Chris Matthews Compares Sandra Fluke to Martin Luther King’s Widow

During tonight’s Super Tuesday coverage, Chris Matthews made a comparison that could raise eyebrows among not just conservatives, but also among civil rights leaders. In discussing the recent controversy over Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke, Matthews compared the moment when President Obama called Fluke to another Presidential call to an activist. That activist? None other than Coretta Scott King, the wife of Martin Luther King, who received a call from President John F. Kennedy (then a Senator) after her husband was arrested in Georgia. Here’s the video and quote from Matthews:
I think the call from the President to Sandra Fluke will be remembered perhaps not as dramatically as the call from President Kennedy, then-Senator Kennedy, to Mrs. King, to Coretta King after her husband was hauled off into the backwoods of Georgia in shackles.
There are, of course, differences between this:
And this:
The comparison is just the latest of many that liberal commentators have made between Obama and Kennedy, who Matthews himself called “the last Kennedy brother.”

Posted on March 7, 2012 at 1:03amChris Pissdownhisleg Matthews – ah what an ass. What can I say that would be more reprehensible, more disgusting, ignorant and plain stupid than what little sparks of brain fart signal running around in Matthews’ small cranium? Hmm, I think this is a major monster sized challenge. To come up with something more miserable, more total bovine fecal in nature than Pissleg Chris. Hey Chris why do you keep your first name? It’s the first 5 letters of Christ, a figure you deplore. Is it really Christopher which could mean ‘Christ Bearer’? May this haunt you for life.

Posted on March 7, 2012 at 10:08amWhy use Mrs. King as a compairson? There is no compairson between the two. The civil rights movement has nothing to do with a woman wanting to have as much sex as possible. The only reason to use this compairson is that no one would listen or read what he says otherwise. Oh, yes Chris talks to hear his head rattle.

Posted on March 7, 2012 at 4:45pmJust OPEN your mouth Chris and make a fool of yourself. Keep it closed and make us wonder.
If you can’t see the difference between this ##### and Dr. King, I’d like to help you see the difference.
Dr. King was for good and a Christian, this woman was trying to pull a fraudulent dirty deed in her testimony alluding to the fact that only #####’s attend Georgetown, giving them a disreputable name.
Her goal was to get a Catholic University to pay for students sex. She’s pushing Abortions and the newest thing I read, she’s also wanting our insurance to pay for sex changes.
Now (tingle) Chris, as a Catholic you don‘t seem to embrace your own church’s teachings. Why?

Posted on March 7, 2012 at 3:50amagree. He has lost his mind over the years. aside from the bush derangement syndrome, his political gay love of BHO is just wierd. Years ago he was somewhat reasonable, (over 12 yrs ago) when he actually hosted Rush’s show for a day. Now???????? He has no reason or logic. He’s a liberal woman for the most part; and I don’t mean to insult liberal women to that extent. He has become a pathetically, dishonest, out of touch, arrogant, loser who needs to go away. Retire and write you bs memoirs; or you could man up! Don’t see that happening.

Let me ask women, are you all so obsessed with reproduction that you can’t focus on any other issue? If not, then how come so many fall for the siren song of “reproductive rights” every time?

Posted on March 6, 2012 at 11:10pmWipe the spit off your chin, Mathews
& recognize the truth, as it REALLY is…
NO woman was hounded, humiliated & insulted more, by the Liberal goons,
than Sarah Palin & it continues, to this day.
Your comparison to Coretta King’s phone call is insanely hysterical.
There’s NO comparison.
Fluke was a set-up from the start.
Obama, Pelosi, Valerie Ferret, Asselrod, Plouffe, Dunn & Co.
were using her from the get-go.
They are fanatics at “Baiting” people, they used Fluke as a snare,
to drag in woman voters.
Fluke used them for a historical footnote…she complied & it backfired.
The skinny on her history of radical activism, lies & schemes
was uncovered in no time…why didn’t you report THOSE facts ?
NO intelligent woman wants to be snared, used & ridiculed for ANY reason-
least of them, being her vote.
Obama’s record of working with women is atrocious-
someday, they WILL spill the beans.
So, to see him pull this crap, flies in the face of his deep “concern” for women.
He’s a lying, manipulative SKUNK !
He’d call a barfly, if he could snare a vote-
funny thing, Mathews would be sloshed & slumped, at the end of the same bar.
He is so desperate, he’s lost ALL logic.
Belly up to the bar, buddy & drown your sorrows-
your miserable, failure of a ToyBoy is OUT of office, come 2012.
Show some dignity & respect for the country,
that allows you to bluster n’ bloviate, night after night…with no audience.

Posted on March 7, 2012 at 12:03amYou almost have to wonder if he spends his days thinking up these ridiculous analogies waiting for the appropriate time to spew forth with them. I’ve always wondered if Chris “has something” on the execs at MSNBC. He has the worst ratings of anyone working there and he’s been on for years. Leave him there. They would just fill the airtime with some other liberal idiot. As it is now his legacy will always be the “tingly feeling comment” which will only become more notorious as more Americans come to realize what a moron Obama is.

Too bad Chris Mathews mom didn’t spend that much on BC, then we wouldn’t hear about tingles and Bro-Love. Mr Mathews, please, stop courting sluts, Sandra and Barrack, they just aren’t into little troll boys who smell their own farts.
