he got us through World War I. The whole year we were in it.
wherestherum on August 15, 2007 at 5:36 PM
Yeah, this is pretty much the uh … Matthews obviously doesn’t know anything about the Crusades. He should read the Politically Incorrect Guide to Islam and the Crusades XP He might learn him something.
apollyonbob on August 15, 2007 at 5:37 PM
Mre thinks Chrissy needs to reaffirm his left wing bias that he lost when he make those comments to that female reporter.
The left will forgive him now that he attacked bush
William Amos on August 15, 2007 at 5:38 PM
It’s hard for me to take anybody who looks and sounds like Fire Marshal Bill [on In Living Color], seriously.
OhEssYouCowboys on August 15, 2007 at 5:43 PM
Does Chris Matthews have pupils?
His eyes are just funky
dc84123 on August 15, 2007 at 5:44 PM
Someone needs to ask Matthews if he’s a Zionist or an Anti-Zionist. Christians by virtue of the scriptures are Zionist and I guess I would not be surprised if Matthews was an Anti-Zionist. Democrats normally have an undercurrent of anti-Semitism, so once again Matthews shows his LEFTist inclination, not really surprising.
Maxx on August 15, 2007 at 5:47 PM
This is more Goofball than Hardball. If any of these so called experts had some expertise then maybe it would be worth while. As it stands now the only experts on being Born Again are not Born Again. Amazingly obtuse. Lets roll the ball to determine if Jesus really said that or not or call father God mother God and deny the blood of Jesus. Because we are so enlightened and so intellectual we know better. Geesh take a break, talk to someone who has walked this thing out. Faith I mean. Let the Bible interpret the Bible and make the choice to believe it or not believe. It is all choice but don’t act like an expert when clearly you are not.
mjkazee on August 15, 2007 at 5:50 PM
You were referring to either Matthews, Duffy, or Sullivan, or all of the above?

Wasn’t me but I chose D.
mjkazee on August 15, 2007 at 5:53 PM
Certainly not! I am!
tikvah on August 15, 2007 at 5:55 PM
No, no Chris is right! I found this in an obscure government document..
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness”
sweeper on August 15, 2007 at 5:56 PM
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
Yeah, Chris, George Bush is delusional. Him and those misguided schmucks back in 1776.
Matticus Finch on August 15, 2007 at 5:58 PM
Chris Mathspews….Of Snow Ball… Does any sane person really watch him except… to post things like this??
vulcannomad on August 15, 2007 at 6:03 PM
You are such an ass, matthews. No redeeming qualities at all. Grow up.
Mazztek on August 15, 2007 at 6:05 PM
To be honest, the only time most of the people on here see Chrissy is when Chrissy is on here. The rumor is even his immediate family doesn’t watch his drivel.
volsense on August 15, 2007 at 6:17 PM
“I listen to this President….Masonic drive, Crusader, Christian support for Zionism, Religious Psycho babble, allusion or delusion.” Wasn’t that other guy there to promote a book or something?
One would think Matthews was talking about some off the wall lunatic drunk walking up and down the street screaming insanely while waiting for the guys in the white coats to grab him at any moment. Talking points by the Liberal Progressive media.
KCtheKat on August 15, 2007 at 6:31 PM
Wow! This is a real scandal! An American President’s decisions might actually be influenced by their Christian faith! In fact,, their whole world view could actually be affected by the Bible and Jesus Christ! If it wasn’t on the news and if I hadn’t seen it for myself,, I just never would’ve believed it!
Thank you Mr Matthews!
JellyToast on August 15, 2007 at 6:53 PM
Dear Mr. Matthews:
I’m curious; has anybody ever farted on your head?
radjah shelduck on August 15, 2007 at 6:59 PM
What do you expect from someone who worked for the worst president of the 20th century, Jimmy Carter and the one of the most corrupt Speakers of the House, Tip O’Neill ?
deadbackpacker on August 15, 2007 at 7:27 PM
Just how dumb did you think Matthews is? meh…Someone like Matthews is digging himself into a hole…with nowhere to go but down.
JetBoy on August 15, 2007 at 7:35 PM
I take offense to your use of K’s
Kaptain Amerika on August 15, 2007 at 7:52 PM
so I heard yesterday on a thread here that Bryan and Allah Pundit are from two different sides of the coin… where do I learn more about these two? and I mean somewhere that is honest about it and not just bashing the two of them. I’d like to know more about my two favorite news reporters.
Kaptain Amerika on August 15, 2007 at 7:56 PM
MM or Laura Ingraham needs to confront this face to face
KBird on August 15, 2007 at 8:09 PM
The only person I’ve seen on a crusade for the last six years has been Matthews …. a crusade to paint President Bush as a Bible-toting moron who brought about the Fall and Decline of the United States of America.
Ain’t workin’. Nobody’s watchin’.
fogw on August 15, 2007 at 8:32 PM
More limited than dumb. The limited vision of someone who cannot conceive that some men believe in God as more than a good idea, and cannot comprehend that a religion is more than a political choice. When he speaks of religion driving Bush, Matthews is in above his head.
Politics drive the political man. But it is not religion that drives the believer, it is belief in God. Secularists have religion too but they do not expect a God to call them to judgement one day for eating out of styrofoam cups instead of renewables.
Where Bush really is on this I cannot guess; his behaviour on letting the illegals take America shows a disdain for the citizens and the law, not very Evangelical at all but right in line with the secular religionists, and the aging denominations that have decided to swap a virgin birth for a man who judges no one, and Biblical miracles for metaphors
Matthews certainly has a strange understanding of the Crusades. The Crusades are a medieval reaction kicking back at the group that took over the Holy Land and tried to take all of Europe too. The Crusaders and most of the West knew that the islamic armies had a goal of world conquest. Catapults, crossbows and boiling oil were the way of life for both sides then. Given (A) the intentions of the Mohammedans, and (B) the medieval problem solving tools we get (c) Crusades. Makes for great movies too.
Matthews acts like ‘religion’ is a bad third party in a two party system. His distaste for Zionism shows. He seems to have no equal distaste for the unnamed equivalent of the jihadi who do not seek the just land mass around Jerusalem, but the entire world.
Evangelism he cannot compute at all. You can see almost see the brain fissures forming any time he goes near that nasty subject
entagor on August 15, 2007 at 8:51 PM
I am dumber for watching this. How does Chris Matthews manage to have a tv show? He really must have some video or pictures of his boss or something, because it certainly isn’t intelligence or charm or looks that keeps him on the air.
CrimsonFisted on August 15, 2007 at 9:07 PM
I wasted about ten seconds viewing the clip. That’s
all I need to se that Crissy is on his misson to
smear GW. The good thing about these dorks is they
start the smear/hate BS so soon I can cut-em off fast
and save time.
Thanks Chrissy , Olbey , David , and so many others.
Texyank on August 15, 2007 at 9:40 PM
Is Bush running in 2008?
Somebody better tell Chris his venal vituperative vitriol is being wasted.
He might as well spit in zero gravity for all the effect he has.
profitsbeard on August 15, 2007 at 10:07 PM
Chris Matthews obviously worships the spittle gods. There should be a “spit guard” between him and each guest on his show, kinda like the one at the local restaurant’s salad bar.
MsUnderestimated on August 15, 2007 at 10:17 PM
I’m just surprised that Matthews was talking about something other than Karl Rover.
MsUnderestimated on August 15, 2007 at 10:20 PM
I’d like a time machine, so I could go back in time, stand next to someone like Matthews, wait ’til he says something like the remark about the crusades being about spreading freedom, then smack him really hard across the face, just to get his undivided attention, then ask him if he has the slightest clue as to what he’s talking about. Such a time machine could be useful for lots of leftist tools flapping their lips about subjects which they know nothing about.
Frozen Tex on August 15, 2007 at 10:23 PM
That is stupider than me after a case of New Glarus Stout. However, a true historian may well perceive it as related to the crusades. I am not a true historian, but I have read related historical data that would imply that the Crusades were more of a defense against Islamic domination in the time frame it happened, than an actual assault on it. The rest of the whole interview is all BDS. Nothing more, nothing less.
MalkinFan on August 15, 2007 at 10:24 PM
Chris Matthews = Pot. Kettle. Black.
Lawrence on August 15, 2007 at 11:21 PM
Thanks for playing NutBall Chris! This is the reason you’re on my list of “must miss tv”.
thedecider on August 15, 2007 at 11:36 PM
Chris, that train left the station years ago…
