| On the same night he apologized for making a horribly inappropriate comment about Hurricane Sandy, Chris Matthews on Wednesday had Bill Maher on Hardball to compare Karl Rove and Republicans to Nazis. After Matthews wondered about Rove's erroneous predictions, the liberal comic mocked, "It was a little Hitler's bunker, wasn't it? I wanted to rush in with a cyanide capsule there. I thought he was going to say, 'I don't want to live in a world without national socialism.'" [See video below. MP3 audio here.] Matthews himself got into the act, comparing Rove to Muhammad Saeed al-Sahhaf,

This guy was semi reasonable during the Clinton years and honest and sane part of the time. Msnbc will reward him with this comment, not punish him.

I don't get it, I watched the clip of Karl Rove, and I do not think he was over the top at all! I have no idea what they were watching...
That being said, the comments that come from Maher and Matthews are deplorable, disgusting, and SO inappropriate. I wish they didn't have a platform to spew their hatred.

Matherws never said I'm sorry or I apologize. Wasn't there an incident recently where someone didn't say those words and was hammered for it?
By the way, those republican guys running for the senate who made comments about rape and abortion apologized repeatedly and were never forgiven by Mathews or the jerks on MSNBC.

I pity Matthews . He is one of those 'recovering alcoholics and catholics' who gave up drinking, not because he hit bottom but because he was faced with an ultimatum. He hates himself and is too self- involved, like Maher, to understand that most people see through them. 15...14..13..12...

I'm curious. I see how networks such as Fox will remain busy and relevant for the next four years as we claw our way through this second term, but I don't see how networks such as MSNBC and CNN will survive. Their water-carrying talents are not needed now. I don't know how they will be relevant to an electorate that is satisfied with last night's victory and just wants to see what Snookie is doing while they recooperate from their latest abortion.

Queer Nation is in charge, and they're not just queer as in gay. They're queer as in extremely strange. Very very queer people.

Only those of us who lived through World War II and witnessed the G I troops liberating the camps and what they found...we see no humor in using the terms Hitler, Nazis, etc. associated with comedy. Mr. Maher and Mr. Matthews, neither who experienced this first hand have even an idea of good taste. I say to them, "Shame upon your house".

Karl Rove is such an inviting target. It was Karl Rove's idea to offer seniors more drug largesse in 2004. He thinks he is so smart, but he has damaged the Republican brand more than any other person. I wish Karl Rove had disappeared from the scene many years ago.

#18-Economic rules still apply to them. We need to stop posting articles about their sillyness. It just encourages people to go to their train wreck shows. Our conservative talk show hosts need to stop giving them free advertising. How would you like to have your business mentioned daily by Rush, Sean, Mark, etc? Now there IS an ''obscene commercial break''! Starve them and the newspapers and the news weeklys.

One of the things I learned in AA is that there's a HUGE difference between being "dry" and being "sober". Sober people are in recovery and are working hard to change everything about their lives and making amends to those whom they've harmed through their drinking. Dry people are simply not drinking and are angry and bitter about it. They make everyone around them miserable, they are resentful about not being able to drink and see themselves as victims. Matthews is dry.

It is obvious that none of the liberals have read Sun Tzu. They only seem to know Alinski, ridiculing their enemies when they are victorious.
When you have bested your enemies, you don't taunt them (unless you are Islamofascist -you just can't help yourself from mutilating dead enemies). You only get them motivated to fight to the death and not help your cause in the long run. The death of conservatism has been repeatedly foretold, but if the Tea Party rallies bears any resembles to reality, I think the rumor of it's death is premature. Team Obama has just sealed the fate of the next Dem candidate with their big mouths. The next fight will see even more conservatives signing up for the cause. This is not rosy optimism - this is a logical expectation of the coming years as the malignant narcissist Obama misread his victory for license to kill capitalism in America. I have faith that when the going gets tough, the tough, courageous people of America will say-"Let's roll!"

Schools and police stations were burning in Stockholm as violent riots continued for a fifth consecutive night. Emergency services were called to 70 separate incidents, including two torched primary schools, burning shops and a destroyed library building also housing a local police unit. Despite police claiming that the situation is beginning to calm down, critics say the riots were unavoidable after years of widening social gaps in a country which has the highest proportion of foreign-born citizens in Scandinavia.

Zachary Fardon would take over an office that has made its mark nationally by putting crooked government officials behind bars but increasingly faces pressure to do more to help in the fight against Chicago´s violent street gangs.

The new details are revealed in a court filing detailing a back and forth between the Justice Department and the federal judges who oversaw the request to search a Gmail account belonging to Rosen, a reporter for Fox News.

As Democrats and the media continue to hammer Virginia lieutenant governor hopeful E.W. Jackson for his past comments on social issues, the Christian minister says he is battling what he calls the “mainstream media’s caricature” of him. In an email sent to The Daily Caller this week, the running mate to Republican gubernatorial candidate Ken Cuccinelli said “every one of those comments has a context and were spoken in my role as a minister, not as a candidate.” In particular, the black Republican took issue with the media’s outrage over his comments on abortion.

But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy.

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration´s talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs. Nuland, a career foreign service officer who was until recently State´s top spokesperson, had long been expected to be nominated the post to replace Philip Gordon, who Obama picked to serve as Middle East coordinator for the National Security Council. Nuland´s nomination -- which requires Senate confirmation -- could come under scrutiny from Republicans who see her as playing a central role in shaping

Conservative radio host Mark Levin is very skeptical of the idea that President Obama had absolutely no idea about the IRS tea party targeting before the story broke in the news mere weeks ago. Levin declared adamantly that it is a “flat-out, bald-faced lie” that Obama didn’t know beforehand, citing prior reports by a few conservative news outlets picking up on the news well before the 2012 presidential election. Levin said, “I don’t believe for two seconds that Obama wasn’t aware of this.”

Anthony Weiner’s New York mayoral candidacy was only made more improbable today after he revealed that he visited a Houston psychiatric facility following his resignation from Congress in 2011. Haunted by scandal surrounding his sexually explicit online communications with women, the Democratic former congressman sought treatment for his compulsive behavior from mental health professionals at the Gabbard Center. According to its website, the facility provides “3-day outpatient psychiatric evaluation,” particularly to “professionals who are in personal or professional crises.” While Weiner did not disclose
