RIP Chris Matthews’ leg – IOTW Report

RIP Chris Matthews’ leg

American Thinker: He was a working-class kid from Philly who parlayed his job on the Capitol Police Force into work for Speaker Tip O’Neill, becoming his chief of staff, and, later, speechwriter for Jimmy Carter before moving into print and later TV journalism.  He lives in a world of the power elite but carries his background and lack of an Ivy League diploma proudly.

He is a remnant of the Democratic Party of old, now but a memory, in a world where identity politics reigns supreme on the left.  He is not a happy camper, and he said so this weekend at the Miami Book Fair.

Margaret Menge reports in Lifezette:

Chris Matthews gave it to the Democrats on Saturday in a talk at the Miami Book Fair, saying they’ve lost their connection to white working people, and had better try to get it back.

“You know, ever since we started this Archie Bunker thing in the early ’70s, making fun of white working people, we kissed them goodbye,” he said. “You make fun of people, you look down on them? They get the message. You call them deplorables? They hear it. You bet they hear it. You say they cling to their guns and their religion? Oh yeah, I cling to my religion. OK. I’m a little person, and you’re a big person. Thank you, I’ll be voting for the other guy this time.” …

  1. Ah, a faint shadow of the Chris Matthews who did nonstop Clinton bashing during Slick Willie’s Lewinski/impeachment days. I hadn’t paid any attention to him before then, and he made a good impression. Too bad, but that impression died pretty fast after that period. He’s been a knee-jerk jerk most of the time since then, but every once in a while, such as at this book fair, he shows he still has a smidgen of character left.

  2. Matthews smells the Tide turning. And he sees the Dems/DNC are now the shrinking party of angry blacks, retired ex hippies and rabid RevComUSA.
    He can read the last election map too. As well as shrinking ratings.

    No future on the Left for white males.

    Even “Tingles” sees it.

  3. When a (former) Dem like Matthews speaks the truth it usually means he knows he’s done. Never liked him myself and now ‘the faithful’ at the DNC will get orders to throw him under the nearest bus, or he he will have an “accident.”

  4. The Democrap party is fast becoming a majority-minority party which, in the near future, will not accept any white person in a leadership role! Stupid white Marxists and current Democrap elected officials think that they will continue to be the plantation overseers with a huge number of dumb, minority stooges doing their bidding and electing them to leadership positions! As Sir Hillary Clinton would say: HaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHaHa as the minorities kick them to the curb if not completely out of the party!!

  5. Sounds a little too much like some of the Hollywood blowhards on the sex scandal to me (George Clooney thundering that he “wants to know who knew about this”) in that they see what’s happening and they want to establish their alibi’s now in order to be squeaky clean when the bloodletting really starts. Screw Matthews, I hope he burns like a lot of them will.
