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.
nolies74621
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.

Matthews must have gotten a thrill up his other leg after reporting on this slaughter of unarmed, innocent men, women and unborn baby. I wish I could say here what I think of this jerk Matthews!!

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.
Reagan 2012
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.

Lou Dobbs will lead next Tea Party, ha ha. He is making his KKK robe right now.

looks like, walks like, quacks like, okay he is not a TERRORIST he is a kitten.
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.

Why does Chris Matthews continuously say such STUPID things? It's simple: Liberalism is a MENTAL DISORDER!(Just ask Joe Lieberman)

Unfortunately Obamacare will not cover it!

Lou Dobbs is leaving CNN. Now he is free to screech on Fox like he always wanted. Fox is dumping ground for all second-rate broadcasters, ha ha.

Why do you ask , Chris ? Were you thinking of placing a call? Will you patch General McChrystal in when you reach them please ?

Honestly, why is this man still in front of a camera? He is a total waste of oxygen that a real American could use. I think these folks are a major factor in the "global warming" problem. They open their mouths and only carbon dioxide escapes, no real news. Idiots, I cannot wait until these liberal stations go away. Oh yea, Obama will pay to keep them open.

Jon Stewart busted Fox on combining 2 different parties to make this past week's rally look much bigger. Shame on lying Fox. Fox does not respect its viewers by lying.

Chris Matthews - you are disgusting and it is obvious that you do in fact hate America and everything it stands for.
findthemorons
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. You have to be an embarrassment to your family. You should watch yourself sometime Chris, you would be disgusted by you too. You are what my mother would call a raving lunatic.

Chris, do you think you could control your leg long enough to interview your IDOL, Obama? Boy! would I like to see that interview! I bet your whole body would be tingling. It would make A GOOD COMEDY HOUR. You might want to sew up half of your mouth for the interview. We don't want to see any drools.

Chris, you people over at MSNBC are turning your news station into THE OFFICIAL NEWS STATION for OBAMA. Just like PRAVDA is the offical news for the Russians. CONGRATULATIONS, CHRIS, you're looking and sounding just like PRAVDA!!!!

Well, Chris, if a an Army officer had called up the KGB during the cold war, what would you think? It was okay for that idiot Jane Fonda to hang around Hanoi with the VC because she was a CIVILIAN. He is beyond clueless.

MSNBC should carefully edit what this guy is allowed to say. He was after in the CARTER adminstration... a real 'wing-nut'.

Chrissy, you are a waste of human skin. I have never watched you except when Fox shows how idiotic you are. You have forgotten about 9/11 idiot.
A. Capone
I don't watch this guy but he does bring up a point. Is it a crime to call Al Qaeda?. If it is- why wasn't Hasan stopped? If its not a crime it should be- especially criminal if by US Military and employees. DUHHHHH.....
I don't see how he is "defending terrorists" from this video clip.
