Meltdown
Chris Matthews Unhinged on Radio Talk Show...
[Jim
Kouri] 11/28/05
MSNBC's talk
show host Chris Matthews is a man who obviously: (1) Believes
he is the smartest person on television; (2) Enjoys bullying
women such as Michelle Malkin on the air; (3) Enjoys bullying
senior citizens who may not be as quick with the mouth as he
is; (4) Is irrelevent except for a few of his fellow moonbats
who actually believe he's a mental giant; (5) Is of the opinion
that he's really competition for Fox News Channel's lineup.
During a
speech he gave in Canada at the University of Toronto, Matthews
did what most American liberals do when in a foreign country
-- he denigrated his own country. During his usual bloviating
Matthews is quoted as saying, "America's enemy in the
war on terror is not evil -- they just have a different perspective."

As a result
of the Chris Matthews pseudo-intellectual speech, radio talk
show
host Bob Newman invited him to appear on KOA's "The
Gunny Bob Show," aired in Phoenix. Bob is a decorated Marine
and a columnist who specializes in terrorism and counterinsurgency.
Matthews agreed to appear on Newman's show. Many listeners may
argue it wasn't an appearance as much as it was a total meltdown
of a man who got caught displaying anti-American tendencies on
a radio show with bigger ratings than Hardball.
Bob Newman was interested in pursuing the meaning of Matthews'
statements in Toronto.
According to the Gunny, he repeatedly asked Matthews if he thought
terrorists are our enemy. Finally, after Matthews apparently
realized that the Gunny wasn't going to allow him to dodge the
question, Matthews replied that terrorists are "a sub-set
of our enemy," to which Gunny Bob asked what that meant.
Matthews flew into a rage and it went downhill from there.
When the Gunny told Matthews that he wasn't buying his bizarre,
convoluted explanation of his controversial speech, Matthews
started screaming about how awful the Bush administration is
and then totally lost it by hanging up on the Gunny with considerable
gusto and fury.
Matthews displayed the usual behavior lefties utilize when they
feel cornered like rats: start spouting anti-Bush rhetoric and
play to the cheap seats where you'll find the left-wing moonbats
sitting and cheering. But the hang up in the middle of an interview
shows Matthews can give it but can't take it.
"I knew the guy was a hot head with serious discipline
problems, but when he came out of the gate swinging and kept
dodging questions and offering incomprehensible answers and obvious
diversions, I knew I had a live one on the line. I was, however,
quite surprised that he felt so humiliated on my show that he
decided that hanging up was his best option. I expected more
professional behavior from Chris, frankly," the Gunny said.
"The rage Chris
demonstrated at me because I had the temerity to challenge
not only his controversial speech but his explanation
of that speech, as well as his belief that terrorists are a 'sub-set'
of America's enemies, was alarming. What kind of journalist conducts
himself like that? Especially on a show that has more listeners
than he has viewers.
" He blasted into the interview at full bore and went straight
for my throat. He quickly realized that sort of tactic wasn't
going to work on me. He didn't do his background work to find
out who I am and what I used to do for a living. That apparently
panicked him and he went ape when I pressed on and on with
questions he didn't want to answer on the air." -one-
