Chris Matthews asked a question Sunday that should truly offend people on both sides of the aisle.

During the syndicated program bearing his name, Matthews asked his panel, "Has President Obama put himself at political risk if the big cuts do not wreak havoc?" (video follows with transcript and commentary):


Fascinating that there wasn't any discussion about how disgusting it was for the President to fearmonger as he has in recent weeks if there really was the potential that the sequester wouldn't have the negative effect he was predicting.

Instead, these so-called journalists were just wondering if lying to the public will harm him politically.

I guess to them a lie from a Democrat is okay if he or she isn't hurt by it.

Pretty disgraceful from member of the press, dontcha think?

matthews, is quite the ass kisser. Wtf does Obama have to do to be called a bad president?

What a fucking joke our government has turned into.

 

[francoHFW]

What he warned about WILL happen, and it's NOT Armageddon- just ANOTHER 0.5% off growth, thanks to the GOP's debt ceiling ongoing crisis...a disgrace.

Nice avatar, un-American superdupe hater...

If it doesnt result in armaggedon, Obama can just say "Despite the Republican's attempt to do harm to the country, we were able to manage it and control the situation."

He'll master this messaging.

 

[francoHFW]

He NEVER did say Armageddon- another great example of our pathetic, controversy/ratings mad media.

If you get all your misinformation from the Pub Propaganda Machine, yes.

Obama got what he wanted with the sequestration deal - big cuts to defense.

Obama lied when he promised sequestration wouldn't happen, he has done nothing to show he is serious about stopping it. What more can he compromise on? More cuts for social services? He won't budge on that.
