MRCTV Asks MSNBC's Chris Matthews About His Obama Thrills, Tells Them To 'Go To Hell'

Remember when MSNBC’s Chris Matthews said that then- Senator Obama gave him thrills that went up his leg on February 12, 2008?

Well, MRCTV’s Dan Joseph spotted Matthews in the spin room in Las Vegas during the December 15 Republican debate to ask if he still feels that way about President Obama. Matthews told Joseph to “go to hell” (via Newsbusters):

We just wanted to know really quickly, how is your leg?” Joseph asked.

“What leg?” Matthews asked.

“The leg. Is the thrill still there in the leg or is it not?” Joseph asked.

“You can go to hell, OK? Just go to hell. Just leave me alone,” Matthews said, pushing Joseph away. “Just leave me alone. Just leave me alone.”

“Is the leg OK? Are you limping or is it–?” Joseph asked.

Matthews told him he had a “psychological problem” and waved him away.

The publication added that Matthews probably still feels the same way about President Obama since he described his presidency as “immaculate” in July.

He's been immaculate in the presidency. Nobody has accused him of any corruption. His kids are perfect. His wife is perfect. He's done everything that these right-wing white conservatives say we're supposed to be in this country. He's done everything right.

Never change, Chris Matthews. Never change.
