Chris Matthews hits new low.....

Wow. Quite unbelievable. Now, I must admit I am not a Chris Matthews fan, but I still did not expect this ....

TORONTO — Years after 9-11 and the “crazy Zeitgeist” that permeated the United States, Americans have still not learned to know their enemies instead of just hating them, said American political journalist Chris Matthews yesterday.

In a speech to political science students at the University of Toronto, the host of the CNBC current affairs show Hardball had plenty of harsh words for U.S. President George W. Bush, as well as the political climate that has characterized his country for the last few years.

“The period between 9-11 and (invading) Iraq was not a good time for America. There wasn’t a robust discussion of what we were doing,” Matthews said.”If we stop trying to figure out the other side, we’ve given up. The person on the other side is not evil. They just have a different perspective.

“The smartest people understand the enemy’s point of view, because they understand what’s driving them.”

Matthews is a bigger loser than I thought. Disgusting.
