Matthews: 'That's Not a Crime to Call Al Qaeda, Is It?'

 
MSNBC's Chris Matthews has said some things that would make your scratch your head - like getting a thrill up his leg from a speech given by Barack Obama. However, this one will really make you wonder what he was thinking.
 
On his Nov. 9 broadcast of "Hardball," in an interview with Zuhdi Jasser, president of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, Matthews compared the incident of Maj. Nidal M. Hasan at Ft. Hood to Sirhan Sirhan's 1968 assassination of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy. Read more here.

I wonder if he realizes how IGNORANT he sounds. Yes it is a violation of the UCMJ to unlawfully and without authorization contact the enemy which in this case is Alqaeda. I unlike Chris know this because I actually served in the Army for 20 years. Honorable service to your Nation, something Matthews could never comprehend.

Something definitley has warped this guys sense of reality. Tell you what Chris why don't you do us all a favor and contact Al qaeda and see how long it takes the FBI to stake out your pig stye. You have to be the dumbest person that the libiturds have pushing thier cause.

I am definitely not a fan of Chris Matthews. However, I don't think this video clip is all that offensive. To me it sounds like he is merely proposing the question of when we should consider a perosn a threat. It's a legitimate question in a society where we have religious freedom and privacy rights. I have seen much, much worse from Matthews than this.

Yeah but contacting Al-Qaida has nothing to do with your religious freedom or your prvacy rights. Imagine our GIs contacting the Nazis during WWII. That's considered treason.

This will never penetrate the liberal left as they would not join the Military to defend this country. But they will become columnists or politicians so they can tell you how wrong you are and how your lying eyes do not see what they see.
I will believe a cartoon before I will believe these guys.

The 3 or 4 viewers of his program do not have a problem with the dribble that falls out of this idiot-moron's mounth. When you add the 2 or 3 viewers of the Keith O.Show and the 1 or 2 of that female, what is her name show? Then you pretty much have all the MSNBC viewers agree on this aand every other subject.

Chris, one question for you, what does your wife and children think of you, and of course, your brother who ran with Lynn Swann in Pennsylvania for Lt. Governor.
