Chris Matthews exhumes McCarthy

I'm beginning to think that Chris Matthews is doing all he can to get a job at Fox News. Hell, with the statements he's been making lately he may be gunning for Bill O'reilly's or Sean Hannity's job. His latest outrageous statement occurred when he appeared on a local Philadelphia radio show. From pnionline.com:
"You know, one-sided, to some extent liberal propaganda. Because you know there Communists – I’m sorry…there were Communists in the government…I could go through the whole list – Elizabeth Bentley, Harry Dexter White, and of course Alger Hiss – there’s a whole gaggle of them.

And the biggest nonsense of this sort of revisionist history is that there wasn’t a Communist threat and that McCarthy was just a drunken fool. Well, he may have been a drunk – he certainly was – and he may have been unable to shoot straight, but there were lots of targets there. He just didn’t hit any."

It's really sad how wingnuts like Ann Coulter and Michele Malkin are rewriting history and now you have "journalists" like Chris Matthews actively promoting their propaganda. I know with all the posts i've done on Chris Matthews that it seems that i'm fixated on him but like i've previously said, there are people listening to him that will fall for that propaganda and that's very bad for our Democracy. Read the post at pnionline.com, it debunks Matthews comments.
