Chris Matthews, of all people, blew the doors off the Democrat’s slime machine that now has its sites on Samual Alito. Rush Limbuagh covered it yesterday:
CALLER: Good. I just saw the Chris Matthews talk with Dean last night, and Chris Matthews is blasting Dean about being anti-Italian, the ethnic issue, and Dean was trying to say that he lost -- as a prosecutor -- he lost some cases. I'm just wondering if you had seen that.
RUSH: Well, we have the audio of this-- and I must confess I don't watch this show. I only hear about it from people who get agitated when they watch this show. I pay people to watch this show. I like a positive outlook on life. If I watched this stuff every night, I'd be as fit to be tied as a lot of other people are. So I don't watch it. But I have enough here to get an idea what happened. We have the audio sound bites. Howard Dean was on Hardball with Chris Matthews last night. Matthews said, "Somebody in the Democratic Party is putting out an attack sheet on this new justice nominee for the Supreme Court, and the first attack is that he was lenient on the mob back in an '88 case. He let the Lucchese family get off, said he was an embarrassment to the government. Here's a guy that's been tough on crime. Why start off on that issue, Dean?"
DEAN: I didn't put it out, but somebody did so I'll be responsible for it.
MATTHEWS: It was put out by the Democrats, but go on.DEAN: All right. The president put out a sheet this morning, Republican talking points. One of the things he said was that judge Alito was a spectacular prosecutor. Well, it turns out he wasn't quite so spectacular, and he lost some important cases, and one is which that those guys, in that particular case, those guys all got off, 20 of them without even putting up a defense witness. So at least in that particular case, that's an example.
RUSH: You notice how wishy-washy these Democrats are on prosecutors? Prosecutor comes along and indicts Scooter Libby, they love! Why, that's "a prosecutor's prosecutor." Now all of a sudden here's Alito who the Democrats have voted for a hundred to zip twice in the US Senate. He's a lousy prosecutor! Now they're going after Alito. "Maybe he's got mob ties!" That's the purpose of the document. "Maybe he's got mob ties. Alito? Scalito? Lucchese? Maybe he let these guys off maybe he didn't try them; maybe he's got mob tries." I mean, let this stuff flow from their lips, folks. Let it just keep flowing. But there's more to this than meets the eye. Sit tight. Matthews said, "Well, what about the Genovese case, a year later, he won the conviction to put three of those big mob guys away, including the top guy in New Jersey."DEAN: I think it's great. All I'm trying to say is, you know, this guy is not the best prosecutor since sliced bed. Look, here's --
MATTHEWS: You don't sense a little ethnic aspect to this? The fact he's Italian American, they nailed the #1 issue against this guy is mob, that he's weak on the mob. You don't see that?
DEAN: No.
MATTHEWS: You don't see it? I think everybody else does. I see it.
Limbaugh then mentioned the work of RedState.org who uncovered the DNC connection to the anti-Alito document:
Now, one other thing about this Matthews business, because Matthews got this document -- and, by the way, this document was embedded with its creator. Let me see who it was. Yeah, here's the story. It's in the American Spectator.
Kudos to the fellows at Red State and Townhall, who nailed DNC dirty tricksters for their sliming of SCOTUS nominee Samuel Alito. Red State got hold of a Word document from the DNC oppo[sition] researchers, which included embedded data that showed who worked on it. Based on their research, a couple of low level flunkies pulled the dirt together, while one Devorah Adler did the polish. And who might she be? Clinton White House documents reveal that she was one of Bruce Reed's deputies on domestic policy back when the Democrats ran the White House. She served as Associate Director for Health Policy. Now, Adler is plying her Clinton training for Howard Dean. As reported by AmSpecBlog on Monday, Democratic Senate Leader Harry Reid seemed to sense a tidal shift in public opinion and MSM coverage of the Alito nomination. Before noon, he spoke to DNC chairman Dean and asked that the rhetoric on Alito be cooled. Dean, according to DNC sources, declined the invitation to be civil toward an esteemed judge. Now, comes the DNC dirt document, which attempts to slime Alito with charges that he was soft on organized crime and mean to immigrants. See a pattern here?"
Limbaugh then shows are the far-left extremists at MoveOn.org are now controlling the Democrat Party:
Because, remember, Chuck Schumer had a couple staffers. One of them -- I think both of them -- worked at that website that David Brock runs for George Soros, and they trashed and outed the private financial records of the black lieutenant governor in Maryland, Michael Steele, who has since announced his candidacy for the United States Senate, and so here you have Democrats running dirty opposition research organizations designed to slime these nominees and Republican candidates, and they sit around and they talk about the culture of corruption all over the place. But, my friends, here's the pièce de résistance, because as I've told you, the Democratic Party mainstream is now its left wing fringe kooks. It is the people that populate these wacko websites out there, MoveOn.org and others. They're responsible for much of the fund-raising, and thus they are responsible for putting words in the Democrats' mouths, and they are mad as hell. They are mad as hell the Democrats are not anti-war; they're mad as hell that the Democrats did not meet with Cindy Sheehan, for example. They have their own litmus test for their presidential nominee, and it better be one that's anti-war or they're not going to offer their support.
Next Limbaugh goes after the far-left of the far-left Daily Kos who slammed Matthews for exposing the DNC slime document:
So one of these websites is called Daily "Chaos," K-o-s, and some clown posted something about this Matthews document, this DNC document that Matthews was waving around the other day about the sliming of Alito for being soft on the mob, and he says...
"Well, look what we have here. Tim Chapman at Town Hall has the entire Democrat document that Chris Matthews called disgusting and which Republican liars from Drudge on down are using as the basis of their claim that Democrats attacked Alito for being Italian-American. Only one problem. Read the so-called disgusting memo, doesn't say anything like that. Do a search. The word 'Italian' isn't even in it. The whole so-called outrage has been a complete fabrication by Chris Matthews, by Matt Drudge, and by perennially race baiting right. Oh, by all means the memo talks about 'Scalito,' a long-held nickname given to Alito by legal friend and foe alike [sic] to describe his far-right Scalia-like views. And, horror of horrors, one point out of 15 talks about a case where a US attorney, Alito, failed to win convictions of 20 mobsters after the longest criminal trial in US history. It doesn't say anything remotely implying Alito had any connection to the mobsters except prosecuting them and apparently botching the case. So Chris 'fair game' Matthews in addition to being the smarmy sack of pundit crap that we always knew he was, flatly made up..." This is a Democrat website, folks, that you're listening to me read from. "So Chris fair-game Matthews, in addition to being the smarmy sack of pundit crap we always knew he was, flatly made up the part about the Italian American slam in the memo. He lied he put two and to together in his own head came up with mobsters equals Italian equals Alito as his own slam and then sold it as a disgusting Democratic attack. Let the bastard hear about it tomorrow. He fabricated the entire race baiting slam in his own warped head. Ask him why he did it because as an Italian-American I'm interested in hearing that." It goes on and on and on to slam Matthews. Now, this is from the front page of the Daily Kos, taking vicious shots at Chris Matthews. The New York Times gets a break today. This is the Democrat crackup I am talking about. The left wing doesn't even like what its media guys do when they try to be fair, and so Matthews, under a bigger assault from his own buddies than probably you have ever subjected him to.
Now think about it…we have a bunch of far-left extremists controlling the talking points of the Democrats. One of those talking points is how the conservative radicals undermined Harriet Miers. And now we conservative radicals have our ideological extremist...Alito. And that is the story being spread my the MSM. But where is the MSM at today? Will they be exposing the far-left radicals who are behind the DNC slime machine? I doubt it.
And lets not forget who is in charge of the far-left slime machine in South Dakota…Steve Hildebrand and his sliming Hildebrand bloggers.
