Chris Matthews makes Reince Preibus squirm like a Worm

Absolutely fun to watch. Someone had to take on Preibus and ask him what is up with the racist xenophobic BS. So Matthews did it, much to the chagrin of Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski.

WoWSA. Thanks for posting this. Talk about 'throwing punches and connecting' - if only there was more of this by both media and voters. (side note: I read a piece about Brokaw is more sympatico with GOP and gotta say, so it appears. Sad.)

I am no fan of Brokaw either Auntie, if anyone seems out of touch it is that guy, along with his Pal David Gregory and several others who are frequently on Morning Joe. Chris most certainly put them all to shame, and it was spectacular.

Yes it was! As well as long overdue. (geez I wish I got that station. I'm switching to satellite soon and then I'll be able to get these programs.) Thanks for posting the connection so I could watch.

I'm disappointed in Brokaw, too. Until the last few years I never got the idea that he was anything but fair about politics. More and more I see him leaning right. A shame.
David Gregory strikes me as a rather dumb man who somehow made it to a job he's clearly not qualified for. That's not his fault as much as it is the people who hired him in the first place. Couldn't they see it?

Brokow was there in a bit more low keyed way. If it weren't for him Matthews would have been standing alone. And he set up Matthews for his second attack which imo was better than his first.
BROKAW: I think it was a demonstration of his awkward sense of humor. But I do think, in fairness, that all during the Republican debates and the primaries that there was a lot of stuff aimed at the President that was not refuted by leaders of the party.
BROKAW: I'm not talking about the birther thing, but as far as he's a Muslim, he's a socialist, he's not American. John Sununu had to apologize for saying he doesn't know what it's like to be an American. That was a pretty tough attack. Now, I think it comes the other way, by the way, from the Democrats to the Republicans as well.

In line with your observation of how Brokaw set up some pins for Matthews, I was struck by how Brokaw patted Matthews before his onslaught began. It reminded me of the way defense captains on football teams signal for a blitz.

You are right that Brokaw did stand with Chris. But he couldn't bring himself to say the word "racism". He couldn't and it most certainly is racism.

Brokaw was on Lawrence O'Donnell's show last night still maintaining that Romney talking about where he was born was just a "joke gone awkward." No. It wasn't. It might have been off the cuff but it was directed at the Birthers, without question.
