MSNBC's Matthews Asks Barney Frank Does Newt Gingrich 'Personify' Evil?
During what he billed as an "official exit interview" for retiring Rep. Barney Frank, Hardball host Chris Matthews asked the Massachusetts Democrat if he believes in good and evil and moreover, does he believe that "there's some people like Newt Gingrich that personify one side of this Manichean struggle in our life."
Frank, no fan of Gingrich, seemed taken aback by how strident Matthews feels about the former Republican Speaker of the House (video follows page break; MP3 audio here):
Well, I, let me say I really dislike Gingrich and disapprove of him and I think he's been a terrible influence. I wouldn't call him evil.... Hitler was evil, Saddam Hussein was evil, Stalin and many of his successors. Mugabe. I, I, I would put evil on people who do serious physical harm to their fellow human beings. Beyond that, yeah, we all are a mix of good and bad.
Matthews has repeatedly groused about the "Mephistophelian" nature of Gingrich, but maybe he's actually starting to believe the melodramatic prattle he's been spewing.

You really shouldn't insult Douchebags like that I mean what did they ever do to you. Besides Pissy Chrissy was having a fit because ole bend over Barney Fwank won't be around for him to cuddle with anymore..... That leaves Pissy Chrissy only Obama and fancy Nancy to suck up to.

Newt doesn't personify evil, that is what YOU and the rest of msdnc does for a living. Just shut the hel up..........please. You disgrace the human race.
Can Newt Gingrich Exorcise Barney Frank?

An old demon queen like Barney Frank knows to get out of town befor a Newt Gingrich gets into town.
A legitimate question

For an answer to a question like that you ask the most evil man in government. Maybe he should have asked Obabble though.

Well is name is 'Newt'...

Not exactly 'Hussein', but I can see where a dipsh*t like Matthews could get his metaphors mixed up.
BTW this Matthews guy is a really disgusting human being. Obama lapdog scumbag pos, punk... go away Chris!
And BTW (again).. ever notice how these guys just name call? What has Newt done to you? I can point to a sh*t load of stuff Bawney and Chrissy have done to destroy this country. Let's start with backing Obama the Destroyer of Nations.

Matthews talks so much, it's like he suffers from flight of ideas and has to race to get out the next thought before it escapes him.
I once sent him an email asking if he spoke during sex. He didn't respond. Go figure.
Once again, NB doesn't know how to edit.

Once again, NB doesn't know how to edit.
In the video, Frank said, "Beyond that, yeah, we all are a mix of good and bad. In Gingrich's case there's a heavy preponderance of the bad qualities."
But NewsBusters edited the the last sentence out of the transcription. It ended with, "Beyond that, yeah, we all are a mix of good and bad."
Please get a clue.
NB has a clue

That's why they post the video also. You need a clue. The MSM would cut the video, thats the the kind of scum they are. Lighten up bumpkin.

So Gingrich does not stack up

So Gingrich does not stack up to such evil persons like Stalin, Hussien and others. Gee Barney that is so kind of you to say. And while you were at it why did you not tell Mathews what a asinine question he asked.

Take a gander at that ugly face of his if you can stand it.

Evil?

I have never heard anyone say they thought Barney Frank was a nice guy. So how doyou ask that question of a guy like Frank?
Chris and Barney

I wonder how Chrissy felt being face to face with an actual teabagger. He loves using that new unpolitically correct term when referring to the Tea Party. Thrill up his leg? But whose leg?
Barney Frank

How in the hell can Matthews ask an evil person like Barney Frank if he thinks
Newt is Evil. Barney screwed up the housing market so bad that evil should be
spelled Barney. Matthews is such a bad anchor for MSNBC it is a wonder they keep him on the show. I bet after the show Barney gave Chris a really great
thrill. Too bad they can't put Barney in jail for what he did to our economy.

Lol, yea, these two should team up, the Leftist Tingling Newsboy and the Homosexual Corrupt Scumbag Demon! Both love nothing more than to gobble a goober as often as possible. Now Frank is retiring, better lock up all the boys, the fag is on the prowel! Bet we read more about him in the papers soon, probably get arrested for hanging out at little boy bathrooms. I was a lifelong Democrat until 2008, when the sickness of that Demonic Party got to be too much with the support of a NonAmerican!

I'd so love to get face time with him, just me and him,.. and I'm not the only one who want to get in his face about his lies, smears, insults, distortions and crass vulgar politics. If we ever have another civil war, it'll be because of little sacks of puss like him. Feeding the closet Himmler's in the socialist movement with their daily two minute hate.
Yeah,.. it's ALL THEIR FAULT that Barack O failed so miserably,
That Obama had no game doesn't even register with them. They still act as if he walks on water half the time.
