    Chris Matthews, a simple minded moron who fights for scraps from his puppet master’s table. Pray tell what price he found worthy to betray all that is good in this country. I imagine if Obama loses the 2012 election, it will be a obvious blatant case of racism. Chris Matthews, merely a pawn in Obama’s game of controlling America and pushing us closer to a world socialist state. Of course it will never happen and I think despite the best efforts of George Soros and Obama the will of the American people prevailed. It will also prevail in 2012 and then perhaps scumbags like Chris and MSNBC will just slip away into some black hole where all socialists end up.

    If Obama wants to be treated with dignity, he needs to be dignified! He is a petty name calling, knee jerk person that is so disconnected from Americans! I have no problem with his trip, I have a problem with 40 air planes and dragging 3,000 people along for the ride on our tax dollars. Why is he taking all the CEO’s of companies with him. Since when does the President get this deeply involved with individual companies? I can see trade agreements on their behalf, but this is just to much government in private sector to make me fell warm and fuzzy!

    If it is so unsafe that he has to have war ships, a mile long tunnel and coconuts removed from the trees, why go there? We have computer, face to face communication…

The tingles are creeping up to his brain and keeping him from rational thought. Will he go through withdrawal if Obama loses in 2012? Perhaps he will volunteer to be a butler for him so he can be close to him on a regular basis and tingle daily.

      Hey Chris – since you seem to have the ear of the White House, why don’t you ask them exactly why divulging the actual cost of the trip is a security concern? They said the price wasn’t accurate, but they won’t go on record as to how much it will actually cost. Do you really think terrorists will be able to tell what the security plans are by the White House giving us an setimate of the cost? Americans have a big problem with expensive trips with no real adgenda, other than our POTUS wants to see the Festival of Lights. If he thinks Americans will buy his adgenda of opening up world markets so we can export goods, he is a moron – we have priced ourselves out of the global market. Anything India wants from us, they can buy at 1/4 the price right there at home or from China.

      President Obama will meet American CEOs on his trip to India next month, the White House says.

      White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki e-mails: “The President will meet with a group of U.S. CEO’s in India to discuss the opportunities and challenges of doing business in India. These will include, among others, David Cote of Honeywell, Jeffrey Immelt of GE, Terry McGraw of the Mcgraw Hill Companies, Jim McNerney of Boeing and Indra Nooyi of Pepsico. The President and Secretary Locke will also speak at the USIBC-sponsored Business Summit.”

      Those who support President Obama’s agenda claim that it is racist to oppose that agenda!

      Is the book “Atlas Shrugged” racist?

      The book, “ATLAS SHRUGGED” by Ayn Rand was published in 1957. The book refutes tyranny, including Mr. Obama’s particular brand of oppression. She proves conclusively that individual freedom is the basis for prosperity and that tyranny produces only poverty and despair. Individual freedom, of course is in direct conflict with the “CHANGE YOU CAN BELIEVE IN” and all of Mr. Obama’s programs.

      Was “ATLAS SHRUGGED” racist when it was published in 1957 or did it become racist when Obama elected President? Perhaps, “ATLAS SHRUGGED became a racist book when we learned what Mr. Obama’s “CHANGE YOU CAN BELIEVE IN” actually is?

      No. They can’t come up with anything else. They have no facts to argue on and the policies they push have all been tried and rejected or tried ending in failure. They are reduced to name calling and making things up such as the race issue. In their mind all they see when they look at a conservative is a bunch of white men in sheets dancing around a flaming cross. The few times any respectable liberal media person(I know it’s an oxymoron) has attended a conservative or tea party event they come away praising how well structured the event was. No word on the message of course, but at least we get credit for being well behaved. Unnfortunately for all of us they tend to embrace the biggest racists on the planet. People like Al Sharpton and Keith Olbermann. Not because of the message they send but because they hate the “racist white conservatives” who were in power 60 years ago.

      It has been my experience in life that people will accuse others of doing things they themselves would do. If we question an unnecessary expenditure of the President, it is because we are blah, blah, blah, blah. See, they’ve figured it all out. There is nowhere to hide, these people can read our minds. And this is what makes them so important. They wiill always be calling “good” evil, and “evil” good. They are what they eat.

      Why should they when it works so well?! We hate being called racists and since it has no basis in reality we can’t prove them wrong. Their mistake is that they bandy the racist label around so much that they expose their baselessness by labeling people racist who are widely respected by other liberals/progressives and lose credibility with their own base.

      I am so tired of the same old rhetoric–on both sides. Chris Matthews is particularly boring, because he is so predictable. I hope he fades away like the dinosaur that he is. He is truly inconsequential and meaningless because he is so out of touch with what most Americans are thinking and reacting too. It is obvious that the media outlets that retain the services of Chris and his ilk are going to have to adapt and rid themselves of this strictly projecting this ideology or go broke. We are not listening to Chris in a serious way.

      You must remember, they have no other means of reasoning.

      That’s all they have…and it’s all in their minds. So they use race over and over again since they must know by now we’ve been right on everything else.

      Can someone pleeeeese wake up Chris Mattews and tell him it’s 2010? Who is thinking race any more? All of us are thinking -ECONOMIC SURVIVAL- out here in the hinterland…..For myself, I didn’t even think about his claim until HE BROUGHT UP THE tired race card???? And it still doesn’t apply… OLD NEWS Mathews. Really old news. Like Roman times…..Chris Mathews ideology, his point of view, the things he finds relevent, aren’t. SIlly elitist.
