Chris Matthews Loses Tingle: 'The Steering Wheel Doesn't Control the Car Any More'

On MSNBC’s Morning Joe Wednesday morning, host Joe Scarborough and his regulars trotted out that criticism, and more, but it was Matthews’ criticism that was at least a little bit surprising. TheHardball host began by deflecting the blame onto the President’s Chief of Staff, and other advisors. “In second terms, you get into trouble, and you start promoting deputies to principal positions, and we know how it works,” he began. “You need people around you, a strong government led by a strong chief of staff who can crack the whip.”

“And this is why it’s important to voters,” Matthews continued. “When you go in the voting booth, you only get one vote. You pick Romney or Obama. When you pick Obama, you want to know the steering wheel that you just turned to the left a little bit, you want that to matter. That means you want that president you voted for to run things. That’s the only power you have as a citizen. Pick the person you want to run things, and then they run them.”

He added, “For anybody to run around in Washington and say ‘We don’t run the IRS,’ or ‘We can’t control the Justice Department, and I’m recusing myself,’ they say ‘The steering wheel doesn’t control the car any more.’ The person says ‘I want the person I voted for to be in charge. The only power I have, and you’re telling me I don’t have it? Because you don’t have it. And that is going to really bug people, especially people that care about government doing a good job.”

Well, it's true.

I wonder if any of the liberal morons are rethinking the gun control issue, as well? Maybe they'll actually vet the next potential tyrant with a D in front of his name........too much to ask I'm sure.

Sad part about specifically the IRS & Benghazi scandals is either could have changed the way the last Pres. election swung.

Bingo, especially the IRS scandal. That one is big and growing each day. The crime was bad enough, the cover-up will be ugly once the light of day strikes the truth.

What everyone needs to remember is that the IRS just proved they don't know what CONFIDENTUAL means, when it comes to Conservatives. They targeted them and also leaked their information to liberal bias groups. But that is not the worst thing, what is worse is the IRS will have access to the data base that will contain every Americans medical files due to OBAMACARE. Does anyone really think the people in the IRS can now be trusted to not be snooping and LEAKING medical files on say Tea Party leaders or Conservative/Republican candidates?

Yep people won't forget important issues, I'm sure a Republican will take the WH next election.

most people realize the important issue is the economy, lack of jobs...
and high prices..

and many know Obama is a failure... especially when it comes to creating jobs...

many know that Obama is holding back our energy sector...

and that will not change.. because Obama doesn't know what a job is...





and now more are realizing Richard Nixon was a great president.. :p
