"They're Not Bad Guys Especially, Just People Who Disagree With Us"

Here's who Chris Matthews thinks we are fighting in Iraq: "an enemy soldier --a rival, I mean they're not bad guys especially, just people who just disagree with us, they are in fact the insurgents, fighting us in their country..." Wow. To read the whole quote and to see Hugh Hewitt's interaction with it, click here.

Hugh writes: "Very, very few people watch Chris Matthews, I know, but he is representative of a group of refugees from the '60s who just won't grow up and who refuse to learn. Isn't there anyone at MSNBC who understands that their network will never get out of the cellar with Olberman and Matthews weighing them down? . . . Matthews let the inner correspondent show, and it is remarkably outside of the mainstream." Not only is it out of the mainstream, it is the worst form of moral equivalency--and I do indeed fear that this is the typical mindset of MSM.
