Chrissy Matthews: What Kerry Said Is True, Only Dropouts And Morons Join The Military

According to Ace of Spades digital brownshirt WickedPinto.

Retracted? See below.

I've alerted Allah to look for it. Hopefully he'll repeat the comments on Hardball.

I knew someone, like Bill Maher, would say "Hey, it's true" (right before denying that John Kerry intended to speak the truth).

I should have figured Chris Matthews too. He's been on this Army of Losers thing for a while.

Smart, college-educated chappies like him dodged the draft by joining the Peace Corps.

I just find it pretty ballsy that liberals are going to try the two-track strategy of 1) Kerry would never have said something so heinously awful and 2) what John Kerry said was 100% spot-on accurate.

Matthews Is Claiming... that what Kerry said isn't what he said. He's claiming, flat-out, that Kerry said Bush's lack of education on the Middle East got us "stuck in Iraq."

He may have meant that this quote -- this non-quote, what wasn't said but which the liberals are claiming was said -- is true.

Not sure. Having not seen the earlier remarks, I don't know.

Uses Jennifer Loven's Dowdified quotation of Kerry, seguing the attacks on Bush directly into the remarks about a lack of education prompting military service.

Seems to be hosting a debate between two people wo agree Kerry did not mean what he said, and in fact probably never even said it.

Some debate.

The assertion, without any evidence, is that this was an attack on Bush. It is not even mentioned that Kerry actually slighted the military-- a viewer who only gets his news from Chris Matthews (God forbid) would wonder what the fuss is about.

He played very bad audio of Kerry's actual remarks where you could barely hear what he said -- ergo, for anyone watching Hardball, Kerry not only intended to make an attack only on Bush, but actually did only make an attack on Bush.

Not a voice of dissent at Hard Softball.

In a surprise move, Chris Matthews has finally relocated out of John McCain's asshole over this, now wondering what psychological demons could have caused McCain to accuse John Kerry of saying precisely what he said.

His "attack" was "very deliberate." One of his "debaters" says this is pure political opportunism, courting the conservative base.

It's amazing that Chris Matthews looked far and wide and could not find a guest to say a bad word about John F'n' Kerry.

Having found unanimity between his liberal "debaters" (Johnathan Alter and some flake from MSNBC) that Kerry didn't say what he said, they've now moved on. The topic doesn't need to be discussed further, because John Kerry simply never said what he said, and certainly didn't mean to say what he said, which may make no sense, but that's there story and they're sticking to it.

David Schuster now dutifully offers up a bunch of Democratic political ads, inculuding one against Heather Wilson, apparently finding Wilson's brilliant ad against her opponent unfit for viewing.

So don't bother watching; there you go.

Rectracted? While WickedPinto may be correct in his report that Chris Matthews was saying "that's true, that's true" about Kerry's remarks, the 7:00 version of Hardball demonstrates that Matthews is simply flat-out lying about what Kerry said, claiming that Kerry actually made an attack on Bush's education and anyone who says otherwise is a liar.

Ergo, he's agreeing with a false statement. It doesn't appear that Matthews is even willing to acknowlege what John Kerry actually did say, so we can't take his saying "that's true, that's true" as an endorsement of those words. According to Matthews, they simply weren't said at all.

Some Video... of Matthews' stalward defense of Kerry.

Greg Tinti wisely cut the clip before Matthews picked up Kerry upside down by his ankles and put his penis in his mouth.

(In fairness, it was an act of love and respect, not a sexual act. Jennifer Loven's AP report proves it.)
