Rachel Maddow Is NOT Happy With Obama’s Kind Words For Former President Bush

VIDEO
» 82 comments

The backlash to President Obama’s Oval Office Iraq speech has begun – and so far, one of the toughest critics is Rachel Maddow. Maddow talked with Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann in the speech’s immediate aftermath, and reserved especially harsh judgment for Obama’s praise of former President George W. Bush.

Maddow shared this sentiment while the three like-minded pundits discussed a question from Olbermann about whether the speech was “too much in the middle.” Matthews responded first, by saying Obama is in the middle, which he called “a hard thing to do, to go to the center on a war.” Matthews did, however, say that “there [were] very few arguments made for this war that were ever held out to be true, ever” – while noting his, Olbermann’s, and Maddow’s “pretty smart view on this war from the beginning.”

Olbermann then read aloud Obama’s complimentary words for Bush:

“This afternoon, I spoke to former President George W. Bush. It’s well known that he and I disagreed about the war from its outset. Yet no one could doubt President Bush’s support for our troops, or his love of country and commitment to our security.”

…to which Maddow said:”I think we shouldn’t get past how remarkable it is, how much the proponents of the Iraq war are getting off easy.” She went on to rip “the recklessness with which President Bush discarded…national security in favor of this war of choice, which only diminished our security, and then, the big finish:

“To talk about [Bush] having a demonstrated commitment to our security, having started this war on the terms on which he started it – I mean, it’s beyond restraint from president Obama, and anyone in the pro-Iraq war, pro-Bush camp who doesn’t feel like they’ve been given the greatest political present they never deserved was not listening to this speech.”

Yes, praising Bush was apparently meant to be conciliatory, that Obama can reach out to both sides and be, as Matthews said, in the middle. But it’s a move that’s unlikely to win over any detractors, and certainly didn’t win him any points from Maddow. Calvin & Hobbes was right: a good compromise leaves everybody mad.

    Of course Rachel is unhappy with anyone saying anything kind about George Bush. Heck, I just turned on her show a few days ago, and heard her attacking George Bush’s skill in riding a bicycle, his lack of rapport with the horses on his ranch, and other infantile stuff of this sort. Smears and insults are her stock in trade.

    And it’s clear why. If she ever gave up the personal attacks, she might actually be forced to defend her advocacy of big government, out-of-control spending and federal micro-management of our day-to-day lives. And you know she doesn’t want to ‘fess up to those things, eve if they are her core beliefs. The one thing you will never see from Rachel Maddow is a honest and open debate over the size and scope of government. But you will find her engaging in character attacks every night of the week.

    Unrelated, but I tortured myself and watched a few minutes of Mad Cow tonight. She was going on about Angle calling her and her dynamic duo out in an email and called it pathetic. So, i think Mediaite should do a story on how Maddow in a round about way called Obama and any other Dumbocrat pathetic by attacking Beck, Limbaugh, and Hannity. Seriously, if that is the best an Oxford education can get you I will stick with my Big Ten education as vastly superior.

  • mikepower

    Maddow is an idiot. She doesn’t realize Obama knows this will result in Iran eventually invading Iraq. So he is setting the stage to make W wear the invasion rather than have everyone blame his decision to get out early and telling the Iranians what he is going to do.

    He didn’t have to call Bush. It has been his baby for almost 2 years now and he was elected with ending the war as part of his platform.

    Except maybe if he wanted to keep the Bush connection for when his plan goes down the dumper. Looks like Bush bought it hook line and sinker. He would have hung up on Obama if he was a wiser man but W isn’t.

    Karl FTW, once again.

  • Bunny

    Not sure why some can’t vehemently disagree with Bush’s reasons for the Iraqi war and at the same time give the benefit of the doubt that he really thought he was doing what was best. I disagree very much with the way that war was run, but I don’t think Bush had nefarious, hateful reasons for going ahead with it. I think he was misled and horribly mistaken. However, that he was wrong (extremely wrong) about some aspects doesn’t make him inherently evil.

    The hate that is shot back and forth between pundits and parties these days is really disturbing to me. I honestly think a lot of it has to do with all the online bickering, where people are free to anonymously be as rude and hateful as they possibly can be. It gains momentum and spills over into and influences political discourse in the media and in government.

    The President looked like he was in a dentist’s seat last night, the way his body language showed he doesn’t believe in either one of these wars!

    Whatever got us into the war, Bush handed this guy a stable, and dramaticlly more secure country.
    All Obama had to do is NOT set a withdrawl date, and get the political leadership there under control, which was already underway (successful elections, etc.).

    But Obama is an ideologue, so he puts in the like-minded, and total incompetent lefty, Richard Holbrook to oversee the situation.

    WELL HOW’S THAT SITUATION NOW?

  • The Real Royal King

    I thought the speech hit the right tone on all levels. The gravitas, the soberness, the appreciation, the empathy, the graciousness. This is the President Obama so many Americans like.

    I do understand what Ms. Maddow is saying, and I have the harshest criticism for W and his conduct of this war. I tend to think, Dick, Donnie and Condi ought to be in a war crimes prison in the Netherlands. However appealing that might be, President Obama understands that we have to move ahead, we can’t let the eggregious wrongs of his predecessor Administration sidetrack him. That’s called leadership.

    That is the stupidest thing I have read on this form, Why would the Iranians Invade Iraq, they have allies in the Shiite parties in power. W handed it to them on a silver platter and removed their enemy Saddam. Iran has not invaded anyone in a long, long, long time, That is what Israel and America does not the Iranians.

    Wow. Good one.

  • Alz

    Here’s a list of what Dem’s said about Sadaam/. Gee, do y athink the media is biased? As for Maddow, she’s just as insane as Olbermann.

    http://www.snopes.com/politics/war/wmdquotes.asp

    Just a few of the quotes (yes, these are all Democrats!):

    “One way or the other, we are determined to deny Iraq the capacity to develop weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them. That is our bottom line.”
    President Clinton, Feb. 4, 1998.

    “If Saddam rejects peace and we have to use force, our purpose is clear. We want to seriously diminish the threat posed by Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction program.”
    President Clinton, Feb. 17, 1998.

    “Iraq is a long way from [here], but what happens there matters a great deal here. For the risks that the leaders of a rogue state will use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons against us or our allies is the greatest security threat we face.”
    Madeline Albright, Feb 18, 1998.

    “He will use those weapons of mass destruction again, as he has ten times since 1983.”
    Sandy Berger, Clinton National Security Adviser, Feb, 18, 1998

    “[W]e urge you, after consulting with Congress, and consistent with the U.S. Constitution and laws, to take necessary actions (including, if appropriate, air and missile strikes on suspect Iraqi sites) to respond effectively to the threat posed by Iraq’s refusal to end its weapons of mass destruction programs.”
    Letter to President Clinton, signed by Sens. Carl Levin, Tom Daschle, John Kerry, and others Oct. 9, 1998.

    “Saddam Hussein has been engaged in the development of weapons of mass destruction technology which is a threat to countries in the region and he has made a mockery of the weapons inspection process.”
    Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D, CA), Dec. 16, 1998.

    “Hussein has … chosen to spend his money on building weapons of mass destruction and palaces for his cronies.”
    Madeline Albright, Clinton Secretary of State, Nov. 10, 1999.

    “There is no doubt that . Saddam Hussein has reinvigorated his weapons programs. Reports indicate that biological, chemical and nuclear programs continue apace and may be back to pre-Gulf War status. In addition, Saddam continues to redefine delivery systems and is doubtless using the cover of a licit missile program to develop longer-range missiles that will threaten the United States and our allies.”
    Letter to President Bush, Signed by Sen. Bob Graham (D, FL,) and others, Dec, 5, 2001.

    “We begin with the common belief that Saddam Hussein is a tyrant and a threat to the peace and stability of the region. He has ignored the mandate of the United Nations and is building weapons of mass destruction and the means of delivering them.”
    Sen. Carl Levin (d, MI), Sept. 19, 2002.

    “We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country.”
    Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002.

    “Iraq’s search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power.”
    Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002.

    So, as you can see, they all lied.

    It will be many years before we can live down the immorality of our invasion of Iraq. I’m sure that you reactionaries out there don’t even understand what I’m saying. Everyone alive and breathing for a year before we invaded knew what was going on. There were no WMD’s – it was all concocted by Bush and the neo-cons with the help of many Dems. This was even a bigger foreign policy blunder than Vietnam (and that was bad enough). Millions of us were out on the streets in every major city in the world. I was almost arrested in Manhattan in a demonstration where there were over 400,000 real people marching. It doesn’t faze you that we virtually destroyed a country and killed hundreds of thousands of mostly innocent civilians plus over 4,000 of our precious soldiers for a whim and some oil money. Bush, Cheney, Wolfowitz and the whole neo-con crowd should be in prison for crimes against humanity, and all you can do is shout Obama is a Muslim and attack Rachel Maddow for being a Lesbian. Shame on you idiots.

  • Alz

    ganymede, your information is mostly wrong. The Left was to blame for destrying our ability to fight in Vietnam too.

    How many people died in Vietnam (and Cambodia) due to liberalism??? Pol Pot came to power because we left.

    As for WMD’s, that wasn’t the only reason we went in. You should do some research instead of relying on liberal rhetoric. It was about terrorism, not necessarily about 9/11. The idea was to helpo create some semblance of democracy to be a foil to Iran and to help the region. As usual, the liberals thwarted the idea of helping people escape tyranny and they (the liberals) were as big an enemy as the terrorists to the US.

    Just read some alternate sources.

    As for Maddow, she is just as clueless. See my post above about what liberals said about Sadaam.
