#1 Except that he's said the same thing -- about needing to understand terrorsts -- in the past.

I don't buy his denial. He's too much of a jerk for me to buy it without a transcript or (preferably) tape.

#2 and a wise man you are, RC. Poor Mikey ... always on the short end of the truth.

the truth hurts

Update On Matthews: He Meant What We Thought He Did, That Terrorists "Just Have A Different Perspective"... He's Said As Much Before
More Than Loans remembered this post I did way back last November. It pretty much settles the question of what Chris Matthews meant in his latest outburst.

I was pretty much the only guy, as far as I know, to catch Chris Matthews making this statement a year ago; I transcribed his words directly from his show. It's a perfect translation; I remember going back and forth on the DVR to catch every word.

MATTHEWS: Well let me ask you about this. If this were on the other side, and we were watching an enemy soldier-- a rival, I mean, they're not bad guys especially, they're just people who disagree with you; they are in fact the insurgents fighting us in their country -- if we saw one of them do what we saw our guy did to that guy [i.e., shooting the playing-dead terrorist], would that be worthy of a war-crime charge?

#3 Sorry - I'm not gonna feel sorry for a member of the MSM when he or she crys that "I was misquoted" or "they put words in my mouth" That's what the MSM does every day.

Shoe on the other foot, tarred with the same brush, and all that...

#4 I knew what the intent was anyhow. This attempt a image managemnt just fortifies it.

MSM = Treason
