You have asked yourself this question before. Why do people go on the Chris Matthews show, when Chris Matthews does all the talking? Congresswoman Linda Sanchez got her personal dose of Chris on Monday’s Hardball With Chris Matthews, when a question from the host about immigration blossomed into a criticism of the Republican party, a comment, a question another comment and then a question, all by Mr. Matthews… then two more comments.
And when she was finally given a chance to answer the question, the congresswoman was cut off again because Matthews had to make a statement.
Here’s how it all went down;
Matthews
“People that believe in border protection, who believe you can stop somebody from coming into this country by higher towers, or more drones, or more people working there, I think, are right-wingers or idiots.
If you want to work and you’re looking for a job, you’re going to come to America, Congresswoman. You’re going to come in here and you’re going to find a way in; whether you have to take a boat, an airplane, or swim – whatever you have to do, you’re going to get here.
My question is, are we going to have a work permit situation that’s truly enforced so there’ll be no incentive to do that, because you can’t work in the United States unless you’re here legally,” Matthews continued over Sanchez’s repeated attempts to respond.
If we ever have a system like that, we won’t be having this debate 20 or 30 years from now. Your thoughts?
Sanchez;
“Well…”
Matthews had something else to say. Cuts off the congresswoman to add this;
“Because we never stop talking about it.”
Sanchez;
“If you’d let me get a word in edgewise. I will tell you…”
Matthews had something else to say. Cuts off the congresswoman to add this;
“You have all the time in the world to answer my question.”
Exactly which question Chris?
