Chris Matthews Live: President Obama Had to ‘D@ck Around’ to Pass Stimulus Bill

by J.D. Durkin | 8:09 am, February 26th, 2016

During his post-Town Hall coverage on MSNBC, Hardball host Chris Matthews seems to have slipped up in his vernacular, casually referring to a “schlonging” of a different sort.

Thursday night’s Town Hall featured Matthews and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, and during a post-event panel, Matthews let his true thoughts slip about the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act under President Barack Obama.

Matthews seemed to catch himself and try to adjust, but moved on to discussing Senators Susan Collins and Arlen Specter and the role they played in compromising with the President in 2009 on the stimulus bill in response to the recession:

Let’s talk about Obama. He killed himself to get a stimulus bill. So he had to d@ck around, d@cking around, with people like Susan Collins and Arlen Specter and they whittled him down to $800 billion.

We’re not the only ones who noticed the flub:

In case you’re still unsure if a venerable TV host like Matthews could ever use such crude language, the Hardball host used the same phrase in 2011 to describe the work of policymakers on the debt ceiling.

Watch the above moment in question from MSNBC.

I never liked the guy. Especially when someone is trying to interview him.
But some people make me laugh when they are agitated. He is definitely one of them. :smile:

He was probably thinking of the term "dickering" or bargaining.

Chris Matthews seems to have a propensity for having his comments regarding Obama leading to the genital area.
It wouldn't surprise me if Matthews has Obama's voice playing in the background when he is getting romantic in bed to get a thrill up his leg....kind of like vocal Viagra.

Good..I am not the only one who noticed. I seen him interviewed twice & he even made the late night talk show host (D. Letterman) cringe. He has sex issues.. Creepy

I've always said Washington DC should stop dickering around.
