OK, WHAT'S OLD CHRIS "MR. THRILL UP MY LEG" MATTHEWS REALLY UP TO?
Has liberal MSNBC Hardball host Chris "Mr. Tingles" Matthews, best known for throwing all manner of childish jabs at Republicans during his silly little television show, gone mad or has he, maybe, seen the light? Or is it, instead, all part of some grand scheme or concerted effort by those on the left to convince Barry that before we get much closer to the election, he should simply abdicate and turn over the reins of power over to Hillary? But for whatever the reason, the liberal commentator has become increasingly critical, even hostile, of Barry "Almighty," the same man whose words were said to give him that "thrill up my leg." Matthews has an upcoming book, which has been described by some as being a beatification of John F. Kennedy, but during an interview on Weekends with Alex Witt, Matthews went on what can only be described as a rant criticizing Barry, and the “little kids with propellers on their heads” who are advising him. So what the Hell was Mr. Matthews really expecting to have happen?
Mr. Matthews "seems" to want us to believe that he is dissatisfied with Barry on quite a number of points. “What are we trying to do in this administration? Why does he want a second term? Would he tell us? What’s he going to do in the second term? More of this? Is this it? Is this as good as it gets? Where are we going? Are we going to do something the second term? He has yet to tell us. He has not said one thing about what he would do in the second term. He never tells us what he is going to do with reforming our healthcare systems, Medicare, Medicaid, how is going to reform Social Security. Is he going to deal with long-term debt? How? Is he going to reform the tax system? How? Just tell us. Why are we in this fight with him? Just tell us, Commander, give us our orders and tell us where we’re going, give us the mission. And he hasn’t done it." I'd say Matthews hasn't been paying attention. Most of us know what this administration is trying to do. And that would be to destroy this country.
Continuing on his little journey into the realm of the mentally challenged, Matthews went on to say, "And I think it’s the people around him, too many people around, they’re little kids with propellers on their heads. They’re all virtual. Politics, this social networking, I get these e-mails, you probably get them. I’m tired of getting them. Stop giving them to me. I want to meet people. Their idea of running a campaign is a virtual universe of sending e-mails around to people. No it’s not. It’s meetings with people, it’s forging alliances. It’s White House meetings and dinner parties that go on till midnight, and he should be sitting late at night now with senators and members of Congress and governors working together on how they‘re going to win this political fight that’s coming." Personally, with his being such a devout liberal, I don't see what he's got to complain about. What has Barry done that Matthews has not been in total agreement with? This guy has been a liberal's dream. He's Carter on steroids!
Matthews went on to express his skepticism that the Obamas really want to be in the White House. “Don’t you feel, I think everybody feels an absence of communication from the time he’s been elected. And it’s not about not being left-wing enough or too left. That’s not his problem. It’s connection. And Mrs. Obama, she’s an amazing asset. And what has she done? Obesity? How about connecting with the American people about being Americans? I don‘t think she’s, I don‘t think she’s happy. I don’t think they like being in the White House. The American people can tell that. They don’t seem thrilled at the fact the American people have selected them as our first family. I don’t sense the gratitude, the happiness level, the thrill of being president. Bill Clinton loved being president every minute and you knew it." While I suppose it can be said that "BJ" did love being president, it was for far different reasons than, say a Reagan or even a Bush, loved being president. I really don't think I need to expound on that topic.
On one point I can totally agree with Matthews. I don't think the Obamas really want to be in the White House. They view it as being small potatoes, as being beneath their dignity. I think they very quickly just became board with it all. Both of the Obamas suffer from what can easily be described as delusions of grandeur. Their opinions of themselves far exceed the opinion that many Americans have of them. On most occasions Barry, as well as Mrs. Barry, seem to be more than a little anoided by the fact that people don't just simply agree with what they're saying with no questions asked. And Barry, being as thrilled with the sound of his own voice as he is, just loves giving speeches. And while they both absolutely love the perks that come with the office, they view the actual day to day rigors of the office as being more than just a little mundane. It's like they're simply going through the motions, except of course when either on one of the many vacations or when Barry is on the golf course.
