So right, Chris. America is in another Great Depression. My neigbors are going out to eat at a fancy retaurant tonight. They had to make reservations or they wouldn't get a table. My brother just bought a new car. But, you are right Chris. A homeless drunk is on the soup line somewhere tonight. He was offered a job, but he'd have to work and that simply wouldn't do. America has been the land of "opportunity" both before and after the real Great Depression in '29 and it will stay that way. Sorry 'bout that, Chris (and Barry).

NEVER,NEVER trust a "liberal"

"MATTHEWS: Just don't let the cavalry attack after the massacre. I just hope they get there in time. "

"I just hope"???? I believe Chris Matthews is on the DNC payroll. I am positive that Chrissy is taking money from the DNC on the side. I believe MSNBC would fire his butt, except for the fact that they don't have anyone else who can generate even HIS dismal ratings, so they are stuck with a member of the DNC on their payroll.

Why do they keep simplifying what McCain said? He never said the ecnomy was hunky dory, in fact he said these are 'very, very difficult times'. Libs always sieze on the on a few words and ignore everything else that does not suit their needs.

Note that the dropping food prices and gasoline costs are not seen as good news, no, they are lumped together with everything else as evidence of the "turmoil."

Chris Matthews sounds like a Hoover. He sucks! Wait a few minutes, you'll get it.

Herbert Hoover

Son of a Quaker blacksmith, Herbert Clark Hoover brought to the Presidency an unparalleled reputation for public service as an engineer, administrator, and humanitarian.

Born in an Iowa village in 1874, he grew up in Oregon. He enrolled at Stanford University when it opened in 1891, graduating as a mining engineer.

He married his Stanford sweetheart, Lou Henry, and they went to China, where he worked for a private corporation as China's leading engineer. In June 1900 the Boxer Rebellion caught the Hoovers in Tientsin. For almost a month the settlement was under heavy fire. While his wife worked in the hospitals, Hoover directed the building of barricades, and once risked his life rescuing Chinese children.

One week before Hoover celebrated his 40th birthday in London, Germany declared war on France, and the American Consul General asked his help in getting stranded tourists home. In six weeks his committee helped 120,000 Americans return to the United States. Next Hoover turned to a far more difficult task, to feed Belgium, which had been overrun by the German army.

After the United States entered the war, President Wilson appointed Hoover head of the Food Administration. He succeeded in cutting consumption of foods needed overseas and avoided rationing at home, yet kept the Allies fed.

After the Armistice, Hoover, a member of the Supreme Economic Council and head of the American Relief Administration, organized shipments of food for starving millions in central Europe. He extended aid to famine-stricken Soviet Russia in 1921. When a critic inquired if he was not thus helping Bolshevism, Hoover retorted, "Twenty million people are starving. Whatever their politics, they shall be fed!"

After capably serving as Secretary of Commerce under Presidents Harding and Coolidge, Hoover became the Republican Presidential nominee in 1928. He said then: "We in America today are nearer to the final triumph over poverty than ever before in the history of any land." His election seemed to ensure prosperity. Yet within months the stock market crashed, and the Nation spiraled downward into depression.

After the crash Hoover announced that while he would keep the Federal budget balanced, he would cut taxes and expand public works spending.

In 1931 repercussions from Europe deepened the crisis, even though the President presented to Congress a program asking for creation of the Reconstruction Finance Corporation to aid business, additional help for farmers facing mortgage foreclosures, banking reform, a loan to states for feeding the unemployed, expansion of public works, and drastic governmental economy.

At the same time he reiterated his view that while people must not suffer from hunger and cold, caring for them must be primarily a local and voluntary responsibility.

His opponents in Congress, who he felt were sabotaging his program for their own political gain, unfairly painted him as a callous and cruel President. Hoover became the scapegoat for the depression and was badly defeated in 1932. In the 1930's he became a powerful critic of the New Deal, warning against tendencies toward statism.

In 1947 President Truman appointed Hoover to a commission, which elected him chairman, to reorganize the Executive Departments. He was appointed chairman of a similar commission by President Eisenhower in 1953. Many economies resulted from both commissions' recommendations. Over the years, Hoover wrote many articles and books, one of which he was working on when he died at 90 in New York City on October 20, 1964.

MATTHEWS: Why does your candidate not ring the alarm bell? Why do we not hear a political code red out of him?

Hey Matthews, thats all the economy needs right now, our politicians running around with their hair on fire ranting against the economy. I want my politicians to be cool and calm with economic news like this. What you are suggesting can only do more harm. Sen. McCain did the correct thing. Obama is wrong, but of course he's doing it for political gain.

Mister we could use a man like Herbert Hoover againnnn....

>>>CHRIS MATTHEWS: . . . So is it fundamentally good politics to say, with the stock market plunging, that things are hunky-dory?

No, . . . with the markets plunging  (markets which live and die NOT upon cold, hard fact, and retrospective analysis - but upon feelings and second by second emotional reactions)  it is FAR better to scream "THE SKY IS FALLING" and "HEAD FOR THE HILLS" and "WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!" then to have some cool-headed, rational leadership.

Chris Matthews would have us believe that when he says these immeasurably dumb things, that he is simply trying to get some reaction, and to stir up the debate.

But, nope!  He's just a moron.

Buts even funnier is how they never mention the real reason why these failures keep occuring.

Stupid people and ignorance. Ignorance is the most expensive noun in the world.

The economy overall is good. Inflation is hitting a little, but that's because it has been relatively stagnant for the last few years. Eneryg is expensive because Mathews ilk broke Congress with out allowing us to get our own oil. Food is going up because of the lack of oil due to no offshore drilling(its got to be transported) and Mathews ilk also forced us to make our food crops into energy crops. HMMMMMM....mathews talk about that.

Also just because there is a generation of Americans that think that little plastic card in thier purse/wallet is free money doesn't mean the economy is bad. It means people are irresponsible. That goes the same for the mortgage crunch. Ignorance and stupidity are now biting people in the ass. They didn't read thier loans adn the banks were dumb enough to give them out. Once again if the government would of never dipped their hands in the cookie jar.....this all could've been avoided. When banks weren't forced to make  loans for people who shouldn't have loans this crap didn't happen. When people knew how to manage cash flow and not just swipe a card....this didn'nt happen. You want to fix the problem Mathews  slap the 40-60% of Americans around that think credit cards are a magic source of cash. They walk around swiping until denied. Then pull out the next one and do the same....then again, then again, then again, then again, then again....until they cry to Uncle Sam and get bailed out with a chapter thirteen and a foreclosure.

Then Mathews good Amercians like myself and many others on this board pay the price. Why? Because we know how to work and spend the right way.....

Sorry for the rant guys but I feel better now.

He tries to be sneaky, with his clever arguments which to me (a highschooled  bufoone) seem 8th grade at best. Remember  last election? When he had the name Mccain tatooed on his inner thigh? OOOOOH He couldn't get enough John Mccain. Remember?? The only reason he courted John Mccain in 2004 was because he wanted BUSH to lose. Anyone who really watches him can see his horns right under the surface of his wispy reseeding hair line. Him and Heir UBBERMANN should elope. Like Sulu and his man. Most West coasters have no stomach for these kind of phonies.NOBAMA08.

I think Matthews sounds (and looks) like John Murtha.
