Do you think maybe it’s possible that Chris Matthews sometimes says stupid crap (highly-technical economist terminology with which you rank amateurs may not be familiar) just so he’ll get a little attention from bloggers?
Seriously. No one smart enough to get a national cable TV show could possibly be stupid enough to say some of the stuff he says.
We would like to enter the following quote into evidence:
Matthews: You know, a great question, Charles, that wasn’t on my list to ask, but I’m going to ask you because you seem like a sophisticated guy of many parts. You think business can sit on those billions and trillions of dollars for two more years after they screw Obama this time? Are they going to keep sitting on their money so they don’t invest and help the economy for two long years to get Mr. Excitement Mitt Romney elected president? Will they do that to the country?
Sorry, Chris. There’s only one guy intentionally screwing the economy. Hint: His middle name is Hussein.
