When speaking of ultra-left wing extremist bias, one needs to go no further than MSNBC and to the extent their content bleeds over to their mothership, NBC news, to find the absolutely most extreme, most disrespectful, and totally off base examples of left wing extremism. Exhibit A is the man with the frosty long bangs and voice like an air raid siren, Chris Matthews, who just claimed on the Wednesday, February 4th airing of Hardball, “Well 100,000 people are dead now because he got it wrong about nuclear weapons before.” then added, “We have to remember that Dick Cheney was wrong in a way that was lethal. 100,000 people dead including 4,000 Americans are dead, something like 15,000 wounded because he was wrong.”
On the panel were also left wing cry-baby, the man with the persistent, “I just wet my pants” kind of irritated facial expression prone to sharp temper outbursts, David Corn, and Joan Walsh. another member of the journalistic chattering class.
It’s also interesting to note that in this discussion, Matthews also quoted Tom Brokaw who was once seen as a rather straight forward “main stream” journalist who is increasingly sounding more and more like his NBC brethren when he commented during the Obama inauguration of Dick Cheney, "He does seem like a character out of 'Dr. Strangelove.”
For a media figure who so conspicuously was fawning for Barack Obama from the very beginning given the real news of the day is the embarrassing “stimulus” bill crafted by Nancy Pelosi which every single Republican representative and eleven Democrats voted against loaded with pork barrel gems for every imaginable left wing cause-du-jour including money to the Hollywood film making industry, and Obama’s continuing parade of nominees for high office who are revealed to have problems with paying taxes or significant ethical conflicts of interests despite Obama’s campaign assurances that his administration would set a new tone for Washington, what’s a guy like Matthews to do?
Obviously, last night, rather than try to make sense of the current mess of Obama’s embarrassing, though not surprising, start, revert to what was nightly fodder for eight long years of contast BS, Bush-Cheney Derangement Syndrome.
