Chris Matthews, in the wake of the Tucson shootings, went on a tear against the likes of Sarah Palin who used what he called “gun play” language, yet on Wednesday’s Hardball, Matthews uttered phrases against public figures that he, himself, would’ve considered incendiary had a conservative said them.
In his “Let Me Finish” segment Matthews issued a “call to arms” against George W. Bush, Donald Rumsfeld and others who were responsible for the “unpatriotic way this country was marched to war.” Matthews then proceeded to give out the Capitol Switchboard phone number, urged his viewers to call their senator and instructed them on what to say, before concluding his rant with a demand for “nationally televised hearings” to find out why the Bush administration started “a war for a reason they knew wasn’t true.”

[Considering that EVERY single senator, rep and national leader and I might add, you and your talkinghead buddies, SAID Iraq had WMD, your rant is blatantly hypocritical Matthews….]
