6. Matthews sounded like McCarthy, just as baiting and just as uninformed.

His verbiage has been of a nature that I find personally insulting, it seems to play up to some very nasty sets of bias and it reminds me that Matthews' wife is a centrist candidate right now and that he has never, ever been a decent ally to LGBT and that he was gung ho for Mission Accomplished Politics. He seems to be pushing an agenda that would increase his own family's power and wealth.
Plus I get sick of hearing about Tip O'Neil and Dutch Reagan, Chris' version of Butch and Sundance.
