Matthews leads appeasement journalists
Chris Matthews, host of MSNBC’s “Hardball” can savage the 110-pound Michelle Malkin on the set of his television talk show, but believes President Bush is wrong to view terrorists as evil. In speaking to political science students at the University of Toronto on Sunday, Matthews suggested Americans should try to get to know their enemies better.
I was reminded of Karl Rove’s speech a few months ago to the New York Conservative Party when he said, “Conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 and the attacks and prepared for war; liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers.”
Outraged Democrats demanded an apology from Rove and the diligent political operatives in the White House press corps badgered Scott McClellan to disavow the advisor’s remarks. Matthews challenged guests on his show to say whether they believed Rove’s speech was “over the top,” the implication being that he thought it was.
Rove accurately described Matthews and his ilk who dominate the Old Media as well as the Democratic Party with which they are so inextricably entwined. These are people who have no will to fight and do whatever they can to undermine the efforts of those who do. Matthews undoubtedly shares John Kerry’s asinine vision of a “kinder, gentler war,” of diplomacy, sensitivity training and appeasement.
Sadly, Matthews isn’t alone, but typical of the Washington media elites. The stench of cowardice permeates the newsrooms and studios from which these partisans give aid and comfort to the enemies of America. These “journalists” regard their glory days as the period during which they were able to destroy support for a war and force the resignation of a president. They are working overtime to recreate both with Iraq and Bush, trying to fit current events into those templates.
The good news is that it’s not 1972 and the falsehoods promoted as fact today by Chris Matthews, Nancy Pelosi and Cindy Sheehan will not go unanswered like those Walter Cronkite, John Kerry and Jane Fonda were then. The New Media will make sure of that.
