Chris Matthews: ‘The Hatred [GOP Candidates] Have For Barack Obama Is… So Far Off The Charts’

video
» 223 comments

On his show today, Chris Matthews looked at the strong rhetoric being used by the Republican presidential candidates against President Obama and asked if their strong hatred of the incumbent would have any effect on their party’s chances in the fall. Dan Rather predicted that the trend wouldn’t last long, and in order to have a good chance of winning the general election, the Republicans are going to have to tone down the rhetoric and move to the center in the general election.

RELATED: Chris Matthews: Only Way Romney Can Beat Gingrich Is To ‘Catch Up To Him With His Hatred Of Obama’

Katty Kay thought these debate moments of the GOP candidates thoroughly bashing Obama would come back in the general election and the Republican nominee would be faced with them in a presidential debate in the fall. But she suspected that the candidates are doing it all just for show.

“I’m not sure whether these guys actually hate Obama. I just think that the more extreme the primary gets, the more difficult it gets, the more unreal the debates become, because they’re having to shift so far right in order to scrabble over primary voters.”

New York Times White House correspondent Helene Cooper detected a small pivot in the party in an appeal to the center, citing Virginia’s recent compromise on a controversial transvaginal ultrasound, and a desire by the Republicans to not lose a whole bloc of women votes. Time writer Joe Klein said this is quite possibly the most negative race he has ever seen in decades of campaign coverage.

Matthews asked how much of the negative feelings held towards President Obama and his family will impact the rest of the presidential contest. Cooper predicted the Republicans will have a hard time walking back a lot of the personally negative things they have said about Obama in the past few months when confronted with it down the road. Matthews took out the “Matthews Meter,” showing that a slim majority of his most frequent guests believe the eventual Republican candidate will pivot towards the center during the general election.

Klein did not agree with this assessment, finding it hard to believe someone like Mitt Romney could possibly pivot on his immigration stance. He said that the Republicans “are living in an alternate universe where Rush Limbaugh is God.” Matthews asked Cooper whether the Obama administration is doing cartwheels yet or not, but Cooper said the White House is urging caution moving forward.

    I always laugh when his little panel of lefties comments on the republican nomination process.  Obama hates all conservatives/republicans, as is evidenced by his language – but since Chrissy feels the same way, that hatred is a-ok.

    Not a single republican candidate hates Obama, not one of them.  But since they don’t embrace his “redistribution of the wealth” policies, Matthews and his ilk claim “hatred”.

    Talk about off the charts idiocy.

    The Republican party’s history has shown that they have their frontrunner already sewn up by now. They unite behind that candidate.

    That’s not happening with these candidates. Voters still don’t know who they want. Why is that?

    Obama has continued every one of Bush’s terror tactics. Again its how the liberal media frames the issues. The dems and lib media were aligned in a media blitz to portray Bush as more evil than the terrorists we were fighting. Now the liberal media ignores, deflects for Obama and attacks Republicans on every silly thing like how many cars Romney has.

    Gee, we’ve run into a bit of rightwing hysteria on this thread. I really don’t think left people use the word ‘hate’ one tenth as much as rightwingers. I didn’t hate Nixon, Bush I or most Republicans, and I really don’t hate Bush II/Cheney although these two have done as much damage to the world and this country as anyone I can think of since Hitler, Stalin and Mao-Tse-Tung. What’s even more amazing, many rightwingers would vote for Bush/Cheney again!

    Whatever you want to call it the overreaction to Obama, a very conservative but capable Democrat, is one of the main reasons the Republicans are going into exile for at least the next 4 years.

    These are a bunch of President Obama vomits singing the same chorus. What’s new? Check out the word “hate”. Oh yes, whenever anyone criticizes President Obama, it automatically means you hate him. As if President Obama is God. As if Democrats did not say worse about President Bush. They even called Bush a murderer.

    Classic manipulation of words; hate President Obama? It’s politics. It’s not hate. They will rather use words that will depict Republicans as angry and evil. Word game.

    Hate is forcing people to do something against their religious belief. That’s the hate. Hate is finding ways to create division in religious organizations. God, health and money is the new President Obama way of trying to unite blacks with whites.You have to choose between your God, health or money to decide who you’d support in politics.

    Remember Senator Obama saying he would like to change the trajectory of this country, same way Ronald Reagan did. If you oppose President Obama, get ready to work ten times harder than the Democrats in other to defeat him. His legions are everywhere.

    Un Huh – Except that he voted for Bush in 2000 and was a loud Bush cheerleader for the first 5 years of his presidency, even gushing when he watched Bush get flown to the carrier in 2003, that he’d never been prouder of a president.  Also, his brother is a republican County commissioner in Pennsylvania.    So keep pushing the liberal idea until you realize that Matthews is a suck-up and fawning fan of whomever has the most political power at the moment.

    Until people realize that they shouldn’t be voting for queers and that they shouldn’t be associated with or facilitate systems that use queer and child abuse shame factors as control mechanisms then nothing will improve.

    There is legitimate evidence that says that Obama is queer. Do a search on: “Obama gay bath house”. Obama and Rahm Emanuel are lifetime members of the same Chicago gay bath house. This is according to informed sources in Chicago’s queer community and veteran political sources in the city.

    It’s this system that uses queer and child abuse shame factors that has caused many of the world’s most important problems.

    Why vote for queers, why vote for people facilitating a system that uses child abuse and queer shame factors unless you have it on you yourself?

     Which President Obama/ Occupy Wall Street candidate do you think have dug us out of the economic mess? Is it the one that says “change comes from the bottom up”? The one who supports Occupy Wall Street while bailing out multimillionaires? The one that promised Americans of “shovel ready projects”? The one that promised unemployment under 7%? The last time I checked Senator Obama was a legislator during the Bush era.

    Oh I forgot, he voted against the war or wars before he perpetuated them. Did Senator Obama vote against the rising housing market? Government had no direct involvement in the sub-prime mortgage loans! Thus, it was not Bush’s doing. The last I checked the economy is still in shambles. Please visit the empty malls in America. Abandoned business offices. Don’t believe the hype about a recovering economy.

    Fact: Obama has increased the debt by over $4.7 trillion in just over 3 years- Bush raised it $5 trillon over *, yes, 8 years. Obama has added debt at over 2Xsw that of Bus.

    Fact: Obama has had nothing but trillion $ deficits from year 1 on.

    Fact: gas was at $1.80 /gal when he took office- now it is $3.69/ gal- over 100% increase.

    Not sure how you would define “1 Marxist agenda” but, consider what someone else had posted: “For twenty years, Obama called the Trinity United Church of Christ his church home.  That church, under the leadership of the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, taught a religious doctrine known as Black Liberation Theology.  Black Liberation Theology has its roots in Marxism, and encourages a victim mentality among its followers.”

    So, if Obama has at least one so-described Marxist (or socialist) item on hs political agenda, it would not be so far fetched, considering his upbringing and associates. (e.g., his “fair share” whining)

     I think everyone is free to mingle and agree. But let’s loose the illusion that a man who’s Mother is a Muslim men junky, suddenly will be the bridge between blacks and whites.  President Obama have not the slightest idea of what black struggle is about.  Nor does he care about Whites. Remember his assertion that Prof. Gates was arrested because he’s black? My apologies. President idea of building bridges is  holding a beer summit. Change we can’t believe! “I will bring people together”… “I am a bridge builder”…”I unite people”… says President Obama. Who can forget “there’s no blue or red state, but one America… no White or Black America but one America”?

    President Obama have instead of building bridges, resulted in dividing America. President Obama is a Christian but he’d apologize to Muslims ’cause American soldiers burned  Qur’ans; these are books used to transmit vicious messages within the prison yards. It’s just a book, made available to them by American soldiers with American money. Well American soldiers have been killed! Human being versus a book. Hmm, Mr President.

    Our Christian President will force religious organizations to spend money on things that are against their beliefs. Apologize to Muslims for burned books. Pitch people against the Churches by having them choose between money, health and God. Spend our Christian tax money in rebuilding Muslim countries.

    Oh no! Whites and Blacks need to come together to throw this fool out of office. Except that most Black Americans a zombies! Thank God, I will stand with God before man.

I go to a Russian sauna in NYC frequented by ‘queers’. You should get it in your noggin that we lived in a mixed, democratic society where people mingle. Homosexuality is as normal and American as apple pie. Gay people have been with us since time immemorial. Get over it. Perversion is an equal opportunity sickness. Our pal, Sandusky is a pervert – being homosexual or heterosexual is no indication of sexual perversion. Do us all a favor and educate yourself. All you’re doing with your homophobia is indicated your bigotry and the real possibility that you are…gasp, gasp, gay!

    1. Real Christians
    2. The 2nd amendment, fast and furious
    3. low gas prices, he doubled them in just three years.
    4. Babies ( he supports roe v wade, over 50 million babies murdered because of people like him)
    5. NASA
    6.Religious Freedom, except when comes to muslims and ground zero mosques.
    7. Environment, his family takes separate 747s everywhere they go.
    8. Affordable food
    9. Women, he now forces them to serve in combat positions.
    10. And finally he hates all American children so much that he has placed them under $40,000 in debt apiece.

    Gany,

    I disagree – Sometimes Matthews calls people out in a way that other journalists don’t but I’ve watch him for too many years to overlook what seems to be his real POV:  Appearance and the horserace of American Politics is king, and much more important than policy or its impact on the lives of hundreds of millions. To the best packagers, argument framers and spinners go the spoils and those “winners” should be celebrated.  

    Matthews is the ultimate example of the guy who will go on for hours about the great hunting photo op, and what it shows the American People about a candidates manliness, but mow down a guest who wants to talk about S-Chip or Medicare Part D.   He got a tingle going up his leg for Obama during a well stagecrafted speech, and he stammered to G. Gordon Liddy of all people as they were looking live at Bush walking across the carrier in a flight suit in 2003 that ” I’ve never been prouder of a Commander in Chief”  – He also offered that he didn’t think Kerry, an actual combat veteran, could have carried off the same “moment”   - 

    There’s also a jaw dropping moment where the mic is live before an interview with Matthews where he fawns insanely over Tom Delay, telling him what an admirer he is, how much he owes him from past favors, then Matthews starts to trash Hillary Clinton to impress Delay, who actually doesn’t seem to really care one way or the other.

Tax Cuts and unfunded wars were initiated by Bush. Obama put the wars onto the budget at least, instead of hiding them in surplus funding acts.  

    As for Afghanistan being our ally, do you mean that the Taliban, who have controlled the vast majority of the country outside Kabul, were our ally?  Not since the Reagan Admin, when they were known as the Mujahadeen and we armed and trained them.

    Being “one of the best journalists on msnbc” isn’t much at all of an endorsement of Mathews. In fact, it’s doesn’t mean anything, IMHO. I suspect either you have a prejudice against FSN and O’Reilly to begin with, or you’re comfortable with being ignorant. Perhaps both. Either way, I’d suggest you take the time to actually consider FSN, rather than spouting off as an ignoramous. I’ve studied both msnbc and Fox, and in my educated opinion, Mathews is, more often than not, a decidedly unbalanced (both as a journalist and human being) person.

    Try to focus for a minute on the astoundingly bizarre claims these candidates make about the President.
    1. Gingrich accused the President of holding “Kenyan anti-colonial” views. A ridiculous statement that is full of dog whistle language.
    2. Santorum claims Obama doesn’t support religious freedom. Again, ridiculous. Couple that with his statement about Obama’s non biblical theology and you again have dog whistle language. An aside to that is Santorum’s misrepresentation of kennedy’s speech to the Baptist ministers. Either he’s deliberately lying or his reading comprehension sucks.
    3. Romney claims Obama “fought against” religion.

    These examples may not show racism on the part of the candidates but they certainly show a pandering to racist elements within the GOP. They reinforce the perception of Obama as the “other”. My guess is that Newt probably isn’t an outright racist. he probably thinks this is just the most effective way to get the nomination. Same goes for Romney. Santorum is simply blinded by his religious zealotry and no one could possibly live up to his standards. You can see it in the way he answers questions or gives speeches. His voice drips with disdain. He is a completely disagreeable unlikeable scold
